Standing up, Eldrian pondered for a second if he was going to actually participate in the loser bracket for the spear matches. After a few seconds, he shook his head, 'Not worth the time.'
While he would like to get the rewards, they were not nearly good enough, he would rather have more time for the quest he was trying to finally finish. The rewards from the quest were far better than the individual matches.
However, it was still far too early to log back in. Instead, Eldrian browsed the forums looking for inspiration about magic or the undead. Unfortunately, nothing there piqued his interest in those areas even after hours of browsing. There were a few off-topic things that were interesting, but Eldrian was determined to stay focused.
