After having driven into Silverpine Forest last night, I decided to stop at a convenient farmer's cottage. I woke up early in the morning, eager to explore. First thing I found was a field of pumpkins!

There was a lonely Lich floating in the middle of an abandoned field a short distance to the west. Maybe she should ask Arthas out on a date?

After skirting a mine full of spiders, I ended up at the eastern coast of the continent. A wrecked Alliance ship greeted me. Those Alliance sailors need to take some navigation lessons!

Nearby was an undead fisherman. I didn't tell him that, as undead, we didn't need to eat anything, let alone fish!

I headed back east and found the main road again. A very sullen undead named Astor Hadren was in my way. He seemed preoccupied with something...

There was a road leading to a dock to my left, advertising a "Decrepit Ferry". Well, I waited for ten minutes for a ferry to show up, but it never did.

Then I realized that it was pointless to wait for any form of water transport, when I have amazing Frost powers!

I made it to the island, Fenris Isle. There was a scary looking abandoned castle on the island, but it had been overrun by stupid gnolls. I left and drove back over the lake to where I had started from.
Down the road a little bit I ran into a nice Undead village called the Sepulcher. Here I met a very nice Blood Elf named Eraldora. I told her I was on a driving tour of Azeroth and she told me to be careful not to crash!

Down south a little way was an entrance to a dark, fortified town called Pyrewood. It looked foreboding...

Inside was no better. The town was strangely constructed with huge wooden barriers constructed where the ground had been excavated, and the whole place was overrun by Worgen! None of them would even talk to me, so I drove up a winding road leading east...

At the end of the road was a strange stone with a glowing yellow rune, and over a bridge was a giant fortress! I had heard of this place. It is called Shadowfang Keep. I had to go in...

I entered Shadowfang Keep, fought my way through disgusting wolf warrens and jails, and climbed my way up to the top of the ramparts. It was worth it, as there was a very good view...
![]()
Going back inside, I met this giant wolf hound. He wasn't very pleased to see me.
![]()
The final room contained a mad mage named Arugal, who thought he was quite powerful, but he really wasn't.
![]()
After clearing out Shadowfang Keep, I drove back along the main road to the south. A sign pointed to a large township called Ambermill. Nobody here was really friendly, even when I went to the town hall. The major was some kind of Archmage called Ateric. He wouldn't talk to me at all, so I had to kill him.

Wandering around the hills were these poor dumb saps who called themselves "Dalaran Protectors". Apparently nobody had told them that Dalaran had not only been rebuilt, but had been teleported up to Northrend!
![]()
I left Ambermill and its motley crew of Dalaran rejects, and travelled south. My progress was impeded by a giant structure called the Greymane Wall, which I could find no way around or through.

Eventually I gave up and took the road back east. Farewell, Silverpine! I'll miss you!
