My Release 3 Screenshots

So I took a lot of screenshots and would like to post them for your viewing pleasure.
To begin R3, I was tasked to 'ignite' the Lunar Rift, allowing everyone to come visit New Britannia. Fortunately I can shoot lightning through my eyeballs!

Once the rift is open, I head out of Owl's Head before it gets crowded



I decide to visit the new town of Braemar.. and run in to Holt Ironfell, and Fireangel?

Walking into town, I chase down a Watcher!

Then a Watcher begins to chase me!

In Braemar, I got a good look at the 'targeting symbol' which is a rotating border of the combat sigil:

Next I climbed to the top of a roof in Braemar (i did make it all the way up!)

 

After all that climbing I decided to take a rest in a chair on the balcony.

It was time to meet friends in the local watering hole:

Pretty soon a small meeting of friends turned into a synchronized dance party!

After realizing we were all trained by the same ninja master, we used amazing stealth skillz to sneak up on an oblivious ted!

the party moves outside as Smack cheers on, we begin a race around Braemar!

Finally we took a group outing to the local graveyard, after hearing about trouble with the undead.. We searched for woken spirits, but they did not come out to greet us.


Fireangel was deeply overcome with the emotions of this sacred place.

Then an angry mob chases me out of Braemar!

 

I escape the mob by climbing a huge mountain range that leads me into Kingsport!


I climb a guard tower to get a good view of the magnificent port:

I show a few friends some points of interest from the guard tower:


From our vantage point, I notice a huge Houseboat Party! Knowing they wouldn't mind, I join Lady FireLotus & Friends:

Amber Raine joins the party in a stunning red dress:

For entertainment, We pulled together an acapella choir:

 

We sang through to morning!

After so much singing, we decided to relax, and go fishing off the poop deck (the aft)


Of course with Amber Raine there, she couldn't resist singing for us:



Drawn by Amber Raine's melodic voice Holt Ironfell finds us and joins the fun!

Eventually I left the party to visit the other points of interest I noticed from the watch tower. First I visited the Duke's Island Castle, which sported great views of the neighboring lighthouse.

I decided to use my stealth skills to 'get the drop' on the Duke who owns this fine joint:

 

When he didn't show up, I decided to visit the lighthouse for more spectacular views:




Me as an Olympic Torch lighter! -*Reenactment, characters and events do not necessarily reflect real people and events*

Mishri shows up, no doubt looking for the warmth of the fire.. and waldo flies through the sky in the background

Mishri and I keep watch, while Pyro and Smack tend the fire:

Finally I come back to Owl's Head, and check out the view from a village tower home:

Then I head into FireLotus's Tavern, where I take my favorite spot in the rafters:

 

I hear that the town horse is missing and so I go looking for it.. Aha! How did you get up here??


After hearing of my rooftop escapades in Braemar, Smack and Pyro decide I'm ready to join them in some Owl's Head Parkour!



Through my newly discovered talent, I enjoy some amazing rooftop views:




And then I see I have company! Royou!

 

I suddenly felt drawn to the Defense Tower! I Must Climb it!





Finally I enjoy a peaceful night:

Thanks for listening to my story. I hope you had a great R3!

 

Very atmospheric pictures. Like them.

 

Thanks for the visuals and the story!

 

Great pics! Thanks for sharing your "travelogue" in the Hidden Vale!

 

Well done Miracle Dragon! Great photography as well I was particularly fond of the shadow cast on the ground shot and the framing with the leaves

 

Oh look its my char, with a pair of boots and boxers... lol

 

Well done! It was nice to travel with the group that night.

 

These are great! Thank you for sharing!

 

oops - I didn't mean to hijack a personal Thread - I meant to put mine over here:
OFFICIAL R3 Group Challenge

...sometimes, I am really distracted...

 

Release was extended longer than expected, so I have a couple more to share!
Here's a slideshow of the final NewBritannian Sunset of Release 3.

 

Riya says, "It is a boat party, we are in our swimsuits!" (much to Violation's dismay)


Violation says, "LoL, I'm in cloth, very poofy cloth! It's water resistant and will double as a raft! ^.^"



During the extended farewell, Leinad Laurelwreath puts on a dress at the docks, saying, "no pics now please..." <--yeah, okay Leinad.. ;-)



To be fair, here's me on the docks!



So long my friends! Thanks again for a fun-filled R3! I just wanted to end this on a 'high' note:



-Miracle/Iazon

 

Thank you Lady FireLotus!

Be sure to checkout the additional pictures on this thread as they come in, I posted a few more from the final hours of yesterday's prolonged 'farewell to R3'.

 

Wow thanks guys for that, Loved the pic's

 

Love the storytelling to accompany the pics, makes it so much more interesting than a group of pics by themselves

Excellent Travelogues, @Miracle & @Fireangel Glad to be a part of it.
