A Druid's Journey

Final Chapter

New Horizons

After the last fight things only got worse.
And Ive been kept busy again. My graveyard is filling up.


I wanted to do something else, to wander the land and marvel at it. But I can't.
No time to follow the whispers to long unheard trees and boulders that need someone to talk to or food.
It's hard to hear them anyway. With these horns sounding every now and again.

The scouts found the enemy encampment. They intend to siege us.
From outside we can hear insults, warcries and slurs.

Days pass by and the city couldn't stop them.

Weeks pass by and the sounds of hammer and nail echoes from their machines of war.

Half the people are gone, fleeing the conflict, or dead.
Our leaders are...vacant to say the least, with only a few oficials still working inside city.
And my faith wanes.

My friends, disheartened, also flee and I'm left alone inside this place.
Empty houses, empty streets and the constant buzz of the city life faded away.
The air is stiff with the impending attack.

My desire is to climb the walls and shoot at them, throw insults back at them or erect more walls from behind the ones they intend to attack.
But I know it will amount to nothing. One glance in their eyes tells you everything.
Crazed eyes, hellbent on bloodlust and murder. The stench of death is in their very breath.

I'm old, not crazy, I can't stay. The last fight proved to me that I have no chance whatsoever.

And so I leave the city.
Our place had a mine entrace that lead to the cave systems underneath.
I flee from under their literal noses. Since the exit of those caves is behind their encampment.



After spending some time alone in the forest...I've decided. I won't lend my spirit back into this world again.
Ever again. It changed much since I was a young soul. Or perhaps I was too young to see it all.

So, this is goodbye.
To the trees and stones, the fields and homes.
To new and old friends, this is goodbye.

I walk into a nearby cave and...leave.


End of the last chapter.

Volkhv Dante was my char name this world.
I'm leaving this game I love so much. I will say why but I won't whine:
I can't tolerate this community anymore. Cya =D

Damn sucks dude, but i completely understand.

As a druid, you should have been out with nature anyway. You've made it out, run free.

I am so sorry we lost you in Haven, but I do understand. The game itself is a real beauty, but the community not so much.

If you ever come back, send me a PM. Safe travels.

Well written. And quite sad.

It seems over the years the rpg aspects of this game are being sidelined by rampant PVP; those who wish to live in the land via their characters, to farm, fish, explore, quest, etc. peacefully are second class citizens tolerated solely as targets for those who wish to stride through the land leaving death and destruction in their wake. I had hoped the move to Steam would see a reduction in this aspect of the game to encourage more new players; but those new players are just more targets. Six weeks into this world, I have ten people on my kin list, only one is still active (two that left are experienced players I knew from previous worlds).

I have no solution, any attempts at discussing the situation are met with howls of "go play Farmville!" (not a valid comparison, there are many ways to get killed in H&H without worrying that any other player you encounter will kill you simply because you are there), and I admit there is a need for a PVP ability in the game. But unless the game stops catering to the serial killers it will kill itself.

As I said before, attacking someone should be punished way more that is now. (Like fep/exp/lp reduction for long duration of time). Until that mechanic won’t change, our community stil will be toxic and cool people will leave.
