Silver approached his final Guild's hall. He hadn't been on in almost a whole month due to work, but he called off sick just for today. He owed Yggdrasil that much. With the game coming to an end he could only imagine what he would play now. He heard that a group has already been extracting player info and the world itself. Making a free to play MOD that only requires the original download, which of course they had archived as well. Regardless it wouldn't be close to the real game even if it was true. The amount of legal trouble and even server support the group needed was too much of a task for a bunch of jobless programmers. Regardless, even if he could continue once the game had truly ended, he couldn't. Life was already becoming too busy to play video games and didn't look to let up in the foreseeable future. This probably would be his final game and his final moments in it. He tried to cherish it as much as he could.

As he made his way into the [i]Grand Arce Bellum[/i], Silver observed some of the other people who had came to say their goodbyes. Some were celebrating their time while it lasted, some looked like they didn't care, and others looked sad to see their beloved game end. Silver's face under his Emerald armor was quite neutral. He came to pay gratitude and due to his life being so active he honestly didn't care all that much or at least not as much as he would years ago. His matte Green Armor stood out like many others, but the few who didn't know of him looked in awe at the armor. Most of the population had never seen it, although their was many other extremely rare items that were hidden in the game. Not all of them had been claimed either. Hidden in the World space in unmarked locations. Silver found his by accidentally falling down a large hole and crashing into a Iron casket while exploring.

Ignoring the stares, he came to a statue that was formed in the image of their Emperor, [i]MaxedUltra[/i]. A golden plaque was positioned at the bottom with the words:[i]Mors Inimicos Nostros[/i]. He chuckled a little to himself after reading it. In a mostly PVE Guild they had "Death to our enemies" as their motto. He bit his tongue to not make his laughter apparent and then kneeled down in his typical role playing fashion. Raising his blade to the statue in salute. Offering the Man thanks for the time he had given to the The Empire of Order. Looking at his [url=https://pre00.deviantart.net/e93a/th/pre/f/2017/213/4/1/glass_sword___epee_de_verre___morro_version___tes_by_etrelley-dbihypg.png]Green Sword[/url] he began to voice his thanks out loud. "Thank you Emperor, for the Friends I have made. The battles I have fought. The accomplishments I have achieved. It is all coming to an end, but I for one am thankf-". 

[color=00aeef]"Silver is that you?!"[/color]. A familiar voice had interrupted Silver. While it did bother him for a moment, he quickly recognized the voice. It was the player known as [url=https://static.zerochan.net/Yuusha.%28Dot%29.full.1513923.jpg]M00nG00[/url]. He was a old Friend and fellow Empire PVPer. Well, everyone in the PVP group were friends. It was a smaller section of the guild so at any point they had all fought with or against one another. [color=00a651]"Indeed, it is Brother"[/color] Silver replied in his Boom of a voice before rising from his knees and replacing his sword. [color=00aeef]"Jezz man. Even when the game has just a few hours you keep up that role playing shit. Whatever, it's not like it will matter anytime soon. So Girl, how about we have a friendly duel? Hmm? See if the 'Emerald Knight' still holds up to the legend?"[/color]. Silver stood straight. Staring at the statue for what he assumed was the Final time. "[color=00a651]If you wish to embarrass your self in front of the guild one last time, let us begin!"[/color].

The two met just in front of the Guild Hall. They began to circle each other, weapons at the ready. A mini crowd formed around them to see the battle. Some not even hearing the challenge, but curious never the less.
