Acouchi - MA game for new players (full)

[Heinrich]

Alchemy is the daughter of Science.

The only ambition of Alchemy is to help humanity, to switch an imperfect, diseased, corruptible and ephemeral state towards a perfect, healthy, incorruptible and everlasting state.

The only ambition of Science is to bring knowlegde to mankind, to fight obscurantism and superstitions.

The essential element in the black art of obscurantism is not that it wants to darken individual understanding but that it wants to blacken our picture of the world, and darken our idea of existence.

Do not listen to those false prophets!

Those who pretend to godhood while they are only usurpers.
Those who pretend to defend nature while they only seek to break the natural cycle of life and death.
Those who seek to disturb the fallen men, to enslave their souls, to control their corrupted bodies and rotting flesh in order to satisfy their secret desire to rule the world.

Those ones are truly evil, we cannot let those false gods plunge mankind into obscurantism and darkness as that's the complete opposite of Science.

[Ylvali]

Hear the dryness of dust-covered scientists! How little do they understand of divine essense! The key to godhood is not ambition, but faith! The key to faith is not facts, but vision!

Knoweth thee not this?:

The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. stone crumbles. wood rots. people, well, they die. but things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on.

I am Nero! Vision, legend. Naught but superstition in the eyes of science. Will you defeat me alchemist, by proving I do not exist when lying under my divine heel?

[Omnirizon]

It is the eternal and divine fire within that is the true driver of this world.

Within you all, the divine fire of passion, conflict, and contradiction burns; pushing you ever forward, always inspiring you to action. Scientist and god alike, both moved and driven by their internal fire. Fire is the most divine and basic essence. Fire will rule all.

[Borum]

Guys, I have to back out from my nation Caelum. Just got the call to go on a business roadshow in Africa, so would not be able to log on for 2 weeks. Best I go into admin, rather than slow the game down. Good luck to everyone else!

[Hoplosternum]

Curse this wretched scale bug / feature And ludicriously powerful independents And other players starting within two of my capital and venturing forth from their watery lairs far too early

My last place position is just to lull you all in to a false sense of security

Long live my elephant I mean elephants, lots and lots of them. Of course. Oh yes

[Ylvali]

Oh, dear Heinrich! I am so sorry for such lies to reach your ears!

Germanicus, the former head of senate is jealous of my righteous claims and shamelessly spreads his awful rumors.

Does he not see how he hurts me? How sensitive I am?

I do trust your enlightened self to see through the smoke, to se that I wish nothing but the best for my people.

Supposed to be dead? Ah, but yes of course I am. Dead as a rock, dead as a clock. But i could not stay dead when my people suffers the corruption of unjust rulership in Pythium and unholy decay in Ermor. Could not rest when my poetry might be forgotten.

And on the subject of fire and passion: Might I be so bold as to say "Been there, done that"

[Ylvali]

Regarding Borum, Can´t we find a sub for him?

[Aapeli]

No I dont mind dont worry. Its actually quite interesting to play in such a small area (I have now three neighbours ).

[Heinrich]

Nero, it seems you have lost reason.

Recently, a messenger of mine told me about the atrocities commited, in your name, in Pythium. What's happening?

Where is the enlighted ruler the books deal with?

By the way, aren't you supposed to be dead?
