    I have given Wilten leave from the Halls of Blackstone to undertake a mission of his own. I will turn this over to him.

    Gnomes of Mekalia, hear my words. From the day we were ran out of Mekalia we have not united until now. An army has invaded our home. It is believed to be the Forces of General Irinas Ulaben. They've taken over our Library of Mekalia and Thetalon Square. They feast upon our food and soon we will have nothing left. They have taken control of the Emerol Crystals and soon we may lose our source of magic. We have no proof it is General Ulaben that has taken our home, yet we seek to reclaim it. I ask you, in the name of Mekalia and Underking Anabna Thetagisp to rid Mekalia of these shameless thieves!

    ((Join Wilten in his march onto Mekalia on February 8th, 2014 at 3p CST. You do not need to be a gnome to join us and non roleplayers are welcome. Let's turn this march into one that's not just for Mekalia but to open up all the areas for us to explore. We will be meeting on the south side of Qa Riverbank and will march to Mekalia.))

    I shall be there, my countryman, with my clockwork wyrm at the ready to engage any who should have hopes of hindering our progress! For far too long have the gates of our fair home been closed to us...we who took our first breath in Telon in that our fair city. We who in the glow of the crystals worked to gain our I-4 badge and pledged ourselves to the service of our great Underking! We who departed our beloved streets to seek out the vile Ulaben! Heavy with shame should be the head of those who took our blessed home from us! I say, let the veins entwine, the cysts burst and all blood union be spent as tribute to our Underking and to free our home and our people!

    A strong ally to join in the march! You are indeed welcome as is anyone that would like to join. We will rattle the doors and shake the foundation til it is once again our home that we may return to. This not just a march for Mekalia but a march for all of Telon! Come join us friends if you can! This day will be recorded by the scholars of Mekalia for all to remember!

    I would like to be there but sadly I do not get off from work till 530pm cst on Saturday. I will be there in spirit. What would be nice if sometime Saturday there was a ninja patch before this event that reopened Mekalia. :D Here's to wishful thinking and keeping fingers crossed. ;) <nudges> Wigin & Tloch.

    ((Wish you could make it too Enkur! That would be cool if Mekalia opened up just before the march! I've been planning on doing one since we finished our guild hall awhile back and with VG shutting down it seemed pertinent to do it now. ))

    *Wilten straps his hand cannon to his side and prepares his bombs* There may be fighting along the way! Just don't damage our home!
    ((I was hoping to get some waves of mobs spawned as resistance to our march, but didn't get that arranged so we'll make do with what we come across))

    A noble cause! I will do my best to attend :)

    I spoke to Solarison and he says he will set sail for your camp this very afternoon.

    ((Just a quick update - there will be prizes awarded at the event - Clockwork Wyrms. Now this will be handled in an RP way but what the award winners will actually receive are codes redeemable for station cash. It would be nice if they choose the wyrm, but the SC is their own to spend as they wish :) ))

    Thank you, Dhelmar for allowing me the leave from the guild to undertake this mission. There were twenty three others that joined in the march. They were not all gnomes as we had many other races that were there to show their support. We slowly made our way to Mekalia and blasted any creature that tried to stop us. There were battle cries heard along the march with demands to free Mekalia. You would have been proud to see this event! I could tell they wanted to rush to Mekalia and it was difficult to restrain themselves.

    When we arrived, there was a battle already going on with the forces that kept coming out. We readied our weapons and our mounts and we rushed Mekalia! You should have seen it, wyverns and pegasus and others were swooping down on the gates. Some rode their mounts and some even ran!! Alas, the forces defending Mekalia were too much. There was a barrier of sorts that magically tossed us back and we were unable to penetrate it.

    I wish to make additional marches onto Mekalia until the doors are opened once again. I ask a continued leave from Blackstone for this purpose, but if I am needed I will be available to serve Blackstone.

    Wilten, my dear friend, you do our king, may his wisdom ever guide us, very proud! When next you march, I march with you! I say this time we leave diplomacy on the shores of the Qa River and we lay waste to those called Mekalian attendants that stand at the barrier so as to ebb the flow of those deep dark vermin! I say we let their blood flow like the Qa and their skin cover with cysts!

    ((would be awesome if we could do another raid event and attack the Mekalian NPCs and see what ruckus we can make!! I say RUCKUS!!! Ruckus for all!!! *grabs pickfork and shakes it angrily* Ruckus until all of Telon is unlocked dagnabit!!!))

    ((Thanks to everyone that showed up. I was very surprised at the turnout of this event. It was asked if we would have more marches and I'm willing to do more, tho we don't necessarily have to start at the riverbank barracks. If there are enough that are interested, we can set the next one up at a later time on the weekend to allow those that weren't able to make it a chance to attend. However, I won't have one on a day when another event is planned. We'll work around that. Aasha, please let us know who won the rewards that were given as I missed that.

    My original plan way back was just to show that there were a lot of us that wanted Mekalia reopened. It has been far too long that it has been closed. After the announcement of VG closing, I wasn't sure I would even go ahead with the march, but then decided to use it as a way to show we wanted other areas opened up to us as well. We could at least see the other wondrous places in this game before the shutdown. Again, I am very surprised and pleased with the turnout of this event. <bows to everyone>

    We have been discussing running a roleplay story that we had planned prior to the announcement on VG and if we can get it worked out we'll have that as well. This will be ran differently than the march as it follows a story.

    Again, thank you all for attending!

    Here's who attended: (My first attempt at posting an image here, so bear with me)

    Solarison, don't look behind you! Don't let your guard down around the rainbow whales. They may look cute, but when your back is turned... See the mischievous look in Piles eyes as his whale is getting ready for a snack?

    sorry I missed it, got in too late from building a snow fort. (we don't get that chance very often).
  20. Dhelmar Member

    ((Snow forts are important too and you have to build them when you can. :) We may have another march if Mekalia isn't opened up soon. If we do, it'll be scheduled later in the day and maybe we can get some mobs spawned along the way to offer resistance.))
