Port Ol'val Dajorra system

Khaer stood there, inwardly deciding how best to answer in order to avoid punishment.

"WELL?!" A furious voice echoed through the darkened room. "I know your loyalties are divided, your Master has the strongest hold on you."

The Protector stared at his interrogator, studying every aspect of the man. Knowing what he did about his questioner, the Gatekeeper replied candidly, "Loyalty to my Master is a given."

A curled sneer was the reply to the Journeyman's retort. "Understanding, loyalty to your Master and devotion to increasing your knowledge," a dry chuckle filled the room, "Good, I'm proud of you."

The overhead lights clicked on and bathed the room in colour. Standing before Khaer stood his new Sergeant; Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, a past Aedile of Qel Droma and now returned to his first home within Arcona. The Templar turned his back, turning to stare out of the one way glass window that looked upon Port Ol'val. A smile punctuated the Professor's features.

"Home....."

Battleteam news

So hello and welcome to my first BTL report since well, I was a Journeyman almost 2 years ago. It's been a long and hard journey in those 2 years, but I'm back and ready to roll.

First off I want to say, disappointing results in Operation Ad Infinitum, but that will all change as we come up to the GJW.

As you all know, I sent out emails asking you questions about how we can make things better for you all. I want to thank you for all of your speedy responses. Some of the issues you brought up were dealt with straight away by the summit and others will be dealt with over the next few weeks as we lead up to the GJW.

We recently had an AWOL check and lost one member of the team; Amber Amnell. We're sad to see her go and I sincerely hope she comes back to Arcona soon.

We also somehow no longer have WalkerBoh in Shadow Gate. He's still around in Qel Droma. Might've been a mix up in the rosters somewhere.

Right, I want to say well done to Khaer for all the work he's putting in at the moment. He's been promoted recently and been doing fantastically in the Shadow Academy. I'm waiting for you to do more of my exams Khaer. :P

I also want to say thank you to Legz for holding Shadow Gate together before I came along. Thank you mate, I love you long time. <3

And also, I think we should spend some time on saying our thank you's to Ronovi. Ronovi is a major part of what makes the Shadow Academy tick. Not only does she spend time on bettering the SA, she spends time bettering Arcona and fleshing out Port Ol'val, our new home. So thank you Ronovi, keep up the good work!

I've got some more stuff for you, I know, I can't believe it myself!!!! I'm too nice to you lot. Got two competitions for Shadow Gate, especially for you Journeymen. But if the veterans want to join in, it would be nice.

Both of these competitions start tomorrow and run until the 26th August. Send your entries to me at [Log in to view e-mail addresses] and remember to cc Invictus and Wally.

House News

Invictus is the new Aedile and he's wonderful, even if he does have a predilection for my mother. Catch him on IRC and have a chat, you won't regret it.

Wally is as awesome as ever, and still kicking arse as Quaestor.

There's been a QUA report out recently, catch it here: http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/dbjedi/reports.php?report=14172

Wally, Invictus and I have plenty of fictional updates and competitions coming up. Here are a couple that Invictus is running at the moment.

Send your entries to Invictus and remember to cc Wally and myself so we can keep track of your activity.

Clan News

Communication Breakdown part 2 RO is LIVE!!!!! If you've signed up, go and get posting!

Shadow Warrior ACC ladder is live too, good luck to all those signed up. Especially if you've got to face Dash on your way to the finals.

Wuntila is still blue, annoying and has got pent up anger due to being in the closet.

Oh and new plot fiction update, it makes us look like pricks in it. Of course, not surprising there as it was written by a Taldryan. Just stroking their e-peens. I think all it has done is just rile up Arcona for the GJW, not a good thing for Taldryan, oh well, nevermind.

DB News

Loads of reports out at the moment, CNS need a Proconsul......good luck with that.

Shadow's a nob jockey.

Revan survived the AWOL.

We survived the AWOL and are the largest and strongest Clan around!!! HELL YEAH!

Competitions from the Herald and DGM. Go and get 'em boys....and girl?

Closing thoughts I can't help but think about my previous reports when I was in leadership. My reports were full of insults, jokes and bickering with Celahir. In short, they were fantastic. Well, if you're an Arconan and have a sense of humour they are.

Perhaps I should bring back that style of writing, if I want to get fired by the DC that is. :P

But anyways, thank you all for reading and remember, if you want something done right, don't involve Taldryan.
