"I had fallen asleep a few minutes after our conversation had ended."It turned out he had been right about how long it would take us to reach our destination.
I woke up from sleep when I felt like the ground under me was shaking.What he had called his house came into sight by dusk.buy wow gold.
Except that it wasn't ground, it was fur.It was a small round cottage, just the kind of a place where a single person has just enough room to live.
I sat up and realized I was riding a gray bear in the middle of a forest I had never seen before.It took me only a few moments to realize that the whole building was actually just a massive tree stump carved hollow, with a door and a window or two.wow eu.
The animal trotted forward as if nothing happened, up until the moment I fell off onto a soft patch of grass.The only seemingly separate element of the building was a small chimney, which rose from the middle of the roof.
To my surprise, the bear immediately noticed and turned around to face me.To my surprise, there was also a small but colorful flowerbed next to the door, by the wall.
However, the thing I liked most about the place, was the fact that there was a small crystal-clear pond right behind the cabin.
""It might not quite live up to your expectations, but I think you'll find it - if not a place to call home - then at least a good place to live in.""
I nodded at him as he opened the door and stepped inside; I was quite pleased with what I had seen so far.or wow.
Then something even more bizarre happened.The inside of the cottage was essentially made up of one big room split by a wall, so that the smaller side had enough space to house a stove and a few cupboards - everything a small, one-man kitchen needed.

A green glow radiated from the bear's fur.The larger side had just five pieces of furniture: a large cupboard on the back wall, most likely where he kept his clothes, a round table with a lantern in the middle and a simple chair next to it, a cushioned, most comfortable-looking large chair in the corner of the room and finally, a large, full bookshelf on another wall.wow honor leveling.
Then it's front paws looked like they started to melt away, and the rest of it's body grew tall and slim..But the very first thing that I couldn't help noticing about the inside of the cottage, was the overwhelming smell of wood.
In a matter of seconds, the old druid was standing in front of me with that friendly smile of his.
""Ah, good morning! I see you finally woke up.Again the old druid seemed to have read my thoughts on the matter.
""Oh, don't mind the smell.wow eu.
I hope I didn't startle you too badly, but you fell asleep along the way and I didn't want to wake you up.You won't even notice it after a week or two.""
While saying that, he dropped his sack of supplies he had been carrying on the floor under the table and went over to open another door on the far side of the room.
Welcome to Ashenvale forest.""
I rubbed my eyes and looked around in slight confusion.Beyond it opened a view to a small 'backyard' by the pond.
I had slept an entire day.It was actually just a patch of grass that looked well-cared for, bordered, on the right by what looked like another flowerbed, but it had everything from minuscule flowers to large berry bushes and small trees growing in it, and on the left, by an impassable pile of rocks, which I realized to be a cradle where all the water of the pond was coming from.
As I went out there, the old druid waved his hand in the direction of the plantation.
""That's where I get most of my food, in case you were wondering.

---

""How do you like the sights.A lot of those things wouldn't normally grow in a place like this, but, well...let's just say that being a druid makes some things in life a lot easier"", he said with a cunning smile on his face.
""I've got pretty much everything from moonberries to bananas and potatoes growing in there, feel free to try them anytime you like.
""
I was downright amazed by the amount of wildlife around me, but I couldn't really find any words do describe it.Now if you'll excuse me..."", he said and headed back inside, only to return a few seconds later with the bag he'd dropped earlier.
""I got these for you from Darnassus while you were sleeping"", he said while pulling seemingly random pieces of clothing from the bag.
"
.
I found the surroundings both calming and exciting.
""I hate to rush, but we should keep moving.
We can reach my house by twilight.
And perhaps I can tell you a little something on the way.""
So we continued the journey on foot.
Along the way, I found it surprisingly pleasant to walk in the wild forest barefooted.
The old druid told me many things about the world and it's history that I hadn't known before, like that there was a continent called Northrend, which was ruled by some dark character called the lich king and the fact that the orcs were not originally from this world.
Funny how little I knew about the world back then.
Not only was I listening to him with both of my ears, my other senses were fixed on taking in every possible bit of the surrounding woods: every last breeze of warm air, and the feeling of grass and moss slipping between my toes every now and then.
I had to admit to myself, I had started to feel better again.
By the time he got to telling me about the cenarion circle and other druids in the world, I started to ask questions.
""Where are all the other druids.
""
""All over the world, really.
Some remain in Darnassus or Moonglade, focusing on all kinds of research.
Others have been called to battlefronts, like the one in Silithus.
And then there are those who choose not to follow any governing power, but instead roam the lands freely, lending their aid whenever they see fit.""
""Are you one of those traveling druids.
""
""No, I'm a bit too old for that.
But perhaps you'll do it for me one day"", he said and winked at me.
After that we spent a long while walking and talking about all kinds of things in the world.
