NEW LANDS, NEW WORLDS...WHAT? NEW BAD PEOPLE TOO!!!!

Well, now I am up to date. Monday at Mastery Quest was awesome! I walked in right on time from a long road trip back to California. I got some cool welcoming hugs and I was excited to get back to playing. Game Master, Jay-Jay, Anthony, Nick, April, Timmy, Jett, K.C...everyone was there. Awesomeness!!
Here is a small clip of the day's questers doing the Game Master's Challenge

When I entered the game I noticed there were three new worlds. [The Arena] had entered the world again. Which by the way seems extremely popular. The shadow lands has a new design and looks A LOT MORE friendlier and there is also a new land that is home to the Shinobi Tribe. (I think that's how you spell it.) On Monday the world was told to retrieve twelve items that were scattered all over the world and combine them. That will bring an end to Omegas. Side note- I can't really give you to much on Omegas because he arrived during the weeks I missed. From what I learned so far, he is not exactly bad or good. He is here to somewhat put stuff in order his way. He is also here because his sword led him here and he feels the need that wherever the sword leads him is where he should take over. Something like that. Don't quote me though, please. Back to the story, I wanted to begin getting the items so we can combine them. This was on Monday and I am now posting this blog on Wednesday and with all these questers in the world this task is still not complete. Due to side tracks with Arena challenges, people wanting to gain control dealing with Omegas, and a few just living their day to day lives not caring to much, we are still not completely safe from this Omegas character. To be honest it is expected, it is kind of like real life. It is not until we are almost towards doom that people tend to really get down to business. I hope that doesn't happen this week though in Mastery Quest. Honestly, some of these questers are extremely intelligent and creative. Yet it takes us days to get things done sometimes. From what I have observed it seemed Quester April had retrieved a lot of crystals but somehow they ended up with Omegas's wife. Check 1! Anthony I believe had some also but they ended up with the Rhino Gang. Check 2! Only crystals left are from Jay-Jay's sister who  retrieved two and I believe they are still safe.

I decided to go to the new Shinobi tribe and retrieve the few I saw in their land. I began going to the land on Monday and I finally got out today (Wednesday). Traveling in the Shinobi land is extremely difficult. It takes a massive load of leg strength. Luckily I had my partner in crime Quester Nicholas to give me some good laughs and travel along with me to retrieve the crystals. There are certainly secrets in this land I found out about. Secrets and more secrets of how to travel. One neat thing there is called The Tree of Life. There are consequences of eating from it. I haven't seen anything absolutely bad or good. But with a title like that and little knowledge of it I chose to just wait and see if it is ABSOLUTELY necessary to take from it. I had an adventure getting them I must say. I talked to some flowers. Yes talked to flowers. I walked on some serious grass that can trap you. And I had the awesome opportunity of getting near The Tree of Life and surviving it's swinging branches.

Altogether I ended up with five crystals. One came from Quester K.C. who happened to be in the land and grabbed one for me. Due to my body constantly yelling at me, "Are you crazy, LET ME REST DUDE!!" So I paid him 25 Million gold to get the last one for me. Once I finally collected all the crystals in the Shinobi land I was so excited to finally leave after spending all three days there. Once out I realized that there was one main thing going on. The Crystal War starring [Jay-Jay VS Timmy]. They are both after these crystals but for different reasons.

Within the last hour of Mastery Quest today Jay-Jay, Anthony, Nicholas and I were in a challenge against Omegas himself. If we lose this challenge we all will lose a level of power. If we win he will hand over the last crystal we need. The first round we had to hold the push up position longer than 4 minutes and 46 seconds. Sadly, we lost the first round due to me. My arms were screaming at me at the ten second mark...(Did you read earlier where my body said "Are you crazy, LET ME REST DUDE!!"?..yeah I meant that.) So eventually they went on without me to the next challenge which I am glad they did. Jay-Jay for some reason thinks that just because of a "college student" title I am smarter and stronger than every 11 year old. Will someone else please help him out and tell him the actual truth, because for some reason my honest truth isn't enough for him to believe. They did not get to the third round because Mastery Quest ended for the day but will continue tomorrow.

