Caranthir_ 2088 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2022 There comes a time where all summers must cede to autumn, all tides will rise, the sun must set, the moon looms above. A watchful gaze over that charred field, the Nauzican stood his ground, knowing that Haverlock was to win or to die. That Nauzican of Haverlock. As night came, plunged the earth into darkness, so did the volley. Arrow on arrow; rock on rock; smashing, pounding, clattering, clunking. A whistle, a cheer, a rasping of metal on metal, a scream, a groan, a quiet whimper. All around him Muffled cries. Boys begging for their mothers; Men begging for their wives; Women, too, gasping their husbands' names. Too many gone for so little. A cause, perhaps? Did they know any better? Was grass and soil the utility of man? Someone's war, somewhere. Long forgotten: a feud we did not know. Winter must end, the waves will return for slumber, that night did give way to dawn. But all that saw the sun was flies, and rats, and crows. Mangled and slashed. Not even human; Recognisable only by their purple and gold. Their faces are lost. Their stories untold. No funeral rites. No quarter. Was this martyrdom? The cries of mothers say not. That Nauzican of Haverlock. Some yet remain scattered, Drifting on a breeze. In Memoriam, Maxim Attenlund William Alstion Spoiler It has been a pleasure maining Alstion for the last four years, being a part of its high points and low points. Some people may troll it for various different reasons, but I've tried to never lose sight. This'll be my last Alstion character. I remember being a total noob in 2015, seeing Johannian Horen at its height - what a sight, and what a chance to have led it eventually. I tried to do right by it, sometimes I failed. I made great memories, though, from Senntisten to Savoy and everything in between. Thank you to everyone who joined me on the rollercoaster ride! EDIT: This post will also serve as my leaving post. I'm so sorry to everybody I disappointed and hurt along the way. Pushed friends away and said bad things to good people. I ate myself up and my teenage years playing lotc and trying to prove something to others, please dont do what I did. All the best, Reece. 36 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Stal27 262 Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) Eugen Barclay would look back and watch as his nation's retinue retreated from Sedan, a grimace forming as he carried his injured frame home. The boy would shut his eyes for a moment, simply casting a prayer in silence for those lost at the gory battle.

Franczhiz 4084 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Spoiler Hey guys if we can just respect the fact that someone PKed then it would great. In case you have any opinion about the person who has pked their persona then might I advice you to keep that opinion to yourself and not out it on someone personally on the forums. LOTC is meant to be a fun place and therefore we should give everyone the opportunity to let their personas go on how they want them to go; no matter in what circumstance. @Caranthir_I apologize on behalf of those who might have insulted you and I wish you the best of luck in whatever you are going to do outside of LOTC. Cheers! 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hephaestus 1317 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Spoiler Sad to hear you go. We haven’t known each other for too long, but you were always easy to get along with. Let me know if you’re ever in London. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
