Choosing the romantic options will get you the following song:

In Thundermar the tales proclaimed
Of a beauty destined for fame
Soft emerald green eyes framed a countenance, wise
The people cried "Fanny," her name.

Of her suitors she was unimpressed
'Til Mighty Firebeard crossed heart and professed
To the heavens above our hero claimed love
Of a depth the like few can be blessed.

Now let cheering dispel the twilight
And let the Wildhammers unite!
Answer the call, know that love conquers all
And let's set these whole Highlands alight!

Choosing the silly options:

She came from Thundermar, they say
Ballyhoo hip hip hooray!
Guys sighed and plied eyes on this pint-sized prize
'Twas Fanny fo Fanny hey hey.

Then Firebeard decreed his plea
Ho diddly whoa diddly dee
His goal he professed was marital arrest
Oh Fanny! No Fanny, don't flee!

Now the Wildhammers are one!
Whoa doggy hot diggity dun
Unite and take flight, it's a Twilight knifefight
For Fanny! For Firebeard! For fun!

Choosing the bawdy options:

In Thundermar the tales proclaimed
Of a bold lass destined for fame
With emerald green eyes and big man-crushing thighs
And "Fanny," a most fitting name.

Ol' Firebeard he made her his quest
On one knee his love he professed:
"Oh Fanny me Fanny, do marry me can ye?
I loves ya and I loves yer chest."

Now let cheering dispel the twilight
And let the Wildhammers unite!
They're short an' they're stout, but no man can doubt:
Firebeard and his Fanny are tight.

Description

I've written many an epic tune in my lifetime, {name}, but this upcoming wedding deserves a very special ballad. And fast! Should I write a love song? A lighthearted ditty? A bawdy drinking song? I could use some help with the lyrics, if you fancy a go at it. Talk to me and we'll write a song together!

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • Wild, Wild, Wildhammer WeddingTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    We are ready to begin, <name>! But I have it on good authority that the Twilight's Hammer may try to disrupt the ceremony, so as to demoralize and destroy the Wildhammer. Things could get dangerous!
