Emperium Weekly #3 · Ragnarok Zero WoE

Headline

Siege of Skoegul

For two issues, Skoegul was Divinity's fortress. This war, everyone came knocking: 12 guilds in 3 alliances, among them Last Gangster with a brand-new ally, Jing, plus Sustainer, Aurora and Yellow Cat. After a chaotic fight, only the Last Gangster alliance was left standing, and they kept pushing until Divinity fell. Divinity held the line for a full 30 minutes. The castle now flies Jing's flag.

Divinity didn't vanish, though. After taking a beating in Skoegul, they fell back later in the war and ended the night holding Gondul.

Thirty full minutes. That's how long both guilds stood face to face under Frost Joke and Storm Gust.

The Red Eye has arrived

Ask any Thai player from the golden era: almost everyone knows this name. •[D]estraCtiOn• is a veteran of the 2000s guild era, and now they're on ODIN at full roster. They wasted no time and went straight for Holy Shadow.

Their opening move: straight into Holy Shadow, home of the Azure and RED alliance. They wiped RED from the entrance, pushed into Azure, then turned to defend against an Emergency Call from Aurora. When the war ended, Holy Shadow belonged to the Red Eye.

WhisperA whisper on the wind: •[D]estraCtiOn• has been reading the ledger, and Secret's name is on the list.

Zone Fight

Zone fight: one win each

On ODIN, the zone fight (สู้โซน) is a tradition: two guilds skip the portal and skirmish head-on to see who's stronger. Nothing on the line but pride.

Elven Gard vs Yellow Cat

This war it was Elven Gard against Yellow Cat. Elven Gard took the first round. Yellow Cat answered by pushing in and wiping Elven Gard out. One win each: it's a draw.

Who's next? The zone is open.
