With the reduction of the AOO following their utterance of the
Ritual of Desecration, there remains much to be done.  The
Land has been blasted and seared, and little remains of the works
of the Council of Lords.  We will persevere.
Evil has not utterly passed from the world, however, and the people
of the greater lands must not assume they are forever safe because
of what has happened.  Be not weakened by your survival, be not
betrayed by your trust, and be not undone by your success.
-The Lords of Revelstone

  Sheesh, the least they could have done is release my old friend
  Darrius before they all went away. He appears to be the *last* AOO
  prisoner.

  If someone manages to take out the garrison in bx22 (yeah, right),
  please make sure Darrius is released. Then again, if he dies, I'll
  get to find out if Clan Dhabaid really has cleared out of Hades.

  Thanks,

                                 Rumors



The Rebel Alliance is pleased to claim victory in the fight against
the AOO. We knew our strategy of beating up their fists with our faces
would eventually win.



      Well, another player has dropped and a lot
   of assets disappeared this time, but Clan Dhabaid
   is still there.  Also, two players still control land.
   Are they both AOO?  What's going on?
   Just how powerful is the number one player?
