Yay! I looked last week, but I assumed it also would have appeared on the front page.

Ahh, the Tahtetso! Perhaps one of my favourite guilds in Celest. Well, top 5.

Actually, thematically speaking, Tahtetso are probably my favourite. However, the Celestines are broad, nigh all-encompassing, and really every guild is great and fascinating so I can't realistically pick a favourite guild. I'd probably just go with "Celest". Or "Lusternia". Take your pick!

Reminds me of when I was the GM of the Tahtetso for some reason. Totally miss that.

First Seren Trust.
A healing shrine of Auseklis is nearby. The shadows have been gathered here. Superimposed over this
location, an ethereal forest reaches up to the sky. Two enormous doors, made of legendary Moonhart
wood, lead into this dusty chamber. Gold dust seems to coat the walls and floor, sparkling like tiny
stars in a wooden sky. A partition of glass and wood divides the room into two parts, the main
entrance hall, and the area behind. This side of the partition has a carved wooden bench and a red,
woven carpet, whilst the area behind the screen is filled with chests and sacks of gold. Smoke
curling from her nostrils, a pure black nightmare paws impatiently at the crimson fog roiling
beneath her hooves. Siam Star-eyes lingers here, his figure traced in a soothing aura of effortless
serenity. He wields an athame dagger in his left hand. Undermarshal Haiden Ildaine, Herald of the
Callous Sands is riding on a pure black nightmare. He wields an ivory war hammer of resolute justice
in his left hand and a howling, argentine battle hammer in his right.
You see a single exit leading southwest (open door).


You've managed to brighten my day. I'm not kidding. I was upset at first, and then the sheer comical nature of the whole thing struck me. Made me mentally picture a bank heist. Heh.

You guys rock.

Edit: Ack, wrong thread. Can someone move this over to raves?

In a free-for-all, I often feel the urge to step into a 1v1 fight and pick off a kill on someone I don't think I would normally kill. At times like these, I look back to a bit of advice given on an aether from Enyalida: don't do that. It's rude, and there really is an etiquette about these things among most of the playerbase! I've taken that to heart, thinking that it's a common thing to be respectful of this etiquette.

Then I get Loth up to majorly insane, and suddenly panic because my ents are attacking me. I was about to message him about doing a nice job sneaking in disloyalty. So I scanned through my logs to see how he did it.

...Oh, wait. Those weren't my ents hitting me.

Enyalida - convince me to be a good person again, please.

I make it a 0.69% chance. (36/38)^92 x 100%. That's not green 92 times in a row. Unless I'm missing something.

You were still quite unlucky.
Ixion2011-09-19 20:13:51
Err I was using the wrong numbers. You math looks right, though I went about backwards. Math when tired not probably a good idea.

I'm no longer under a vow of silence, and I made and posted an Ask Estarra video. Must hide now, I'm pretty sure I embarressed myself. Lots and lots. Meer.

Just to bring up the lull comment there on the last page, - for one who isn't going back to uni and is still trying to find a better job than the one I have now, I'm pretty much logged in from when I wake up to when I go to sleep. I've noticed a big lack of people coming about. Though this time of night onwards it gets a little busier, but I'm just not seeing half the people I used to see.

Also in keeping with the above, lack of people for a resurgem coven made me sad earlier. And it was too late when someone decided to help.
