Although it only lasted 4.5 hours according to SOE i'm sure it felt like many more to some.... luckily i'm not one of them
Imagine if you will 2 brave adventurers who've never seen a war before and were naturally curious about what was going to go on. Being brave but not foolhardy they got out their little level 4 toons (unguilded cause they're only gofers) to go see what all the fuss was about, thereby saving the lives of the one's they are working so hard on.
Our hero's of this story are Deathis the handsome male DE cleric played by your very own Flaumi :hat, and Evilenya the beautiful half dressed female SK played by none other then our own Hayloch :D (ok we'll get her some more clothes when we can it's not like she's played very much)
Heedless to all the warnings shouted and /ooc around PoK of certain death to anyone entering FV, (SOE better give them all 100% rez for not warning them about this crap,there shoud have been more infomation in the serverwide messages that went out,:rolleyes and they should have said they need a full damn raid force to get past the book instead of getting them deleveled ,murderized and molested like that >: ) our two hero's bravely wove their way through the naked crowd in front of the stone and entered the zone.
They stepped into a field of carnage,:eek boddies strewn in un-natural positions littered the ground. No less then 3 epic'd clerics were clickying away as fast as they could, a Iksar on horseback was offering his services to summon corpses, chanters offering their c3 while waiting for their own turn to be rezzed, bards, rogues and scout offering their services to drag corpses only to themselves have to be dragged to await the services of the clerics.
They stepped, as is natural, to one side of the zone in spot turned in their chairs to look at each other and said "coooool lets go see what killed them and if there's any loot rotting like on the skellies at the anniversary". Eagerly they turned knowing that if they met the same fate as the others there nothing bad would happen cause they're too little :D They rushed down the tunnel to the crossroads and turned left towards Dreadlands only to be met by this sight....

Sure of their impending doom they bravely stood their ground while the enemy advanced, some at a walk and some at a run, their numbers seeming endless. (actually they thought oh shit we've had it no time to run get the camera before we die :\)
Imagine the suprise when they weren't killed, the mobs just walked over them, they couldn't believe it and before they had chance to go anywhere here came the next wave

Now it was fun, here they were our little hero's able to skip and play where seasoned hardened veterans were getting their proverbial asses handed to them on platters. Not only could they run around unmolested by the Army of Darkness they could even dance and make rude gestures at them (sorry no screen shots of that fun) So for the next hour or so they dragged numerous corpses back to the book to be rezzed by the now clicky finger tired clerics, (earning a "thanks man" and 8 gold and 2 spider silks looted from a spider who ran in the tunnels after someone only to be met by a wizzy's 7k nuke)
Their adventures to this point marred by only 1 death, poor Evilenya cut down before her prime by that goody two shoes Captain Green something who was promptly torn to pieces by the victorious Army of darkness /cheer. She retired for the night for some well earned sleep while Deathis ventured forth into Dreadlands to be met with his own death at the hands of a Tunare Defender who was torn limb from limb by the dark forces, while continuing to drag the corpses of those unfortunate enough to get themselves and thier 2box account killed in the same place earning a "thanks man good thing you don't loose exp just drag the corpse to the line i've got a cleric there to rez us"

Venturing back to recover his own corpse he agian pulled corpses back to the zone line including the aforementioned cleric who wasn't waiting safely at the zone line but had bought the cheap horse and lived to regret it.
Will the stories of our intrepid adventurers continue.... well as rumour has it Feronia and her goody two shoes army of elves are going to try to regain control of the city of FV from Lanys T`Vyl we can only speculate that the hero's may change to someone good as they venture forth to get screen shots to share with you... our friends
