Lately I've been getting more and more bored of Guild Wars, and I thought back to when I was new at the game and the things I did. I remembered fondly of Althea Barradin, and was outraged that she had to die. Now, she is whispering amongst the Mists forgotten. I feel that it is our duty as mesmers, to offer our respect and rememberance for her. She was once the greatest mesmer in the land, who often shined bright of her perseverance and virtue.

I want to arrange an event where mesmers alike can gather and remember the young matron of Ascalon.

If Althea were still alive today, she would teach us that there are always two sides to things, such as illusion and truth, mind and body. For the other side in reference to the ceremony, I believe that we should congregate in a Mesmer festival/party where we can all communicate, drink, dance, and toast to Althea, to electrify the Mists and bring a positive atmosphere. This event would be very entertaining and unique to the world of Tyria. After all, it's fun to have so many mesmers all in one place

Mesmer primaries ONLY! That means no W/Me, N/Me, Mo/Me, E/Me, R/Me whatsoever!

The event will be located @ Serenity Temple International District. The time of the event is still being determined, but I'm shooting for 6:00PM EST (GMT -4) on Saturday night. If you want, you can go to this thread @ gwonline.net and cast your vote to help finalize the time of the event:

To be honest, I'd love to know why she couldn't be resurrected like every other lifeform on the entire continent...

Were Althea and Rurik ever actually married? I know they were engaged... did they squeeze it in right before the searing? Poor unconsummated love.

I though the same about Rurik, not that anyone would want him alive anyway...
And I dont see why only Mesmer Primaries can come, she was an Ascalonian just like all the everyone else. (Well, except the Dwarves, Krytans and Orrions...obviously.) I thought she was great and I was soooo angry when I found out she was dead, so I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to come.

Didn't we help inter her ashes? Or did just reading the title of the quest and following the green arrow betray me again?

There you go, see? RTSFirebat has probably died a million times already and has been resurrected each and every time! What did Althea do exactly? Insult her team's monk once too often or something?

Anyway. I may just stop by just to see what you do.

The Bitch deserved to die she was having it away with half the army in town. Stick a memorial brothel up in her honour and we can have some fun out of it.

Necro's rule and I would rip a minion out her dead soul than go to a memorial service in that Wh*&^ honour

Heck, I have a mesmer I can crash the party with. Sounds like fun. Will there be ale and gratuitous pagan ritual?
