Everquest is due to celebrate its 12th anniversary in the next couple of days, with the return of all the usual events there. I’ll be covering that in a post once it actually starts, but in the EQ site post foreshadowing it, I also saw this rather interesting bit of news:
Grand events are afoot in EverQuest II starting later this month, where mysterious apparitions have been sighted! Portals through time have been appearing around Norrath, linking this age to an age before the Shattering. Journey through these portals to find the ancient heroes and villains of an age gone by. Reminisce about them. Then kill them and loot them for the really cool items they possess. There may be a connection between them; perhaps you should investigate them all…
Oho! The event is spilling over into EQ2. We’ve not seen any mention of it on the EQ2 site as yet, but it sounds rather intriguing. Perhaps Maltheas will finally get to meet his hero, the original Fippy Darkpaw! Who else might we meet? Suggestions in the comments, please!!!
