Not sure if this counts, but when you go through the gate from the Drag to Valley of Honour, the big ol' black circle of death appears. Not a biggie, but as I have a low level Orc toon, it was kind of a "huh!" moment.

Edit: Also when you go from the Drag to the Cleft of Shadows and leaving the Cleft to Valley of Strength and when you ride the elevator to where the zepplins and wind riders are.
