You should have at least put WoW in the title :D.
Anyway, once again I'm reminded of how similar the WW "before history" story is to Silmarillion. Of course, it's rather obvious what the story of the game is based off of :D.
I'm still reading it, but it's nice to see a bunch of extra info I hadn't seen before. I had sorta assumed the hatred between high elves and trolls was because the trolls were yet another offshoot of that race that had been twisted by some dark source or something. It would seem they aren't related to the elves at all though. Eh, it's an interesting read anyway.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
