Thinking back on the countless hours I spent in places like Blackburrow, Crushbone, Mistmoore, Highpass, Sol a/b, Guk, Karnor's, Chardok, and more, I somehow feel that my favorite place is actually one I spent very little time in:
The library in Sleeper's with the scholarly wyverns looking at globes of Norrath.
I always thought that put a bit of perspective on exactly what path your average EQ raider was going down. There are these moments they throw in every now and then to make you ask yourself what your goal in killing all of these powerful creatures is anyway. It's all fun and games when we kill goblins and kobolds, but what happens when you're killing extremely smart and cognizant creatures at the request of a crazy dragon-ghost who wants to awaken a pissed off uberdragon that might just destroy the world? Even most dark elves would object to that kind of madness.
Hell, I still couldn't even kill Klandi with a good conscience years later - and he was practically asking for it. But he did have awesome dialogue... "Oi, what is this? A gnome, if my tired old eyes aren't mistaken."
