sadness..

Today.. it should have been a great day. I finally dinged towards 71!! My pet even cheered at me! (or was it a growl? dunno, he was kinda hungry). So with the new land up in the north, the class trainers thought it would be a great idea to train their padawans at each level!

Me being happy at that moment took the boat from valgarde back to menethil. Pff that orca in the water was making ImbaSimba hungry.. though I did not give him the pleasure of the kill.. the hammerhead sharks were looking nasty towards me :S

Finally arriving in Ironforge, I ran as fast as I could to the hunter trainer.. Only to see the price he was charging me to learn new skills. 27g per new skill. YES TWENTY SEVEN GOLD! and there were four new skills to be learned. Yes I learned them all, but it sure did hurt my wallet.

So I went to the AH to have a sneakpeak at some lower level herbs. Yes I took up inscription, but being still a nub at that profession, i was willing to raise it. I need herbs to mill for that. I could not believe my eyes.. 6g for a stack of silverleaf. YES SIX GOLD FOR TWENTY SILVERLEAFS! No I didn't take them. I would rather run circles in Teldrassil and enjoy the scenery while ninja-ing all the herbs from younglings learning the game there.

Is Azeroth really going materialistic? Is it all about the gold? What more can I expect? Or has it always been like this and have I been blind? My mood took a swing..
