I'm stuck in WoW, and I need MAJOR HELP.

Ok guys, here's the story. I was trying to complete a quest on Teldarissil (sp?), and was roaming around Wellspring Lake/River, trying to avoid the tougher monsters and still find the person I needed. Well, in haste of running and hiding, I accidentally slid down into the damn waterfall (fvcking landscape is unreadable), and promptly died when I landed on a jagged rock halfway down. I wasn't the least surprised to see another corpse down there with me, as someone had done the same thing I did.

So, I turned into a ghost, and I went after my body. After the long trek, I got to where I slid off, and figured I could stand near and revive myself. Apparently I wasn't able to get close enough to my corpse to revive, and eventually my ghost form slid down the damn waterfall too. This time, I made it all the way down. So now, if you look at the following picture of the map, you'll see where I've been working my around the island, trying to find a way in. Thing is, there isn't one.

So what the fvck do I do now? I don't know much about the game, so someone please have an answer for me. If I can't get back to my body or revive myself, I guess I'll have to start my character over (which sucks, but I am only a level 8). Someone please give me some good news and tell me how to correct what I've done.

page a GM, or suck it up and get revived at the cemetary (you'll take a 25% damage hit on all your equipped items, but at level 8, that shouldn't be more than a couple copper).

But how do I get back to a cemetary?

EDIT: I can't find my way back onto the island. You'd be surprised at how high up this island is once you look straight up the sides and see nothing but tree bark go into the clouds.

can't you just swim down the river in ghost form?

if there's any place to swim at all, you could awlays just keep swimming till you re-die from exhaustion (yes, you can die again as a ghost :p I tried swimming across the ocean a couple weeks ago as a wisp. hehe).

Swim down the river? I'm out in the ocean. The map is misleading, as all the outsides that you see that look like tree bark raise about a mile straight up into the air. The exit to that river where my corpse is is a mile high waterfall. There is absolutely no where to be able to climb up. And if I was to be able to re-die from exhaustion, I'd have done it by now. I've been "swimming" around the ocean for quite some time looking for a why back up/in.

try hitting the auto-run button and swimming straight out into the middle of the veiled sea.

you could also try circling round the island. there's a town on the bottom (second green spot from the left, I think). there's a portal in the town to let you warp back to Darnassus.

Well, I just went in to page a GM, and there is some "un-stuck" thing it wanted me to try first. So I hit that button, waited a few seconds, and it transported me back to the graveyard. Thanks guys, I didn't know about the GM stuff :). All is well now.
