Mr. Lekorawtie is suddenly hanging outside the zep towers... i'm guessing that he either has something to do with the upcoming world events or will give the obligatory quest to go to Northrend. What's interesting is that he's an orc and that a search for him via WoWWiki and Google revealed... absolutely nothing.
It occurred to me as i entered UC that i'm not sure i saw Varimathras flapping around last time i was in the Royal Quarter. i decided that i might as well drop in and see what is up with him. Wonder of wonders, but he is gone, just like (reportedly) in the beta, along with another surprise: the new and improved High Elf Sylvanas skin.
i think that she's even taller than last time Lui stood next to her. She looks amazing, though my turned down graphics don't show off her face detailing (i've had to turn my video effects nearly all the way down because my WoW keeps crashing on the PTR due to a graphics driver issue). The amount of detailing TPTB put into her is really sweet, for instance the skulls on her shoulder armor, the tassels on her breastplate (breastmail?), and her armbands. We soon had a little synchronization going on, which is sooo funny. i've got one of the screenshots of her up for my background, and i must emphasize that it's so nice for Sylvanas not to be bouncing around like a Night Elf (so less imposing when she's acting like a bunny rabbit, though there is that one Cottontail... RUN AWAY!!!!).
The Ebon Hold is indeed hanging over Light's Hope Chapel, but even when i turned the video effects back up there wasn't much to see. Even so, it was exciting, and i half expected to suddenly be surrounded by a bunch of Death Knights just like in a beta video i saw a couple of weeks ago. i wish i had a beta key and could test out a death knight, though i can't decide if i want to make her undead or a blood elf with pale high elf coloring. Either way, changes are starting to come quickly, and Wrath is just around the corner.
