This quest is frustrating. It says to kill an animal around the Borean Tundra. I did just that. I wasn't getting covered in blood. The deer by Kaskala didn't work. The moth by Warsong Hold didn't work. Finally got to Lake Kum'uya. Killed a mammoth. Low and behold. The blood splattered on me. It would have been easier if they could have marked where the animal should be on the map like any other quest objectives. *sigh* Yes, I did check WoWhead's info on it.
So for the benefit of others who get as easily frustrated as I did for a quest that should be easy, the location coordinates are between 54:44 and 53:44 by Lake Kum'uya.

At Last
After painstakingly running Zereuwk through Scholomance, the Cadaverous Gloves and Walkers dropped off from Lady Illucia Barov and Lord Alexei Barov respectively. Why only now, you ask? I lost these from a hacker, who managed to kill all my characters and sold my items. Blizzard managed to recover most of them except Zarekius (Night Elf Male Priest), Palisokeja (Troll Female Hunter), Xesus (Undead Male Warrior), Amoofa (Tauren Female Shaman) and Evilynne (Orc Female Warlock).
After purchasing the Blizzard Token, I never had that problem again. I was happy to find out that Blizzard had returned the Tier 1 armor to the PvP Quartermaster after the announcement of Cataclysm. I was reluctant at first because the new gear looked really fantastic. I did miss my well-earned Tier 1 gear. The longing was too great. I got them. Needless to say, I earned it much easier than I did the last time.
With Mist of Pandaria on it's way, I'm not sure I'll be able to spend a lot of time to get the latest and greatest PvP gear. I'll be behind again like the last couple of times they updated the patch. It's all well and good, though. I'm not in a hurry.
The achievements are what makes it fun. I discovered where the mice were hiding, especially the locusts. One might ask why I need so many characters. I did want to stick to one. So many people out there were so horrible at nit-picking, I decided to create other characters just to get a break from them.
Anyway, that's all well in the past now. It would be difficult to get other people, who have the same schedule I do just to get into a dungeon; let alone a raid. Battlegrounds are notorious; especially players who run around me like a maniac because they can handle being dizzy. I can't. I have motion sickness. One battleground is enough to make me hurl. I'm just grateful Blizzard designed Grizzly Hills for people like me who wants to PvP without the madness. That's only if I'm playing on Zere. It's a different story when I'm on my other characters. They can run around all they like, but they can't run when they've been cursed and hexed to the nth power. *Evil laugh*
As for quests, it all depends. I've played them for so long, I know which ones to ignore. I'm having Zere try for the Lore Master Achievement. Finding old quests isn't easy as it sounds. Flying can only take you so long until you've realized you've been flying for 2 hours. It felt like a minute, but if you're not paying attention to the time on your computer, you'll end up wondering why you're suddenly hungry. Don't worry. I haven't done that in a long time. Ever since I came back to playing WoW, I kept the screen as a windowed view.
Things have been better since then. I'm not as stressed as I used to. If I don't like the feel of the battleground, the dungeon group or the quest, there's always fishing, cooking, mining, picking flowers and skinning to do. I would like to pick up fishing one day. Just go outdoors, by the bank of the river or a lake and start a cast and wait for the fish to get the bait.
Yes, I've rambled you to death. If you've managed to finish reading this, you've definitely got the idea I'd filled you in for the whole summer.
Enjoy.

Bwemba in my personal space
I don't know about you, but I was trying to rescue some dwarves from zombies. Bwemba's spirit happens to follow me everywhere I go. I know she's part of the quest, but does she really have to be on top of my character's personal space? Come on, Blizzard!
I rarely complain. This was enough to annoy the hell out of me. Seriously. At least the pet and minions move away after I'm done attacking whenever I'm playing with my hunters or warlocks. This particular one, does not. I get it. She's an apparition. Still, would it kill Blizzard to move her a tad from my character's personal space?

Some Good Will Come
A Panther cub? I don't know whether to feel happy or sad. I was following this quest chain, Follow that Cat. By the time I got there, the giant cat, Mauti attacked me. Naturally, I had to defend myself.
I found Grent Direhammer, who wanted this cat dead, in bad shape at Mauti's lair. There was a panther cub pawing at his feet. After I buried Grent with his boots, the cub looked at me with such longing. I felt really bad killing Mauti. I'm not sure whether or not Mauti was male or female. It is still the cub's parent. I had no other choice, but to adopt it.
I had a small emotional break down. However, I do know that this cub is in good hands. This is going to take a toll on me until the end of my days. This is the only adoption I ever felt guilty for. Silly hot-headed dwarf.
