Shattered Stone

Posted on January 27, 2004 in Uncategorized

Well, it finally happened. Yesterday, as I was trying to teleport a group of fallen exiles from the North Field, my teleportation stone crumbled into dust. It came as a great shock to me, and I cursed myself for not being more careful with it.
After contemplating the matter though, I came to realize that I had gotten a decent ammount of usage from the stone. I had managed to use the stone more than 60 times before it finally shattered– nearly a hundred exiles got to experience teleportation first hand. Also, by some ironic twist of fate, my stone had shattered on the night of a full moon, which meant I still had time to organize a party, and obtain another.


After discussing the matter with the other Mystics in the lands at the time, I set about organizing a party for an FMOCR. We began gathering in the meadow shortly after 8 a.m., as I called upon exiles to help me in my quest. I contacted nearly everyone in the lands, but our numbers were few. Still, I was confident that we could succeed, and we set off for the Orga Camp.
Once in OC, we managed to take the first three camps with relative ease. However, the fourth camp gave us much trouble. We made a number of unsuccessful forrays into the camp, before the dreaful happened– our entire party was decimated.
Gradually, we were teleported back into OC1 by a helpful Orga Zealot, where we made another attempt at the camp. Unfortunately, luck was not with us, for the raid ended up turning into a massive rescue attempt which went past midnight, and into the wee hours of the morning. Some exiles, pressed for time, were even forced to depart.
Thus the FMOCR was a failure, and my teleportation stone was lost. My sincerest thanks and apoligies go to all the brave exiles who helped me with the raid. It was disapointing to lose a tool which I had come to depend upon in the past few weeks, but I relish all that I learned while it was in my possetion. I plan to release the results of my research soon, and I hope that exiles will find it worthwhile enough to continue supporting FMOCRs.
