Altgard

As you may have realized by now I did in fact ascend on that evening. A couple days later I decided to go visit Altgard. So after going to Pandaemonium to visit my good old friend Balder and to ascend I went to altgard to start a new adventure, now that I have wings I can do everything!

Thank you Heimdal

As soon as I get to Altgard I start flying away. I flew around a bit to visit the place and get the thousands quests waiting for me there. Then, off I went, a new adventure was waiting for me!

Resting in high places

I flew all around Altgard to gather some Aether because I would start crafting soon and needed a lot of it. I decided to land on the back of one of those giant elephant-like things. Great view up there. I went to the Moslan forest after only to discover a Striped Gumi I was wondering if he tasted good, but the color wasn’t really appealing.

Does it taste good ?

Then I decided to go to Impetisium to see what it looked like. I was really surprise, it looks great! And the way to get there looks great too. But once I got by Black Claw Outpost I got killed pretty badly, so I decided to stop there and come back when I’ll be stronger. Now I’m level 17, almost 18 and I intend to go back and kick the Mau who killed me back then. My vengeance is going to be terrible!

Aion – Journey into Asmodae

*while waiting for my queue to finish I’m going to write my first adventure*

It all started yesterday, September 20th. Head start was upon us and everyone was excited to start. Then 3 o’clock PM showed up. All hell broke loose. Everybody was trying to login at the same time and the servers couldn’t handle the huge load of traffic at all once, so the Queue Line showed up too.

Hello Queue

After a long hours of waiting I finally got in, oh joy! My friend was already playing since he got luckier and managed to get in before me… He already had the time to get to level 4 and I was still a little level 1 human. I had to start leveling soon or else I wouldn’t be able to get to ascend before the end of the head start.

Yep, I speak french too...

As soon as I started leveling, I also started getting my gathering skill up a bit, I’m an Adventurous Crafter after all.

Gathering the hell out of that Azpha plant!

While on my journey I got a message from the NCsoft team telling me how to activate my pre-order items, which I won’t be doing for a while, so I rapidly ignore the message and got back on my quest to become a Daeva. Here’s a photo of myself while I’m still a low level priest, I’ll keep that one for future uses. (Did you see, I have line on my face… just like Ulquiorra.)

Ulquiorra Khyzar

Back to my adventure! As I was leveling my way through the first levels, I got to the Where’s Rae quest… That’s when things got bad. How the hell am I suppose to talk to Rae when there’s 12371592635 people trying to do the exact same thing as me at the exact same time ?!

Rae sure is popular!

When I finally managed to do the quest I was ready to look at what it is to be a Daeva and fly.

LORD Ulquiorra Khyzar

After that half my levels were done, I couldn’t wait to be a Daeva, level 10 seemed so far away, almost unreachable. So I decided to go take a walk by the cemetery and  pray to get level 10 by the end of the night.

Do you see something strange here ?

While praying I decided to start and finish a quest, might as well try to get as much exp as I can… Up until now everything was going fine and my levels were doing their best to come and go as fast as they could. But I got tired and decided to relax by the Odella Plantation, they have a nice view over there, too bad they don’t seem to like us, Asmodians, very much…

Relaxing with the enemy

After my little break it was time to go back to my journey and ascend to Daevahood! I got up on my feet and started walking and running again, doing quests after quests…

Did I reach my goal ? That’s for another story, because right now my queue line is done and I have to go adventure a little more into the world of Atreia.

I now present you…

Khyzar the Priest and Essia the Mage. I was a little impatient yesterday, but when I got up this morning everything was fine and I could create my 2 new Asmodian characters. Now I can’t wait to login. I gave myself a couple goals for the headstart:

1. Reach a level between 10 & 15
2. Get my 2 main crafting professions
3. Adventure throughout the world

I know there’s only 3 goal, but I can’t play much so I try to give myself something I can achieve in the little time I have to play.

Khyzar the Priest

Essia the Mage

This is the start of a great journey on which I intend to make a lot of friends, and kill a lot of Elyos! (on Triniel…)

Asmo on Triniel

Edit: Well, now it seems Triniel is full, I couldn’t create my character today, I guess I’ll have to wait until headstart. At least I know no one will steal my name since it was basically created by me hitting my keyboard I overreacted a bit there with my Elyos thing. Anyway, I can’t wait until Sunday now, I’ll have to play some NHL and watch Heroes. (btw, Hiro Nakamura > all)

Will this be the event that will turn me Elyos ?

So…

Who’s playing who on what server ?

I’m Thalired on Triniel, Asmodian Priest! don’t be shy to whisper me if I’m online. Btw, I’m willing to change server if needed.
