Don't blow this whole thing up into another 40 page rant on the raves section please.
I just wanted to rave because Hirst and I were 2v2ing Caladbolg and Seftin. Then we went after Tesha and Aldair because they killed Fendrel in Annwyn. We followed them out of Annwyn (into Bopolopia, no less) and went after Tesha...a mark. That is when it quickly became 2v4. Hirst and I still managed to bounce around enough to earn a few kills.
Then, Santar, Reonna and that noobish girl with the Q name (sorry, I don't know you yet) decided to join in. That is when Nemutaur and Jinsun showed up.
Sorry if my idea of fun was a 2v2 turned 2v4 turned 2v6 turned 4v6 skirmish, where the odds were never in our favor. Scream arties and combatant all you want, but I had fun. The fact that Aldair got killed at the cave by one person while the others stood there and did -nothing- until Tesha showed up, should stand as a testament to the fairness of it all. It's not like we were sitting over her waiting for grace to drop so we could tear her apart from 5 angles.
Regardless of the reasons we attacked you in an Open-PK area (sorry I guess?), I still don't see how my rave of a fun skirmish between Hirst and I vs Caladbolg, Seftin, You and Aldair warrants a WTF because of some lame gank afterwards that didn't even include me.
So thank you for discounting my rave on behalf of Targossas WTFing 1 person's rave because you wanted to WTF all of Ashtan. Go pull an old forums post that has nothing to do with any of this and WTF someone else.
Aldair sitting at the cave until grace drops is stupid and is just baiting so people can bitch about it later. She has tumble and pretty sure she has wings.
We already have a Rants thread for you, stop bringing this to the Raves too!
On topic, it's a really small thing but I am excited at the prospect of potentially being the first to do something in an organisation. I've always envied the early players of Achaea because they got to build foundations and create legacies that future players over the generations could look up to and uphold. You can always improve on what exists, but I've always wanted to build something from the ground up and it thrills me that things are starting to come together and people are getting (hopefully) excited. There is a particular motivation in seeing things you've only talked about on paper actually come to life (so to speak) and become a part of your world.
@Ellodin, @Carmain and @Nocroth are all awesome for putting up with my random ramblings and questions and decisions that change every few minutes. Also to the bunch of people I'm doing this for, you guys make it worth it!

@Scarlatti for just being an awesome God in general. I've definitely enjoyed my interactions with you and within Cyrene.
Getting to see @Twilight come back, and actually running around during an event was also an -awesome- experience. I can't wait for more to happen and to be in the thick of it.
Anyway, going after defenders isn't cool, whether it's 1 person or 1 person with 3 people guarding him.
This is kind of played out. I've seen the most ridiculously inexperienced Ashtani players killed for defending over and over again. @Jozlyn To be frank, you jump on any reason to randomly message me and get on a soapbox with no proof that I griefed or ganked someone (i.e. the @Alaskar debacle) Just like this month when I did not touch Aldair and defended Hirst when you showed up -after- @Aldair died. Getting real tired of your shit. How about you worry about your own cause and issuing and such, keep your nose in your own business, and let everyone else play the game. If @Aldair feels wronged by @Hirst let her issue. She's a big girl. We don't need you spamming messages or trashing boards over it.
If I forgot someone, sorry. I like when people keep skirmishes to a reputable 2v4, 3v5 scenario. Makes for a much more interesting engagement.

Da'Navi, Ksiradhi's kai.

Killsteals FTW
Thanks @Kross! I had never been a big fighter until @Jinsun, but I freaking love the Ashtan Military (even if I don't get any kills and @Dunn won't give us our bonuses!) Jk love you guys. btw, where do I apply for the A-team?
I don't know. I'm told i'm part of it, but I have yet to receive the leather jacket. Not in the big times yet, I guess.
It cracks me up when we get someone new (myself included) they always ask,"Why didn't they invite me?" I just reply now, "You don't want to know how long it takes to get invited on any kind of regular basis."
@Quisse It's been nice interacting with you. You're helping me figure out just who Vithincus is. Glad to have you around!
@Shecks I don't know why it's taken someone from Ashtan so long to finally attack me, but I'm glad it happened. I know myself, and I know I won't really invest in learning combat until I have revenge as a serious motive. So (and I'll probably regret saying this) I hope it happens more often. I hear citizens of Ashtan like to cuddle with scented pillows because they are lame! Do your worst!
@Vithincus It was a fun fight, and it was nice seeing the otherwise useless bracers of frost do something useful for once. (block/freeze ground is a vicious counter to to leap/mountjump). Can I confirm that you were using Angel Care? I thought you were locked several times, and you kept popping out of it randomly. I didn't pick up on it until the very end of the fight. (because I didn't realize you were a pally until you dropped rites)

As I'm not sure what angel care even is I was most likely not using it. I dropped a rite of healing when I figured out that I didn't know how to escape from that trap. You probably would have picked up on my being a paladin a lot quicker if my general strategy wasn't "fuck fuck fuck what do I do!" button mashing. I don't even think I remembered to set you as a target for at least 45 seconds.
Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by how much there is to read and learn, and set myself little milestones as I go.
I re-remembered http://www.spreeder.com/ which has been a lifesaver! You copy the text over, and speed-read it (can adjust the speed if you're not used to it). Makes glazing over long newsposts amazingly easy, I've managed to get a gist of things I need without boring myself to tears. It's grand!
While part of me is still a little sad that I had to leave Mhaldor (and leaving is putting it kindly, I think), I have to admit I've been having a blast. @Scarlatti, @Scarlattans, a few cyrenians, a few targossans, a few rogues, and one certain mhaldorian all make for a very interesting and varied experience. :x
Now, if only I could add some ashtani, some hashani and at least one eleusian, the collection would be complete.
:-?
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
Because of illness, I got to have a great morning in Mhaldor. Finally got started working on my last few progression requirements, had a sense of personal progression that I'd been missing for a while, and some awesome interactions as usual with @Orzaansyn and (especially) @Nocroth.
You guys still intimidate me RP-wise, but I hope I'm getting better!

Not bad, if I do say so myself.
