What Happened To You Today?

Vhaith

Your nostrils flare with a rush of air as your sinuous body contracts and your mouth opens wide to emit a rippling, unbroken

roar that reverberates through the very earth underfoot.

You have completed the You Shall Fall resolution! Congratulations!

You just received message #18 from Achaea.

You just received a group of 3 mementoes!

You have slain Atalkez.

Really enjoying all the stuff happening in Ashtan as of late, in particular the presence of Lady @Pandora at the recent Key Rite was such a nice surprise for some of our newer citiens, who were notably wow-ed by a chance to see a divine firsthand!

We're definitely lucky to have so many amazing people and Gods in the Seat. Much love to all our divine volunteers for all the hard work they put in to make Achaea awesome for everyone!

I had my very first interaction with a Divine today after all this time of playing and it was none other than Pandora. It was so sudden and of course entirely unexpected to have been pulled from Center Crossing and then deposited back promptly after it had taken place. A very fun experience and definitely something that left me a little giddy with excitement.

Thaisen barrels into a House Rakum enforcer and knocks him to the ground before stomping over his prone form.

Thaisen has scored an ANNIHILATINGLY POWERFUL CRITICAL hit!

A House Rakum enforcer says, "My debt to House Rakum is repaid in full."

A House Rakum enforcer has been slain by Thaisen.

You have learned a new Attainment ability: Dragonhood.

Your soul cries out in ecstasy as it reaches new heights of power. You have advanced to level 99.

You have completed the Ashaxei's Brood resolution! Congratulations!

You just received message #1897 from Achaea.

You just received a group of 15 mementoes!

You have reached the illustrious level of Greater Dragon.

A large pile of sovereigns spills from the corpse.

A sycophantic shoulder cape worn by Thaisen darkens as he appears enlivened and determined.

Very fitting that I leveled off @Thaisen's kill since I owe him not just this one, but about the last 20! Huge thanks to everyone else who helped me live in avoidance of my fear of hunting alone: @Prythe @Gloern @Elstan @Laedha @Arin! @Ryssa (RIP @Tasus) and to Elyra who doesn't forums for endless encouragement and the donation of those first 2 profithysts that got me addicted. I hate hunting and never thought I'd get dragon until very recently, so I appreciate all of you to bits for helping me get there!

Got pulled up to see the Lady Pandora today.  After causing world lag from bugling the graveyard with it lagging everything out and being locked with no EQ.  Couldn't get my system to reset, and preceded to log in multiple times without knowing I was in Her presence except the first time.

Massively surprised she didn't just kill me and get it over with.  By the time I fixed myself, she'd basically thrown me back into Eleusis.

Amused that the time she wants to talk I'm completely screwed, disappointed I might have missed my chance to talk to another Divine.

Hehe my experience with Divine is I get pulled, Oh I didn't die! This is a positive experience!

Astarod

Today, someone I had a similar class with asked me for combat help. They did so respectfully, and listened to what I had to say. To be frank- it was easy, simple, and it felt great! I was really happy that I could actually tell them specifics and show them how my methods actually worked in first/second person. Sparring them before/after had a noticeable difference, and it was fun.

It's really the small things, sometimes. There's a certain feeling when you help someone grow in something you both enjoy, and I felt it for the first time today, for the first time in awhile.

Was sleeping to regain some Endurance and had this dream...

A tiny opossum darts up to you and begins to squeak animatedly. Soon, you realise you are surrounded
by hundreds of opossums, all staring up at you with small, beady eyes, smiling with razor-sharp
teeth.

Milabar

Dear God, you got surrounded by @Perl minions!  Flee man, flee!

I did that to a mhun once and it went into invincible mode and stalked me until I died.

2019/10/20 19:05:24 - Adrik, Elon, Farrah, Krizal, and Mezghar have destroyed The ruins of Northern Parade of Zarathustra.
2019/10/20 19:05:24 - Adrik, Elon, Farrah, Krizal, and Mezghar have destroyed The ruins of the charred ruins of a constabulary.
2019/10/20 19:05:30 - Adrik, Elon, Farrah, Krizal, and Mezghar have destroyed The ruins of the Royal Bank of Ashtan.
2019/10/20 19:05:31 - Adrik, Elon, Farrah, Krizal, and Mezghar have destroyed The ruins of Bombs, Boats, Bites, and Booze.

Your vision blurs, clarity breaking apart in bursts of prismatic colour as the voice of Pandora echoes, "Your stubborn refusal to accept defeat where once you were the eternally trodden-upon is impressive, Hashan. Whether you will manage to win this particular little war is of no interest to Me, but you have certainly earned the ire of your enemies admirably."

Erratic swirls of kaleidoscopic colour solidify into a threshold of stained glass over the City of Hashan.

The above is my rave for today. Props to people not just rolling over and giving up, keeps things from getting stale imo.

Astarod

Kroac

Got Dragon and instantly ganked by @Dunn and @Astarod so I had to go hunt real quick to get it back

I'd be annoyed but I love the warm welcome boys

Been trying hard to finish this part of the fire lord quests but keep getting stuck by a bug. I am guessing the Fire Plane just doesn't like me 

Stheno

Sparse candles perched throughout this dank, windowless chamber cast just enough light to scarcely see. Tidy rows of gleaming implements lay conveniently upon tables next to sturdy restraints and threatening devices. Scarlet blood encrusts and smears almost every present surface on the sinister fixtures, its distinctive metallic tang amplified by the lack of ventilation in the chamber. Even the anatomical diagrams plastering the stone walls are unspared this primal anointment, dull crimson spatters occasionally obscuring clinical notes on physical manipulation. A black marble table sits at one end of the room, displaying an array of torture implements.

You take an iron gag from a black marble table.

The oblong box composing the front of this bizarre contraption has a hole drilled through the front to allow the passage of air, while a thin metal plate, arched to fit the roof of one's mouth, extends from the other side. The box has been affixed to a narrow, resilient metal collar used to secure the gag around the back of the neck, behind the head.

It weighs about 1 pounds and 4 ounce(s).

You are now wearing an iron gag.

You open an iron gag and place it around your head, fastening it at the back so that the metal plate in the front covers your mouth, leaving you nothing but a small hole to breathe through.

You say in Mhaldorian in a golden voice, "I wonder if this muffles the screams."

An iron gag muffles your words, lowering them to little more than a whisper.

You have emoted: Stheno grins with difficulty behind an iron gag.

You remove an iron gag.

You struggle to remove an iron gag, but find the effort futile.

You are wearing:
Misc:

   gag137000   an iron gag

You look surprised and say in Mhaldorian in a golden voice, "Oh."

An iron gag muffles your words, lowering them to little more than a whisper.

You have emoted: Stheno glances around the torture chamber for the right implement to free herself.

And they say church is dull.

I deflowered my pristine beverage license with Mayaween drinks.

Took me a while, but finally accomplished this. Thank to everyone who took time to offer congratulations.
