Lord British Visits PaxLair!
Honors the Town with Proclamation of Distinction
|
During the PaxLair Founders and Builders Festival
Wednesday (November 11, 1998) night, Lord British arrived to speak to the
people being honored with building such a fine town. He came up the Mage
Tower steps to the roof, accompanied by Lord Vargon and Seer Daemeon. Twas a
wonderful gathering of people and we were awestruck by Lord British's
presence.
He asked if he may join the festivities and we certainly said he was very
welcome. We stood around Lord British with many people stretching to see
over the heads of people in front of them. Lord British then asked if he
could be introduced to a few of the principle people of PaxLair being
honored this day, and I, Mayor Winfield, said "my pleasure." I spoke out
their names and their achievements while Lord British looked for them in the
massive crowd. All but a few of the honored individuals were present and to
each he gave a cheerful "Well Met!" The people honored were:
|
- Atlan - Quest Coordinator of PaxLair, who brings detailed
player-quests for all to enjoy.
- Goatboy - The god who helped build PaxLair's fine furnishings through
countless hours of intricate work.
- Gorbag the Orc - The pioneer of a race of beings who brings much
enrichment to PaxLair and Britannia.
- Green Dragon - The Ambassador of PaxLair who works with many people in
and out of town to make PaxLair known.
- Katelynn - The Defense Minister of PaxLair who takes on the most
difficult problems of defending the town for peace.
- Luigi Aeillo - The proprietor of the first Pizzeria in all of
Britannia.
- Mystarr - The Mayor's Chancellor, who deals in all things about
PaxLair.
- Soulweaver (Red) - Who placed the Mage Tower and other fine buildings
in PaxLair to establish our foundation.
- Thelorn - The Leader of The Band and founder of Second Chance
Provisioners, the first real shop in Britannia.
- WildMike - Who placed the first stone in PaxLair at his shop, the
Southern Comfort Salery, and works commerce issues with the Mayor.
- Winfield - The Mayor of PaxLair, a servant to all.
- Winmere - The Lady of the Spring of Knowledge in PaxLair, who is
involved in many things that keeps PaxLair moving forward.

Lord British made special notice when I mentioned the founders of of
PaxLair, "The Band." He said, "I have heard tales of the "band"!" I wish I
could have introduced everyone in PaxLair who have contributed immensely to
the town. The list would go on for days. With the added commotion caused by
his visit, I was unable to mention the fine groups of elves, vampires, orcs,
dwarves, necromancers, shopkeepers from the Survival Shop, alchemist shop,
tavern, instructors from academy, Father Time's and Sinbad's UO Chesapeake,
and the player-seers of Britannia. All these groups, citizens, and visitors
in PaxLair are what has made PaxLair a grand place today. I sincerely thank
all of you.
Lord British then gave PaxLair a precious gift. A plaque that reads
"Proclamation Of Distinction By His Royal Majesty Lord British." With a
blink of his eye, he took me to the front of the tower doors. With his own
two hands, he mounted the plaque directly over the Mage Tower doors. It
shines there today as an example of what people can really succeed in by
working together in Britannia.
This is a night I and many will not forget. Lord British does care about
the hard working people in Britannia and he watches over us. Thank you Lord
British for honoring PaxLair and thank you everyone for making PaxLair what
it is today.
Respectfully to all,
Winfield, Mayor of PaxLair
