These screenshots were of the days of old Rallos Zek, an EverQuest server dedicated to
Player Versus Player combat. I saw both sides of the server, PvP & PvE, and though it wasn't in my intention to go outright PK (
Player Killer), I was forced into it on my
Monk, due to humiliating a player, standing by while watching them get taken down by a member of
Lucid Vision. From that
point on, I was forsaken by my old guild even though they geared me and I attained epic while amongst them. It was me versus the rest of the server, besides an old Monk friend who took me in, and I continued to fight, eventually exacting revenge against those who dared to destroy my old guild. I fought on in their steed, taking down as many Ascending
Dawn in the end as I could, besides the rest of the server who got in my way. It was a great time for me in life, and though I roamed like a
Ronin seeking those that broke apart my old guild through war, I managed to even the score, and then some. Though the
Dynasty of
Shadows were ruined in the end by all the strife like a sand castle on the beach eroded by the relentless waves at night, a part of them all went with me in spirit to bring the grand fight to our enemies, and I broke through the myriad armies elsewhere on Zek. With the help of the brave Monk guildmaster of
The Curse, Grickus, and his whole crew, we were victorious; even if merely just in spirit, we did it.
Days of endearing glory to be sure
...

Cheers to all who participated on the EverQuest Rallos Zek Server, about a decade ago. It was a soul searching time of growth and beauty. Through all the war, those who held on became stronger within, and made this server what it was - the best of EQ.
Monuments could be built of the old players, through their dedication and spirit. A very noble and heartfelt /salute to all of you.
Thanks for the memories. /bow
And so it goes on and on...
