first day in hades

Logged in and started clearing out Merlore and Hanashino's inventory in preparation for the world shift. Delete the chars and created new ones from Panquador's gracious WP. Decided to create Hanashino on the PS2 acct and Merlore on the PC acct. I'm just so used to playing whm on ps2 and war on pc that it's a hard habit to break. The closest analogy would be if one had to play the piano with crossed arms where you have to all of a sudden play chords with the right hand and melody with the left.

Settled in San D'Oria, and went out hunting, got lv 2 when I get a /tell from Panq! She graciously gave us a linkpearl and bought equip and helped PL us to lv 4! Needless to say, I'm indebted to her....not just in equipment but something more intangible. The only thing to do besides paying her back monetarily is to play the chars well and pull our own weight in Genesis LS.

Met some of the other folks from the LS via chat, they seem friendly enough. I thought I would miss playing Berdain and Kami seeing that they're about 600 tnl 21 on PLD and BLM. But I had such a blast playing morning that the first thought after I logged was "Can't wait until I can play Merlore and Hanashino tomorrow...."

The thought of a new beginning is kinda daunting, but relatively benign compared to what's ahead of Merlore and Hanashino in high levels. Can't wait to get PLD + BLM combo going with Merlore and Hanashino.
