Okay let's go, people!

Welcome to the Howling Fjord where the Wetland's ship has decided to leave me stranded mid air above a pool of sharks that I'm one-shot to.
The irony of me complaining when my original intent was to get myself into exactly this kind of situation is not lost on me.
However, I strangely feel more at ease when I got only myself to blame.
If only that were to help me stay grounded...
With that bad dad pun out of the way, let's dive right into the next!
{The adventures of Tengelmann - Chapter Espresso Macchiato}
When it comes to cultural influences in western Europe, the US has been no. 1 for the longest time.
Though both middle and far eastern influences are catching up rapidly, with Korea being one of the top contenders.
Much to my delight, I must say, since they've delivered both funky music that I'm not ashamed to openly admit I enjoy - and dramatic soap operas like the ones my abuelita used to watch.
And there's something included for everybody.
For example, There's also male equivalents.
They have the same body structure, voice and make-up, but they also have these haircuts that would get you bullied beyond belief at school or at your workplace.
Though what am I even on about with this, you ask?
And what does it have to do with Warcraft?
Bare with me, I'll get there in a minute.
For now, I'd like to set focus on the fact that a few chapters before, I've promised you a second iteration of the Steamy Romance novel saga.
It turns out that you need a rogue to pickpocket these out of the inventories of certain NPCs.

After a long time looking, I was able to find a rogue willing to do the job after receiving a bucket load of side eyes while asking around.
People thought I was some kind of weirdo.
Can you believe that?


Luckily, Contextual over here is both highly motivated and damn good at her job.
Possibly also bored out of her mind, as is the case with many Lordaeron players.

Which is also much to my delight!
I don't think people would bother as much with me on Onyxia or Icecrown where people are just so busy.
The social aspect is really what makes Lordaeron stand out.
Ah, the faces of joy and excitement!
So, without further ado, let's have a look at these bad boys.
This one is only two pages long, but I'm more of a quality over quantity kinda guy anyways.
Though how's this story going to play out if the girl is playing hard to get already?

Nawwww, cute!
Now this is one emphasizes the romance aspect that I like to see!
In the previews Romance Novel chapter, we were discussing the trend of dark romance, but this story tends to a more tender approach where a simple yet special kiss forms the climax.
This is what I meant earlier when I mentioned the influence of K-dramas in the world of warcraft.
And the plot not advancing from this point forth is also a nice touch.
Although I could go without.

Compare that to the romance dramas of the west, especially here in Goldshire, we do see quite a large difference in... subtlety... amongst other things.
Anyhow, we still got another book to review, so let's get right into it!
So this is a story about a woman - probably a bloodelf rogue - named Ah' Tusa and as I've now noticed, the same male protagonist as in the other two books.
What a player! I swear, anyone can call themselves a paladin nowadays...
Be it as it may, she seems to be nervous while wandering around the foreign or even hostile environment that is the deeprun tram.
It's a two page story, so let's see where this initially uncomfortable encounter leads.

Yeah, I'm going to discard this book from the rating entirely.
This is absolutely not what I've been searching for.
I'd like to distract myself from this by reading the last book in line.
However...


The fourth book is not as easy to get one's hands on as the others.
Why? Because you need to pickpocket a boss from the Trial of the Champions dungeon.
Not the easiest task, I would say.
And so far, I haven't been able to get my hands on it.
But One day, I'll be here to review it for sure!
