For the backstory, it will be short but sweet. I ok'ed two of my fighters to join the raid on Taar. The west had become a wasteland of corpses due to their raiding. Every day we would find new towns destroyed, each spawn set of nabs we'd find dead within a day or two.
The raid was successful as we all know, but it was not without costs. Why my town was chosen to be hit is a mystery to me, but still. A 10 man raiding party swarmed in using the chair bug. Bask died by summons and ohai was overwhelmed before he even saw them coming. They proceeded wreck everything within sight.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd server reboots to fix the bug.
It probably saved lives, and it certainly saved our town from even further damage. Nothing we would have lost would have been worth the lives of my comrades however. Today we erected a memorial in their honour. Apologies about ohai's descendant, he's a bit touchy about the event.
