Leveling, quests, and music!

Well it has been two days now so I guess I should give a status report on how Kaeja is doing! I sadly couldn't make my original goal of hitting level 20 yesterday since I came down with a bad case of the dizzy gremlins which made me feel, well less then normal. I am however close to my target goal in gold which is currently sitting at 10 out of the 15 I was hoping to get to by 20. It helps that the economy on this server is just a tad wacky as a fellow Blogger pointed out not to long ago.

I have noticed that many of the quests at least in the human areas have me running all over the place just to continue a quest chain (which is quite annoying). Also the quests seem a little too simple compared to the horde starting areas. I remember reading somewhere that the human areas were made first before any other part of the game so most of the quests are going to feel very basic.

Oh and I just wanted to give a shout out to Elite Dragonkin who have given me an amazing welcome into their guild! I wish all guilds had such nice people in it. I especially wanted to give a shout out to Carabella and Ulfrik for the bags/gear. I shall repay your kindness...somehow :-P

Now to go so far off topic we are teetering on the edge of madness! During my leveling I have been listening to two albums which are very complex musically and set the tone for the game/character very nicely. The albums in question are "Unia" by Sonata Arctica, and "Dark Passion Play" by Nightwish. Both are Progressive/Power Metal but the compositions are very deep and have a lot of meaning behind them. My top picks from both albums would be the tracks "Caleb" on Unia and "The Islander" on DPP. Caleb is an ongoing project for Sonata and some day I may get into it. The Islander is just a beautiful folk sounding song that you can get lost listening to and not care, heck I love it so much I added it to this blog so listen to it dang it!

Well time to get back to leveling. Shouldn't take me long to hit 20 now!
