Year! The High Queen has asked me to give out these lovely presents in
celebration of the new year. Let's see what we've got for you..."
Rayeesh the Holiday Planner gives you Tiara.
Rayeesh the Holiday Planner tells you, "Wow, this is
really pretty! Take good care of it!"
Rayeesh the Holiday Planner tells you, "Now, if you don't like what you got,
you can hand it back to me and I'll pull something else out of my bag."
Rayeesh the Holiday Planner tells you, "Of course, it might be just like
what you got the first time! Just be sure you like what you've got before I
leave here in a month!"

isn't from the High Queen, though. In fact, I'm not entirely sure seh'd

New Hunting Grounds!
Ashikaga of SC reports: "Hi Maggie, I
have found an area containing the new withered creatures. Its around the
South West tip of the Dires looking towards Caul. So far I have only seen
variants of VoD type critters: Withered Tumeroks, Lugians and Drudges. I
have also found two new dungeons in the area. I didn't get much of a chance
to explore either before the Server was brought down."
Rumor:
The
Withering
Rumor:
The
Withered Atoll
--Dungeon: Ravaged Cathedral - 86.3S, 79.1W
Zerono, Cross-Slash and Duadhe Mahdi'in of HG
report:
"This dungeon had Bandies and at the bottom
where tummies just like the other dungeons. All 3 dungeons are identical.
Here is a quick walkthrough
From drop there will be 2 mobs (specified in previous emails). You will take
the east doorway in the main room you start. Take the north hall from there
and follow it around into a big room with a hole in the floor. It has big
wooden objects in the room you can't miss it. Fight the few mobs in that
room (I suggest fighting from the hall and letting the mobs come to you that
way the top mobs aren't on you all at once.) Jump down the pit and take the
doorway to the north. Follow it and take either left or right at the split.
There is a lever on both sides in the middle of the hall (also the middle
door). Pull that lever and go back to the split and take the opposite
way you went before. The lever on the right path opens the door on the left
and vis versa. The gate door will open go down a ramp and take the doorway
there. You will come too another split again, take which ever way they both
lead too the same spot. Fight the mobs there. You will be at a weird little
split. A ramp going down (north) a door behind you and a door to your left
and right. Go down the ramp and pull the lever, it will then open the door
to the west. Fight the few tummies and what ever the boss mob is (either a
drudge, lugian or a tummie) and it will drop the respective item. Portal
recall and run to the next dungeon. 7 day timer on all the quest timers.
About a 3-5 min respawn."
"The drudge dungeon you
will want fire, acid and slash buffed. Fire on the normal drudges acid on
the mystics and slash on the tummies. Use renders. The lugian dungeon you
will want slash and lightning buffed. Lightning for lugians and slash for
tummies again. Finally for the Bandie dungeon lightning and slash as well.
Lightning for bandies and slash for tummies again."

Zerono & Quiny of HG report on the Vile Sanctuary:
"The new dungeon is level 100+ and tieable. You can tie to the surface
portal and it has no level restrict. The only thing in the dungeon is lugies.
So far Cross-Slash and I have had no problems in there except that I get hit
hard by the hollows since I'm a mage. I do about 800+ per shot in war and he
as a UA does about 300+ and 600+ on a crit. This is definitely a great place
for a melee too make some exp. Outside the dungeon was great as well. will
let you know if we find any quest type item (see Anemic Atlatl below)."

