Bandit Lord Event and a demotion (Friday 19th 7pm Server Time)

[Soul]

Written in a careful and resolute hand,

Soon (Friday the 19th at 7 pm server time), a coalition of the Queens Guard and the White Tower will move against the Bandit Lords who have plagued Andor and the lands between our nations.

For too long, these criminals have been allowed to carve out a place within our borders, threatening the safety of our people and challenging the authority of the Crown. That ends now.

We will remove them root and stem and reclaim the lands they have taken from those we have sworn to protect.

This letter is extended to all who would stand with us. Aid from every nation is welcomed, for the threat we face is one that extends beyond a single border. However, those who come to assist must understand that this is an Andoran operation. The Queens Guard will hold command, with the White Tower acting as our second in command.

Order must be maintained if victory is to be achieved.

It is with a heavy heart that I must also announce changes within my own ranks.

Adael Le'Ada has been reduced to the rank of Sergeant.

Gareth has been removed from military service entirely.

These decisions were not made lightly. Both have served Andor with dedication, and their efforts have been valued. However, leadership carries with it responsibility, and there have been failures across Andor, particularly concerning the Bandit Lords who have been allowed to gain a foothold within our lands.

With the nobility now calling upon foreign powers for assistance, this matter can no longer be overlooked.

A crown is not measured by the strength of its armies alone, but by its willingness to correct its mistakes and protect its people. I will not allow pride or personal loyalty to stand above the safety of Andor.

The Bandit Lords will be dealt with.

The lands they have taken will be reclaimed.

And those who threaten the peace of this realm will learn that Andor still stands.

For Andor.

Queen Morgase Trakand, Queen of Andor, High Seat of House Trakand, Defender of the Realm

For those who attended the Bandit Lord event, stayed from beginning to end, and put their hearts into the roleplay, you have gained access to the exclusive reward.

I have mentioned this elsewhere, but an exclusive reward is something that can only be obtained by attending certain events in game. More information about these rewards can be found in the Exclusive Rewards thread.

Today’s event was truly something special, with nearly forty players joining us. I want to thank everyone who showed up and gave their all. You stayed in character, committed to the story, and helped create an incredible experience for everyone involved.

I am extremely grateful. You all made the night memorable for me, and I hope I was able to make it just as memorable for you.

I wanted to take a moment to “immortalize” everyone who helped make this event what it was. There were likely a few others who attended that I may have missed, but I wanted to recognize those I saw and make sure you all know that each of you is a part of what makes this game worth creating.

Thank you.
