B2’s Excellent Adventure / DH’s lost on (the coast of) Xanadu

Yesterday was the big day (and also for my RL neighbors to shoot off their loud ass fireworks). But, it’s the 4th and to be expected.
So after (nearly) forgetting about B2 (twice.. once when leaving home and the other after crossing over to Xan), we were off! On the Xan community map, I marked out a spot to dock (that connects to the main highway system). Priority #1 is to get to a public mine, and get B2’s ML up to 21.00. Then he can drive my wagon while I reposition my boat.
I was originally planning to head alllllll the way up north to Glasshollow, but since Linton (that we had arrived at) has a public mine just north of the market, I decided to drop him off here and explore the area while he grinded.
I crossed this random long arch stone bridge in the middle of the desert (further north up the road) and groomed every animal I saw. And then I saw something that looked like it was right out of a Bob Ross painting (with the dead horse just to the right, a ‘happy little accident’). Buried it since taking the shot.
If Valrei had some rings around it, you’d swear the planet that Wurm is part of was an alien planet. I felt like I could just stay there past Solset, and admire the beauty that is Xanadu. There’s also a small’ish lake (seen in this shot, with Valrei setting below the horizon). It’s things like this, what keeps me playing.
Nearly 45 minutes to an hour later, B2 had finally reached the 21.00 ML milestone! Now he can drive my wagon around! I also saw that with him driving, he can take me to an animal that doesn’t flee when they see the player (bulls, rams, and horses), and I can groom it while in the passenger seat (and since I’m not driving, I won’t have stamina to focus on (to get the fastest groom)). The plan worked perfectly, while I also instructed B2 to get back to the boat.

Back at the boat, I told B2 to plot a course for Lormere while I head to where I originally parked (when I first explored the server). I was pretty sure he would get there first, and I was right (and then some)… the reason being, of (DH) trying to finding a specific point to aim for, to get him access into the bay. Instead I end up getting lost (and quite pissed) of certain bridges being here…, but they’re not showing on the fucking map!
Now as said, B2 made it to Lormere (alive). Proud of him. Hopefully tomorrow, I can figure out just where the hell I am..
