solus_unusHello, players! My name is Lily, for those who don’t know, and I’m here to kick off the New Year with news of your first docking event for 2015 that is set to start on January 13th and last until the 24th (Day 341-344). I am super excited about it and hope you will be, too. So let’s get on with it, shall we?
In the early morning hours on Day 341, the Egime will touch down in Aspasia and remain until Day 344. As the gang plank lowers, candidates are met with a view that will no doubt take their breath away when they realise that this is no modern city, but one set so far back in time that it can only be read about it in books.
Though smaller in comparison to some of the other cities within the region, Aspasia is quickly growing to be the primary hub for all trade with its quick access to the Demitria Sea, as well as the rest of the country inland. Spices, textiles, animals, pottery, literature can all be found easily and in abundance throughout the city in various markets and temples.
While it seems Aspasia is happy and content, it mourns the passing of their King, Bion the Great. In his death, the citizens celebrate his life, and their freedom because of him with a month long festival in his honor that sounds throughout day and night in the various streets, temples and squares. Yet, there seems to be even more troubling the citizens and that is the fear of impending war. If asked, the Aspasian’s will be forthright with their fears of their beloved city being captured by the power hungry Golgotha empire who will convert and/or destroy the Aspasian’s; their culture and tradition exchanged in favor of their own. They know that those who resist will be enslaved, or killed and they know it will be a war that they will lose now that Bion is gone and has left no heir to the throne. They fear their army - less by more than half of Golgotha’s - will be forced into submission.
They are too vulnerable now without their king. But, they know they must fight.
Now they are curious if the arrival of the Egime is a gift from the heavens above and their deceased King to aid in their victory.
Will you let it fall into Golgotha’s hands? Or will you help Aspasia keep control of their beloved city?
