"You know, Throgg," Lolegolas said. "I have to admit that you've vastly improved. I understand it's very difficult for plate-wearing people to avoid fire, given the magnetic qualities possessed by Azerothian flame. But in the last few weeks, you've done a remarkable job not jumping into local bonfires."

"It is this," Throgg said, holding up a book labelled WoW Insider. "This is a Strategy Guide. It tells you important stuff like, 'Do not stand in fire,' and, 'There is cool video called BLIND.' It's also got some of the best hair care tips in Azeroth."

"I'm not sure that really qualifies as loot, Throgg," Lolegolas said as he drew a nail buffer across his fingernails. "And certainly not any kind of awesome loot."

"Little elf," Throgg said, "you're the one who brought it up. I'm more surprised you're not all, 'Oh my god, you can read?' Where did you learn commenting skills?"

"I learned it by watching you!" Lolegolas cried plaintively.
