PaxLair's Perpetual Renewal

 

Though I myself, Connor Macleod, currently hail from Silvervale, Paxlair has always been my home. Because of this, I share with you the events through my eyes:

It was well known throughout all of Britannia that this eve marked the sixth anniversary of Paxlair; our first town run outside of British's established states. It has held the blessing of the 'Gods' and been the centerpoint of practically every community throughout the world. People from all walks of life and from every town showed to give their respect to the venerable halls and marvel at what stands. Though many spent time remembering events long past, many were new to the experience as well.

Former Mayor Winfield's Speech to PaxLair

The events started with a meeting held by both current Mayor Lady Minsk and former Mayor Winfield. Regardless of minor bothers, the events continued with a large crowd. The meeting ended, and was followed up by a tour of interesting places throughout Britannia. If anyone ever wishes to visit such marvels as Wintersoul, Castle Stormbringer and the like, Paxlair is always open to help. Soon after some relaxing time, a quest was performed with the utmost enjoyability of its participants. Everyone enjoyed themselves, and no one wanted the night to end.

Though you will hear of stories of battles and the like that spawn from this eve, there is only one story that holds importance. Much like it always has, Paxlair outlived the hardships that came against it. I leave you now with the immortal words shared by Winfield and Minsk. It is a mantra for all to live by: "They can kill our bodies, but they can't kill our spirits! They can take our gold but they can't take our souls. They can burn our buildings, but they can never have our town. For Life, For Love, Forever Paxlair."

Happy Sixth Paxlair, here's to many more!
