For years now it has been my quest, or "impossible dream", to build a guild unlike the countless other guilds. The dream was to stay grounded in lore and based in role-play, to be active in end game, and a force to be reckoned with in pvp. Most importantly, I wanted members who hold themselves to a much higher standard of conduct than the average player.
So, I struggled, following my vision quest. Carrying the banner of a gaming utopia. Thanks to many of you around today, and many others along the way, the journey has been remarkable.
It has been my privilege to lead you. However, Ive been jousting that windmill a long time now. It is time a champion picked up my lance and flew the banner, for I am in need of a rest. In a short while, I will be leaving WoW for an indefinite time.
I would hope a champion among you emerges to carry on the dream. I call for someone of true quality. Someone of respect and virtue. Someone brave enough to face ridicule and disrespect. Someone strong enough to care for the weak. Someone wise enough to make judgements which unite and strengthen the guild. Someone mad enough to joust windmills even when they know they're not giants.
Your Friend,
James
