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...

Skirmish Mistresses of Middle-earth

*VOLUME III SPOILERS* like mother like daughter.. or one in the same??  *VOLUME III SPOILERS*  These screenshots are actually from Tuesday, but I completely forgot about them until I was posting my outfit for this week, and then I'm like "I haven't posted on Lissamay's Airways for a while.." So what have Liss and I been up to lately? Not much. As I took part in beta testing the past two weekends, I actually haven't been on Gladden much recently, and thus Liss and I haven't hung out much in-game lately. the Battle in the Tower.. Liss's favorite skirmish ever. thanks, priestess of flames for the fire  We have skirmed approximately 10 times in the past two days, though. From Dannenglor to Methedras, we have been the queens of skirming. Regular fainting day  It has become officially ingrained upon our memories how much we hate wretched falconers and well, wretched falconers (put shepherd of filth in there somewhere, too.) The past...

Maybe way too many instances in one day

Liss and I decided to have some quite random instance fun, and yes, it was indeed fun. We re-visited the Volume I epic quest instance Fire and Ice (we were helping a friend complete it), and later did Garth Agarwen Barrows. I always seem to forget how much FUN the older instances are. Not saying the newer instances aren't fun, but the old instances just contain so many.. well, memories.  hey, I'm in the campfire. Liss doesn't seem amused.   Fire and Ice, at least for me, was a very scary instance the first time I ever did. At the time, my brother and I (who were on level with the instance) decided to try it, and it didn't end very well. Now being way higher level than the instances, I'm realizing how much fun they are. Now I want to re-do all the Barrow Downs and Garth Agarwen instances :) Waiting for our little friend to start the instance on his part. We were sooo helpful, obviously ;)  Liss and I got to save the day, and kill a Nazgul, which was quite...
