Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is our kingdom.




"What about that shadowy place?"

"Those are just some quilboar. Ignore them, they're jerks."




Back in 2005, my Human Paladin was disconnected while traveling on the boat from Menethil. When I reconnected, I was falling through the earth, like you did back then. I fell for like 20 minutes underneath the world, occasionally seeing trees and mountains and other features. Then, as if in a dream, I was soaring across the sky over a vast green plain dotted with mountains, rivers and the most beautiful scenery imaginable. It was amazing, I'd never seen anything like it in the game. I finally came to rest and then disconnected again. When I reconnected the second time, my body was a little ways out to sea off the coast of Menethil.

For weeks I was convinced I had been transported to some magical secret area. It wasn't until I went exploring outside Theremore that I finally realized the truth of what had happened.

I think about that day all the time and how back then the world was full of such beautiful mystery (and hilarious glitches).
