Months ago when I joined the now-defunct EliteGlobal (EGL), a guild in the Asian server, I was enthralled by being with people in a virtual gaming world for the very first time. 'Also saw the FWT Animation video, and I thought of creating lyrics that conveyed the themes of the game, the scenes in the video, and the experience of being in a guild with people I have grown fond of. The first few lines of the song here were put on paper. The music never left my head playing it over and over and over again just to find the combinations of ideas flavoring the melody just right, over the course of months yet again. Stories of friendships destroyed no thanks to competitiveness brought about by the cancer-that-is-Guild-Raid circulated as I talked to the veteran members. EGL was reborn as TheAgency, a way of asserting its autonomy later on, but the tension between cooperation and competition was there, and it led to several guildies leaving yet again. How I had hoped the new guild and its members realized that competing against money-laden "whale" guilds is useless, worshiping them and rich players rids the self-discovery out of the game, and focusing on competing against oneself, helping each other out to the best of one's abilities, and understanding the real-life circumstances of fellow guildies is the golden path towards FUN. During a particularly sad night, on a bus on the way home, the missing words appeared, and now the song is complete. You might make us salty with crazy RNG, Nexon, but I still harbor a heart for you, for making a game that provides an endearing experience for an old queer like me! So here we are. On an ongoing journey. May we learn new things. May we become wiser. May we stay in salty, sugary, exciting, and boring times. May the past guide us towards being caring in the present and open about the future. May running the world mean running around it with partners. Enjoy and sing along! Oh, and I am looking for kind souls to sing this thing, my ULTIMATE LOVE LETTER TO FANTASY WAR TACTICS! Gotta hear all our hearts beating as one... Singer support, please? LYRICS (singing starts when guitar riff comes in) I will run the world Make it farm my salt and tears Gather all those who'd believe in my extreme supremacy! Run around the world Making friends who believe and care about me Look at the time! Gonna rush, and play oh so carelessly! (Serendi looks upwards) Hey is this a painful memory A loss inside my heart beating so wildly? Hey is this, oh my god, catastrophe! That is what they'll do When they rule the world... (Lee launches attack) Insanity! And there's the crash! Jumping outta the dark And into the light Toughen up, weakened down Killing all of hope's eternity. (Klein looks upward) Calamity! Fall so fast Into this hole you wouldn't call your life Pity you Oh, this is when you hurt the world... (Chris with shield and sword, more awesome guitar shredding) Mmmm, not gonna stop now Gonna stay until the end And learn from all the best Gotta hear all our hearts beating as one This is what we'll do When we run the world.

FWT Animation Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JTOI8Rw10E Dedicated to: - all Agents active and inactive; with changed names and retained; competitive and cooperative; silent and boisterous; trollish and dramatic; sane and weird; straight, queer, whale, witch, kitty, and alien; from the past to the present and the still-unrevealed future -- you know who you are! - Asian server's ch.0, most of all, and the other channel universes: Channel Trekking to empty space and back to salt-filled chatrooms is never a bore - FWT Redditors, Wikia editors, and Youtubers who share what they know about the game - my partner who endures my waking up early in the morning to farm refining materials, singing this song ad nauseam, and listening to my stories about the game and its denizens :3