I still have the crystals and I have my own plan on what to do with them if no peace is done. Hopefully Jay-Jay goes through with his plan and he can retrieve these last five he needs. I will help if he actually goes through with the plan to combine all 12 and get rid of Omegas. Guess we will see on Thursday!

TAKE A MOMENT...(EXTRA)

On a side note!!
I also forgot to mention, after I jumped off I ended up in the mansions world but I don't remember going through the normal way. I believe I ended up in the abyss and had a tedious task to try and get out. I remember part of getting out consisted of doing 100 extra legs lifts. While doing the leg lifts deep down in the dark abyss I heard a voice talking to me. 

It was asking me, "Do you want to be set free?"
(Pause for dramatic effect)

At the time I knew that a bunch of people were after me and wanted me to hand over the suitcase or at least tell them where I put it. I said no to the voice. I knew with a lot of work I would be able to escape without his help, but that was not the end. Not even one minuets later I all of a sudden heard the voice again. It was saying, "This is The One. If you do not take my hand I will destroy EVERYONE in your world. The citizens, academy masters, everyone." Then in the midst of the dark abyss I saw a hand coming closer and closer to me waiting for me to take hold of it. For a split second I thought, If I take hold of his hand what will he do to me afterwards. If do not take his hand everyone will have been destroyed in the game, because of me. Do you save yourself or save the lives of others and go with someone who is after you?

I stopped what I was doing and took his hand...

TAKE A MOMENT...

First off let me start by saying I apologize for my absence.

It literally has been weeks. A lot has happened since my last blog. I do feel it is necessary for me to begin this "catch up"  beginning at the Dance School very briefly. Briefly, only because I did not take many notes and forgot some details (sad face) my apologies again.

What I can recall is that a character called The One entered the world. I can remember him telling the entire world to come after me because at that time I was carrying the suitcase with The Nameless One inside of it. After numerous threats from Master Kabir, He and I decided to make a treaty that allowed me 48 hours to put the suitcase away. After this I would allow him to retrieve the suitcase. I doubt he was expecting me to take a full game day to get my part completed.

 It really did take me 3 hours and 45 minutes of physical activities and brain problems to get that task done. Just in case you read that to fast, THREE HOURS AND FORTY-FIVE MINUTES!! It truly is a task to get the suitcase. I did not come up with this process to prove anything to anyone. But only to show that if anything seems to be taking you off your course, anything that maybe distracting you from your true purpose, put it in a suitcase and bury it so far away that you will never want to go back and get it.

Yes. YOU have the BUILT-IN POWER to do that on your own from within.

So now lets fast forward to the next game day and there were more problems, of course. The One was demanding much more and Eldron asked me to do something my mind was not ready for..literally. Plain and simple, Eldron asked me to retrieve something and not even 3 seconds after him telling me, I jumped off the side of the Air Lands ground. Truly. Unexpected.

Now that decision is still a mystery to me. As to what drove me to wanting to jump off and commit suicide?!? The decision was completely THOUGHTLESS and UNINTENTIONAL. For some reason I feel, I just acted on impulse and jumped. Even the Game Master had a look on his face of concern, as if saying,"Did this guy really just jump off killing himself?" Well after having a few minutes to realize what just happened, we came to the conclusion that most-likely the STRESS of holding something cosmically powerful and having everyone after me finally had caught up to me.

As crazy as this all seems, there usually is always a lesson if you pay close attention. I learned that while what I had done was big, I did not take time to sit back and realize it for myself. I did not take a moment to recognize that since I started Mastery Quest this summer, the one person who tricked every person she came in contact with, the one person who used people for her own selfish good, and bribed people to do deeds that she was to scared to do herself , was now in the palms of my hands. I saw her misuse the innocent, start huge rivalries between friends, and lie to questers just to get them to bow down and fear her.

I had a choice to try and put her away, or put her back in the world. I had chosen to put her away and immediately get back to work. Now looking back, immediately getting back to work may have been a little to much so soon. There seems to always be something that needs to get done, but sometimes, every once in a while it is ok to sit back and have a moment for your body and soul to refuel for your next quest. A time to reflect on your accomplishments thus far, to remember those you met along the way, and replenish the lightning bolt we have that sits within. The lightning bolt that is refueling us with courage so we can handle our next quest. I didn't take one single minute to realize what I was doing and it drove me to eventually act on impulse. Remember this though questers. 1) Whether a light being in training or not, every quester has a suitcase they can get rid of to make the world a better place. 2) Yes we all are unique and handle situations differently but don't forget to take a quick moment for yourself, just to reflect on the good things you have done thus far.

