"Istaria has many Saris, in fact it's the MMO with 7 lives."
I beg to differ, Istaria is GIFTED as well as having Saris Gifted
as a native race. Istaria may have lived 7 lives so far, but
being gifted stretches that out to an Eternity of Lives.
*crosses claws*
I was here during the bleakness that hit the Empire during
the times of EII and the Bankruptcy before that. The days
when you did not know if you would be able to even get to
the server to login. I never stopped waking then, and have
not stopped ever. I like many I know here, will remain until
the blackness rolls over the Empire and we suffer our final defeat
from the Withered Aegis.
Do I believe Istaria has a Future? - For as long as I can wake and
see the world I call my Home, yes!
Do I believe it will grow? - with all my Heart I wish to see this world
restored to its previous glories. When there were 10 Splinters of
our Empire and we saw 100s of newly gifted each day. (I firmly believe
it should never grow to be the size of WOW - it would be ruined IMO)
I continue to pray I win the Lottery BIG, my first act after depositing
my check would be to visit Virtrium's offices and negotiate an investment
to brighten Istaria's future flame.
May the light of Istaria never be extinguished!!
