Dun'ilsar: ELF vs BoI
Posted on July 12, 2001 in UncategorizedDay 233, Year 542 of the Ascendancy
Today a Dun’ilsar was held between E’las Loth’mon Ferindril and the
Brotherhood of Independants. The contests was a unique one: each clan
had to designate a “bunny”, and that bunny would have to fall to a
Darshak Thug, a Large Sand Wurm, and a small rock. The clan who’s bunny
fell to these the fastest would be declared the winner. I was chosen as
the bunny. We were outnumbered 10 to 7, but we still felt we had a good
chance at winning this Dun’ilsar. The healer Healery was chosen as the
neutral exile that would act as a ref, and on her command “Go!”, the
contest was started.
The first place that my clan went to was Ash
Island, hoping to fall to the Darshak Thug first. BoI seemed to be
thinking the same thing. Both clans rushed to the Darshak Outpost, neck
in neck, trying to get their bunny to fall to the thug the fastest.
However, a stalemate soon broke out, as the opposing healers from both
clans would heal the bunnys of the opposing clan, making it almost
impossible to fall. That was when we decided to break the stalemate,
and I jumped into the Darshak Horde. Inside, Vequalir had managed to
trap most of the Darshak, and there were few Darshak to menace me.
Before me stood three Darshak pirates in green garb, and I decided to
take a chance by jumping into their midst. Luckily, one of the was a
Darshak Thug, and he chopped me up into nice, neat pieces, putting my
clan ahead. However, BoI’s bunny Boing soon arrived, and was felled by
a Thug as well. Magnels managed to chain me out of the Horde, and we
headed off to fall to an LSW.
Our next destination was the tiny LSW island,
which lies next to Kizmia’s Isle. However, once we had paddled our way
to the island, we again found that our opponents had been thinking the
same thing, for an entourage of BoI awaited us. I still managed to land
upon the isle easily, and get felled by an LSW. However, getting off
the isle was another matter entirely. More and more BoI arrived at the
LSW island, and made it difficult for me to leave. Boing soon arrived,
and tried to get felled by an LSW as well. Luckily however, a Deadly
Crawler got to him first, and his clan mates had to struggle to rescue
their fallen bunny. That gave my clan mates a chance to use their cads
on me, and I was able to flee the LSW island, and look for the final
obstacle, the small rock.
Magnels and I were the only one that left the LSW
island, while the rest of my clan mates distracted BoI. We decided to
look for a rock in South Pass, and Magnels had the bright idea to take
a shortcut through the Marsh. We reached S Pass in not time, and
proceeded to look for a rock throwing greymyr. However, the South Pass
was infested with wendecka, and that made it very difficult to stand
still, and get hit by a rock. To make matters worse, and Day Wendecka
arrived, and pounded me into the ground. Before Magnels could even get
a chance to heal me, I was hit by two rocks thrown by a greymyr, and I
was rendered very fallen. Magnels managed to wrap his chain around me,
and dragged me back to town, where I was healed by many healers. Then
it was off to the Passes again, to look for a small rock.
This time we decided to try North Pass, since the
S Pass was so plagued with wendecka. We traveled swiftly through the
forests, and reached N Pass in no time. There, we met Astor, and
proceeded to look for a rock to fall to. A flock of Blood Hawks decided
to give us some trouble, but we managed to drive them off with some
difficulty. Then we stood around waiting for a greymyr to throw a rock,
and it came soon enough, felling me with one blow. We had won the
Dun’ilsar! It was a great contest all in all, and it is nice that we
are finally moving up the tiers of the Mountain Forest again. Tav’riel
Ferindril, and for the glory of all clans! (Check out a Vision Stone of the event.)
