Starcon has taken over the Wolf House and the Zento Hub after getting to know him a bit, I consider him to be a all around decent and honorable person and believe he will keep both of those houses as public assets for the Siege Community.

Holden Caulfield (Hope I spelled it right ) The Wind Maze House while we often disagree on things, we also often agree on things. Overall a good guy and someone I respect. The Wind Maze and the Wolf House are about equal in what they offer but different. Holden has also said the house would remain public.

Freelsy The Zento Garden House close to town, yet secluded. I have known him for a long time, Long before the Tyrath name was put to a Siege toon. He is a different kind of cat that marches to his own beat. He has given more away than many will ever own. Enough said.

Some have asked why I did not hand these off to GIL as apparantly several folks had thought I would. I have a lot of respect for GIL and I have a lot of respect for several other Guilds like TDO, B^A etc and have friends in many of the guilds. Now some might say this is just a game, let me just say that is total Hog Manure, for anyone that has played UO for than a decade let alone 18+ years it is a part of our lives whether minimal or significant it is a constant thing in our life to some degree. I personally care a great deal about UO and if I can do something to maintain or improve the Siege and Legends Communities at this time, then I will do what I believe is best. Giving these houses to independent and fairly nuetral people is what I believe is best. I have hand delivered a few of the inheritance packages myself to people I know fairly well and have tried to give folks things they will find useful or will enjoy. Doc is going to help me with getting things in order and delivered, Yeah I know not nearly as exciting as packing everything into the island keep and letting it go IDOC :)

I am keeping the island Keep and the houses to either side with my 3 oldest accounts in the event #1 I win the life lottery and get better. #2. some family member decides to take them over or #3. Just make someone check the island regularly to see if that old Jack asses keep has gone IDOC yet :)

However it plays out I have had a lot of fun sorting my junk out and getting it bagged and book with each persons name in the bag for them. Shard Noobs and obvious fly by nights I am not giving anything to. That is not to be mean but to try and keep stuff out and in circulation on Siege.

And apologies if I did not stay coherent through this. It is difficult to stay focused and on track at times :)

This reminds me of the giveaway of Bilbo Baggins before he left to his last journey. He prepared little presents for friends and relatives, even for the Sackville -Bagginses ;)

I always loved this part of the first chapters as it showed the great character and the humor of this protagonist. You are showing alot of character and humor, too. That's why this rotten and divided community is respecting and (yes) loving you.

So, lets win this f*****g life lottery, Sir!

I like it that you did this in a way to help UO and you may/may not have hurt some people by what you did in the long run you did what was in your heart and you can never go wrong doing that. You will be back because you are to ornery not to.
