Qwuan says with a cold, thick Mhaldorian accent, "She got lucky."

Qwuan leaves to the south.

Or did you just trap yourself in a room with an Alchie and not expect bad things to happen? =P

Got trapped in a room with an alchy once. Worst date ever.

Rumour has it that was a closet, and it was a mop.

I can neither confirm nor deny that the mop was drunk.

I'm sorry for initially Lol-ing your post. I retracted it. It just seems a bit dramatic. Yield the writs. Stop witnessing shrines. Focus instead on raising them. There are many different options available to your character along the spectrum before quitting the game all together. 

Yea that would have been great that's what I was doing was raising the shrines and oh look they would get defiled again 5 minutes later so yea it was just stupid as all get out and oh it's still going on a whole day later so obviously it's not going to stop anytime soon.  So who gives a crap at this point. 

Perhaps you need to be more creative in your shrine placement. Look to your God(s) for some assistance even. This happens all the time to the Dreamers, who are not a militant order by in large. We just roll with it the same way we did Aegis jumping into the Dreamrealm and effectively forcing us to blow up our beloved riverside Temple: There is probably some fun RP to be had here. 

You might also consider some RP related to the loss of recent shrines: A rally to offer essence at a protected or master shrine to increase the pool you need to fight back properly. A public or private prayer to the God(s) at a protected shrine asking for direction or growth of influence. Discussing the means of shrines and their impact in the realm with other Targossians (I'm looking at you @Daeir). 

There are so many options. I think what's clear though is that you don't have the temperament for shrine conflict. It's ugly and barbaric and relentless, but it's also opt-in.

Putting shrines up in the Reaches, just outside of the city, is pretty much asking for them to be attacked so that they can be defended.  They're obviously not there for offering corpses since there's Aurora and Deucalion shrines everywhere in the city. 

So their utility is in their value as defendable targets.  Sometimes they get defended, sometimes they don't.  But if they're not being defended because there's nobody on to defend them, I don't see the point of immediately putting the shrine back up in the same spot.  At least wait for Gerwulf and Jaelyth to log on, guys.

Okay, I give. What the hell is the Reaches?

Cresil begins to spin a crystal disc with an awkward amount of skill, borne of an expert.

You stare implacably at Cresil.

Cresil says in Mhaldorian in a sibilant voice, "It's in my genes."

You say, "Good day, sir."

You say, "Do you want to be a magi?"

You say, "Come on let's go spin vibes."

Cresil says in Mhaldorian in a sibilant voice, "I won't be able to stab anymore, snipe through the 

door? I'd really rather not."

You say, "We could be cata buddies..."

You say, "And transfix hoes."

You say, "Why won't you just change claaaaasss?"

This has been bothering me for a while, why is it called that? I mean where does it say its called that? I remember it confused the hell out of me when I first joined, I was surveying everything to find this Reaches place

Cleaning up a log, and came across this little treasure... bit old obviously, but, during a particular debate:

Phaestus shields His eyes against the collective Ashtani eye-sparkle.

Nieelensars smirks at Phaestus.

Atalkez utters a deep, rumbling laugh at Phaestus.

(United Union of Crafters): Lianca says, "Next submission, burberry eye-masks."

(United Union of Crafters): Phaestus says, "Ahaha."

(United Union of Crafters): You say, "You're making me giggle, and this is srs business, damnit."

(United Union of Crafters): Lianca says, "I don't eyesparkle! Must defend myself ."

(United Union of Crafters): Taraus says, "Is taking every ounce of restraint I have to not indignantly claim I jingle, not sparkle."

(United Union of Crafters): Phaestus says, "Anymore*."

Those are some nice Magi you have there. It would be a shame if something were to happen to them.

2-3 magi?  Join warlocks.  We are shitting magi right now.  Cata on demand. I haven't thought "Sure would be nice to have a magi to help me spin a cata for this raid" in like six months.  @Jonesey‌ tell em, brother.

So, for the HoHoHo society, many of us had to do this today.

In that case, come join Hashan - we're not Ashtan and we have Magi.

(Kelworans and Such): Maega says, "Anyone have any questions?"

(Kelworans and Such): Jeslyn says, "Nope!"

(Kelworans and Such): You say, "Is the Achaean sky blue?"

(Kelworans and Such): Maega says, "Haha."

(Kelworans and Such): Jeslyn says, "Ha.."

(Kelworans and Such): Maega says, "Wait, was that a clever way of saying that people will have questions or just a silly question?"

(Kelworans and Such): You say, "Umm."

(Kelworans and Such): You say, "I came up with it out of being silly but I'm not actually sure if the answer is yes."

(Kelworans and Such): Maega says, "Hehe."

(Kelworans and Such): You say, "For all we know, we could be breathing helium instead of oxygen with high pitched, chipmunk-like voices."

(Kelworans and Such): You say, "I actually hope we are breathing helium, that'd be hilarious."

(Kelworans and Such): Maega says, "*squeak*."

Nemutaur

Got some clarification on the new witnessing thing with shrines and a few other details. Figured I'd post it here so there's no more rule speculation.

15) You told Lathis: Hello. If I'm defiling a shrine with a group of people and a member of that order 

comes and witnesses and the witness happens on me. Who is allowed to attack the witnesser? The group 

or just the person who got witnessed?

19) Lathis told You: Everyone involved in the defiling may attack the witnesser, as witnessing has 

essentially proclaimed their interest in being involved in the action.

24) You told Lathis: Is it alright if I post your previous answer to me about the witnessing to the 

forums?

26) You told Lathis: There is always a lot of confusion and accusation about 'illegal attacking' when 

we do this.

30) Lathis told You: That is perfectly fine, go ahead!

31) You told Lathis: Thank you. Oh while we're on shrines. If someone defiles one of our shrines and 

we veilglance into the room while the shrine is still under attack and note the people there. Are we 

allowed to seek retribution? Or only if we witness them doing it?

37) Lathis told You: Nope, you either have to go and attack them there at that moment, or witness to 

attack later. Without a writ, it's not allowed to hunt someone for a defilement later on down the line.

46) You told Lathis: Hmm, what if they defiled so quickly that the shrine just dropped and we want to 

catch them on the way back to their city? Or are you saying as soon as the shrine is down and they 

move one room from it that's that? Because that makes no RP sense.

48) Lathis told You: If they're still in the area of the shrine that's justifiable, but the waters get 

muddy when they're out of that area, as a veilglance or a who list simply isn't enough to go off of to 

prove defilement and it just leads to unnecessary PK lawyering.

49) You told Lathis: Alright. How about if we just manage to get into their room just as the shrine 

drops, we can't get a writ but we see the people there in person and they start running. Can we chase 

them back to their city (for example) or rather out of area then?

50) Lathis told You: If it's within a couple minutes of the defilement, that'd be fine, but if they 

manage to make it back to some sort of safety you'd be expected to consider the matter dropped and 

move along.

Oh, Wayde.

I'll give you an example: Wayde once accused me of spending too much money on the game because I had 231 speed rapiers.
