I'm glad you came, @Verily, and I'm sorry I ran out in the second half.
My avatar is an image created by this very talented gentleman, of whose work I am extremely jealous. It was not originally a picture of Amunet, but it certainly looks a great deal like how I envision her!
Just want to add another rave for the new direction things are taking in ex-Shallam. Really good to see how positive people are in general, and to see how everyone's banding together. With Aurora and Deucalion as well, New Shallam could be destined for some really exciting times.
@Amunet and @Sohl, just d'awwwww, you guys are the best.
The sweltering heat of the forge spills out across the land as the rumbling voice of Phaestus booms, "I want you to know, the Garden reaction to that one is: What?" The voice of Melantha, Goddess of the Seasons, echoes amid the rustle of leaves, "That's the censored version."
Been MIA for I don't know how long but I came back, harassed Corbeaux a little like it was totally casual, still saw the same old gang around and doing pretty well, Mathonwy has returned, and Babel has his own holiday apparently.
It's like I never missed a beat. I missed everyone.

@Halos, I wish you weren't an enemy so you could have come. Soth, Silas, and Melodie, too. Frienemies are so much more interesting than regular enemies, but game mechanics and anti-fraternization rules make it so difficult.
Something needs to be done about this. I think everyone's missing out on fun RP times. Perhaps someone has an estate in the drowned Shallamese subs that could serve as neutral ground, supposing they don't move them all up to new Shallam.
Also, fun party @Amunet, even if it was quite a bit outside of Valeo's normal comfort zone. I promise to bring more enemy to the frienemy equation next time.

Technically, I'm not an enemy. The only thing I raid Ashtan for is their buffalo.
That said, the fraternization rules have bit me on the ass before. It sucks I can't actually drop in for a good game of spite and malice, much as I would like to.
Hopefully at some point, a middle grounds can be worked out.
And I love too Be still, my indelible friend That love soon might end You are unbreaking And be known in its aching Though quaking Shown in this shaking Though crazy Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
Speaking of enemy RP, spite, and malice, rave for @Corbeaux. Talk more, please.
Also, rave for the generally positive direction things have been taking lately and the people who made that happen. Also it looks like I might have an Order again in the very near future. With an active Patron. An actual, active, Patron who isn't expendable to the storyline.
There was going to be a small rant about people and their problems at the end of this post, but I just checked my email and it is replaced by a rave for Achaea's admin and their surprisingly quick responses.

Hah, thanks @Jiraishin! I always enjoy our malicious talks as well. There's been a ton of great things keeping me busy in-game, though I mostly blame the hood/gem combo. I'm sure we'll catch each other soon enough.

Darnit, so close to Grand Achaean.
Merry Christmas you vivisecting bastard.

@Aurora - not sure words can just sum up how dang awesome She is.
@Tanris - Thanks for keeping me on my toes!
Refugees & Nomads- Just thanks for being a wonderful source of near constant roleplay. I've enjoyed it very much.
@Caneloc - Thanks for putting up with the snark and making me laugh.
@Barrons - Pudding, cupcakes and kittens.
Just a big thank you and a rave to everyone I've interacted with, be it in combat, roleplay, whilst I'm hunting or other times.
Edit: There, is that better?!
See: people still considering leaving.
Sorry, you said 'Druid'. I assumed it was obligatory.
Edit: Suggested an alternative target at first. Removed it because I'm wearing a Santa hat.
