My Lands: Black Gem Hunting

It was a regular day. Same as any other. I was making coffee and looking for daily task on my PC. After finishing, it was time to play a My lands. Login to game and first thing first, checking messages and opening gates of my towns. Since we have some threats from clan that we are in war, i was thinking better to play safe than sorry today. Dropping some players in the temple was a nice time to start clearing those evil monsters that were attacking me and taking my resources for years and years across different galaxies. As soon i start to play as Punisher to them, one brave Explorer come back with news. "It is true, Arhi Ruin exist". For a few seconds, there was no sound. He then repeat himself and start saying that he was going deeper in the forest than anyone before him. He was explaining "Cursed Forest" full of Dark Elves. How did he manage to go that far? He was saying that was pure luck. Passing thru some mud, it was so sticky, that stick to he's cloth and since he needed to blend in the covered whole face and manage to pass all control spot from Undead or Dark Elves scouts. He could not believe something so simple can save he's life. He manages to skip unnoticed because of something simple as mud. After he reached that corner of forest that only elders were speaking of, he found reward. It was Arhi Ruin. With wind in he's back, he was running back to bring us this news. Mobilization start immediately. From all corner of my Kingdom, all men between 18 - 50 Age were mobilized. They start to coming in to "Suma" Town for going in to the biggest quest of their life. Conquering Arhi Ruin. In meantime since we share kingdoms with Humans that was guarding east border and since we were scared from ambush from Undead that sharing Cursed Forrest with Dark Elves we make our bounds deeper with Human Race and decide to share quest together with them. It was decided. We march for 1 Hour. It was the longest 1 Hour in my life. I try to stay calm and not show in front army that my hand shaking. I just know that when i draw my sword, it will be steady. To speed up time, i was visiting Druid Glade to get some blessings from them. Since i was a warrior with a paladin side, i needed their blessings. From the moment i have entered Glade they were glancing and just sad to me "we know why are you here". Without hesitation, i was going direct in the main room and kneel down before "Lord of the Forest". He stood up, lay hand on my head and sad to me. Do you remember prayer from our Elders? Without even taking my breath i start saying "Blade with whom I have lived, blade with whom now I die. Serve right and justice one last time. Seek one last heart of evil, still one last life of pain. Cut well, old friend, and then farewell." After i was saying whole Town fell that energy, fell that we are blessed and there was no more fear of dead only fear that we will miss it and someone else will conquer it before us. An hour passed and we start our march. March of the United Kingdom of Elves and Humans to land to Dark Elves and Undead. As we were passing, the forest land starts slowly to heal from dark and evil energy. Scouts saw our "The Unstable Force" and try to announce alarm, but we manage to cut them down. We even manage to kill all crows that were spying for evil master "Fanlotel". There was no chance for him to gather and prepare. When he sees us, it is already too late for him. There was no escape. Our march was going faster and faster as we were approaching ruin. Some solders say that we were moving faster than wind and that was the reason why their scouts didn't have chance to see us or smell us. I can't imagine how it it was for them, but we were feeling like "Lightbringers". When we run in to battle, it was like new dawn for us and last for them. We strike them down fast and hard. We were hitting with a mission not to kill, instead to purify. To cleanse their spirits, and we have done it good. On first wave we lost lots of infantry and carriers, but second wave was deadly. There was cavalry running in and cut they down like small flower under horse. That was the main strike that was deadly for them. After we cut down the last one of them, our "Mistress of life" join in and resurrect the fallen one. There was no man left behind, everyone last one was brought back. News of our victory was spread fast through kingdoms. Lots of graduations were coming to our doors. Hope was back that we can maybe make some new alliance and even make old one stronger. March home was much slower but with lots of songs from bards that start spreading our noble deeds. Song of "Alliance and Sharing" moved around kingdom and reach in every hearth build a new hope. To prove our story, i share some pictures from our quest.

What a lovely Sunny day. It was really warm for this time of year. I was siting in Royal Garden when a messenger run to me to give me notice. He was shaking like a stick on the wind and mumbling. "The Ancient Fire, the Ancient Fire burns". First reaction was that is not possible. It was not burn for Eons, but still something didn't give me peace and i need to check it by myself. I was running to the Castle to see it direct from my balcony, and it was true. The signal was there, we are going to war. I send my best commander to Griffin to gather all information from our alliance about the quest. Meantime, we were gathered our forces and sit thigh and wait for instructions. Commander was back and there was no time to waste. March start in 1 Hour. Coordinate was set launch time was set and we needed to support our alliance. There was doubt in myself i must admit and i needed to speak and consult with "Cardinal". I moved to "Abbey" and speak with them. It was important for us to know the goal of our mission and to receive blessings of holly people. They had no doubts that this is a Holy quest to cleanse evil from "Cursed Forest". They even open my eyes for letting me know that Elves leader comes from Order of Paladins same as my Ancestors. When i hear those words, our bonds were stronger than ever and without any more doubts we start gathering and soon marching together with or "brothers" to cleanse evil from the forest. One's again, Elves and Humans were going in to war together. We didn't know much about or quest to begin, but we show our alliance bound ones again. In the forest, our swiftest riders cut down scouts and our archers assist Elves in cutting down ravens. We were moving and clearing everything in our way. First time i saw that Elves can heal land when they pass. I had feeling that we are having Sun above our heads and that he follow us all time. We reach Arhi Ruin. They were not prepared and we rushed in. That was a rush move that lead to imobilisating 90% of our army in to mud. We didn't fall back or be scared from the battlefield. We saw that we are with brothers there and that we stood shoulder next to shoulder, back to back with Elves. It was magnificent. It was glorious. Even we were few, we hit them hard in heart and hold the ground in middle. They were not prepared for defense and our assault was devastating. Enemy fall down after two waves of battle. After it we gather last remaining strength and take out our friends from mud and start moving back home. On our way back i have heard beautiful songs from Dryads and Bards that were singing like never before. This is maybe our story of conquering Arhi Ruin, but i think it is more. It is a story of Sharing and Unity.
