Ahh yes, the time has come to tell you a tale of the "Great" DragonsHaven. Pull up a chair, throw another log on the fire, pull your blankets up tight and send the children to bed.
Once upon a time, there was a newly formed game, nigh a year released, couldn't have been much longer. After a few test rounds, it was released to the public, and a few rounds had gone by. This tale begins in the quaint little era of Starkingdoms Version 1, The Original S1. I was a mere n00b, stumbling upon SK while searching for soemthing to do with my wasted time. It looked easy enough, sign up, use my email, get creative with my names, read up on this strange new game, the works. Thus, KissMyArse was born unto the world of SK. I entered into 6:25, nice little sector, seemed to have a good group of people. Amazingly, this is where I would meet the person who would shape my SK career. Not 1 hour into my newbie mode, and some random guy messaged ME, some lowly noob who hasn't got a clue. Though I didn't know at the time, he was the SL of my sector, Magnificent Ten. He helped me along, showed me the ropes, taught me how to play SK. He seemed to take a liking to me, always helping me out to the fullest, asking my opinion even when I didn't have much of clue. Nonetheless, he got me involved. I took a knack to the game, getting good within a week. Mag Ten Had recently started BIGFIRE, one of the best Alliances ever. Mainly, because he was the leader. Though I wasn't an officer, I was involved on the goings on of the alliance, learning to AL without having the full responsibility. About 2 weeks until the end of the game, I had to go on a summer trip. I told Mag Ten, and asked if we could get in contact next round. He agreed. I was forced to skip game 5, or most of it, due to the vacation. I came in near the end, and found Mag Ten ALing Bigfire, just playing for fun once again, yet doing great. I finished off the round playing casually, having a good time. Game 6 came, and I was psyched. I ran for SL and won, and of course joined Bigfire as an officer. Per Bigfire style, it was to play for fun, have a good time, nothing more. The game went good, until near the end. Back then, retals were common practice. Mag Ten got hit twice in a row, no reason at all. At the time, Mag hadn't been playing super serious, so I was larger than him, and naturally the two that hit him. I made a retal, partially because you retalled (or were allowed to) any kind of hit, and because they deserved it. I could only hit one of them, but the next day, nailed the other. Everything seemed fine. Day after, a freind informed me the first guy I had retalled was WAY open, naturally, I nailed him twice, easily. Not the best move I must say. He got pissed off and only later did I find out he had freinds, and a good deal of em. Never being KTed, I was killed quickly. I was enraged, and restarted as KissMyArse2. Amazingly, and by a stroke of luck, I landed in Mags Sector, he found out what happened and KTed the guys who killed me. I was satisfied.
Game 7 came around without a hitch. 2 weeks in, I looked as though I would make my top 100 appearance. not long after, I was offered the position of VAL of Hydra. I accepted and moved my sector to Hydra. Week 3, I had hit top 50. Everything seemed top notch. Little did I know, the Guy from last round had finally found me. He was mad, he played super serious, and didn't like me getting him KTed. he decided to once again kill me. I had gotten enough freinds, that I started an offense against he and his freinds. Soon after, I died, and restarted as KissMyArse2 once again. First day out of newbie mode, I was killed by 10 of that guys freinds. He had finally died. I was beyond angry, restarted as kissmyarse3, and stayed low. But, ofcourse, the guy found me once again. He was bigger than me as he started his newbie mode earlier, and once again annihilated me. I realized I could no longer play as KMA, thus, Dark Legacy was born. I heard that Mag Ten was killed, and with my new name, I had little hope of talking to my mentor again.. I was not yet using AIM, we had always just found eachother ingame. I later heard he had quit, but never stopped trying to find some contact to him.
Game 8, I made my appearance as DarkLegacy, playing as normal, though not as active. I was a TAGer, and back then was one of the best TAGs. I had a good time, but still wished to find my Mentor and freind. Through my searches, I came upon someone else, Juason1. We quickly became freinds, a freindship that still lasts today. I didn't do much the rest of game 8, just chilled, and met alot of the Now SK greats.
Right before Game 9, a freind of mine was set to AL in an Alliance trio set up by a guy named Bedrock. I was set to VAL the alliance Called DarkStar, under the ALship of my freind. I met Bedrock, and we became freinds. We both soon realized the current AL of DarkStar was an idiot, and was replaced by me. Luckily, we still had a few days before round 9 started, so the switch went smoothly. My freind got mad, and I haven't talked to him since. back then, bedrock was close to a noob. By this time, I was also playing on S2 for 2 rounds now, clearly making a name for myself.
Game 9, I went with Mag Tens old motto, in honor to him. Allegence of Death (Allegiance wouldn't fit). I had gotten a freind to play, and was having fun teaching him to play. AoD was a name I liked, I had planned on running DarkStar, bit it was cancelled. I didn't mind. I thus entered my first SL power struggle. I ended up losing, to someone Named Patriot and a freind of his. I then met Sargeant Ferret, who would be a good freind for the remainder of the game. Halfway though the game, Sarge Protested about some of Patriots actions. Patriot and his freinds swiftly KTed him. Sarge restarted and got his new sector to help me. Patriot and his freinds had been using the SL merely for the bonus, and betraying the sector to freinds (getting our SoMs, SoKs, ect) Sarge showed me the proof and I rallied the non loyal Patriots to help me KT him and his freind. Civil war was brutal. I was a main target, but had been KTed once or twice and was doing ok. Patriot and I talked along while on AIM. By this time, he was dead, but we came to terms. I gained SL, and everything went ok. The only think I liked about their *regime* was their chosen Alliance. The AL was a guy named Shamrock, a good guy, and we bonded. He promised me VAL next round. I liked it.
