    [The Shores of Arcas, painted upon arrival in 1705]

     

    The wind blew through the woman’s red hair. Her hands gently ran along a soft, metallic coin, as she ran it through her fingers, back and forth. She taught herself that trick, a simple dexterity exercise which calmed her easily. Atlas was far behind them. Serrimor was far behind them. The cold, snowy wastelands were gone from the presence of the descendants, as was the Vaeyl.

     

    So why was she so conflicted?

     

    She asked herself this question often, wandering through the snow in search of those she knew. Sure, you could take every day for granted, it sure was what she did, sitting upon the piles of wealth she accumulated through many different means. But the wealth was gone, as was many of those she knew. The endgame never came around for her, but she felt as if what was past, was truly a prologue. Perhaps she should look back to Axios for her solution, after all, it was a simpler time.

     

    Sleepless nights of reading in the quiet halls of Dragur, the antiquated, yellowed pages nearly see-through under the candle-light. Her younger-self didn’t care. She simply enjoyed being there, in that moment. Years later that library was frozen over. Years after that, Axios was abandoned. She was conflicted then too, honestly, but she got over it. Finding new accomplices through it all provided her solace. But another cataclysm, another abandonment? That’s when she realized something was inevitable.

     

    How many people died when Axios froze over, damning the fields that grew the sustenance of the many nations around it? How many people were lost or left behind when they  stepped through that gate? She continued to think, and think, and think, until her train of thought shifted course. Now, she was thinking differently. Brighter. Better.

     

    How many people could she save? How could you bring someone hope in a time that’s so dark, you don’t know if you’re even going to see the sun? How can you feed those so in need of food, that they subject themselves to near-slavery just to get by? What extraordinary threats laid ahead of them in Arcas?

     

    Her hands gripped the coin even more, as she held it up. She had them made a few months back, as she’d let the sun’s light beam across the metallic luster of the disc. She had an idea, one that could help so many, and bring safety to the world. She pocketed the coin, and stepped to the ship’s edge, and stared out. Suddenly, a loud shout bore through the silence, through the gentle sounds of waves crashing against the sides of the ship.

     

    “Land, ho!”

     

    Her eyes directed towards it. Arcas.

     

    Atlas was far behind them. Serrimor was far behind them. The snowy, cold wastelands were gone from the presence of the descendants, as were the Vaeyl. She was conflicted. She was upset. She remembered her past.

     

    Blood Trail.

    Pierced Intestine.

    Freedom.

     

    “I’m ready..” Alexandra said, her eyes staring towards their new home, one that hopefully lasted them a long while. She wasn’t afraid. She had nothing at all to lose. She knew the secret of a perfect world.

     

    The thing about having everything?

     

    You have so very much to lose.


     

  2. Something tells me that “I’m an American” and “The staff takes away my unalienable rights”, then referencing enlightenment thinkers is just a way of making yourself sound smart and free and all that when you could’ve just aired your real grievances
    Both this and the whole “comparing orcs to oppressed African-Americans” ordeal which happened earlier creates a two-pack of laughability right there

     

  3. In all honesty, my opinion actually in an upwards spiral. I used to worry a lot about the state of LOTC and stuff, but by teaching myself that being hysterical and worrying too much is the worst thing you can do, I’ve basically used LOTC as a way to relax and kick my legs up after a long day. I’ve found a specific niche of people that I enjoy, I get all the RP I want, and I’m perfectly content in how I do things. I think that if you set believable and realistic goals for oneself, you can really grow your enjoyment of things. The server most definitely has its problems, but by focusing more on the fun that I have and the people that I’m around, the problems aren’t glaringly horrible in my eyes, and I can easily just not focus on them.

    Strange how we’ve gotten to this point, huh?

     

    We’ve reached a point which I could properly consider the end of LOTC as a whole, honestly. I fear it as much as any other person does. I even teared up a bit while writing this, but the way I’ve been treated by @FlamboyantNewEra needs to come out. It’s not okay.

    My first example is utterly damnable. My former MAIN MAN, my HERO FlamboyantNewEra calls my Frog memes bad. What the hell, man? I thought we were friends, and this is just utterly painful for me to have to even experience... Flam, why would you even try to do this to me? All I’ve ever done was be nice to you, and you have to bully other players like this? This is arrogant, trashy bullshit which should not be on this server.

    In an utterly brave move, I decided to call Flamboyant out on his treatment of me and other players, and as you can see, I have support in Many players. You can see the fear in the words that he had put into this Discord, he knows he’s guilty of these crimes.

    See him now, reprimanding me for posting pictures of a fat cat in a public Discord chat, as if he had any jurisdiction. I believe I would’ve been banned if I did it any more, due to the hegemonic nature of the absolute STATE of FlamboyantNewEra

    To quote J. R. R. Tolkien, “Excuse me sir, you are being rude!”. This is an absolute upset from a man I used to believe was one of the greatest LOTC staff men ever, but now I’ve seen his true colors, and you will too. Thank you for reading.

  5. The woman knew she was in over her head.

    “Hopefully This one doesn’t capitulate, like last time.” Alexandra Bradshawe would scoff, slowly opening up a chest, pulling out an antique, blue and white Global Assembly Banner, a contentedness adorned upon her lips.

    Aelfrun? You mean tragic(tm) murdered clan chick you wanna use in MY world? Calling me out on MY thread here? Alright kiddo, sit down and buckle up.

     

    I think playing a high elf named Nemir who hasn’t died yet because you’re dating the DM but is super depressed really reminds me of a certain poorly made LOTC character ?

     

    Let’s review. Alpha belcher? I’ll concede there, but let’s be real you’re the alpha beta here. Playing a genderless character and lording over your belching powers? A 12 year old genderbender in disguise! Almost like that @Whiplash guy over there.

    e-excuse me sir...
    spare coochie?

    flamboyant
