Truth is, I really hate dragons (and winding paths).

This is a documentation of me desperately trying to avoid the
darn drakes.
 The land of Enedwaith... is well, versatile. Liss decided to catch up on the epic quests and so we did them together, and it was quite an adventure.

We encountered many dangerous things, such as hostile brigands of sorts, frustrated Dunlendings, and gwahir (dragons), tons of gwahir.
In Liss's words: "The deer is drowning."

Super pretty screenshot from the high reaches of Enedwaith.

We were trying to match. It didn't really work..

There was this old library we found, and I completely freaked out (Liss can
tell the story... she found it quite funny.)
 Today's adventures revolve around Volume III, books 3 and 4 (though only the end of book 3, and the beginning of book 4.)

We swam through a lot of rivers, saw a possibly drowning deer, and ran up a lot of cliffs, all the while turning in circles because my quest tracker was confusing me.
"I'm coming, mother!" We were heading deeper into Dunland, and well..
having a guardian with a Guardian's Promise whistle is helpful.

Thumbs up for questing with Liss.
While on the way to complete one of the quests, we stopped for a breather, and discovered an absolutely beautiful place to take pictures of the valley below. It was quite breathtaking, and my "I love beautiful valleys" radar was on high.

Later, once we got up the winding path, we discovered a certain location that contained a LOT of books, and me, being the book nerd that I am, completely freaked out. It was the first actual library (other than Elrond's in Rivendell) that I remember seeing in Middle-earth, and to be honest, it was prettier than Elrond's Library.

After finishing up the books of Volume III that take place in Enedwaith, we headed into Dunland for the next part of the quests. I can smell Isengard! We met a couple interesting people along the way, including a captured villager, a very creepy old pyromaniac woman who tasked us with burning things, and some guy who threw a rock at a Ranger's ear.

All in all, this adventure of Lissamay's and Makaia's was very adventurous and entertaining.

It is impossible to not shiver in Forochel

Hello, this is Makaia. For quite a while now, over six months, I have been playing LOTRO, alongside a lovely lady named Lissamay. She is super fun to play with, and is Makaia's adopted mother. She also (I think) likes to port me many places around Middle-earth, and we skirm tons. She also escorts me around when I need help with screenshots for my cosmetic blog, or when I just feel like going in danger (like today, when we skirted three warbands in Rohan... maybe a bad idea when I'm level 64?). A while ago, I told her that she runs Lissamay's Airways, of which its slogan is "porting you near and far around Middle-earth, for a low fee. Unless you're Makaia, then I'll do it for free 24/7", which is basically true. With Liss's permission, I thought to start this blog, and record our silly adventures, through screenshots, and humorous stories. Our never-ending This Girl is On Fire joke.  Liss and her fabulous warsteed. I suppose I need to fin...

We're back..!!

After quite a hiatus from playing with one another (due to schedules and such).. LISSAIA (it seems our [friend] ship name that I made up on the spot.. don't you dare judge) IS BACK!! We spent a good deal of today's playing time catching up, but then we ended up killing some war-bands in eastern Rohan and it was loads of fun. I completely forgot to take screenshots until I was just about to log off.. but I think the screenie turned out well.. Makaia on left (mounted on Alderi), Lissamay on right (mounted on Calista). -Mak

Tales from long ago..

I took the screenie to document the bug in Bree, but this also shows Liss and I, plus Liss's friend Jras.  I was reviewing my screenshots, and I came across a few that documented Liss and I's long running friendship. To be honest, I'm almost embarrassed to post these, but only due to my absolute horrid screenshot taking skills. These demonstrate the day when I was scared to death of Evendim.. um, that was weird.  I was scared of Evendim... oookay These screenshots show though how long Liss and I have been playing, and I will continue to say I really enjoy playing with her. But oh, how I don't miss the days of miss-matched cosmetics and low levels.  Ah, I miss Volume I epic quests.  -Makaia
