And this all started from needing to find some Marble. &#8230; I just.. wow. Such wow.<br \/>\nWill explain this VERY active evening later on in the post.<\/p>\n<p>First things first, I <strong>finally<\/strong> removed that ugly clay island! The area looks so much better. I then went on and started construction of the new boat dock (and hoped it would be done before Wurm Winter happened).<br \/>\nSadly it wouldn&#8217;t due to not having enough Marble I collected last year in the FM Mine. So I tried looking for any marble in the abandoned mines around my deed.<br \/>\nThe first one was the El Rancho Canal (north of the deed a bit. A less than a minute boat ride). No Marble here.<br \/>\nTried the abandoned mine within a short walking distance, also north of the deed. Again, no Marble. The mobs in the mine were bugged out (stuck, but attacked when I got close). I even managed to kill my first ever cave bug!<\/p>\n<p>The 3rd and final one (which held a really nasty(yet fucking epic at the same time)) surprise was the mine in the abandoned deed Southeast of me. The area was safe. I ran around trying to find the main mine, but it seems it has collapsed from years of being abandoned.<br \/>\nCame up on their secondary mine. There was a bear in it. So I went in the cave to kite the bear out like normal. And then&#8230;. then&#8230;. something BIG came out of the darkness! That something freaked me out and made me hit the Power button on my keyboard instead of the screenshot button.<\/p>\n<p>Got on my alt, and went to kchat. I told them &#8220;remember that Red Dragon Hatchling you guys were looking for? Well now it&#8217;s EATING MY MAIN!!!&#8221;<br \/>\nFor the first time, ever, since I played Wurm (and was told it would never happen)&#8230; I had a living &#8216;The aged red dragon hatchling&#8217;, unfenced, near my deed!! HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>I then used my alt to try to get to my corpse and horse, but the dragon.. HOLY FUCK was it fast, chased my alt back to my deed. Thankfully this served as a distraction to get my main on. Found him dead and had to respawn at the token. Went back, and the dragon still pursued me.<br \/>\nOne time I even spun around and <a href=\"http:\/\/puu.sh\/t3p0Y\/ed02e97641.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">got this image<\/a> of it running towards me, and <a href=\"http:\/\/puu.sh\/t3oWS\/93f840130e.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">this mind-blowing image<\/a> of the dragon just standing there about ready to rip shit up. I thought any second it was going to destroy the gate, but then it ran up the hill and disappeared into the woods.<\/p>\n<p>So I was in quite the perdiciment. All of my stuff is in my corpse (with my horse). And everytime I tried to go get it, the irony kept coming for me.<br \/>\nAnd to set it in stone even more, this guy named &#8216;Champagnedragon&#8217; started talking about the dragon, and how my name was ironic. Continues on by saying &#8220;probably hated his name&#8221; and &#8220;probably thought he was its mother&#8221;&#8230; REAL funny. Yet here&#8217;s the real irony, Mr &#8220;ChampagnDRAGON&#8221;. What about you, huh? Your name is just <em>as<\/em> ironic as mine.<br \/>\n&#8230;However, the only reason he said those things was because I was freaking out. But can you blame me? The last time I got close to one of these was back in 2010 (Erik the Red). For that thing to come out of the mine without warning, YEAH it scared the fuck out of me!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I got someone that came all the way from the Celebration server to assist me. Name&#8217;s &#8220;Andderson&#8221;. He didn&#8217;t really talk much, but what we did was he helped me get to my corpse (the dragon thankfully wasn&#8217;t there sleeping on it). Then he suggested (after seeing proof of the dragon&#8217;s existence) that we throw it back into a mine and then seal the entrance with a mine door (and block access to everyone).<br \/>\nI agreed to the idea (since there&#8217;s no way in hell we can take on a dragon) and suggested to seal it up in that mine to the north of me. So he made the mine doors (had to make two as the second one is boat access).