It all started here, many years ago... and i was honored to train many... Leet, Destiny, Biggy, Provocator, Barefoot Princess... and many more used this home to learn the tricks of the trade...

We also did some hunting and sometimes, not few, we were the hunted... i'm the one pointed at and yes... i got the House in a little trouble.. hehe
We also did some team training and in this event, me, Biggy and Provocator went to Wrong 2... we fought many ettins but in the end it was so safe it was boring...

Soon the Gentle Rest was too small and i was given the choice of giving my home, Biggy's home for a two story... the Gentle Rest Inn... it was 400k and our two homes... maybe it was worth it, maybe not... but we had a new home... a Inn where Rosmars could gather... and a Penninsula full of monsters just outside... it was perfect... but... i wanted to hunt reds, to make some Good, to hunt the wicked... maybe evil is part of the past maybe not but many pks are still in uo... many new pk guilds are training even now... why??

It was then that we had our problems... first i recruited many new folk... thinking my first experience could be repeated... and i could train 13 more... this time the names were different... Heldon, Dana, Korce, Nicodemus, Gandalf, Destiny, Leet, Tenchi, Unotheguy, BigTimm, Mustang, Araujo, Teron, Kristen, Vedder, Smaug and Marquis that left all he had to join us... and so many others. I did many mistakes... for instance, i thought all of them could get along, i did not respect Kristen and thought she was self sufficient so i did not worry if she lived or died because she was a veteran of many hunts, and that was disrespectfull... to the extreme and she is royalty. On the other hand i was lucky enough to have Biggy coming with me from The House Rosmar but when werent we together? That one is easy, after i made GRI.. hehe. Many of the new members could not stand others, many had different perspectives of Fun... some wanted gold, others loot, others pvping... well... we cant have it all.. GRI grew too fast, many wanted to train and get gm in this or that skill, i always helped and i tried to delegate authority... Dana was the recruiter, never failing.. Korce was the trainer of our archers and captain of the archers when in battle, the Red Dragons... Nicodemus was the captain of the Black Dragons, the anti pk force.. and unique... Big Timm was the head of the guild, while i was the heart.. or at least i thought i was right , that i was making the right choices.. Big Timm always stood by me, never failing once unlike me.. i never knew i should heal others in battle.. lesson learned my friend..Biggy was the captain of the Paladins, a rping wing.. and Heldon was the Black Dragon second in command and Unotheguy was the captain of the Purple Dragons, our main wing. Many others were officers but those were our core and we had the earth Dragons our artesans... so many dreams and 8 months wasted... i turned to a slave of the guild.. "i need training, i need a res, i need a home, i need, i need, i need, i need..." well, they surely needed, but i also needed time to think and to rest from gming a guild... we also met a guild named pkt and for 3 and half months, we fought them, losing much but learning much too, and today we can say we fought a anti guild guild and we lived... but after i took some vacations from ultima, tired and extremely RED (240+ hours), when i got back everything was crumbling... and why should we try to rebuild guild.. i always think my first instinct is the rigth thing to do.. so i let the guild stone die and when GRI was gone i felt Good... Free.. and now i'm having some time for myself.. yup, i'm having some fun again.. also, we had a plan.. to place our homes in the Penninsula.. i spent many weeks trying to find house spots for all members.. and in the night of the house placement guess who was there, me, Biggy (always around!!) and Heldon, guess who placed?? yup, all of us..
Having house spots for all is worth losing weeks if people dont care? i think not.. but i learned that the hard way...
I placed a Tower exactly where i wanted, no competition, and Biggy did not placed a Tower because i asked him to place a keep for a friend and he wasnt lucky.. good thing we had backup spots for cabins.. but i apologise for asking.. you could have a nice BIG Tower now..
