Think I'll run through the most Zephyr crowded place I can find.

That wasn't my thought, but thats what happened.

Got up at 5:45 this morning, and was wide awake. Went downstairs and
answered some email. Sign on to play. Sign on Mare's mule to hold a quality
Ingot for me. Hand Quality Ingot to Druss.

Leave Mayoi and decide to run to the Crater and get my Atlan weapon made
since no one said they mind, and we still have two quality Ingots made on
Ginger Linn. Sniper, you are so the man.

Get to Holtburg and Rhodry Messages me hello. Chat a little bit. Ooops, he
died while chatting to me. In the Tusker dungeon. He's been powerleveling
all night long. Need a hand, nope got lots of people here. Ok.

Head North west and run run run through the wooods, stopping only long
enough to kill frags, nope, no shards. Get to the Crater Pathway Lifestone.

"Um, is that offer of help still good? We can't get to my body."

"Sure is, but I just arrived at Crater Pathway. I need to run through there
and get to the Sho Roadside portal."

Oh. Well, we won't have time then."

"I will be in Mayoi as soon as I can."

Never been in the crater Pathway alone. Came in with Rhodry and the crew
once, and Rhodry drained some things and then we ran out. It was pretty easy
if I remember. Oh well, Hmm, right or left, I think we went right. I go
booking through Crater Pathway, no idea where I am going, and wow is that
place BIG. Soon, I have 20 zephyrs trying to catch me. And I keep running
into more.

Luckily, they don't do that much damage to me, and I only have to stop once
to heal, and then I keep running.

By sheer, unadultrated luck, (I guess) I run right to the exit.

Run out the exit. Run to the top of the tower, equipe str 3, coord4, axe
mastery 3, buy my mold, press the mold into Ingot, hand ingot to Golem,
Golem hands me peerless atlan axe. Elapsed time - 45 seconds, tops.

Book to the sho roadside portal, book to shoushi, portal to nanto, message
rhodry, "on my way to mayoi from Nanto now."

"In Mayoi now."

"I think we are o.k. lucifer the butcher is here."

"Thank god."

"We got it!"

"<whew>" I say

"Of course, it would be then that I lose my matty robe."

"Of course it would be, the servers are going down. :-)"

So, I got my Atlan Axe, and hopefully we will get the stone for it tomorrow.
I need Arcane Lore of 180 to use it, and mine is 153 right now. Anyone got
an EXTRA Arcane 4?

later
