Took Anythe out for an abbreviated session (had to get Ashley's college orientation set up) and still managed to completely finish off Nazril, the Swampy Northern section, land of Blood Trolls. It also happens to be the location of the prison of the Old God, G'ruum (this is the set up for the first raid, as he is what is being "contained" in the Halls of Containment), who is responsible for all the general corruption and undead going on.
I'll be honest, I picked this zone as the first because I thought it would suck the most. I. Hate. Swamp. Biomes. But the whole area had a good cohesive story arc: you're off to stop the blood trolls and recruit lesser sprit gods ("loas") to your cause… and things simply don't go as planned. By the end, I even found myself more sympathetic to those damn turtles.
Anythe's now 114, has two footholds on Kul Tiras, and is starting the Zula-something southern zone. Having an absolute blast. This has gone from a "let's try something new" to me HIGHLY recommending playing one Horde-side character for what is effectively double the content and giving CONTEXT to a lot of the crap we never see Alliance-side.
