Was Velious - Me a late 40's ranger
at 45 I was exploring velious and happened upon a group at a dock. So I chatted them up just taking my time socializing when this GINORMOUS turtle pops up and starts the beat down - they actually made quick work of Lodizal as he was called and the pali I was chatty with told me to loot him. I declined at first not wanting to seem like a mooch but he insisted and told me no one need the note and to take it. I didnt know what it was for so I looted it and continued the chatty cathy bit untill every one took off. I continued on my way happily unaware of what just happened.
Later I ended up with a guildy warrior I happened across trying to solo in EW, and having a hell of a time. We teamed up and I convey what had happened earlier and he clued me in on the eye patch, to this day I cant believe that I was allowed to loot, (much thanks if your reading this buy some chance - Dwarven Pali extraordinaire) anyway we commence to duo'ing and its going well untill we get swarmed. I belive Kodiaks.
We where just killing singles when a group of them poped and seemed to bee line right for us - they where poping faster then we could put them down and as they encircled us we had to choose in a moment: run or fight With a silent understanding we accepted the challenge and fought - we stopped the chatting, only breaking the silence to call targets and actions and fell into a rhythm. Healing his wounds as he taunted the beasts - I rooted the mobs as they encircled us while he was cutting through them in a dual wielding flurry of blood and steel. and those that tried to flee where snared and put to the sword. I assisted as needed and together we won the day - I lost count however the entire mob was put down one by one, and as the last one fell we stood in silence only half realizing the fight was over. No legends told nor songs sung of that day, just a bond forged in battle, an unspoken respect for the abilities of the other and an adventure in Velious.
