Sea Posted a Blog: Family Found ... cont.
She asked me if I had a guild here and I explained that I had met up with some friends but they were leaving and I was looking for one. She immediately told me that I would be welcome in her family of Gaiscioch. I was shocked could it be that my best friend was in the family that I was searching to find out about my Sister Searobin. I asked Asesina who is your leader? She replied one of the best leaders you would ever want to follow and that his name was Foghladha. I cried he is the one I have been searching for...

Caelee Posted a Blog: A Deal with the Defiant - Part 3
And now, the conclusion of the Telara Saga event. Foghladha gives his speech to the Defiant. The following photos document some memorable moments from that speech. "The Dragon Cult conspired this war as a distraction, to buy more time. Every moment we fight, the ward that protects our way of life grows weaker.": "It is only in our darkest moment that we posess the most potential to shine! Tonight Telara finds itself in its darkest hour!": Those that are gathered listen intently as Foghladha brings the speech to a close: A deal is made for cooperation as Guardian and Defiant move forward "together as one united Telara":

Caelee Posted a Blog: A Deal with the Defiant - Part 1
Last night we witnessed an historic event. Foghladha led the Gaiscioch and the Guardians of Faeblight to the steps of Meridian to make a deal with the Defiant to unite against the great threat of the Dragon Cult. Here is a picture summary of how events unfolded: 190 Gaiscioch leave Sanctum: The Guardians align in a formation along the road to Meridian: The Guardians successfully capture a portion of the courtyard of Meridian before being victimized by a weapon of the Dragon Cult (which caused disconnects followed by a shard crash): 190 Guardians ask the Messenger of the Vigil for a ressurection: Our forces regroup to prepare for another assault: Shinobii, the leader of the Defiant forces, is slain in battle: To be continued...

Arlinde Posted a Blog: The Ascension of Belrain Stormbow
Belrain had no idea how long had passed since the blackness engulfed him and the others. He seemed alone now, wrapped in a soft, warm light and mist. Out of the mist, a light began to grow in brightness. And though near blinding in intensity, Belrain felt his gaze drawn to it, and comfortable looking upon it. Out of the light, a figure emerged. A woman, radiant and splendorous, so far surpassing the beauty of his own wife, or his beloved homeland Queen, Lady Alustriel Silverymoon, that he immediately fell to one knee and his mind came upon one thought...

Arlinde Posted a Blog: The Arrival in Silverwood
In the fields of Silverwood, no one noticed the transparent form that appeared on the ground beneath an elder yew tree. There was no witness to the sparks of light encompassing the being, how the form appeared to fill with liquid color from the center outward, or how it somehow shined like quicksilver had been poured into it as if a mold. Nor how it then became solid, and whole. Light. Burning, penetrating light. Belrain knew his eyes were closed, yet felt as if he were looking directly into the sun...

Arlinde Posted a Blog: Farewell, Hibernia
"Again! As one!", the Firbolg bellowed, and the Hibernians beside him surged forward. The fortified war ram crashed into the heavy wooden gate before them. The tower was close to being breached, and still there was no sign of resistance. One could only imagine the Captain's terror, as he now stood alone at the top to defend the outpost, his defenders long since dispatched by the attacking Hibernians. Shielding themselves from the tower parapet, a celtic druid and elven ranger kept watch for incoming defenders or marauders...

Niira Posted a Blog: The Story of Talist Cont.
We rode to Sanctum to report what was going on. The city was in arms. There had already been several smaller attacks, but nothing like what we had dealt with. I sighed as I climbed the steps into the main part of Sanctum. Sain, Grogin and Faedrin were ahead of us, and I let out a soft sigh. Nioua trotted up next to me, and smiled, speaking softly to me, "Cheer up girl, I don't think he will be TOO mad at you and you DID have backup this time!" She giggled and ran ahead, and I smiled to myself as Siet joined her and the started a conversation with the dwarf Grogin...

