Stonetalon Peak
We decided to take care of a couple of quests around Stonetalon, so from Astranaar we flew there directly. Once there we started by exploring the area around the 'town' - mostly to find ore deposits - before heading south down the road.
There's a small lake not too far to the south and an area just to the west is infested with Pridewings. Quest #1 was to gather twelve Pridewing venom sacs. This took a fair amount of time because only perhaps one in two or three would actually drop a sac. We eventually got our quota and we'll have to take those back to Astranaar at some point.
The plan then was to continue south to the larger lake to whack Venture Company goblins, but we got a little sidetracked when we went to the west side of the trail to explore, and found ourselves in the Charred Vale. As it happens we have a quest here too - to knock down seven each of the Bloodfury Harpies, Ambushers, Slayers and Roguefeathers that are all over the place. This was actually pretty tough; we both got wiped a time or two, not least because the Bloodfuries aren't the only things around that area - there are Chimerae and other things around. More than once Kate got surrounded by Bloodfuries and I wasn't able to help because of being under attack myself, and on one occasion I got was attacked by a Chimera, a big lizard and some kind of living rock elemental all at once.
We ran out of time before we'd got even half our quota on this quest, so we'll have to return to finish up. We made our way to The Exodar to get equipment repaired and so on, and while we were there we set the inn as home base - with so little of any use in Stonetalon we decided that having it as home was rather pointless.
Still, a check of the map shows that we've mapped almost the entire Stonetalon region, with perhaps one small area in the far southeast remaining. We should have no trouble getting another level each while we finish up these handful of quests, then I think we should be in shape to return to Astranaar and continue with the quests we have in Darkshore and Ashenvale, as well as exploring the southern and eastern parts of the area.
