Hello everyone! I know I haven't talked much lately, but I've made it to
Northrend. Until to become a wrecking ball by getting the killing blow on
twenty Alliance enemies, I haven't truly begun to engage the Lich King's
forces. As such, I've decided to take up a hobby - fishing!
First, I learned the ability to track fish! It's like a sixth sense. I just
seem to know where they are! Next I managed to fish in every type of pool in
Outland and every type of junk pool. Why do people leave litter in our
waters, anyways? While doing this I heard of special animals that live in
the water. Legend spoke of a crawdad named Mr. Pinchy who would grant three
wishes to anyone who found him. Strangely, he picks the wishes. I managed to
fish him up in Terokkar Forest, and he gave me a magical crawdad pet for
"my" first wish. I haven't used my other wishes yet.

Next I began to fish in the magical city of Dalaran. I found a giant sewer
rat while fishing in the sewers, and we quickly became friends! I then tried
fishing in the Dalaran fountain, and I found coins that others had thrown in
the water! Each coin contained the wish of the person who threw it. It was
really interesting. I guess I found them all because Jepetto Joybuzz of
Dalaran mailed me a "freshly minted" Titanium Seal of Dalaran for collecting
them all!

Just today I was searching for rare fish in Howling Fjord. In Daggercap Bay
near Valgarde I found a Fangtooth Herring School. Some Alliance guards got
mad at me for fishing too close, so I ran away and came back
more cautiously. I had to use a levitate spell to fish while standing on the
water. Guess what I found?! A Sea Turtle! He's one my best friends now, and
he lets me ride on his back through the water. Now I'll continue searching
for more rare fish. Maybe I'll even catch a rare fish in Ironforge some day!