New Quest - Tursh Totem & Royal Oil!
Thanks to Rawen of HG, Arvid of FF!
Quest Details:
Tursh Totem
& Royal Oil
NPC:
Tirenia, Royal Guard -
42.1N, 33.7E (Holtburg)
Tirenia tells you, "Please, the Queen is in dire need
of your assistance! A group of creatures recently assaulted one of the
Queen's hidden vaults. The few guards who were able to escape told me that
these creatures were after some sort of artifact."
Tirenia tells you, "These vaults house numerous objects of immense power.
Whoever these invaders are, we cannot allow them to obtain that which they
seek. I need you to infiltrate the vault and repel the interlopers. If you
happen upon the object they are after, return it to me."
Tirenia tells you, "These creatures cut off surface access to the vaults.
You will have to enter the sewers beneath in order to break in. Access to
the sewers can be found in an old temple at 77.2N, 33.0E."
Restless Spirit's ethereal
energies wash over you as its form dissipates into nothingness. You feel
changed somehow.
Violet and Funky of DT
report: "Basically,
I just wanted to let you know the reward for the
quest that the royal guard in holt was talking about. It is a pretty long
quest and pretty annoying. Lots of stupid rats that get you stuck in halls
but after a long time this is what you get:
Royal Oil, AL 300, Focus VI, Mana Renewal Other VI, Minor Willpower,
Moderate Focus, Willpower VI, Piercing Protection VI, Diff. 160,
1.0/1.2/1.0/0.7/0.9/0.9/0.7, Value 3,000, 100BU
They are sleeves and they are giveable.
You also get a mansion hook that sends you
to the defiled temple. And I
got like 25 mil xp or something. Thank you."
Ashida Kim of SC adds:
"Maggie, If I did the math right, judging off the exp rewards people hve
been getting, it is 15% of the exp needed to level."

few SSs for you of the LS before I died. I'll send those in ASAP. A boss mob
is in the Bandy attack. His name is Kur'graal.
Finally after 2 hours 40 mins,
hundreds of deaths, maybe killing blows and a very sore foot on my part (Banderling

Frostfell
Arvid of FF reports: "This was broadcast on Frostfell at 1:10 AM
EST:
A banderling war party has been discovered guarding
the road between Glenden Wood and Zaikhal!
The banderlings were amassed at the old Glenden Wood banderling tower at
31.6N, 16.7E. The tower’s entrance had been fortified by a large chained
door; after breaking through we were attacked by another group of
banderlings that came from the south, lead by a banderling called Barask.
Barask cheers loudly, “Wanga!”
Barask was defeated at 1:40am; it took another eight minutes or so to round
up the remaining banderlings."

Morningthaw
Machine of MT sends a few pics of the Banderling
Raid in Yanshi! He reports: "By my best guess I'd say
there were at least 100 people there and the battle lasted about 30 minutes.
There were many different types of banderlings all the way up to VOD-style
Paragons and Champions...lots and lots of them. The boss monster had the
appearance of a Champion and my guess was he came out of the building with
the door we destroyed. There were 10 or so Champions in there so I figure he
was probably just hidden in there among the rest."
Bob adds that the fight took
place at the Yanshi festival grounds and Uster got the kill.
If you have pics of the raids or the
boss creatures, send me an email! January 17, 2005 -
Thistledown
The Peddler's tower east of the Regina Cottages settlement is under siege by
a banderling war party!
I was lucky enough
to participate in the raid on Thistledown last night! I was in Shoushi with
another character when I saw the global, so I quickly logged in Maggie and
ran to the Peddler Tower at 54.1N, 17.0W! It was crazy! Mobs of Paragons,
Manglers, Hierophants, Champions, and more. Then after we got the door down,
the boss, Hurg'rhal, attacked! When he saw me, he said hello!  
What a friendly fellow, I
thought! But then, before you know it, I was at the lifestone, with only
/tells to fill me in on the action.
Diet Barq's avenged my death and received an
Ursuin Spike from Hurg'rhal's corpse. Out of curiosity, because it had a
workmanship stat, he tried to tinker it and was successful! His friend
Nite's Macer poses with the Spike below. I returned to the tower to survey
the damage and saw that the lifestone was littered with the corpe of the
Peddler. The Traumatized Merchant was found in shock on a nearby hillside!

