Come one come all!
Gather around the fire of the dying magnetar Comagf (1:1:1) the Center of the Cetus Universe.
As we continue the Galactic Adventures of our favorite Gnome and his merry band of Knights Templar!
This journey was joined by a most noble Knight Paladin, Anonymous.
For those that have followed these Adventures we know much of our Heroic Gnome, but so little of our Knight Paladin.
So allow me to shed some light on this enigma. Our Paladin was once a wonderful Queen named Taarna. After a sex change operation and hormone treatment they Became the Paladin Known as Anonymous He enjoys long rides on his noble Black Stead, clearing the roads for helpless travelers and keeping the weak safe from vicious Bullies. A true Templar and one our Gnome was honored to fly with.
So now that we know a little of our Knight Paladin let focus our sights on the Prey at hand, Our parasitic entity. Now this goes back to the very birth of the Cetus Universe. For all the good in the universe, there is equal evil and when the Cetus Universe came to be, the Parasite was the most evil of them all.
From Cetus being only 48 light hours old, our Parasite found that there was no such thing as a bashing rule (Thanks Support. Utterly ridiculous!!) The First 48 hours are the most precious in the development of accounts, and for those not spending on the game being bashed endlessly by a multi million point account is disgusting and made many players quit the uni before it even began.
Our Gnome found himself Neighbor to this Demonic Parasite and so instead of feeding this Bully he had to immediately abandon his Home Planet as soon as he had another colony to run off with. What a wonderful set back. But as he gallantly led the Gnomes far away from this parasitic horror he vowed to never forget the endless Gnomes that had met a pointless death.
As time went on the Parasite brought more and more evil doers to his side all with the same thirst for blood and preying on the weak. They made a pact with the chea… I mean those that don’t have to follow the rules alliance **cough** SGS **cough** (Sorry, still have that cold caused by their BS emissions) so that they could focus on preying on the small and weak. This pact was short lived as their words meant nothing and they broke their pact of good faith by crashing one from the BS alliance. Not a surprise to many of this universe as the word from either of the Alliances seem to be supported by the foundation of lies they spew. A house of toothpicks if you will.
Now as this pact devolved into chaos and both sides of the pacts searched for hits on each other, the Gnome Oracles prophesied of a Titan awakening from their deep slumber and righting the evils that had been left to run rampant.
And just as the Oracles saw, the Titan awoke.
He arose with rage in his eyes. And his target was set on the one who had brought his people harm. The Parasite, feeling the wrath of Justice, searched far and wide for help against the Big One, but none came. For who could believe you now. You had turned your back on your supposed friends and now looked to those you had bashed in the past. No You found yourself alone.
Because of this loneliness, the Parasite tried to stay awake to prevent attacks from the Titan… but even demons need to sleep
The Templars quickly saw this opening and made their move.
First night, the Parasite had left 200+m resources laying on his moon and a small cargo fleet on another moon. Both which were quickly destroyed and scooped up to bolster the ranks of the Templars. A Nice find but not nearly enough to satisfy the the retribution that the universe so desperately required.
**The Night of Parasitic Extermination**
This night began as any other night. With the Gnome and his merry band of Templars sitting around the round table enjoying the best of company and the best of Templar Ale. Laughing, Singing, Feasting as they readied themselves for the upcoming battles. They had not a worry in the world. Just before the Templars were about to call an end to the festivities, Anonymous’ voice cut through the air… has anyone checked on the Parasite?? All the Templars froze, looked at each other and jumped to action checking out all the known Parasite Planets.
And to the Templars disbelief the Parasite had left more than a mear 200m res. He decided to up the anty and leave us his entire fleet at the same moon that Gnome had visited the night prior.
Without a moment to lose the Gnome and the Paladin sprung into action. They put on their general pants and launched as soon as deut and fleets landed. Thanks to the support of many friends and Kerrigan we were able to fly and had recs in the air in no time.
As if Parasite was gifting us more of his fleet, another fleet landed on that moon but the Gnome and Paladin were unphased for the parasite had not logged into his account. We call this a cherry on top of the parasite sundae.
Time passed and then… a BANG heard across the galaxy, almost as large as the one that created cetus, was heard far and wide. Little Bizzles and other Parasite loyalists came to see what had happened only to see the parasite in shambles.
Unfortunately the Parasite came online and pulled thousands of recs out of his bunghole and scooped some of the DF. But the damage had already been done. Cetus had gotten Justice at last.
I’d say fast rebuild Parasite but it seems like you kept pulling more fleet out your bunghole and it looks like you barely lost half. You were an extremely good sport so I do wish you the best and I’m sure we will be dancing again in the future.
Dedi to the Templars and Friends for all the support.
Tracer don’t colonize near my planets, you keep spreading the BS plague you all carry, just to run away with tail between your legs.
