Old year

It has been a long year, filled with adventures. Here is a little compilation, gathered from the hundreds of pictures. These show some memorable moments with friends: just chatting, adventuring, preparing for battles, fighting...

Remember those missions? We did the tough fights together, and then Pasifika reported back and the mission givers all assumed she had won on her own... and sho got the rewards, too. ;P
And Besieged... there has been many, but I'll always remember the one where Ntfc nuked Gulool Ja Ja - outside Al Zahbi's gates. As I recall, he died while trying to get in... ^^; Oh, there was also the one where Pasifika got charmed and Phu nuked her. :O Luckily she had stoneskin up, but the lamias took revenge on poor Phu anyway. x)

One day there was a very tough NM Chaos Idol up in Delkfutt's Tower, and Kendraian charged it head on, with the brave tarudin Donthitme. They managed to keep it for a while, too, and then buy enough time for their whm to escape, not bad. Luckily other enemies there were a lot easier. ;)
Exping is rarely a pleasure, but with friends it can be fun. Not always easy, though, but there's often a kind soul ready to raise an adventurer or two. ^^

Oh, oh, and once Pasifika soloed the scary (and easy prey) Kraken in Qufim to save Lina from it! That was a tough fight indeed, but the brave whm was victorious! :D
Then there was the wedding, too... *_*

...and numerous other events, and untold numbers of memorable moment, but let's not list them all here. Even the video is less than a minute long... sorry about the fast pace and 'selective memory', but I had to at least try to keep this short. :o



Here's another little video, made to thank a special someone (you might be able to guess who when you watch it) for some specific favours (I think you can guess which, too ;P), but I hope it'll convey some warm feelings of gratitude to other dear friends as well. If I were a comet, I'd always light up your sky and illuminate your path... ^^

Silent Night...

It was *supposed* to be a nice, quiet evening...
The scatterbrained Moogles would need some more help with the presents, that'd be fun. And those elvaan kids, always planning something... Pasifika thought she'd follow them with Ntfc and maybe some others, that could actually turn out to be interesting...

But no.
All of a sudden it was

Mission Time!

Yay...

At least it's quiet here, most of the time.

Eerie, even.

But it's all gray, no colours anyhere...








Well, we made it to the top. Hurray. (Let's rest for a while.)

The Starlight Celebration~

It's time to give kiddies their presents, and greeting cards to fellow adventurers...
Here's a greeting from Pasifika, to all friends! ^^



And here's a clip about an ancient San d'Orian Starlight Celebration tradition, which apparently has been adopted elsewhere during the recent years. x)
When darkness falls in front of Chateau D'Oranguille, it begins... *_*

Free time...

What goes on in Vana'diel during maintenance...?
I'm not thinking about GMs running wild, but more along the lines of what would the vana-people do when there's nothing special to do, no beastman attacks, no quest-giving... :o

This might not answer the question, but it has kept me busy during maintenance, and a good while more. x)
It's hobbies like this that keep away that strange thing called 'life'...

The Shadow Lord, revisited

Last time Pasifika ventured up to the north in search of the great dark menace, she could do very little to thwart the threat - instead, General Phucrabiont beat the gigantic golem for her. As always, everyone - including Star Sibyl herself - happily assumed little Pasifika, whm lvl 50 at the time, had done it all by herself, and she was rewarded accordingly. ;P

Now Linathra told Pasifika the old pest was rearing its ugly head again, and Pasifika agreed to help her. This time she was much more useful in the battle to save the world... Thanks are due to the brave adventurers that helped in the Shadow Lord fight and the one leading up to it, but it was Pasifika herself who defeated the horrendeous Shadow Lord!
She really did, there's proof! (Click the pic to see better. Click it~!)

The world has been be saved!
...once again.

This is one White Mage you don't want to mess with!


If you don't mind... ^^
