I decided to log into my account the day before the reset. I didn't know what was going to be happening, but I was eager to find out. Once I spawned, I made my way to Junon Polis to get my last minute Union Points.

Little did I know that there were some weird things happening in Junon.


I got there and it was almost completely void of vendors. Not that weird, but different to say the least.

I started to walk around and when I turned a corner, BAM! There was a guy with Castle Gear with a Goblin King following him. I followed the guy for some reason. I had never truly seen user-owned Castle Gear. Sure, I'd seen the GMs from time to time, but this was very cool to see.

I followed the guy and he suddenly started dropping zuly like crazy! It was only 1 zuly at a time, but doesn't this make a cool picture?

More people were showing up with Castle Gear. All I knew was I couldn't wait to get to level 70 after the reset.

It was a little sad to know that members wouldn't look like this for a long while. I felt bad for the members who strived to be level 100+ and had their accounts wiped clean.

I started to get a bit bored so I conjured my own entertainment. I built a fort of zuly,threw bullets around like crazy, rode the elevator up and down, all kinds of weird things.

It started to get dark. I knew the time was coming and I sulked about, taking pictures of all the cool-looking characters.

I somehow found myself on Junon Polis' Fly Ship. There was a Naked Party being held and I had to be a part of it. People were throwing out Funky Dance scrolls left and right. The party was really hopping!

We danced until the early morn'. Time was slipping away and the GMs finally came on and told us that we had only thirty minutes until the reset.
User Image

The time was upon us! I told my fellow nude dancers to jump off the back of Junon Polis' Fly Ship; my dream! Unfortunately, only two people jumped with me, but it was fun all the same. Right when I hit the ocean floor, the server was disconnected and the reset began.

I'll remember the good times and make many new memories. At least I can proudly say that I lived through the reset of '05!
(Now it's back to Birth Island!)
