It seems today was a good day to die. Can death infact have rewards??

[Festus]

It seems that just as in life when you get up in the morning an things just go wrong, UO is that way too.  Or, at least for me it is.  Some days I cant seem to keep even.  My toon dies stupidly to my dumb mistakes or, I dont make mistakes but i die anyways or the server will lag at just the time im pushing luck abit and i die.  Then on the other side of the coin, some days ya just cant make a mistake.  Things just roll along quite nicely and la di da ana ho humm.  Run here and there and have a regular kinda day. 

But............there are days like today also.  No one is on much or if they are they all busy and not talking.  Im in the medow boored and wondering what kind of day it will be.  I decided to fully stock my toon and even put in some extra.  OHhhh ya, Ill take a boat also for shitz an giggles.  Who knows what may come up.  (it seems that as i do random things i often find myself not fully prepaird for ANYTHING)  Today I decided to take double food, double drink, two extra mounts (im not fortunate enough to have unbreakable mounts), a few various types of weapons and 3000 bandages.  (sounds like a lot of bandies but i use nearly 3k a day hence i paid to have a garden spot by the house but still have no idea how to grow things)
Ohhh Kaayyy. Off to the Fel side.  The spot where most people wont be caught dead. (no puns intened) Fel is tough.  Not a lot of healers, no recall, no gate (without special items that can be had with luck and found only in Fel) and evasion wont work there as well as a few other handy trammel side spells.  The first town I visited is one that I have been to many times and always come away with full packs an a bit of gold but today.  Ohhhhh My.  I got my second town sigel.  Now i have two from each of two towns.  As well as i filled my pack pretty well.  I happend to open up uo auto map and wow.  I wasnt to far from that little island out there. Hmmm I even have a boat.  Woot.  So, in my boat i go and sail into the totaly unknown.  I was carefull mind ya and afraid of dieing out there with 0 help and 0 staff on. I even dropped a bit of food, drink and bandages in the ships hold. The chances of someone comming to Fel to rescue a mate are slim to none but on an island or in the ocean?  A big Zero im sure.  Oh well .  Off the boat i jump and Booom into the middle of a spawn.  Some kind of crazy stuff an the battle is on.  Luckly I did manage to win that and was able to run the island and found .............
So, having a good and exciting experience at my first stop i decided to do some island hoping.  I had a great time and finally ended up on a rather large island that had been overrun with many terrible beasts.  Run was all I could for for a time and as I watched the small round map on my screen I saw what looked like a small stucture of sorts.  Well with my big ole 50 hiding skill I thought i could run into there and maybe hide while i catch my breath.  NOPE, NOT GONNA HAPPEN.  I ran into a spawn of Ancient Balrons amoungs other things.  Promptly I died and died again after a wandering healer was most kind and seemed to have followed me to this terrible area.  Soooo, back to the ship i go for my supplies left there.  I was lucky enough to have a healer following me very closely and as i died along the way he managed to help me along.  (an old school trick that still seems to work)  With a new pack of supplies I quickly hurried back and managed to recover my items in the nick of time.  wooo hoooo But now the beasts shall pay a price for retribution.  And they did.  They paid a price thats much more than I would have ever expected.  No day previous to this have I had such rewards nor have I had a beast(s) bow to me and drop items such as this at my feet.  As my morning went on these fowl smelling and hard fighting beasts and I seemed to come to some sort of understanding.  They and I decided to learn from one another a new art of Offense and Defense.  Soon after our pact was made however I found my packs full of booty, the likes of which I havent seen before.  I bid them fair well and with a parting shot(s) of explosion potions dropped through the roof I was on my way.  My oh my where they upset with me for my parting shot.  Yes I was followed all the way to my ship and as i jumped aboard I was lucky to escape with my life.  Will I return to this strange and far off place?  Will I again make some accord with the beasts that dwell inside?  YES I WILl!! Infact I will search out another brave soul to take along.  I will find someone that has the skills to break into chests as I  noticed during my dashing about earlier that there was infact a pile of carefully guarded treasure chests filled im sure to the top with unknown riches.  Yes, I will return!!

Ole friend.Lend me your ear!!! I Achilles will in fact follow you into the jaws of the devil himself friend. Ye have led me on a many of journey. Some of them have not been to our success, but for the most part we survive our ordeals and return to fight another day. As for the skills that you seek to plunder inside locked chests. I seem to have a knack for plundering. Sometimes the plundering will cause me to bite off more than I can chew and sometime not. But the one thing Ole Friend you can be assured of is that I will fight with you until the end and venture anywhere ye wish to take me. With that said I WILL FOLLOW YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aye Mlord Cypress.  I only intened to post that i had a good time today and that I have much left to explore.  What I didnt mention was that on the way home I stopped at a few spots and was amazed at what I found.  As for loot on the way home, alas my boat and pack were full so I had to leave what I found for another day.  Story?  Nay Mlord.  Twas an account of a day in the life of a fine Scotts lady.

Will??

Come morning m'lad.  We are off on the high seas.  Where we shall end up I dont know.  We have much to see and learn in this dangerous land I speak of.
Also Mr. Parsih, it seems we have a few treasure chests to locate and uncover as well!!!!!
