  It was a warm day that spread across the cold land of Taillteann that has just awoken from its nightly slumber. The insects were chirping, and the cold wet dewy grass reflected the morning rays that pierced the misty peaks of the mountainous landscape.
  
  The young alchemist, after her victory over the infamous Partholonian Prince and obtained the Brionac, she felt excited to begin the day as a new wielder of the Brionac.
  
  As she approached the Taillteann Altar, she saw several people standing there and a sign saying:
  
  [Dungeon]<Party>: g9/final - adv
  
  And thought it must be her lucky day! Running up, she filled the second to last slot of 8 people, happily gaining her 7th member badge.
  
  All the members were excited, discussing among themselves on what to do when they fight Claimh Solas and the delicious experience that would be rewarded among them. The party leader cheerfully remarked that we would be waiting for an eighth person to join, and not before long, the final 8th slot was filled with a member.
  
  She mused to herself on how lucky it was since a g9 final team slots get filled fast and everyone was ready. With a cheer, everyone hurriedly typed in "go go go!" to the party leader with flames of passion burning in each member.
  
  However the party leader shook his head and responded, "Sorry, before we go in, let me prepare a few stuff, I don't want to go in unprepared."
  
  The group understood and waited... and waited... and waited...
  
  The group of the leader kept making stuff in his hands and the group were testing out his patience. He even announced he needs to go to the bank... so he left for Taillteann.
  
  The young alchemist and her party members waited and waited, and soon everyone got upset.
  
  They messaged to the party leader to hurry and no response was given. A full Erinn day passed with the leader missing. They were discussing who should go to the party leader to check up on him.
  
  After a heated discussion, the young alchemist was chosen, so she summoned her pet broom and rode to Taillteann.
  
  When she came near the bank, she spotted the leader.
  
  "Hey!" She called out drawing nearer... but as she came closer she heard a "bleep" sound and the party leader left the party... sad... everyone in the party moaned about wasting time and left on their own.
  
  The girl, a bit sad that she wasted a whole Erinn day went to Tara to find a party that was still going on.
  
  
  Later that day, she got a strange mail in her mailbox. She went over to check on it and there in her mailbox were 100 mp100 potions!
  
  Surprised, she checked the sender and recognized it as the party leader from earlier! She noticed that the first and second message sent to her was a note from him and she opened it to read:
  
  
  I am sorry about earlier. Today was Monday and I could not get anyone to find a production party with. I got upset. So I made a g9 final party as a joke to see if people would be suddenly willing to join, and they joined!
  
  So I took advantage of it and finished all of my potion making that had to be done for me to level up. I am sorry to deceiving you all, so I am sending everyone my stock of mp100 that I made during that time.
  
  
  And with that, she took the mp100 to her inventory and mused. While he did take advantage of people's time to force them into a production party under the guise of a g9 final, he did send them something back. It made her wonder about production parties and people joining them and hope that the party leader from before would have a better time in the future.

  Lol another good story. I like your writing style Kenero, its got a good feel of progression. Some minor grammatical errors but I felt the mood you were trying to convey.
  
  By the way, are these stories from your actual experiences, completely made up or adaptations of your experiences?

  Actual experience that happen (though not all necessarily from me), though I do like to add in the atmosphere and whatnot to it.
  
  I like to share tales of the Mabinogi world because what makes Mabinogi, well Mabinogi, is our interactions with people. It isn't the pixels, the equipment, or the fake ground, but rather our sense of achievement, failure, friendship, love, loyalty, loss, and finding that we come to love Mabinogi over the years.
  
  To properly say it is that we develop close attachment to Mabinogi because we experience reality through this game in that we grow up through our own hearts and passion, and now and then I wish to share it when the time feels right.
  
  The Mabinogi World we experience isn't our avatars of killing monsters, but memories that we hold stemmed deep from our emotions and attachments to other players of the world.
