Sometimes I feel like Bowie has become Lando Calrissian and Swordfell is Cloud City  :P

I am altering the realm... pray I do not alter it further.

It's an Empire Strikes Back reference, mate.

Y'know, where Lando and Cloud City come from?

Why is Swordfell coming apart? the order was "No Disintegrations!"

We had about 18 people, lost one from Mendicant, one or two from the DNS server problem (I assume), a few more to immigration, and now a few from Sevastian's last jibe against Swordfell.

The Divides are cursed, I tells you, cursed! Fun...but CURSED!

You know it is going to be fun when you join a realm and the first thing you see is not a welcome but a disciplin warning from the judge to the duke of the capital for unsuitable language  ;D

I might get a next character in the Divides. Luria is also on my shortlist, though.

Is Luria still fun? I mean still maintaining its reputation?

It was always on my "dang, I really need to play over there once this character dies" list. But since its all unified these days is the golden age of Luria gone?

I'm expecting Luria to break up again soon enough :)

Well, a) there are plans to split Luria up into multiple realms under the Imperial banner at some undetermined point in the future, and b) you know that the Golden Age of Luria was when it was all Pian en Luries, right? ;D

The problem with splitting in more realms is that at some point one or more Kings will rebel as we saw happening.

It would be nice to have more tools to actually make this work better. Maybe go back to that discussion of Oaths and a few more good ideas I don't even remember where we had or where it is.

And I agree, PeL was the Golden Age of Luria.
"Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces."
