Last time i afk'ed in the valley i ended up stuck in a vase in front of Halfhill Inn with lots of interesting whispers and emotes. That was like 2 weeks ago.
jade forest requires tons of user interaction. i had it questing there last night while watching a movie and i had to intervene 4 or 5 different times.
The quest where you have to throw the rope onto the big white bird so you can jump up on to it and kill it. Still there atm, practically babysitting it while watching TV if anything else pops up.
