at the right time, you can see a Thresadon swim around named Nessy, obviously
a reference to Scotland's Loch Ness monster.

warriors receive training you can go to a Siege Engine depot where you'll find

Star War's Biggs Darklighter, who was Luke's cover on the Death Star run.

Easter Egg: In Ironforge, there is the ancient city of Ironforge. First jump
into the molten pit inside the great forge to enter ghost form. Walk back into
IF and go into the King's Throneroom. There should be two doors against the
wall, walk into the left one and then revive on the other side. You should be
able to explore the original Ironforge. When you want to leave, hearth out.
Note: Some people say they cannot get inside, even while in spirit form, I
haven't checked (but will soon) but it is possible Blizzard has restricted it
in a recent patch.
