So, yeah, I play Heroes of Legend, y’know, the MMO. I’m not like obsessed or addicted or anything. It’s just a game. Anyway, there was this girl in my guild who I really liked because she was funny and nerdy and a great healer. Of course, my mates thought it was hilarious I was into someone I’d met online. And they thought it was even more hilarious when she turned out to be a boy IRL. But the joke’s on them because I still really like him. And now that we’re together, it’s going pretty well. Except sometimes I think Kit—that’s his name, sorry I didn’t mention that—spends way too much time in HoL. I know he has friends in the guild, but he has me now, and my friends, and everyone knows people you meet online aren’t real. I mean. Not Kit. Kit's real. Obviously. Oh, I’m Drew, by the way. This is sort of my story. About how I messed up some stuff and figured out some stuff. And fell in love and stuff.

100 stars to this book, which, like the loading screen to the vanilla part of the game, brought back an intense nostalgia (though I never want to ever do an opera event ever again).
All I know is, in *my* day, you had to get a *key* to go into Upper Blackrock Spire, and this book took me right back there to when my evening phrase to my children was, "Shh, mommy's raiding."
I also had a friend I fished with in Azshara - it didn't lead to romance but he was a nice guy and we caught a lot of storm lobsters together. (RIP that part of Azshara, which is gone now).
Lastly, as a person who soloed the quest for Li'l Tarecgosa (OMG it was satisfying), I deeply, deeply appreciate the romantic gesture at the end.
listen i totally get why this might not be everyone’s cup of tea okay, but it was mine and i’m 5 ⭐️ ing the shit out of this because the comfort this book brought me is unimaginable and i don’t know if i’ll ever feel like that again in my lifetime SO LET ME ENJOY IT IN PEACE
