Eleusis had the most defenders around (That is people who I've seen defend), and assumed greatest chance to get people to defend.
Ashmond, Minifie, Athalos and Me aren't exactly the A-Team of raiders. We saw Arkantos, Alyxeri, Miriew, Torrent, Erikka, Mercer and few others smaller defenders.
We literally just tried to raid in hopes others wanted to too, they didn't, so we left. Thats how raids should go.
For 2018 I wish people would stop counting non-coms when assessing raids.
To be fair we have enough to put up a semblance of defense, but at 8 in the morning after a night of parang and ponch de creme, I don't have it in me to corral people into doing something they don't want to
Took a while - and some help from a few people on how to tackle certain quests - but: By virtue of the ancient Moot, you are raised to the rank of Cacharann, and granted all the powers of the Earthen Lord.
You have slain Fafnir, Lord of the Dark Court, retrieving the corpse.
The melodical cheering of the fairy world heralds Krysanth's actions in slaying the ruler of the Dark Court.
The flame engulfs you but does not burn; you feel your spirits soaring to ever greater heights as your strength becomes more.
Your soul cries out in ecstasy as it reaches new heights of power. You have advanced to level 99.
You have reached the illustrious level of Greater Dragon.
A huge thanks to all the people who helped me hunt! A big thanks to @Proficy for making it extra cool at the end by getting Fafnir low for me to kill and using his tank to level me up at 99.9%!
Siarde, the Speaker smiles at you sincerely, offering a short bow of respect.
You see Siarde, the Speaker yell, "Someone whose integrity, steadfastness and effectiveness in handling our affairs has been proven a dozen times over. May our new Prime Minister be a shining example to all of you of the behaviour expected of the Coterie staff."
The prestigious title of Prime Minister is bestowed upon you by Siarde, and with it, the powers of Air Lord are yours to command.
PREVAIL to assume your form, and FORSAKE AIR to return to normality.
Only had a few days to play recently and wanted to try out elemental lord. The quests were fun - even if some had almost no hints or weird syntaxes! - and I enjoyed the theme of the Coterie a lot. I'd love to try Water, but the incredible malus puts me off - and I like Air anyway.
Thanks definitely go to @Tasuu and @Crixos for helping me out when I got stuck and helping me kill the hard-to-kill stuff. Literally could not have done it without you and having you keep me company made it a lot less dull. Also to @Kasa for inadvertently teaching me how to deal with Ystehr - I suspect I might have been stuck there a lot longer if not. Hurray for good old fashioned subterfuge!

Picked upp depthswalker as second class, transed shadowmancy and tried the bashing. Killed two orcs, ate a seftonium and switched back to runewarden twohander.
You skilfully whirl a spiked, Hashani flail toward the left leg of Welsh. The final blow proves too much for Welsh, who falls to the floor a broken, bloody mess.

An immense black cloud settles over the city of Hashan, radiating an ominous un-light as a chorus of sibilant voices fills the skies, its hushed voices exultant in the acclaim of the Dark Lord. (city truefavor)
A thunderous warcry echoes off the blasted peaks of the Siroccian Mountains, followed by a martial fanfare of swords against shields.
The air trembles with the clarion roar of warhorns as the Commander dignifies you with a symbol of His strongfavour for 1 Achaean month.

After that first fight in Targossas, I went back to Hashan because RL came up and I -thought- I hit qq, but apparently I didn't hit the enter key or something. Anyways, I somehow ended back up with the raid group as far as I can tell. My buffer does not go back far enough.
ETA: found out that someone made me follow and I was just a meat shield or something.
I am retired and log into the forums maybe once every 2 months. It was a good 20 years, live your best lives, friends.

It's ok. I made a quick script that a specific individual can trigger to send me back to Hashan for qq if I'm AFK and it happens again. I don't mind the dying, but it doesn't really seem fair (in my head) that someone (me) can basically follow and draw fire without even being at the keyboard.

That was the best couple of hours I've had in Achaea for a while. Mhaldor loiter at our gates; we dispatch them. They return in force and wipe us out a few times, taking some guards and a room with them. We head into Mhaldor and are reminded why that was a bad idea, so we head into Targ assuming that was an equally poor choice of activity but nicer scenery*
For Hashan to actually raid, do so successfully and get a lvl 2 tank was amazing. The city channel was buzzing afterwards and the Divine acknowledgement made it all the better. Kudos to Targ for taking part in that.
*(Court Coliseum): You say, "Guys, can we go raid somewhere? I'm on 499 kills and getting twitchy..."

Mariya has declared her support for you as Insid'atori of your House. You have gained the requisite number of supporters and become the Insid'atori of the Insidium.
Your body jerks as red veins rise upon your skin, throbbing angrily with Malevolent energy for 3 Achaean months.
The Insidium's my favorite house I've ever played in, and I get honestly excited about how it grows. I'm not one to worry that much about text power, but this is a really nice thing for me from the angle of being able to help it keep getting better.

Finally. The malus was frustrating, kvkir was infuriating, and I called in a lot of favors to get the last bits done.
But the quest was amazing and wrapped everything up in the perfect little bow.
Huge massive raves to @Ictinus, @Shirszae, @Melodie, @Alrena, @Aegoth, @Minifie, @Kiet, and @Crixos for helping me out on this.
So uh.. who's gunna be the first Avatar, master of all the elements..?
