Turmoil in NoreenLand

[Kirin]

Well guys, looks like we're still hloding Beno.. the doors need to be repaired after Gueuze himself fought off a horrible horde of trolls (^^)..
Noreenland needs to be renamed, its just to cheery a place for its name ;P

We've claimed Benowyc and been holding it since 6pm on Saturday. Most of the guild stopped by, Gueuze, Tomeralin, Noreen, Darith, Tydd, Lifesbane, Kirin, Pesadilla, Verri, and probably a whole lot of other folks I'm forgetting. Lifesbane did the carpentry work while a few of us ran wood to him... over and over and over. I think I personally spent 4 hours on wood train detail, and I know Gueuze and Lifesbane was there with me for most of that.

We got the outer door upgraded to 7, the inner to 6. We used elmwood to level 6, then oak, so we did it the absolute cheapest way we could have. Lots of trips, but less money to use the cheaper wood. Even still, I spent about 700g there this weekend. Over half that money went to repairing our level 7 door after some yahoo mids thought they'd try to ram it down. We took their punk asses out though.

Then Gueuze was up checking the doors... Rush had rolled by pretty recently and messaged me that "it's a shame to put up such nice doors and leave this place undefended..." heh... and some punk hibs came by to beat on the doors. They forgot siege, though, so most of them couldn't have been doing much damage. They were on the doors for like 45 minutes before Noules rolled by to wipe them out, and they were only able to do about 25% damage to it. Sigh.. but that's 5 repairs @ 2k oak per repair, or about 42g per repair. Another 200g down the tubes on wood.

Oh, the sacrifices we make for NoreenLand!

But seriously, owning Benowyc has been a great time. I logged there last night after the relic thing, and I'm planning to hang out there and craft a little. Doubtless the mids will be back to take it in a futile attempt to pressure us to go on the defensive. Fortunately we have nothing left to lose... so we'll stand with Lord Benowyc til they pry the gate keys from our cold, dead fingers.

I'll be there sometime today if we need help repairing the doors. Life is already there so i can log in every little while to check up on the place

[Noreen]

I'm gonna head out there now and make sure the doors are tip top
