My Life In Egypt
I started my life in Egypt alongside my wife (not rl) Kattena. Katt and I began working together on Newbie Island and decided to stick together in Egypt. We worked well as a team and that is what the Tale in the Desert is all about; Teamwork.
So my goals this tale are:
To work more closely with my chosen main guild Paradise Plains.
To level up...achieve the most levels I can with the time I have to spend in game
To build a home with Kattena, seperate to the guild
Last tale I felt a bit lost and well behind in my grasp of the tale and it's objectives. This gives me a forth objective:
To build a better understanding of the way the game flows
My weakness I believe is not taking the time to study the wiki enough. Katt tells me I am too keen to level rather than relax in the game. Perhaps I need to work at that! I see the same weaknesses in the tale as I see in real life! lol :0)
So here are some useful and important links coordinates:
Home sweet home - 2233,2767 (This is actually my cp...I'm hoping to have a proper home outside of PP with Kattena in due course and this will just become my workshop)

Helpful tips for Worship Initiation
I found it useful to do a dry run of the circuit for this principle. On the Paradise Plains Wiki there is a useful guide and map of the circuit. I also made sure that I had landmarked the mine and the Ritual Torch to help finding it easier. However the landmarks are not pinpoint accurate so you may need to use your co'ords to get to the exact spot for the Ritual Torch which is harder to see than the mine.
Another issue is to make sure that both parties understand the procedure. One should take the lead in giving instructions. Then decide who is going to do the incantations and who is going to make the sacrifices. Also, think carefully about the skill you are going to learn and make sure you have a back up if you fail (like we did!). The time is tight on this principle, but it is a lot of fun..my favourite so far!
One other thing I found tricky was copying and pasting the incantations from the wiki without quotes. Therefore, to speed it up I have made a table below to make it easier to copy and paste. I hope you find this useful.
Worship Incantations
Open a separate browser window and copy and paste the following incantations into the Main chat window (no other chat in this window). I have followed the order of the circuit described in the Paradise Plains Wiki page.
Horus | Praise Horus, King of Egypt! |
Bastet | Praise Bastet, who teaches grace and elegance! |
Amun | Praise Amun, who gives us reason to celebrate! |
Isis | Praise Isis, whose seed is forever fertile! |
Thoth | Praise Thoth, the Magician who created Science! |
Osiris | Praise Osiris, who was Reborn like the Scarab! |
Ra | Praise Ra, of the Blazing Eye! |
