The Unforgotten Places project continues and today it is time for Westfall. I sent out Wanilla to do the research once again and here are the results.
Westfall is located to the west of both Elwynn Forest and Duskwood. It saddens me that Westfall is a Defias stronghold and only a few farms and the watchtower on Sentinel Hill are really friendly towards the Alliance. If this would not be enough, being a short trip from Stormwind, Sentinel Hill has become a popular place for the Horde to do hit and runs on.
In the south western part of the area is a small village called Moonbrook that is today controlled by the Defias Brotherhood. The real reason for the Defias to guard this small village seems to be that the main entrance to their base deep inside the Deadmines is located in one of the buildings. There have been many attempts made to root out the Brotherhood from the mines but they always seem to return.
The shoreline is to the most part overrun with murlocs, but then again there are few shores in Azeroth that are free of them so it should not come as a big surprise. We may not like them but most civilized places will pay you to go out there and hunt down a few of them. They usually carry around a clam or two that sometimes can contain pearls.
And if you can live with a few murloc scratches, there are many shipwrecks around the coast that can be explored.
With everything bad comes something good.
There is a good supply of wild animals for both skinning and cooking if you are into that sort of things. I asked Nowind for some skinning details and she says that there is plenty of good material like light leather and light hide. For you miners out there I can tell you that this is a nice place for Copper and Tin. I even heard a rumor in Sentinel Hill about Silver, but I did not find any. At least not yet.
There are two more places I want to include about this Unforgotten Place. The first is the Westfall Lighthouse that can be found in the southwest, straight southwest from Moonbrook. If you have not yet seen a ghost, then meeting Captain Grayson might be a bit scary but I think that it is a good idea to visit him for every adventurer that is starting out. And remember, during childrens week you will probably get to show this place to some of the children of your capital city.
Lastly, if you like good a good lager, you must visit Grimbooze Thunderbrew in the Dagger Hills. This man is a living legend. But remember that he only shares his brew if you bring him resources to continue his work. So remember to pack some hops in your bags.
If you decide that you liked the Thunderbrew Lager, then you may want to visit him again when you have traveled the lands a bit. If he finds you experienced enough he might decide that you can help him with the creation of Thunderbrew's Boot Flask. But be prepared to travel a lot, as the materials needed are not easy to find.
And this was everything we had on Westfall for now. I hope you find this useful and if you decide to visit Grimbooze, be sure to say hello from us.
