blocked, blocked, blocked.... Finally a mage managed to open a gate. 5 of us went through then
the gate was gone. So the mage opened another gate and we all arrived there...in Trinsic! Well no threat no fear
nothing at all I had to face as I arrived there. Absolutly nothing
except for my fellow adventures who all run off in different directions for the seek of evil. Well
I decided to have a look around myself, even a little bit frustraded to have missed everything, as I
arrived at a crossing where two mages where healing two fighters without a break to give them support in their fight
                  against tow bone knights and a lich. I put out all my macigal abilities and cast two healings
as well and move on seeing they will stand that fight. Just a few corners after there is a big fight. Fire fields and
                  poison fields I see as well as 3-4 mages and 6-7 fighter with two summoned deamons against
a large amount of bone knights, lichs and liches lords...There I start to get in the battle as well. Cries of pain,
                   blood and the cruch of splitting bones... But we managed it! All happy of the victory we heal
each other and laugh about that fight happy about the good team work we did even without knowing each other.
                   But unluckily one of the fighters got into a boodlust (or shall I say bonelust) and run off for
more. As he came back, hords of undead were following him. Still exhusted from the fight before we couldn't
                  stand these creatures anymore and were splitted. I found a place to hide and waited there
for more brave heroes to come and fight ( coward you say??? Well I try to be brave but I am also not a dumphead!!!).
                  Finally another brave group arrived and we headed to face th e horrors once more. And we
won again, with a few loss. But the mages and healer did their work here. But soon the next attack started again,
                   but I knew I could count on the others to get healed and healed the others instead. This time
we didn't have such a glorious victory, a knight died in an attack of 4 liches and the other turned to the mages.
                  who ran then (what I can understand, being low on Mana and not with the best armor I guess)
 I, myself, had to struggle with another lich. And somehow I survived. Being all alone again I set out for another
                   groupe I can join in and finally found one fighting these lich lords. I joined in. And we did it
again. After all the healing each other we noticed that oneof us had attacked another brave fighter and so we
                   nearly all were flagged as criminals. Well we thought - no matter! We fought together and knew
that none of us would kill the other. Then again liches turned up. We wanted to face them, but just at that
                     moment another gate opened and these notos came out of it. Killing three of us quickly (as
we were already attacked by the liches as well). But a mage opened a gate quickly to save us. Not all of us
                  managed to escape. The rest died there I guess. Well I want to salute to all these in Britannia
who want to do justice, and get fame and famouse in battles fighting with others! I didn't dare to go back again.
                  Not because of the monsters, no because of these notos who always want to destroy the fun
you have playing UO. I wonder why they never cast their annoying corp pors in the other direction and once fight
     with the others against the threats that are befalling Britannia lately....

The lich continued with clawing me everywhere, and only after a few more good hits from me,
did it try to escape.  Of course I did not let him, but made sure he finally would get his eternal rest.
After some time, working with my bandages and calming my mount, I ventured forth
                                 into the besieged city. Luck was with me since the undeads clearly did notexpect an attack from behind the lines
at this point. I rode a good way around the city, trying to stay hidden amongst the shadows of the buildings. I found
a good place to tie my horse, and continued onwards on my own feet. As I looked around a corner,
                               I saw several liches and other undeads standing near the Royal Bank of Trinsic. I
decided to try to get to a higher location, and climbed up the town center. Lying on
                                the roof of the building, I was able to get a good view of the town. I saw many
undeads everywhere, and even saw a few bands of brave warriors and mages doing their
                                utmost to try liberate the town. They did however not succeed in getting through the
ranks of undead, and was blocked near the town´ s main entrance. After seeing
                               this horror myself, I choose to attempt a quiet retreat the same path as I had come. I knew in my
heart, that I myself alone would be of little help in the liberation, and
                                 would need a full army to help. It was with a heavy heart I finally reached the waiting boat back at the shore.
I had gotten what I came for, intelligence about the occupied city, but the vast number of the enemy left me deeply worried if we would ever
be able to free and restore liberty to the once proud city of Trinsic.
