What Happened To You Today?

Ahmet

The tinkling peal of sovereigns echoes through your ears as you sense that the Lord of Wealth has so generously bestowed His truefavour upon you for 1 Achaean month.

Kyrra

With a flourish, you sign a matrimonial licence, legitimising the contract.

Ehene

I finally finished the book I've been working on. Like, in Achaea, not in real life. Although it has taken me RL months to finish, but that's mostly because I've had other stuff going on.

Talamond

Today, I became Archivist of Targossas.

Huge thanks to @Laniara for pushing me to take this on, and to @Halos for patiently explaining the role the other day.

After having a crap day because of weird things people did, I suddenly got this to cheer me up:

Tears flow freely from your eyes as (Prospero, Lord of Wealth) appoints you to a Coin Changer.

  

Me too, me too!

That forced reaction though.

Krypton

It's also the same message getting placed at any rank, i.e., tears whether promotion OR demotion.

Aegoth

Finally became a big bad Sartai. Pretty stoked, as this is something I've wanted for a looooong time. Special thanks to everyone in the order who's pushed me hard, and believed in me, and made the recent push for it super fun: @watchman, @taraus, @saeva, @proficy, @ysela, @alynna

also big shout to mhaldor, because it's an amazing city full of potential. And finally thanks to @Sartan, who can instil a real sense of terror and portent into the role. I was shitting my pants when you told me to recite the oath, and then I looked at it, and started furiously typing it out on my phone. That is true Suffering

Aereidhna

Rave for active Divine!

Driden

New @Sartan is awesome.

Turned 33 today.

Everyone knows that the Sartan role is Achaea's Defense Against the Dark Arts position. Let's hope Voldemort is dead

Naoma

Would share the room look so imagine a crap ton of flowers!

Senoske beats his wings powerfully, causing the flowers in the room to suddenly take flight and swirl around the large spring. Suddenly the scaled form of him melts away and he kneels down before you, a singular ring clutched in his fingers.

Senoske gets down on one knee and, while holding forth a shining diamond butterfly ring, declares his eternal love for you, and asks you to marry him. Type AGREE if you will agree to marry him.

Aegoth

i hope yu said no. Ruin christmas

Naoma

Psh, No is so last year. I of course accepted. 

Greys

@Naoma ok if Naomh isn't around will need one of your sisters to fill in for the Vorondil grilling. I nominate @Kayeil

Kresslack

In an attempt to put a candle in someone's stocking, I put my taper of eternity in instead without realising it. When I tried to get it back I was told:

This is not your stocking! Rather than jeopardise your chance for a visit from Ironbeard, you put it back.

Aereidhna

I've done this a few times. On a positive note, at least it doesn't affect resetting!

Kresslack

That is very true, and fortunate. I probably would have done it even if I hadn't just finished up a 12 hour shift.

Aquil

I am spending Christmas alone, and was having a pretty down time of it. But shout outs to @Alrena and @Exxia for both sending me caches, and just kind of making my lonely Christmas a little better! Thanks so much!

You beckon to a polar bear cub.

A polar bear cub rolls towards you excitedly, looking remarkably like an oversized snowball. (Yay! Thanks @Exxia!)

 

You beckon to a tundra caribou fawn.

A tundra caribou fawn rears his front legs in the air, before following behind you happily. (Yay! Thanks @Alrena!)

The Tundra Turbo Team! Ra ra Rua Kopaka!

It's hard to be away from the family on the holidays. Many thanks to @Alinixa and @Bann for spending some time on Christmas Eve with me. It definitely brightened my spirits.

Plus I'm SO excited to have received these two new pals:

A bone shrike lands momentarily upon your finger, tiny talons gripping painfully.

A tundra caribou fawn nuzzles his head contentedly against your hand, the bell hanging from his antler jingling merrily.

Bann

@Truax - No sweat, it was fun Glad you're enjoying!!

Aodfionn

Introduced two of my nephews to Achaea. 

Marisella

@Ellodin got me an enchanted pebble, my stocking gave me an ice figurine which I needed for customising, @Ioci sent me muffins and candy in a letter, and I got to wander around Nishnatoba for Logosmas!

It has been a happy Christmas both in the game and out of the game so far.

Jonathin

I got probably the shittiest gold stocking ever.

What am I going to do with a whetstone, 4k gold and a few commodities. I don't need another proficiency and if I did, I would have just bought the whopping 17 credits to get it.

Sarathai

Today I held a meeting.

You say, "Anybody else, or can I call this to a close?"

You say, "Anybody else with other topics, specifically."

(Order): Aquil says, "Sarathai praying hard."

Ellodin says in a quiet but clear voice, "Ah, maybe."

(Order): Aquil says, "Sarathai crying hard."

 @Aquil on commentator duties.

I knew I should've brought the assortment of teas available in Eleusis up when you did your last call...

I got a few praises from people simply for making the meeting bearable with my commentating, it was fun to just laugh my ass off by getting to play Quil as commentator and do play by plays. Hopefully it made most people's headaches a little less troublesome.

Gavriil

Congratulations! Your team has WON the King of the Hill game!

This is why I debated on even getting one and, ultimately, am glad I did not.
