KoY used to have the most amusing ceremonies for entrance and promotion. All would gather in the tavern - Sword Swamp is where I witnessed this tradition time and again - OUT would come the KoY sword o'chaos, or maybe it was the sword o'harmony. It was a REALLY big sword, regardless. Down on one shoulder it would sail, up and over to the other shoulder. A few words were pronounced, a new KoY made or raised. My part lay in the fact that I could never ignore the blood that would spurt from the almost always nearly severed ear of the current lucky KoYling - out I would rush from the shadow of the tavern, bandaid in hand. I don't think any high ranking KoY ever thanked me for my aid to their guild. Not once. Humph... Oh sure - they TRIED to tell me there was no blood, no dangling ear, no internal screams of pain from the KoY newb of the night - I never fell in to the trap of denial. Nope. There I was, with my bandaid, always...
Its never too late to thank a helpful soul.

I was Captain of the Guard before the unfortunate greedy empire on INN did us all in hehe. But it looks like many adventures await us again with Yserbius.org! Thanks you guys for taking the time and effort to revive a lost relic that is unique in every way. I spent many a moons and $$$ playing this pioneering Graphic MUD. It was truly a marvel in it's time. And the friends and fun made stuck with me even till this day. I hope to see many of them return so we can hear the calling of the Volcano once more! Ladychina is here! Woohoo! Come on luv! We must resurrect our comrads and allies to combat the many evils lurking in the deepest pits of the cano! I stand proud to bare the name of ^KOY^ once again! Join me my fellow KOYeons and lets us build our great empire once more! HAIL KOY!
