Here are 2 short stories I wrote about things I did in World of Warcraft. They are (in chronological order) 7 and 9 paragraphs long. Enjoy them, for I spent much time *coughan30minutestoanhourpercough* writing this.
I started putting footnotes in the 2nd one, but I didn't have that brilliant idea with the 1st, so I'll edit them in later. I'm lazy and it's getting late so that task is delegated to tomorrow or sometime next week. Footnoted items are bolded, have Crimson color, and have ** after them, like this** [/b]to make them OBVIOUSLY NOTICABLE. =)
Comment if you want to.

I was out in the wilderness of Kalimdor, searching for the fabled entrance into Silithus. Supposedly completely enclosed by mountains, at least according to the most recent charts, there should've been no way into it. But other adventurers had braved the lands before me, or so they bragged. So onward I went, on the search for the entrance to Silithus.
I had found myself in Un'Goro Crater, a primal area full of dinosauric lizards, huge insects, and elementals. Among them were large, no, not just large, enormous lizards called Devilsaurs. They were hard to kill and harder to find without a hunter's aid. And there was a king among these lizards - King Mosh.
I had enlisted a hunter into the search for the entrance for Silithus. Someone had sent him to the Cenarion Hold that was supposedly there, no, it probably was. It was well-known that the Druids could fly, even back in the Third War between the races of Azeroth and the Burning Legion. But that would mean that there HAD to be an entrance to Silithus. The maps must be wrong.
The hunter helped me, he found many Devilsaurs for me, which I slew. Their hides were made of the most excellent leather, and there was much profit to be gained from them once sold to the leatherworkers. We slew an array of them, around 6. There were not many Devilsaurs to be found. Then, we stumbled on King Mosh.
King Mosh, King of the Devilsaurs. He was the toughest of the entire bunch, otherwise he wouldn't be king. We tried to take him alone, but we were no match for the might of this Devilsaur, and he knocked us out. We then enlisted the aid of some of the others who were in the area. We tried to kill him again, yet we failed. Hesitant to try again, we enlisted the aid of another - a Druid, of equal power, equally learned of the spells of druids as I was.. A few mishaps occurred before she reached us, but once she did, we were almost ready to take on the King. We strengthened our companions, then began the fight. Then, we defeated King Mosh, at long last!
After we slew the mighty King of Devilsaurs, we continued our quest for the fabled entrance to Silithus. Beforehand, in an inn, I was informed by another that it might be found in the northwestern corner of Un'Goro. I suspected that the path to Silithus lay in Un'Goro, but I was not sure. If the path to Un'Goro from Tanaris was not shown, then maybe a path from Un'Goro to Silithus might not be shown on a map. I headed to the northwestern corner, under the advice given, and we, at long last, made it into the fabled lands of Silithus! The search was over, the path was found.
Once we arrived, we began the search for the Cenarion Hold that rumor said was located in Silithus. We found it in the center of Silithus. I immediately went to the Inn, that was in most towns, exhausted from my work during this long day. I relaxed for awhile, and then went into a bed, ready to rejuvenate and be ready for tomorrow, and the work that would entail.

I was out in the Ghostlands, helping Tranquillien and the elves of Silvermoon** rid the land of the threat of the Scourge. Nasty little critters they are, with rotting limbs and organs, and mere spectral essence. Saving Quel'Thalas** from them was one ardous task, which once undertaken, could not be halted until the glorious finale arrived! And arrived did this glorious finale against the Scourge the the Plague-ridden lands of the Ghostlands.
I had finished killing the two abombinations, Luzran and Knucklerot, the day before. Nasty little beasties they were, with claws for hands on some of their many arms, and a cloud of disease that surrounded them that transplanted the Plague on whatever was close to them. They were difficult to slay, but once slain, they stayed slain, and did not rise again. Luckily the Scourge's monsters could only be resurrected once.
Then I began today, killing monsters on the Dead Scar while I was trying to reach Deatholme, where one of the citizens of Tranquillien gave me a quest to slay some of the Undead in that City of Death. Also, from the nearby Sactum of the Sun, I had also been given a quest, a grievous one that could not be undertaken alone. I had to slay Dar'Khan Damir, the leader of the Scourge in Ghostlands!
Dar'Khan, the bloody traitor! Oh, how the little Blood Elf children shivered at the mere mention of his name! Abandoning his own kingdom, his own land, to join the Scourge. I don't know why, for whilst I was a friend of his, I knew not his heart nor his mind. Maybe it was the promise of eternal life, or of great power, but either way, he gave up his humanity to join the enemy of the Sin'Dorei**! He must be killed at all costs!
I was the advance scout of the group sent by the Farstriders of the Farstrider Enclave and Magisters of the Sanctum of the Sun to eradicate the scum known as Dar'Khan. Many others had attempted to take him, and perished in the attempt. However, my will is steel and my spirit is ever-burning fire! I must perservere for the glory of the Sin'Dorei and the reclaimation of Quel'Thalas! I swear by my bow and sword that Dar'Khan shall fall before the day ends! For the glory of the Sin'Dorei, I shall wage war on Dar'Khan!
We moved into Deatholme, preparing to take Dar'Khan. We were almost all gathered near the enterance of Deatholme, in which Dar'Khan led the Scourge in the Ghostlands. We waited for the last member of the party to join us, then we began the epic battle for the fate of the Ghostlands! May the Sin'Dorei find victory, and may they reclaim Quel'Thalas!
The final party was completely gathered. The Rogue, versed in the ways of stealth, incapitation, and quick slaying. The two Blood Knights**[/b], versed in casting healing spells, and offensive spells that enhanced their weapons temporarily, who would keep the Dar'Khan occupied while the rest of the group killed him. And finally, me, the Ranger**, versed in the ways of bow and sword, who made friends with beasts and excelled at killing from a distance. We marched onward, preparing to enter Deatholme! Dar'Khan shall die for the glory for the Sin'Dorei!
We entered the building, ready to wage war with the leader of the plague of the Ghostlands. He stood inside, waiting for us! He knew we were coming all along, and was ready for us! That's why the enterance was not well guarded, so he could kill us! The bloody traitor and deceiver must die, so the Sin'Dorei may persevere! To battle, my friends! May we slay this menace and sleep in peace finally tonight!
We began the epic battle with the leader of the Scourge. He was difficult, but we managed to kill him. Now the Sin'Dorei of the Ghostlands may sleep in peace, not having to fear an assault from the Scourge. We were victorious, and now I was ready to go lay my head on the pillow and sleep, for now I may rest in peace.
Dar'Khan, my friend, why had you betrayed us? Why, why did you make us have to kill you for the perserverance of the Sin'Dorei?

**Sin'Dorei[/b]: Sin'Dorei is the name of the Blood Elves in their own language. It translates into "Children of the Sun" literally.
**Quel'Thalas: Name of the Blood Elf's Kingdom
**Blood Knights = Paladin, Ranger = Hunter, Blood Elf's name for those classes
**Silvermoon: Silvermoon is the capital city of the Blood Elves, razed in the 3rd War by Arthas for the power of the Sunwell to raise Kel'Thuzad(spelling) as a lich. Once again a thriving city and still capital of the Blood Elves.
I will add more as I write them, and they will be added in the order I wrote them. I hope you enjoyed them.
