Discovered I still had humgii racing tickets left over from globes, and figured I'd go for the long shot. Turned out pretty well:
You have won 1778 Bound Credit(s) on your bet: 16 tickets on Double Time wins the race!
Goddamn it, YOU DONT NEED MORE CREDITS
Yeah. That's precisely why I bet on the humgii giving 111 credits per ticket if it won rather than one of the safer bets. At least I'll have a decent stock of credits for the next round of auctions, which has never really been the case before.

Woo Dargon!
Anyway. Obligatory thank you post inc.
Thank you @Mosr for A. Helping me upgrade my sip ring to lvl 2, keeping me on track and not letting me buy credits irl until after my move to Seattle and really just being a positive "go get 'em tirger" sort of person. Got to the point at 98 that he was logging in like every hour to ask me where I was and prodding me along (not to mention the steady stream of profithyst <3<3<3).
Thanks to @Naoma for being patient with Seno. Time with him was rare and he was always busy but she stuck it out and urged him on as much as she could. So much moss. So much.
Thanks to @Kondar for getting me started on the path. Helping me get past that disgusting 8x-85 grind, yay seamonster experience. Also he was a huge supporter in pushing me along. 'Bout time pff, so what if I'm almost 400 and barely Dragon?
Yay, now I can duel people and not worry about experience loss and actually focus on my offense.
Raves to Mhaldor for stepping up to the plate, especially with papa @Sartan back. It's nice to have a reliable team where we can make miracles happen (like slaughtering a huge wave of Hashani)
Props to @Alrena, @Exxia, @Proficy, @Cooper, @Kythra for being reliable and consistent PK partners, and @Puxi because he doesn't afraid of anything. And to the rest of Mhaldor for being able to follow fucking orders. Good job all around
With majestic strokes, you glide through the cool water and break into the open air. Glittering beads of water scatter in your wake, and a deep, fiery warmth grows within you as an aureate stream of light escapes from your gaping maw to tear through the very fabric of reality. With a thunderous roar, you spiral towards the yawning rift and glide through, landing atop the peak of Dragonspire Mount.
Lots of thanks to all the people who cheered etc., with special mentions to Hashan (now) and Eleusis (then)!

After a few months of living on my own and a month of my first job, I'm happy I'm finding time again to play. I have to admit though, coming back wearing nothing but a pair of boots, a cloak, and wielding my whip feels almost right for Talazar.
I just walked around Istarion for a while and the room descriptions are just amazing. It's so easy to overlook these little touches, but they're so well written. Thank you to whoever put in so much effort!
So... not to get too sappy, but I was having a shitty month RL-wise. And I was talking to @Austere and he said something that snapped me out of my funk and kinda reminded me who I am. I don't even know if he knows it, but thanks.
So I guess this is a rave for the community. It is crazy to come back after 5 years and be able to renew some of the relationships and see a lot of familiar people, regardless of faction. Now I just have to pwn the fuck out of Proficy over and over again, and all will be back to normal. Prepare yourself Prof, I'll be goin in dry. ;-)
So, after real life years of envy I have finally achieved dragon!
It's neat and the hunting is great.
Was caught between Gold and Black ultimately, but was eyeing Blue and Silver for a while! Seems like I should start collecting dragon talismans now!
So rave to all that and rave to Mhaldor for helping me, in particular;
@Cooperfor being a dope hl and putting faith in me where others wouldn't have, @Proficy for being a kick ass Tyrannus and the main target in every engagement leading me to snag all of his kills. @Locki, @Driden, and @Puxi for being good friends and shooting the shit with me while in realms. @Taraus, @Ailea, and @Alrena for consistent help, tolerance, and understanding, these ladies are really patient and have a ton to teach, thank you. @Aegoth for being patient and answering all of my dumb questions and for pressing raids and Mhaldorian flavor shouts all day, it's a staple of the culture! @Tesha for being everyone's cheerleader and for your consistent cheerful disposition. @Melodie for being sweet and helpful 100% of the time. @Atalkez@Kasa@Morthif@Kellonius and @ a ton of others for putting me in my place when I start getting lippy. @Rino for the awesome conversations and for throwing me runes and his crit pendant sometimes! @Hirst for the smooth yacht rock and classic rock tracks. Also to everyone for the runes, some I can't name, you know who you are! Thanks to everyone I missed too, you're all great and every little bit counts. Edit: @Leviticus <big shout out to this guy Thanks a ton guys
Gross fact: I got to dragon hunting pretty much only Arcadian Royals

(D.M.A.): Cooper says, "Kyrra is either the most innocent person in the world, or the girl who uses the most innuendo seemingly unintentionally but really on purpose."
Stayed playing Achaea for far longer than usual (I don't usually reach Serenade), but it was well worth it. Congratulations to @Ehene and all the rest for the Starlight Ball!
The Starlight Ball was a success! Thanks to @Valkyn and @Qirua for the immense help. Cheers to @Yzarin for winning Best Dressed and @Mathilda for being runner up. Well done to @Auri and @Ozmatiah for their dance! And thanks to @Twilight for the shout out! I had a lot of fun planning this, and I'm so pleased with how it turned out. The Library of Hashan is officially renovated and open.

(Also : I feel super guilty for filing bug reports)
eta: I wish there was a name attached to the bug reports so I could reply with a thank you.
If there's a bug, we want to know! You shouldn't feel guilty - the faster they're reported the faster they get fixed.
Welcome back, friendo.
Please...
Answer the call for more coders, so the beatings... uh... I mean GLORY can be spread around more!
i'm a rebel

@driden I know buddy.
In just that one stocking he pulled an Artie vial and pipe!
Don't take it so serious dude.
Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
