The little Hitlers of the Empire.. While the more conservative of the Imperials are struggling to feign innocence and salvage favorable relationships with the independents, the hard-liners among them are choosing an opposite route. The latter takes a seemingly acquiescent stance, opting instead to flaunt their power. With their bold gestures and unmitigated claims of dominion, they try to instill fear among the rest of the populace and at the same time appear to be utilizing the method of reverse psychology. Aside from being able to recklessly push their weight around, with this tactic they are able to circumvent the hypocrisy that the more conservative among them endure,(or maybe they really just don't know much about their comrades) while having the room to deny everything(within reason) and even shamelessly try to take the moral highground just in case a great upheaval is ignited and the powers-that-be become even a little bit more attentive than they usually are. A wise move, I must admit. After all, they have nothing or noone to fear but some of those whom they bought the power from suddenly growing a conscience. And I doubt that would happen anytime soon. The little Hitlers of the Evil Empire bitch-slaps Loki saying, "Yes, I am Evil...what are you going to do about it?" The swastika serves the Evil Empire just right. Hitler must be beaming with pride down in hell right now. The realization of apparent desperation leaves one with very few choices. For some, it unleashes flashes of genius and for the unfortunate, self-destruction. One house, finding itself alienated from most of the independents due to their bold escapades, has already sold their souls to the devil and declared themselves vassals of the self-proclaimed hegemon. Maybe they're just bidding their time, taking the role of conquered while gaining enough strength to strike at the heart of the aggressor. Or maybe they have been lured by the opportunity of safer plunder under the wing of the evil empire. Whatever it may be, it's worth remembering that they must be prepared for when the devil decides to collect its dues. The struggle continues.. The Evil Empire's absolute dominion over the world of Midgard looms ever closer as every siegeday passes. Only two fronts were left largely unconquered after the previous siegeday. Al de Baran, the powerbase of the empire, was virtually unassailable. A small pocket of resistance remained in Prontera, to be easily stamped-out as Onslaught consolidates its forces and reinforcements flow from the Capital. Payon city, on the other hand, seemed to be unconquerable seeing as the house of Unholy, the third superpower, refused to be intimidated this time, instead opting to spit at the face of its vassals, driving them off and continually strengthening their hold on the city. The Empire, still trying to keep its pride intact, did not reinforce their "brothers-in-arms" and curiously backed down from Unholy's insolence. Probably because it will take too much of their energy to beat Unholy, losing much of their empire in the process(especially if Unholy decides to cooperate with the independents instead). Thus, the Empire gets its ass handed to it and for the time being, the citizens of Payon are forced to watch an anxious stand-off. Only the citadels of Geffen were left for refuge and here the independents were regrouping after losing ground to the Imperials. The Loki Alliance was in the forefront, claiming 3 forts to house their weary but ever vigilant soldiers. Epitome took one as their own, content in watching events unfold and keeping out of the way of the Imperials. However, the Empire still gained a foothold on this city too as EBAK conquered the remaining fort. The situation seemed hopeless for the independents then. Quite frankly, I wondered how long they would be able to fight on, seeing as some of them continue to fight amongst themselves even as the wicked war-machine rolls over them. However, this week brings surprising developments(for me, at least). The independents dare to strike at the heart of Imperial territory and LoD, with 6 guilds armed to the teeth but probably atrophied from lack of use in the past sieges, loses a castle. AnL, one of the Empire's nemeses, resurfaces and takes the fight to them along with a coalition of guilds who got tired of being pushed around. With the heartland under siege, the Empire is unable to crush the resistance in Prontera. It seems that Onslaught alone cannot do it. Etivac and Rage soldiers on to the very end and denies the lower left corner of Prontera from the Empire. In Geffen, the Loki Alliance continues to drive away the invader in their newfound homeland but Ebak, living up to its name, stubbornly refuses to be scraped off the heels of their boots. Epitome remains noncommittal but defiantly protects their territory as the Empire incessantly shits on their yard. Payon is a different story. Unholy hands one of its castles to an independent as their forces contract to prepare for the inevitable showdown with LoD but it never comes. Death takes advantage of this and Unholy now finds itself squeezed between two forts, their existence threatened. Tomorrow, the fighting will renew. I wonder if Loki will be able to sustain its newfound balls and soldier on as the might of the Empire is brought down upon them. Will the coalitions crumble as the Empire strikes back or will the evil war-machine be stopped dead on its tracks? What steps would Unholy take as the Empire threatens to mobilize its reserves against them? Saturday seems centuries away. |

hahaha i liked it!! i really did although if i may comment on things.... i think in the first few paragraphs you used the thesaurus (shift f7) bit way too much to alter your words... its sort of a sign of trying too much to sound smart. thats what i thought while reading it at first anyway. then eventually those thesaurus words toned down and i realized that there was really content there...nicely done.in my opinion just coz they or rather we play the role of the villain doesnt mean thats how we will be judged upon in real life (you saying hitler must be happy way down there)...i mean have you ever played GTA games? you steal, abuse and kill people but nobody's judging right? like prince arthas kept saying...this is a role playing game..we play roles... then since LOD is apparently the source of all evil in midgard for the eyes of the people, arthas embraced that role and since LOD is a part of this supposedly named deadly alliance, people changed the name to evil alliance...then again he took that role too and started saying nazi and all. then eventually others followed and thus the evil alliance that Loki created not to mention wanted finally and officially appeared. well then are you happy? midgard finally has an official villain.. isnt that what midgard wanted? anyways just sharing my POV on things. even the superheroes we know and love (be it from marvel or DC) created some of their villains intentionally or unintentionally you know. this is just a role playing game. nicely done on the E B A K description
nicely described hehehe scraped. you could have added bout the bug in geffen thing ![]() anyway thats it for me...it was really a nice read. thanks. |

Nice commentary/ This makes seiges all the more interesting. Now, it's no longer just a seige...but our actions are now part of a story in the making. This is what makes history, the written word. The story we tell now will be remebered unlike the former wars between superpowers of loki. Good job!

nicely written.... ... unfortunately highly biased. summary: Loki Alliance gets an Agit: "heroic triumph of the good" Imperials gets an Agit: "treacherous advance of the evil" |

OK lang yan. We were called evil because of our reputation and not because of our deeds. That nazi emblem is just a flag..it does not make the person.

It's a nice read, albeit a little biased, nice nonetheless. ![]() I got raised eyebrows the minute i saw the word Devil. Mas ok sana kung walang name-calling and just stick to the alliance names. But i guess that's too much to ask.

Wow! I like it! And I thought such commentaries can only be found in Iris, now Loki has a commentator who can outmatch their commentaries! Biased, but I don't care. It's beautiful and nicely done! Two thumbs up! Funny, I seem to belong to the Tyrants here. While in Iris, Onslaught is part of The Resistance.
