When I first joined the server, I was watching players and trying my best to RP  (at the time, I had a "Hoodie" avatar

... oops). I finally found one person who didn't completely hate my choice in skin and so we started chatting (both in RP and OOC). She introduced me to another of her friends who introduced me to a group of people who all moved to caves under the ocean off the coast of (That one quartz mining island).

Around that time, I took an interest in one particular member of the group and I joined her faction of Lanilor. Lanilor was the single most impressive thing I had seen on Minecraft at that point (that didn't last too long, mind you, but still long enough to mention).

After a few months of epic cave-dwelling living, small arguments broke out between members of the group and we pretty much all split and went our separate ways. That almost made me want to quit the server, but then some strange stuff started happening.

First, I got introduced to some awesome new people [USER=4077]@Omnomivore[/USER], [USER=3919]@Miss_Confined[/USER] and decided to stick around.

Second, I joined a new faction because Lanilor left me remembering my old group and everything just felt.... Off after the group split up (even though very few of the members were ever IN Lanilor).

I joined a faction to help get them off the ground since I had officer experience in Lanilor and started becoming happy again, but something still felt amiss.

One day, by happenstance, I did a /seen on a handful of my friends (some from the cave and some more recent) and noticed they were all in a faction called Mithril. I had heard of mithril from quite a few people and didn't know what exactly to expect.

I was told to download Team speak to just chat with everyone again (I had used skype before). It was then that [USER=4881]@BillyWantHam[/USER] and the rest of my friends "persuaded" me to join.

Though I have been offline for a long time and many of my friends left Mithril, I still consider that scruffy city my home now.
