You know your day isn't going so well when the sky opens up and a neon blue vortex starts to suck you in like so much dust in a Hoover. Let me tell ya, when you need a mount that can fight against an upward current like that, a carpet isn't exactly ideal. No weight to it, you know?. I think our Undead friend, Riliansabre of Eredar, would rather be riding a Drake right about now. Or perhaps a really big rock. Yeah, you comedically large Roomba. Try sucking that up.
Welcome to Ask a Lore Nerd, where each week blogger and columnist Alex Ziebart answers your questions about the lore and history of the World of Warcraft. Ask your questions in the comments section below, and we'll try to answer it in a future edition. Good morning, everyone! My apologies for missing last week's Ask a Lore Nerd, I am apparently very, very bad at time management and I lost track of things while trying to finish furnishing my apartment. We're back in action this week though, so it's all good! Before we get started, I also wanted to remind people that Tokyopop is letting us read Warcraft: Legends for free until the 17th. I know Daniel mentioned it already this morning, but seeing as this is the lore column of the day, I just wanted to mention it again. Just imagine me as the hammer trying to drive this nail into your head. You can read it for free. And now we get the show on the road!
