ON THE HUNT

"Alright", Abenthy said. He paused a moment to strike a match, draw the flame into his pipe, tamp down the tobacco, and send the initial puffs of smoke into the air. "They're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us." Abenthy drew the warm Latakia tobacco smoke with a long pull deep into his lungs, held it for a moment as he looked about, and exhaled. "They can't get away this time." Abenthy and his men proceeded to hack and slash their way through the defender hordes, climbing over the bodies to catch the remaining defenders as they attempted to flee.

With successful hits on The United Federation of Planets, World Socialist Alliance, Korovia, and the Socialist Union of Authoritarian States, the Wolves have been busy pub crawling throughout the NS world and sampling what each region has to offer.

World Socialist Alliance

While scouting, we stumbled upon what seemed to be a pack of feral, free-range fascists who had taken over the region and were slapped on the wrist by the safety patrol. It appeared as though the laziest bunch of defenders had tried to reclaim the region. They successfully kicked-out the delegate leaving a fascist in charge with border control and failing to even reset the WFE! As a matter of principle, we took it upon ourselves to help this region with their pest problem. We helped properly fumigate the region, until the defenders arrived to back-up Joe the Lion; after talking for a little bit, we went on our way.

Korovia

In Korovia, Abenthy dispatches defenders in mass.

Korovia has graciously hosted the most recent party for the Wolves which, by all accounts, was a smashing success. Many flocked to the region to enjoy the party the past few updates, but we had to turn away 36 at the front door despite several attempts at bribing. Least we not forget our defender friends who were absent when the party started. Songs were dedicated to several notable individuals that were sorely missed at our festivities.

And I know there's another side
That you never show, that I gotta find
And it's not all in my mind
And I'm here, every night and day
I could be the one your love could save
Baby you left your mark, but I'm still in the dark.

Let me get this straight
The reason why I wait
I know you've been through so much pain
Baby do I wait in vain
If I could shed more light on you
Tell you what was right for you
Your beauty blinds me sure enough
But my heart knows when it's love.

Dedicated to The First Warden of Benevolent Thomas.

I dedicate this to The Traveling Adventures of WA Klopstock. You can suppress my posts but you can not suppress your burning passions.

At night—the light turned off, the filament
Unburdened of its atom-eating charge,
His wife asleep, her breathing dipping low
To touch a swampy source—he thought of death.
Her father's hilltop home allowed him time
To sense the nothing standing like a sheet
Of speckless glass behind his human future.
He had two comforts he could see, just two.

One was the cheerful fullness of most things:
Plump stones and clouds, expectant pods, the soil
Offering up pressure to his knees and hands.
The other was burning the trash each day.
He liked the heat, the imitation danger,
And the way, as he tossed in used-up news,
String, napkins, envelopes, and paper cups,
Hypnotic tongues of order intervened.

Burning Trash by John Updike

And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why I'm so relentless and all strung out
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary
I'm like Estella
I like to reel it in and then spit it out
I'm frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the Maker.

Dedicated to The Vigilant Lawman of Deadeye Jack.

I was waiting for so long
For a miracle to come

Everyone told me to be strong
Hold on and don't shed a tear
So through darkness and good times
I knew I'd make it through
And the world thought I had it all
But I was waiting for you

Hush now
I see a light in the sky
Oh it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel
With love

Let the rain come down
And wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul
And drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls
For a new sun
A new day has come
A new day has come

Dedicated to The First Warden of Benevolent Thomas for finally not disappointing me.

Ten minutes to downtown is ten minutes too far
When my friends all say I'm crazy,
Maybe I'm being selfish
Maybe I'm just scared
Don't be gone when I get home... I need you there

If I had to explain it, I wouldn't know where to start
It's like you're falling in love, while I just fall apart

Ten minutes to downtown is ten minutes too far
When my heart is saying you're crazy
Maybe things are getting better (maybe things are getting better...)
Maybe things aren't so bad (maybe things aren't so bad...)
Don't be gone when I get home... you're all I have

If I had to explain it, I wouldn't know where to start
It's like you're falling in love, while I just fall apart

Pockets empty, how can you tell me
That everything will work out...
A pointless fight when you're always right
And everything will work out

Sometimes, I miss you more
Whenever I'm at home
I've been home all summer...
Now I'm leaving you alone

Pockets empty, how can you tell me
That everything will work out...
A pointless fight when you're always right
And everything will work out...
Everything will work out...
Everything will work out...

Dedicated to Frattastan II. I promise that everything will work out.

Korovia was also a special place for Anera since it was her first defense against a liberation attempt. In all, 36 thought they could escape her.

Korovia - Anera defeats her first liberation attempt

Unfortunately, there were some bad apples in the bunch that wanted to spoil our party before it had even started. They did their best to call the cops, but were disappointed when their noise complaint went unnoticed. After a few nights of steady keg stands and karaoke, the party has ended and we’ve left the clean-up to our hosts.

Korovia has remained in contact with us since we left and they are in the process of moving to a new region because of security concerns. We always love talking to natives, especially those who bring more than salt to the table.

Socialist Union of Authoritarian States

Anerastreia and Abenthy celebrate the successful raid with a traditional LWU dance.

After a one second jump window that failed to capture Global Federation and noting the fact that we used mostly dirty pups directly from Haunted Forest to carry this out, a change of targets was decided. The Socialist Union of Authoritarian States, or SUAS for short, seemed like a decent place because of how late it was. The raid happened without issue and we even had unlikely support in the form of Altmoras II, who recently defected from their oppressive overlords within the Grey Wardens.

Scardino asked Altmoras to show him his war face

For their first raid, Altmoras did a pretty decent job.

We invite Altmoras to come and join Lone Wolves United, where their urges towards raiding can be more than adequately satiated among friends.

CULTURE

With a sudden rush of artistic energy and opiates, a renaissance of the humanities has struck Lone Wolves United as beautiful designs for the Lone Puppet flag have poured in with submissions to end and voting to take place soon. In similar fashion, Scardino has created breath-taking portraits of LWU members in the Skype chat. Lamb Stone has also helped broaden the musical catalog of the region, introducing everyone to strange, edgy, and sometimes completely fictional musical groups. Efforts are also underway to help piece together some highly engaging role-playing topics on the forums and we are currently looking for people that would be interested.

AROUND THE REGION

Recruitment Contest

Lone Wolves United, The Black Hawks, and Unknown are currently involved in a recruitment contest that will end when one region manages to naturally acquire 250 nations. The old record count of nations within our region before undertaking this feat was 170 nations and at the time of writing this we have over 190. The Black Hawks currently hold the lead with over 200 nations while Unknown is in third with 170.

NationStates Game-play Embassy established

Back by overwhelming popular demand, Lone Wolves United has set up shop in the Game-play sub forum. Finally, a Drunken Bitch Bar in your neighborhood! Come on down, say ‘Hail!’, and have a few drinks and a few laughs with us. Or don't and miss out. You will regret it.