MASTERY QUESTERS ARE INCREDIBLE!!

The Nameless One's  name of today's blog...The Nameless Residue..

Today's adventure from my point of view started off helping Riley (Initiate) save The Fairies in the water lands. Later on Anthony also joined to help. The three of us were capable to save The Fairies with completing multiple mental challenges and tedious physical activities. Serious physical activities now that I recall how long it took. I tell you, the things guys will do to save pretty fairies. But in actuality the reason we had to save them was because The Nameless Residue was on a mission to control them. The game master also told me that if she would have gotten complete control of The Fairies, the entire world would have been in EVEN MORE danger than its current situation.

Eventually The Nameless Residue got her hands on the star of power which gave her total control of everyone's allies. If you were guessing that she is going to use an ally in every land to destroy everyone, you guessed right. In doing this she would make the world look as if it were in horrible condition. Which in return would make the judges look at the world as if no one can control the allies and would take them away from everyone completely. Some of us tried to defeat the allies but they were extremely powerful and it seemed like they were hardly ever damaged by our attacks. We realized this wasn't doing any good and finally everyone came together in unity to make a plan. Anthony and Jay-Jay decided to work together and have a world meeting...literally.

The end results involved everyone participating. From one point of view it looked like Jay-Jay was going to The Nameless Residue to join her. But it actually was a distraction to get her into the water lands so Anthony would be able to hack the shadow crystals to retrieve "the star of power." Jay-Jay not only had to surrender one of his governors to her but she wanted one more specific quester captive...yours truly! To fool The Nameless Residue into thinking Jay-Jay was harming me he used "light pain" on me and I would do the physical activity to protect against. She sort of caught on and forced him to prove his worthiness by capturing me. He said he was going to persuade me and then she let him go. But when Jay-Jay came to me we decided to run away where she couldn't find neither one of us. We hide away from the entire game until we heard Anthony say he was complete in hacking the crystals. By the time I returned to the game The Nameless Residue was on Cresent Island next tone of Anthony's droids. He attacked her and caused some barrier around her. She couldn't go anywhere and had to do a physical activity to protect..at that moment is where it got crazy.

The Game Master (Kojo) was in no way letting her go down without a fight. To protect he had to do 100 bear crawls, 100 leg-lifts, and 100 teleport twist UNDER 15 MINUTES. We all left the room and followed him into the big room to watch him do the physical challenge. Honestly, that was absolutely incredible. Because I wasn't paying attention I thought the challenge was only 10 minutes so 9 minutes into it, I ran back into the room to get next to the nameless one. But when I came out I was told the challenge was 15 minutes. I ran back into the room to figure out what else we can do, but 13 minutes into it Riley came back into the room telling me to get back to the origianl plan I was thinking of doing. I did my exercises to move back. I came right next to THE NAMELESS RESIDUE..and opened...THE SUITCASE.

YES!!! As of now THE NAMELESS RESIDUE  IS TRAPPED INSIDE THE SUITCASE!!!!

I ended today's game in front of the abyss waiting to talk to the Melchizedek's. I will also try and put up a picture so you guys can see THE EIVIL EGG-FACE NAMELESS RESIDUE  inside the suitcase once again! I plan to put her away for a while. The conversation between the Melchizedek's and I did not happen yet but will hopefully begin on Sunday's session. I want some good advice on what to do to her. I kind of wonder if it would be best just to give her back to The Golden Order. But I have some ideas of a tremendously difficult trap if someone was destined to get her out. This adventure shall continue on Sunday!!!!!!

Here are some pictures of me with the suitcase, my two allies and my giant standing in front of the Melchizedeks, some of the Golden Order, and Master Bo!!!

New New New

From now on in my blogs I will often give different titles for The Nameless One. As of this blog she is named MISS EVIL EGG-FACE. 

