The Runway |
I first met Minerva of Moom
of Thistledown in person when she and a few friends were on a mission to recover several
of their bodies, scattered near a formidable Skeleton Tower outside of Samsur. At that
time, she was very young! She's grown stronger since then, and was kind enough to pose for
the Runway in her new Green Mire Cuirass! I couldn't decide which picture of Minerva of
Moom I liked the best, so I put them all up! 
Minerva's Tale: I found these AL 95
lime green leggings. At first I thought they were hideous! But then they started to grow
on me, so I thought I'd find matching stuff. Easiest thing to think of was the GMC,
and I was level 12 or so at the time. I tried to gather a group, but come Friday, the only
person who showed was a Level 17 archer, Bow Fox. I heard it was going to be super-camped
and be a long wait in line, so I figured we'd be okay with just the two of us.

We got the first key, no probs (real easy). Second key, same thing.
Then for the third key, her friend Rapunzel (Level 19 War/Item) joined us. It was slightly
tougher. Foxy and I headed deep deep in that scaaaaary West side of the grave. We
got the final key, but Foxy was falling asleep (fun quest, huh?) and had to log.
Luckily, a few more people showed up. But not before a message flashed that Rapunzel had
died. A short while later, I see a message that Rap has died again. Cowhead had tried to
help, but they had a turn of bad luck. Meanwhile, I'm mostly healing myself,
buffing, and healing the other melee fighter who's joined us, when I notice that the Ghost
Wisp has spawned. Next thing I know, the boy explodes! (War spell, I think.)
There I am, alone in that room. Uh uh, no way =) I start
running out, and run into Cowhead and Rap on their way back. Rap keeps going for her
body, not noticing that there's no one there to cover her. (Doh!) Cowhead runs after her,
but it's too late! Cowhead is down in the room with me, but I'm out of mana, and a Barker
nails me. Well, we eventually got the GMC, but not before we had several corpses down
there. A player named Angelknight helped us recover our bodies.

So that's how I got the Green Mire Cuirass. I traded for some green
on black (with some teal stripes) Kouija Sleeves. They go pretty well with this cool
Teal Kite Shield I have, especially when I'm holding my acid stick! The cuirass looks
pretty nice with my dark gold heaume and (too bright) gold gloves. When I'm holding my red
orb, I look like a salad with gold trimmings holding an apple =). I like the heaume,
but I found a really cool silver horned helm that's pretty light, so I might go with that
and some black gloves. But I much prefer how a heaume looks, so much more... I don't
know, noble, perhaps. Well, that's the story of my armor. Barring losing it to some
luggies, or random shadows, or trading something for some nice lime green sollerets =),
that's what I'll be wearing on the Runway. Oh, I still don't have a clue what's in that
skeleton tower, but I'll find out someday!
