The Fire Mage and the Healer

Once upon a time there was a fire mage. When she first arrived on the shores of Albion she didn’t know much about all the mysteries that were hidden in this strange world. It took her 3 days of hard-core grinding to move away from the beginner area to the desert of Bridgewatch, but didn’t stay there too long and decided that the highlands of Martlock were friendlier.



She started a guild and grinded in the safety of the Undead Dungeon of Curlew Fen for some time. There she met a lot of the future to be guild members including a healer that was from a mighty endgame guild, Blue Army. This healer was a nice company and, even though the fame sessions were pretty often interrupted abruptly by him telling that his guild master was calling for him, they continued to play together for months and months. They moved from Curlew Fen to the yellow Lewsdon Hill and, some time after, they started going to the even more dangerous places, in the Blackzone. The healer was older and wiser and knew what threat his own guild would pose to such a young group as ours so he often came with us on his alt character. He would always tell us that if we see Blue Army we should run as we didn’t have any chance to fight them.





The healer got instantly kicked from Blue Army and the fire mage felt insanely guilty for basically getting him kicked, but there was no turning back and the positive feelings of killing what they were previously running from were also overwhelming. The healer soon decided to join the fire mage’s guild and they continued to play together and got other good stories, but this was by far so intensely felt that it became the most memorable one.



It’s almost been one year since it happened, but writing about it puts a smile on my face. The veteran player in me knows that it wasn’t such a big deal, but it felt like the most glorious moment of my young fire mage self. It was also a catalyst to forming a good friendship, and even though me and the healer no longer play together we still share our funny moments from time to time on discord or game chat.
