The UA/GF extends its heartfelt sympathy to those who so senselessly lost their lives to such cowardly actions:
May their passage be enlightened, may their lives have not been in vain.

Click. Interesting. (Beautiful poem by the way M'Lady!)

All things being open to interpretation and knowing myself something of where the Lass is coming from this may be seen as a 'click' of a clock, a wheel of fate and...should I say it? On a website!

Lady Tatanka is joining us in the 'click for cash' game, starting her own costume business! Her creations may be seen at her new website One Copper City as well as throughout the many of the realm's groups and clubs!

The Lady may well surpass all of Union in her endeavors...as such so often stops the wheels of fate...but that's largely what we're here for! We want to see our members succeed, be it in having a grand time in a game or starting their own empires, IC or IRL!

Union has had a hard time of things since the terrorist attacks as have many businesses. Still, we remain undaunted and shall continue to do what we do to make our Union the best we are able. I covered this matter in my Tavern posts of the 11th, numbers 124 and 125. In brief we may be pushing back some dates but plans are subject to change. Well, postponment.

Read there, and here, for further ways you can help and make Union all ye'd have her be for you!

Also in realm developments are the great transitions Lady Lance is effecting in the Realms of Rokvor. She also wrote an article about it...read below for all the details!

"So what have you done this week, Monty?" some may ask. I've tried to vacate a bit. Relax. Take in some sights. But mostly, I clicked.

But for the Three

A day without light?
A day with no night?
You see without sight
Where we might be
But for the works of the three

Changes are made,
and changes forbade,
Gods decide destiny
For us all and the three.

A passage forsaken,
The road left untaken,
At last you awaken
What you would see
But for the deeds of the three?

A war without end,
A land to defend,
A tear you must mend,
Why pretend any certainty
But not for the three?

As battles will rage,
between warrior and mage,
We still turn a page...to see
Where we might be
But for the works of the three

Where we might be
But for the deeds of the free...

News from the Order of Rokvor
By Lady Lance

The land of Rokvor is looking for Union Members to support it's already active storyline! It is a RPG for those who enjoy all sorts of plot twists and a large variety of characters! At the moment, there is a large problem for all the forces of good... A demon queen has risen with the help of her enchanted sword Dragonsbane, and is determined to take over the entire land. Rokvor is divided up into four gates - Steel, Wood, Stone, and Bone. The demoness, with the help of her two generals and the dragons she controls, has already taken over the gates of Steel and Bone. It seems it won't be long until the gate of Wood falls as well. The forces of good are few against the hordes of demons, ogres, orcs, dragons, and even some minotaurs. Unless they get help soon, it is likely that evil will triumph.

Yet all is not hopeless. A small band of a varaity of races - elven, vampire, centaur, human, minotaur, demon, and guardian - have joined together and seek to storm the fortress of the demon queen and steal the sword that gives her the power to control the minds of the dragons. Do you have to courage to help them? Or perhaps to oppose them and join the blanket of darkness that threatens to overcome the land at long last.