Niira Posted a Blog: Background on my characters
So here I will give you a little background on my characters. Talist Nainess Niira Nioua Naedi Siet Talist is my main, she is a Mathosian female Warrior of the Beastmaster/Paragon/Riftblade spec. She died at age 12, a mere child when her town was over run. She tried in vain to save the other children of her town, but did not succeed. She was the last to die. Sadly, after becoming ascended, she still remembers everything so it has made her very shy, and introverted. The Vigil brought her back as an adult, seeing great promise in her as a warrior with a true heart...

Niira Posted a Blog: The Story of Talist
Just for reference before I start writing: Talist is a female Math, looking to be approximately 20ish in age, very small and petite in stature. She is a warrior, of the Beastmaster/Paragon/Riftblade spec and RP and storywise, is normally found to be hanging out with four female dwarfs, Niira, Naedi, Nioua and Siet. (my alts) Talist looked around the forest, cocking her head slightly, senses alert to a danger she could not see, nor hear but was aware of. A soft yowl took her out of her musings, and she looked down at Zistan, her spirit beast...

Selrina Posted a Battle Recap: A Newbie's Perspective
I was sitting on the stairs reading all the guild chat trying to understand which event was which between the T1's and T2's, raids, rallies, etc. when the Stonefield Saga was announced. I was not sure what I was getting myself into but I jumped in anyway. Well Foghladha invited me so I could not be a coward! After surviving the long swim, where I thought I might drown from fatigue before we even got there, I followed the leaders into battle. It was fast paced but those with faster mounts did not leave us lower levels behind...

Keiyen Posted a Blog: Journal Entry One
Today was relaxing. I was near the auction hut today, just seeing what was for sale. When my small ears over heard a very fun and interesting conversation. I noticed there were others I had seen around the guild hall from time to time. One I noticed was the one I had followed around the day before healing during the Hag invasion in Gloamwood, and the other could have been my twin. So I walked over and introduced myself. Ansley and Cobolt were goofing on each other and playing around dancing. It was very amusing...

Sea Posted a Blog: Gods of the Vigil cont.
After the man left, I stayed awake for quite some time thinking of his words and what he said. Could it really be true that Robin has died and here in this land of all places. I know she was intent on finding father's killer but never would have thought he would have came here to this land. I wonder if that is why father sent us here? Do you think he knew this man his killer? I know that Searobin was a skilled assassin and she traveled alone and mostly at night but never would I thought her stupid enough to take on a gang alone...

My sisters and I were relaxing at the fire, when a stranger appeared. Bammer stood and drew her sword. I told her to stand down that we were in friendly territory. Sir can we assist you, I asked. He said, no mamm I hope you don't mind but I noticed your names. Yes sir and what of our names? Well mam did you have another by your name in this Land? Im not sure what your asking sir. We have another older sister Searobin that has been out traveling for some time. Have you heard of her in these lands? Well mam I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it seems your Sister was somewhat of a legend in these lands...

I set about finding a campfire to rest and await my siters arrival. I sat down in a corner of the town and waited. Off in the distance I could hear yelling and looked over and saw my sisters running in my direction. All of them were trying to talk at once, as usual. Slow down, I said, one at a time I can't hear you if you all talk at once. Seabammer you go first, tell me of your day please. Well Sis as you know I had to choose what they call a soul. And me loving my sword and shield I took up warrior as my cause...

Lothrich Posted a Blog: Gloamwood Event June 24th
Don't know what happened with the original blog post I made for this event but it got deleted by someone or me I am not entirely sure. I spent a little time working on the graphic above to celebrate my first event so I would like to share it with the Family. For my first event it was pretty fun. It was well organized and we went through the Gloamwood country-side like butta! I have now participated in I think 3 events so far. The second one wasn't as organized and we were scattered a bit but the one last night (my group lead by Prissy) was excellent...

I came across a proclamation from the King to the people. It spoke of using technomancy as being lawful, and the right to own such equipment withing the Kingdom. i will have to research this matter later as this is all so new to me. For some reason this must be important to this King for those against this shall be executed for treason. Maybe he isnt the just King I thought of earlier. I was sent to Valor Hold after my last task, and I am to see Cyril Kalmar finally my father's friend. I am hoping he has received my letter of introduction...
