House Galthain of Clan Satal Keto

Quaestor: Battlemaster Pyralis

Aedile: Dark Jedi Knight Bobxavi

October 26, 2002

Pyralis exited his chambers and walked outside of the Dark Hall. He listened to the world around him. The wind blew with an eerie howl. The sky was completely black except for the faint stars above, twinkling. The forest was black, and you could not hear it. All he could hear was the wind. There was no other reality. You felt the wind, you heard the wind, and now, Pyralis saw the wind.

He saw the wind tear into the trees, waving, bending, breaking. The wind bit into his tough skin with tremendous force. The temperatures were dropping rapidly. A storm was brewing. It was so loud. The wind showed no signs of dying off. It only intensified. Pyralis could no longer keep his eyes open...blind.

Now, total darkness. He could see nothing, hear nothing, nor feel anything. Only the wind remained. It permeated his existence. It was a rigid bath of coldness and darkness. Pyralis raised his arms into the air. He could feel the clouds coming. The twilight of the heavens covered with a solid, opaque blackness. Lightning struck somewhere, but there was no light. Only the sound of thunder rang out overhead...and the wind... The wind was the Force...

During these times, Pyralis felt his strongest. He gathered strength from the darkness...and under the dark storm he chose to meditate during these trying times.

Recruiting:

I've received many replies from Sith Rogue Jedi. I've isolated one or two more for induction into Galthain when they graduate. However all the others, I don't know about. We can only wait and see! DJK Talon Jade is working on a maximum of 6 people for Ghostrider currently. I've been told though, that it may take some time to get them >7 days. So, we wait in anticipation! lol

Multiplayer Ladder:

Still, very little participation! But, I don't want to move the times because I've been told people like ZysFryar, and Ashmaster might be able to participate soon! I hope ;) Remember, tomorrow, 14:00 eastern time, which is 19:00 UK time...and for the US people, remember to set your clocks back one hour tonight. I'm not sure what other time zones do this yet :P

Single Player Ladder:

Because I'm a nice guy, I'm extending the deadline for submissions until Monday morning (to give you the rest of the weekend to fly and submit). So far, myself and TK-2107 have been the only ones to submit. I WANT MORE!! :) Since the TIE Corps database is up, you can just go to the battle center to download the battles now: http://www.emperorshammer.net/battles/battletypes.asp

Nothing to report on :P

Goals for next week:

1) Even more participation in the SP ladder and Bobxavi's competition, play as many battles as you can. Whether it's one or 10, I'm happy :) It may seem like there's a lot of assignments, but if you space things out, it's possible to complete them.

2) Increase Galthain’s membership (hopefully this will occur this week!)

3) More reasons to promote and give out awards for next week!

May darkness guide you...