Scavenger Hunts!
On the evening of January 20, 2005 an emissary appeared seeking help
with items to protect Dereth! The Magical Man of FF reports:
Broadcast from +Leo Netherlands>
An emissary of the royal guard has appeared outside Shoushi and is looking
for master tradesmen to assist him in crafting items needed for the
protection of Dereth. Heya Maggie,
Love the site. I logged on to see a message that said a master craftsman was
in Holtburg and needed some supplies to help protect Dereth. He said Fellow
up and you're going on a scavenger hunt. He wanted a Dinner plate imbued
with crippling blow and a perfect diamond ingot (apparently this is exactly
what the council needed). Naturally, it was spammed over the allegiance
channel. A fellow quickly formed and Brotherhood of the Blade got the
requested items in 7 minutes flat. Also there was a reward attached to this
quest.
The group I was with was Baruvin, Vanora, and Azland. Bauv, lucky for us,
had the ingot, and even more lucky was the imbue done by Vanora.
Broadcast from +Leo Netherlands> Congratulations to
the group of The MAgical Man who succeeded in providing me with the items I
sought.
Apparently he can't type.
The reward ended up being not so great. A Pot of Thanalim dye, a Writ, and
an Arwic Mines Sending gem, but it was great to see Turbine putting in more
live events.

you a list of two items which I will ask you to craft for me. The items are
required for a secret mission some members of the royal guard are about to

Escaped Convict Event!
Broadcast from +Leo Netherlands>
Though he loves magic, Ellis is scared of portal space and is avoiding
traveling through any portal. He can't be too far from Cragstone at this
rate.
Hello Maggie,
Yesterday on MT there was a broadcast from +Leo Netherlands about needing
help in Glenden Wood at the bar. Went there ASAP. There was a escaped
convict named Ellis the Grey. He wanted us to stop him by opening a Trade
window and putting magic items in them. So after running from GW to Arwic to
Cragstone then to Rithwic, we found him there. Ran after him till a little
before Eastham. Stopped him there. @tell +Leo, he came. Ellis The Grey
cursed me for stopping him and said he would not go back there then killed
himself! +Leo disappeared, got him at his lifestone and put Ellis back in
jail. +Leo came back and gave me 5 Mosswart Thanking Stones. They are
different from normal ones in that you can't hand them in and they are
givable also. I can hang them on my wall. I gave one each to the two players
that were right behind me. Love your site!
Case III
Braxtynn bint Baux says, "Cripes.........why
did he kill himself"
Braxtynn bint Baux says, "So sad.........does anyone know if he had a
Lifestone?"
Braxtynn bint Baux giggles
Ellis the Grey says, "I curse you Case III"
+Leo Netherlands says, "Okay, I will be right back, I must take care of him
first, then I will reward you, Case III."
Ellis the Grey says, "You and your family will be cursed for returning me to
Glenden Wood, By my blood"
You bow deeply.
You say, "Glad I could help"
+Leo Netherlands says, "No, please, Thank you. All of you."
Broadcast from +Leo Netherlands> Case III has found
and distracted Ellis long enough that I could apprehend him. Thank you to
everyone who has helped this evening.
January 21, 2005 - HG
Zerono of HG reports:
The Royal Guards are warning travelers near Glendenwood, a crazed member of
the Order of the Raven Hand is on the loose. Come to the Pub in Glendenwood
to find out how to help.
He escaped from the prison. We do not know where he is ultimately headed but
was seen leaving town heading West.
Guthima the Wise of Arwic has been visited by Ellis. He was last seen
leaving Arwic and heading West.
Though he loves magic, Ellis is scared of portal space and is avoiding
traveling through any portal. He can't be moving very fast, then.
Ellis the Grey has just been spotted near Cragstone.
We have learned that Ellis had family near Eastham. Perhaps he is heading
there.
Ellis the Grey has been spotted near Rithwic.
Ellis the Greu has been apprehended with the assistance of Kisskeen,
unfortunately he decided death was better than a return to jail.
Tehanu of HG reports on his conversation with
Ellis the Grey!
"While the event was
going on, I had a little conversation with Ellis the Grey. I don't think it
revealed much, but maybe someone can put pieces together. I started by
sending Ellis the Grey a tell that said something like "Magic is a dangerous
thing, but it can do good too." Ellis the Grey responded with something
about how he wants to turn his slaves into shadows and unleash them to
destroy Auberean. I then told him that Shadows cannot be slaves.
Then we got a message that he might be heading for Eastham since he is
rumored to have had family there. So, I tried another tactic...the "get the
mad man distracted off of destruction and focused on something else" tactic.
You tell Ellis the Grey, "tell me of your family"
You tell Ellis the Grey, "what wrongs have been done?"
Ellis the Grey tells you, "auberean is corrupt"
Lithea Sarmad tells you, "Ellis the Grey tells you, "Isee [sic] powerful
mages, many have pledged their servitude to me""
You tell Ellis the Grey, "auberean is not corrupt, but the minds of many
are"
Ellis the Grey tells you, "I have heard that people no longer seek the [sic]
allow the shadows to be our servants, that can not be allowed"
You tell Ellis the Grey, "the Hieromancers still tap the mana streams of
Dereth. Beware their awakening!"
Ellis the Grey tells you, "I seek the destruction of the Hieromancers"
You tell Ellis the Grey, "you may succeed but it will destroy you"
Ellis the Grey tells you "I will resurect as a higher being, even stronger
than the lap dog Asheron"
You tell Ellis the Grey, "aye, lap dog though he is...do not trust in
teachings that few fully understand"
After that, I told him to seek out Nuhmudira (my queen), and that she could
better counsel him before he destroys himself. He did not respond. I then
asked him if he walked the same path as the great shadow, Palacost. Again he
did not respond. Soon after, he was spotted in Rithwic, caught and committed
suicide. I guess we'll have to wait and see if he truly resurrects into
something more powerful than Asheron as he believed...."
January 22, 2005 - FF
+LeO Milan says, "She may be going to see the
obsidian span, though, as she is drawn to anything magical."
Fflewddur Fflam of FF reports: "There was a broadcast that +LeO Milan
needed our aid. I recalled to my LS in Glendon Wood, and found out, with the
help of my clanmates Cheese Slayer, Ciara ni Fyst, Sven Beornson,
Absolution, and Damien Sarin, that he was looking for an escaped prisoner
named Nuancil. Milan suggested she would head to the Obsidian Span, and head
east. I ran there and did not find her. I decided to head east to Arwic.
When I came to the orchard near what we call the A-Hole lifestone (where
many thieves and PK's once lifestoned ;-)), I came upon her. She muttered
that she needed components. I tried to open a trade window with her, but she
would cancel the trades. We ran from Arwic, then to Cragstone, then towards
Eastham. Finally, I managed to hand her 4 prismatic scarabs.
She stopped and said that she could probably use those. Then, +LeO Milan
showed up. He said she would have to return, as her cell mates missed her.
Rather than return, she committed suicide. Milan was not concerned, though,
as he knew where she was lifestoned.

+LeO Milan says, "Pitty. But I already
know where her lifestone was. She isn't escapting this time."
+LeO Milan says, "Thank you all for your assistance. Fflewddur Fflam your
assistance was greatly appreciated. Please accept these tokens for your
efforts today."
+LeO Milan says, "You may disperse those to your fellows who assisted her
capture."
You say, "Will do Milan"
+Leo Milan says, "Would you like a title reflecting your efforts?"
Thank you citizens and especiall Fflew ddur Fflam for
your assistance in re-capturing Nuancil
Milan awarded me a pack ursuin, a pack lugian,
a pack idol, and inscribed thanking stone, 7 other thanking stones for my
fellows/clanmates, and the title of Wardens Assistant!

some shadow leader spawned and opened a portal on death that teleport to a

Shiek Yabuda sends this pic from the Tormacke event on MT: "I was
helping a friend run Bobo when I saw the global that someone in Glenden Wood
needed assistance. Apparently Tormacke's master was kidnapped and he needed
our help. So, myself and Acid Lord recalled from the quest and headed to
Glenden Wood. In GW were ran into a huge mass of bandits. I ran into the
blob of orange blips and started casting ring spells. Once the battle was
over I was able to find Tormacke. He needed passage to Tufa, so I ran him
there. We actually had to run there from Yaraq, because I had happened to
forget how to get to Tufa! So.. as we were arriving, his companion was
murdered. We cleared the bandits in the area, Tormacke left, and that was
that."
