(This is not to be seen as a literal sequence of events, this is the world of rangora seen through my own ignorance and with some creative license) ... however, it is based on a true story
So over the last half year its being amazing to watch the politics and dynamics change.
We went from the west being the strongest, lead by an organized Core. We saw big guilds in the East crumble under the pressure. Because core were dominating the west, many players switched sides and Rangora became very stacked.
But times change, people change, the politics change.
Core got so powerful, they became their own faction. No longer did the western continent have undisputed control over Rangora, from Auroria, Core teamed up with other large groups and threatened pirates, the western continent and the eastern continent alike.
At first the big pirate guilds went into uneasy no aggression agreement with Core, but as their best players were gutted to fill the borg like Core, the powerful pirate factions fell as well.
Core were so powerful, they bought out Haranya heroes, and for a short while Haranya, the great Eastern Continent, was under Core domination and control. Our lands were open, our fields were ♥♥♥♥♥.
Sure it was great to finally be able to get close to the Core mana towers at first, but siding with such as Core was too much for some people in Haranya to stomach. Too long Core had done what they want when they want. Too long Haranya had bowed to their will.... and from the ashes that Core left behind, rose a small but plucky guild. Totally out geared and out numbered by Core, they started a resistance.
The resistance was started when Aeon Members intentionally broke the peace accord that kept Harnya bound and subjected to Core. The traitor hero Che was challenged and defeated. Aeon decided to that they would never bow to Core. That no matter how out financed they were by Core, no matter how out numbered, no matter how out geared, they would not bow their knees to that guild.
They would fight, to death (against Core, its actually many many many many many deaths), because no matter how many thousands of gear score that Core may be ahead of everyone, no matter how many times Core hit down Aeon, they kept standing back up. They never gave up and they never took the easy path like Che did.
Today, Aeon is one of the larger guilds in the East on Rangora. They are a lot like the Top Gear crew. A group of really different people thrown together, ambitious but rubbish, but with a spirit no one can keep down.
Aeon is one of the few guilds in the East that can interfere (a little) with Core in Abyssal and stop them free farming it.
Core are such a menace to both nuian and haranya that "non-aggression" pacts often form between large western guilds and Aeon. This is not formal, and its something more along the lines of, "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
In the past, proud guilds like Zephyr and Brotherhood, beat down on Aeon, but slowly over time, some respect has being earned between these former previous rivals and they often find themselves fighting together in grim determination against a much more powerful, common enemy.
Do you have the grim determination and gusto to stand up to a guild that out numbers and out gears (and pretty much almost out everythings) you? Do you refuse to bow your knee to Core? Are you ready to stand with the resistance and fight for freedom?
We are close to a tipping point. Core is more fractured and diluted than any before. Many of their mighty warriors have disappeared from the battlefield, and while they still have incredibly powerful players there is a weakness in their army that a small group of determined fighters can push a wedge into.
Aeon is growing in numbers. Once again Harnya are able to conquer mana towers. Those that come to the Aeon banner increase in number daily. Every day we have more ships, more Ironclads, more spirit.
Stand with Harnya, stand with Aeon. Let us defeat Core together and bring balance to the server again.
PS: Since the sides are so stacked, we have tons of farmland to place your buildings in and the finest potatoes in all the land.
PPS: All cowards and traitors *kof*Che*kof* are asked to please go directly to Core.
PPPS: Kami, I nearly had you tonight, another 500 hits in and I would have killed you with old age. You were just lucky you got that one shot in..... #justsaying #thestruggleisreal
PPPPS: I heard a rumor that Core thinks its better than KGB and they think KGB are too cowardly to challenge them. I cant guarantee that this rumor is true or that I didnt just make it up, but pretend it is, and take it from there![]()
