If Stonetalon wins Most Improved, its sister zone of Ashenvale probably wins Biggest Downgrade! In this episode we talk about lore, expansiveness, tone, imperialism, Lovecraft references and more as we dive into Ashenval

Hey, we've done ten episodes! Today the three of us talk about Westfall, about the nature of statehood, a land left to dust, and revenge.
Our horrid defiances of tragedy and nature enter their second zone! Talks of war, colonialism, werewolves, and incredibly underwritten villains ahoy after our lovely return to WoWed By Zones!

Ari and Torin are joined by a wild sister! Eowyn joins us for the rest of our journey as we enter the brutal land of Durotar, where we talk about patriotism, worldbuilding, and (spoiler alert) a damn fine zone.
In their first foray into the land of Azeroth, Ari and Torin take on the wintry wasteland of Dun Morogh, where dwarves and gnomes start their journeys, discussing topics as varied as vibes, structure, and colonialism.
