MODNAHRIA FINDS A COOKIE TREASURE MAP (WITH GOBLIN SPIT) AND PUPPY GETS A NEW AIM IN LIFE

I was out playing in Un Goro with my Haven friends when Modnahria said that she'd heard about some secret cookie location in Fire Plume Ridge. She told us that she'd been killing goblins in Booty Bay and, after looting one of them, found a cookie treasure map with a big crumbly 'X' that was marked in very old brown goblin spit and had obviously belonged to The Goblin Workshop. The thought of cookie treasure made us all dribble as well and we had to clean each other's guild tabards with grass, although I think Puppy accidentally smeared a bit of dino poo on his. I also made a mental note to ask Parsnip, our guild leader, whether some of us could have temporary plastic tabards we could keep in our pockets for when we had trouble controlling our slaver glands.

Anyway, we decided to hunt out the cookies so we prepared ourselves by punching each other playfully on the arm until that person said, 'Ow', then we'd punch them harder. Modnahria was in charge as she's the biggest, followed by the rest of us - me, Puppy, Vororth, Celimka, and Smurfy (as he'd never tried cookies before). On the way to Fire Plume Ridge we killed some stuff like big dinosaurs and we all decided we'd like to see Jurassic Park on the big screen after tea.


We pretended we were in Jurassic Park

As we started to climb up Fire Plume Ridge, we got hotter and hotter and Modnahria took all her clothes off!! I was quite shocked and a tiny bit jealous as Modnahria has long legs and I don't but I felt better when Puppy took his clothes off. He's a short ass as well although his muscles are quite nice and his head is the same colour as the rest of his body. I did find it disconcerting though when he ran around going /choo choo! (and his yellow underpants nearly fell down round his ankles).



Puppy and Modnahria take their clothes off

As Vororth ran away to escape being forced to take his clothes off, Celimka noticed his shield and exclaimed how great it was. I sometimes don't like to stand behind Vororth as I find his shield quite hypnotising. It spins round and round and I bet he really stole it off a car as it looks like a car wheel trim. Anyway, Modnahria and I changed into furbolgs as we thought it would make more sense when sniffing for cookies. Puppy, being a very brave adventurer, decided to lead the way from that point, even though he wasn't sure where he was going. He didn't tell us til later that he was following furbolg droppings but that they'd stopped at a certain point and then nothing .... so he said he'd used a 'Process of Extrapolation' to find the cave. It had lots of letters so it was obviously a very clever method to use and he said he'd read about it in 'Bear Faced Cheek' magazine last month.

When we got to the top of the mountain, there were some fire elementals (including some bigguns) that we had to kill and that didn't take long at all because we kick ass. Puppy led us to the cave at the top of the ridge and we all stepped inside not knowing what to expect. Suddenly Modnahria shouted, 'the secret cookie box!' and pointed with her big furry fingers towards a small chest on a shelf behind us. Everyone ran towards it at the same time except me because I was too much in awe of the special cookie chest.



The secret cookie box is found!

In fact, Puppy got there first even though his little legs had problems getting up on to the ledge. Modnahria said that she wanted Puppy to go and stand by me as she was sure there might be a spring trap attached to the cookie chest. She did have a lot of drool hanging from her mouth and I did worry whether she might shake her head like dogs do sometimes. Just to be safe I momentarily closed my eyes and mouth. When I reopened them, I noticed that Modnahria jaws were clean and two small puddles had appeared in front of her back paws.


Modnahria takes charge

Both Celimka and Vororth helped Puppy to get down off the ledge. Vororth bent over as Puppy skipped on to his back and then he leapt into Celimka's arms who then put him on the floor. As Modnahria tinkered with the cookie chest the cave went quiet aside from the occasional sniffing and scratching noise made by her as she used special tests to check for traps. Poor Smurfy couldn't handle the pressure and had to run round the cave at right angles.


Opening the cookie chest

Instead of a *ping!*, we heard a *cracksplinter* noise as the lid collapsed off to the side of the chest. We noticed a small tear appear at the corner of Modnahria's eyes and she couldn't even bring herself to say, 'Rawr'. The cookies had gone. But where? There were only a few crumbles left so either the goblin who owned the map had eaten them or they'd been .... gasp! .... stolen! Modnahria told us she was taking the chest home as she had some special forensic cookie equipment that would tell her whether goblins had taken the cookies by checking for goblin drool.

In the meantime, I went over to talk to my friend Puppy who was upset too. It'd been ages since he'd had a cookie. Poor Celimka had never had cookies before and so we all felt particularly upset when she started crying like a baby with a slapped bottom. It was Vororth who cheered the group up by saying that we would carry on the search for cookies. He said that because we'd got this close then we mustn't lose hope. At that point we looked out of the cave and the sun rose above the Un Goro crater with a big smile on it's face and everybody sighed and felt very cheesy.


Puppy vows to help lead the cookie cause. Brave Puppy!

Puppy turned to the group and said, "I've decided that I'm going to start a new project based on my superior path finding skills." "More like sniffing out furbolg poo," I muttered. Puppy politely ignored me and continued to us that he would do what he could find the perpetrators and find the greatest cookies in all the land.

He said he'd call it - The Search for Cookies and Truth.

Everybody thanked Puppy and then we all hearthstoned back to the Ironforge Inn to have a burping competition with Dwarven Ale and Nogginfogger chasers we'd picked up on the way to Un Goro. Rawr!
