So there I was, talking with @Caoimhaen when a sanctioned raid comes up. I'm as useful as a lead balloon in combat at the moment, so I go quiet while Caoi does his business. We're in the back of a tavern, so I assume we'll be safe, so I do some OOC stuff for a second. When I return, the first bit of writing I see makes me swear aloud: yep, that's right: Caoimhaen is dead.... and I'm surrounded by at least @Jhui and @Malahorn (sp?). Both of who are 700% of my strength each. All I could manage was a "wtf" and a groan. I think it was so much more embarassing that Jhui was telling me I was "free to go" while he also was in front of the exit, and I kept getting bound. Seriously, they took their time... I knew I would die with absolute ease, and was completely embarassed that I was such a novice. Just as I was wondering what to do, @Aelios and a party of 5 run come in and a fight seems to take place. I say "seems", because I was legging it....
Shared my first father-daughter day with @Glyc in about 300 years (I think the last time I saw him he was handing off the entire stock of some Guild's crystals to me as he speedily drew the angry mob away):
Glyc Van Helsing, the Black Mage says, "Beautiful, and strong. You make your father proud."

Oh, the feels!
I haven't seen Glyc in so long - we were close pals at one point - glad you saw him again.

It was a brief entertaining respite, even if I felt a little dumb afterwards!
I'm only sad he didn't respond when I tried to chat him up.
And I love too Be still, my indelible friend That love soon might end You are unbreaking And be known in its aching Though quaking Shown in this shaking Though crazy Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
So, I thought knight changes were coming, along with many others, and got -really- excited and possibly might have peed my pants a little... all for nothings.
A large xaohlatl lingers here, appearing drained and lethargic.
Heavy down covers the body of this colourless avian, the plumage a dirty, mottled grey. Forked zigzags of a slightly lighter grey flow down the back and taper away near the rump. A single, tiny feather is all the remains of a once beautiful tail, the rest molted away. Thin legs protrude from the abdomen and gnarl into three curved talons, her weight balanced upon the cracking toes. The spherical head bears dark, beady eyes through which she gazes through dulled eyes, uninterested in her surroundings. She is called 'Ostira.'
You pet a grey xaohlatl ingratiatingly.
A grey xaohlatl tries to move away from the touch, her movements lazy and slow.
Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!" Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh." Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."
Bought enough lessons to trans Venom and put a nice start on Hypnosis, had to cut learning short to go to work but still worth it. Thanks @Tecton. The customer Service is just one more reason Achaea is better than any other Mud I've played.
Got back from a lovely vacation today. Not minutes after logging on, a new Cyrenian paladin tells Jeslyn that everyone talks crap about Diaspora to him and she gives him this look:

Shara is really vexed by having to watch her charge die in front of her, instead of having her taken away like Tepin. She's had Ossy by her side everyday (almost the entire time she's logged in) for weeks.
On a brighter note, her personal library is filling out and she's met a lot of people in her search to find new things to read about.
Today I gave a novice geography test, except I'm infamous and didn't feel like being jumped, so I followed the novice while phased and used my arte pet to do all the talking.
Did a crap ton of work today. I'm beginning to feel like half of a Senator in Cyrene.
- Appointed more new Ministers to the Council. - Explained half the day away to said new Ministers. - Wrote a bunch of letters and sent them out. - Talked about and passed some requirements with House proteges. - Palmed off explanation duties to @Kaevan. - Walked around to find for a clown named Fynbone. Subsequently stole the corpses of those he killed. - Tried to poison @Melodie. Failed. - Organized some tour in Mhaldor. - Heaped more work on new Cultural Minister, @Falthus. - Qq feeling pleased with myself.
"Mummy, I'm hungry, but there's no one to eat! :C"
Bought like 40 vials since a -bunch- all decayed at once. Refilled all of them. Restocked my rift. Helped newbies. Got a new protege later out of that. Gained like 25% experience. Died quite a few times to Mhaldorks. Defiled 2 shrines. Got to know @Malorn. Hung out with my ig son @Jarrol. Skirmished with Mhaldor. Pissed @Santar off by attacking him on clouds. We dueled after 2 attempts on my life. He couldnt kill me in Dragon form. Blamed it on my truefavor. Switched to serpent to kill me. At first I chased him around. I made a mistake and locked and killed me. Highly productive day for a change.

There's no greater way to instill a sense of awe and admiration in a novice than saying "Umm, you go ahead. I'll just follow from a safe distance and stay hidden, in case there are bandits on the highway".

I felt like Harry Flashman for a while.

Walked to Targossas in an attempt to find someone about unenemying me.
Died horribly before I could explain myself.
Concluded that perhaps sending a letter.. a message... telepathy... pretty much ANYTHING ELSE would be a wiser plan.
The boys are waiting.
Nothing fantastic, but it's something.
@Cynlael yay?
@Tecton halp?
So, I thought knight changes were coming, along with many others, and got -really- excited and possibly might have peed my pants a little... all for nothings.

That adventurer was also level 101, so that was another goal down.
True, I probably just managed to be that last hit, but that's ok. I went up by two levels straight away!

Note:none of the events are in order. :P
→My Mudlet Scripts
Unfortunately, it means less time in Achaea.
Finally, I walked into Targossas with mudlet mapper thinking it was Hashan while I decided to check to see if anything good was on Netflix. Oops?