MISS EVIL EGG-FACE was once again let free. Not even a full game day was she trapped! Honestly, an escape from her was expected but not so suddenly. As soon as she was set free, because she fears those who rebel against her, I had to receive a little gift from her...GRAVITY CURSE!!!! I have to wear the weight vest now until further notice. I was the only one MISS EVIL EGG-FACE gave a gift to by the way...what ridiculousness she does me.

Beyond that Anthony and I were given some awesome guidelines today. They were focused more so on having a true light being heart all the time. What really makes a light being's light shine from within. I can honestly say that after that talk, Anthony and I made our own pact on being true to our titles as best as we can.

Also in today's adventure....EVERYONE GOT DESTROYED! Haha ok a little dramatic but somewhat true. Everyone had to go to the mansion world and find a way to escape. Jay-Jay (Guild Master) kept trying to bribe me into joining him and all the other players so that together we can destroy "the hunter." Due to my past experiences with Jay-Jay, I tend not to follow so closely to anyone who is so focused on destroying people. That decision would eventually catch up with me in the future. We ended up compromising to a somewhat agreement that I will go with him but only that I will help capture the hunter and he will eventually destroy him himself.

Due to everyone being destroyed when I got out of the mansion world I was completely shocked to see no one in the academy. Not a single character was there. This will change the game a lot.

Guess tomorrow we will find out where all this will leads us.....

Nameless Non-sense!!

Todays adventure in mastery quest was very...interesting.

The Lemonade Stand, was full of new faces today and I believe we all had a good time...overall. As usual The Nameless One was after me. She tricked two new questers into handing me an element that trapped me in The Nameless Prison. While I was waiting to be saved, someone stole my personalized suitcase that I made. strong enough to capture level 7 beings. The case was stolen and tampered with, to trap Anthony (a light being) under the earth kingdom. Later on in the game a magnetizer was set off on top of the lava temple that absorbed every quester's items. Including the cosmic gauntlet that I recently JUST  FOUND!

Since there is always a bright side, today's bright side was that The Nameless One got captured inside a force field projected by her own shadow crystals in the shadowlands. I was told how to help set her free...but WHY WOULD I DO THAT?  Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to buy my items back from the merchant store and keep The Evil Nameless One inside of her own trap! 

If I Can Say Anything......

There was one point in the game where my mission was to help bring another quester out of the earth kingdom back to the academy. While doing this The Nameless One, being the evil one that she is, announced that she wanted everyone in the land to bow down to her. Making everyone do 40 leg lifts. After doing the leg lifts she would accept your physical activity as worship. I, out of roughly 12 questers was the first to rebel from that nonsense. In doing this, another quester decided not to worship her either. Of course it seemed like a great idea but because of that choice we had to do non-stop physical activity otherwise be destroyed by nameless spears. After myself and the other fearless quester finally got to (in this case) a safe area, we were given the option of getting our first allies. We went through the missions that the allies gave us and in the end, we both received the allies!

After that experience I came to the conclusion that no one actually has to do anything The Nameless One says. Even though she may seem terrifying at times, there is ALWAYS the option of not listening to her. I find that the more I personally stand up to her, the more she sees me as a threat because I do not bow down to her and find a way to keep progressing in my quest. At times she fools people by seeming friendly and understanding, but in reality she is the total opposite. She will end up using you. She will blind you by offering you a lot of things you need and want, but it is not worth giving in to her and loosing your freedom. If I can say anything, when you find yourself in a situation with the nameless one just remember... YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE IN!!

A Few Pictures from last week

At the Lemonade Stand

Beginning The Quest

Wow!

This mastery quest adventure has been incredible. I will begin by saying that I am enjoying my quest on becoming a light being. I can't wait to see how far I get in the game. Last week was my first week playing Mastery Quest. We were located at "The Lemonade Stand" and had TONS of fun and laughter. Unfortunately, "The Nameless One" was constantly trying to persuade me to follow her and get me off my course.

I definitely have learned a lot about the game. I was able to get two allies and helped save some of the new questers from the shadow lands. Mastery Quest has been such an awesome opportunity and I can not wait for next week at "Baha'i Center"!!
