(Player Event) Second Campaign of the Magincian Crusade

[GalenKnighthawke]

Pride is among the most interesting of the Sins.

To some, to raise a sword against those who would be the nemesis of Virtue, when raising a sword seems hopeless and victory is far from certain, alone constitutes Pride.

I disagree. Defiance in the face of insurmountable odds is no Sin when it is in the defense of Virtue, and Humility is no Virtue when it leads us to not take up arms against Sin.

The second campaign of the Magincian Crusade will be this Friday (November 12), at 9pm Eastern. We will once again cast off from around the Library of Sosaria, south of the Yew Moongate in Trammel at coordinates 70-35 North, 40-25 West. Once again, I envision it as a simple affair. Gate in, kill as many of them as possible according to a battle plan I will outline that night, then leave. The forces of the demon lord IxaKaz met us last time; whether they will meet us again I cannot guess.

The time has not yet come, I am afraid, to drive the enemy into the sea. I can only pray that day will come. And the sooner it comes, the better.

But until then we need to keep making them taste their own blood, as much of it as possible.

The fate of Magincia is ours to decide, not theirs.

The Magincian Crusade will continue until we all die, or I die and no one takes up my sword, or until we drive them into the sea, back into the Hell they came from.

I shall be there, unless something unforeseen happens to prevent my efforts. Let us drive them back to the hell they spawn from to lick their wounds and bemoan their existence away from the jewel that is Sosaria.

To clarify, 9pm Eastern, so 8pm Central.

I wanted to clarify because the shard convention is to use Central time; I don't really know why I use Eastern time, usually. I guess because it's easier to make everyone count backwards than to make some people count forwards and some people backwards?

Many turned out for the Second Campaign of the Magincian Crusade, many thanks to them all.

It was a motley crew indeed; many kinds of people. Some I knew and whom I've often fought beside, some I didn't know until tonight. But we were united by our desire to make the of the demon lord IxaKaz bleed.

And bleed he did. Once again we showed them that we insist the fate of Magincia remains in our hands, not theirs. Once again we met their evil with Virtue, spell, and steel.

Thank you, everyone. The Crusade will continue, in one form or another, until we are dead or we drive the enemy back to the Hell they came from.

Though sadly other events prevented me from assisting in your organized 'Second Crusade', I merely were to acknowledge and thank you and others who have contributed to this and attempt to ensure the liberation of Magincia from its current occupation.
