The Pantheon made the only decision they could rightfully make when they chose to imprison the Old Gods. The death of Y’shaarj proved that trying to remove the others would only further endanger and possibly kill Azeroth’s world-soul — and that was the last thing the Titans wanted. But in imprisoning the Old Gods, the Titans inadvertently changed the course of evolution on Azeroth for good.

The Curse of Flesh

Although the Well of Eternity was essentially a wound, it was also a blessing to the creatures that roamed Azeroth’s surface. The mysterious, potent energies radiating from the Well fostered and hastened growth and evolution across the world. The titan-forged left behind to tend to the world helped shape and foster that life, but they weren’t immune from evolution themselves.

When the Pantheon was slain by Sargeras, Norgannon cast a spell that sent their spirits, and the last of their powers, to Azeroth. There, they inhabited the keepers that watched over the prisons of the Old Gods. Their arrival caused a great disturbance in the keepers, who didn’t realize what had happened. Yogg Saron took advantage of the disturbance, weakening his jailers and making an escape. From there, the Old God tainted the Forge of Wills with the Curse of Flesh.

The Feast of Winter Veil is a festive time of year during which players can sample delicious festive treats, playfully toss snowballs, and receive special holiday gifts! The Feast of Winter Veil is a reference to the end-of-year seasonal holiday of Christmas, featuring Greatfather Winter as an in-game version of Santa Claus.

During the Feast of Winter Veil players are sent on various quests, involving such adventures as rescuing a stolen reindeer and defeating Racksum Greep in order to retrieve a lost shipment of goodies! There are a number of special festival-only foods which players can purchase or prepare, ranging from delicious Gingerbread Cookie to the maybe-not-quite-so-delicious Graccu’s Mince Meat Fruitcake! As the festival nears its end, on the morning of December 25th (corresponding with Christmas Day) players can retrieve festive gifts from beneath tall, decorated trees found in Orgrimmar or Ironforge. These gifts contain seasonal, festival-only items and always includes a special item available only during that year’s festival!

To be successful, a home office needs to be both functional and efficient. You are going to be working in this environment for several hours each day so it is important that you make it as comfortable as possible. You can design a practical and comfortable home office by taking a few steps towards finding the right space, furnishing it, and making it attractive and efficient.

Separate your workspace from the rest of your home. Create a barrier between yourself and the rest of your household. Store everything you need for your work in your office so you can be efficient in your space. Keep everything work related out of the rest of your home to help you maintain a work-life balance. Even if you live alone, you need a space that can help you create a work-life balance.

Make the most of your space. If you live in an apartment or small home without an extra room, you can still set up an efficient home office. Designate any separate space you can exclusively for work. This is better than working from your couch or bed.

  • Carve out a workspace in your closet by removing the doors and installing a small table, chair, shelves, and good lighting.
  • Put a desk, chair, shelving, and light sources in a corner of your kitchen or another room in the house.
  • Avoid working from your bedroom to maintain the best sense of work-life balance.
