*Cero puts down his bottle and continues to run a stone over his sword deep in thought* "Valor, the courage to take action in support of one's convictions" said a wise man once, and all I have done so far is look for answers in books. Noble, but it is not what I am good at. I am a weapon of good and that is what I need to be doing. *He takes another swig of his ale and continues to sharpen his blade* The lightbringers need me. The realm needs help. It is time to draw blood at the very core of the problem. I will lead the charge on Valor and if I get the chance to plunge my sword into that monster Baerron Jael I will do so, and do so with a smile on my face. The Shrine of Valor must be cleared of this corruption. *Cero sheaths his sword and picks up is quill* Champions of Good, Followers of the Virtues, Lightbringers. The time has come to take back the Shrine of Valor! Please join me in a quest to discover a cure for the great Shrine of Valor. Thursday, February 23rd at 10pm EST I will be leading a party in an attempt to retake the Shrine of Valor. We will be gathering at The Chamber of Virtues in Britain. The journey will be filled with peril, so bring only what you can afford to lose. We will fight to the last man to bring this evil to an end! Long Live the King! -Cero Additional Information: Looting and Stealing from party member will not be tolerated, and you will be asked to leave if caught! Tamers, as we will be in tight quarters for most of the journey I ask that you keep your pets at home, thanks! Mount Free Zone, this quest will be done on foot and by boat! There will be a designated rest area that will be announced during the event. Please keep gating and recalling to a minimum. As always, this is outside guarded zones, bring only what you can afford to lose! Stay with the group, as I don't see this as a problem once we get started, try not to lag behind for we will not wait for a lone straggler!
While this time is not on the weekend, it does give people who normally do not have a chance to participate in these events the opportunity to do so which is nice
*As Cero finalizes battle plans for up coming fight, a messenger arrives* Sir! Reports from the Royal Navy has come in. Pirate activity has picked up off the coast of Trinsic! That bastard Baerron Jael, I knew he would cover his every weakness! Thank you Soldier, and get reports to our Admirals to prep the ships for a fight, looks like its going to be a rough one. Dismissed. Yes Sir! *Cero looks back down at the plans, and the map on his desk* He knew we would have to come by sea, having blocked all magical travel in the area. Now he has swayed the scurvy pirates to fight for him as well. Evil and Cunning, but the Light will prevail!
It is a great boon to have you lead this charge, Cero. We shall overcome these pirates. They will not stop us from removing the filth that has covered our Shrines.
Hrmph... nice to know your absent landlord is still alive, I reckon! Knowing this, I will raise a glass of Yew's finest vintage to his health... and yours, too! I shall do my best to drag these weary bones to the Chamber of Virtues tonight and lend what aid I may.
Thanks all for coming, hope you enjoyed it!! As for me, it was a crazy chaotic fun filled night!! Not only it being the first event like this I attended, but running the show!! Total rush! That sea battle was intense!!! Look for the full story in the Salty Dog in a few days!
