How is our Age of Enlightenment going?
Here's what I said in my 9th Anniversary speech on January 19, 2007 about the Age of Enlightenment. How are we doing?
Quote:
Today, we are completing our 6-month Age of Cities that focused on defining our cities, our governments, and our citizenry. That Age is now over. Our "stage" has been built.
Today we start a new Age, called the Age of Enlightenment. This dinner tonight is symbolic of what is to come and can be. I look around and I see the faces of all kinds of people. I see citizens and friends, and who knows maybe a few enemies too. We are a melting pot in this community-at-large with great diverse interests.
And in this Age of Enlightenment, we seek to do one simple thing. Be here, in the Realm, doing all the things we enjoy together. We can immerse ourselves completely in this environment, this Realm. Each of us brings a gift to others and the Realm, and that is our personality and creativity. Whether interested in combat or quests or commerce, we have a place here.
Over the next six months, our cities will prosper at a pace of quality, always seeking respect among people of all natures. Our goals are to aid the young and rekindle any lost spirit in the veterans. We will encounter races of beings, such as orcs, vampyres, kobolds, elves, humans and many more who come in the sense of lore, legends, and creativeness. We will encounter situations in the Realm and react to them from within the Realm.
The Age of Enlightenment is a focus on the people and less on the government. Yet the government officials will perform their functions and roles as defined by our "stage", and to the expectations of all our citizens. We will work with other cities and towns, such as Guardians Gate. Already they have provided the wine at our festival dinner, brought carefully by sea and not magical means from their winery. We will encounter new towns and cities in the future, and form diplomatic relations. We will work with guilds to help them prosper and increase their enjoyment.
My friends, PaxLair will always take risks to try something new. It will not dwell on the past, but it will learn from the past and move forward. And I personally thank everyone here tonight because each of you bring value to us all.
Dragonspeed to you all, Dragonspeed to PaxLair, and Dragonspeed to the Realm! Thank you.