<\/p>\n<p>Once they were made, he told me to wait for his signal and then seal him up (with the dragon(though he&#8217;s still able to get out)). This..didn&#8217;t work as planned. First the doors are very heavy. And the other was my fault. He managed to get the dragon into the mine, yet I was too far away and it escaped&#8230;and then turned its attention on me. I nearly.. nearly died by the time I was able to seal it up. But wow, was the attack animation SO FUCKING COOL!!!<br \/>\nI saw it fly in place, and even saw it breath fire in my face. But at the end, we did the job. The guy patched me up, but I had to make a healing cover that was strong enough to get this one medium (which was my first Bad when the dragon bit me) to heal properly.<\/p>\n<p>Without a word, he went back to his boat and sailed back to his server. I wanted to give him something for helping me, but he said to just create a post on the forum to slay the thing (when I&#8217;m free).<br \/>\nI just hope by the time the Impalong is over and I complete B2&#8217;s boat, that the hatchling doesn&#8217;t grow up by then.<\/p>\n<p>I still feel&#8230;something. Of course one of those somethings is &#8220;this day will go down in history&#8221;. First time I saw a Unique not behind three layers of fences, and first time a unique spawned near a deed&#8230; my deed. Who knows how long the poor thing has been &#8216;hiding from the hunters&#8217; down there. I also learned to just fucking order the Marble I need and have it either delivered to me (or go pick it up). Either way it&#8217;ll have to wait &#8217;till <em>after<\/em> the Impalong to complete the boat docks, which is unfortunate.<\/p>\n<p>A day later, it&#8217;s Wurm Winter now. With the dragon now sealed in my neighbor&#8217;s mine (which feels like that one scene from <em>The Simpsons Movie<\/em> of Homer putting a bee nest in the Flanders&#8217; mailbox and shaking it.. I consider it a bit of revenge for taking my Corbita), I need to think of how to keep others from either slapping a deed over the mine (or managing to break down the mine doors and let it loose).<br \/>\nYes, that wasn&#8217;t my thought when my nerves were so shot last night that I feel I needed to go to the hospital and get the bullet removed. But I now see it wasn&#8217;t something to fear, but to show off.<br \/>\nIt just kills me. Of all the places for this thing to be hiding in&#8230; why there? Was it a sign? An omen? Though I don&#8217;t think an omen would try to kill you (just warn you).<\/p>\n<p>Maybe the dragon emerged to show his dominance over me. It saw me as a rival dragon..person thing and it wanted to fight me to the death(why it never destroyed my deed). But really, if I could only tame it (or get a Priest to Dominate it for me), I would keep it in my animal pen as a pet. Call it &#8220;Erik the 4th&#8221; or something (in memory of Erik the Red). I have an awesome thing here: a real live dragon. If only I wasn&#8217;t scared like a mouse being chased by a cat, I could had used B2 instead of this guy to kite it into the mine and then seal it off behind him. That would had definitely showed my dominance as the &#8220;Alpha Dragon&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I also feel nervous, which that alone is ironic as fuck. I feel the dragon is going to bust itself out of that mine and then come after me and my deed..and burn it to the ground. Everytime I step out of my deed anymore, I get this VERY nervous feeling that the dragon is literally right behind me and about to wreck me.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nI was given a suggestion of either re-deeding the area the dragon is in, or fencing it. Call it &#8220;Dragonhead&#8217;s Drake&#8221; or something like that. Was even given a &#8220;if you need help, let me know and I&#8217;ll do the fence for you&#8221; thing.<br \/>\nAlso, this guy &#8220;Garit&#8221;, he actually knows angry. He told me that angry had quit Wurm due to boredom and coding, and then logged off in the guy&#8217;s boathouse (with &#8216;his sailboat&#8217;.. aka the sailboat I had before I told him &#8220;I don&#8217;t care anymore&#8221;.<br \/>\nAka, why he left my main for dead at Volcano Forest.<br \/>\nThough it makes me wonder if this guy knows who were the previous owners of my deed, and why they left. I assume is because they drained my mine of Iron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who would&#8217;ve known that something you love (and been itching to see show up near you)&#8230;., would be the thing that kills you and nearly wrecks your deed.
