Nightfall Hard Mode: Consulate Docks

Guild Wars Nightfall Hard Mode: Consulate Docks Varesh
Having acquired the Protector of Cantha, Guardian of Cantha and Guardian of Tyria titles for my Mesmer in Guild Wars, I was 3/5 towards the Kind Of A Big Deal title and 3/6 towards the Legendary Guardian title. I logged on to Guild Wars today for the first time in seven weeks and headed over to Kamadan in order to grab the next title on the list: Guardian of Elona.

The Wintersday celebration is still going on so the Jewel of Istan was seeing a lot of the white stuff.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions review

(Original image source: Final Fantasy Wiki.)

From the Durai Papers:

“I know not what brings men joy. Of what drives them to great deeds, of what legacies they hope to leave, I know less yet. But I do know this: The true hero of this tale was the man forgotten.”
