A Pull of Legend

A highly entertaining run through Kara last night, including our 2nd ever one shot of Maaairrrgghhhhden - we may finally have her measure!?

One shot! One shot! One shot!

Before Her, MC sat down to enjoy what was left of Moroes's feast after taking care of business.

Dinner with Moroes - note there's only 9 of us - we sent Rev out for more Boar so he kicked over his chair and left in a huff

Next up was Opera, and the event was Big Bad Wolf - great stuff as we'd not had the pleasure before now.

Alas before we could get cracking on it, Blackheathen...died.

This left us in a bit of a jam. Not being on stage, Blacky kept attracting the Wolf's attention and resetting the event. This did work to our advantage to an extent, as we were able to practice our Riding Hood Olympic sprint routines for a while...

But the highlight of the night, and maybe of all the Kara runs so far, was one memorable attempt where Irational managed to do what was previously thought to only be a myth told to scare noobs - she pulled the audience. One minute it was us and the Wolf, the next about 50 angry patrons upset that we had interrupted their show. As ET put it, "A sea of rampaging undead storming onto the stage and killing all of Midnight's Children were angered by a stray arrow from the Hunters bow". Unfortunately there is no screenshot, but Blacky summed it up nicely - "I thought that was just the stuff of legend. How dare I underestimate the Midnights Children's ability to pull off such great wipe."

Some post match analysis has revealed the theory that Irational actually did this on purpose, in order to finally dispatch Blackheathen, which in turn allowed us to complete the event. Whilst this sounds like a very dubious theory, there's no disputing the result:
