Hard boss is hard — and the Blood Princes are pretty messy to boot. After much effort and many wipes over the course of two hours, we finally downed the Council tonight — and their Queen shortly after. With another wing down, we're now officially 8/12 on heroic and can begin focusing wholeheartedly on working our way towards that dreaded Sindragosa...

An old, mad, blind, despised, and dying king,—
Princes, the dregs of their dull race, who flow
Through public scorn,--mud from a muddy spring,—
Rulers who neither see, nor feel, nor know,
But leech-like to their fainting country cling,
Till they drop, blind in blood, without a blow,—
A people starved and stabbed in the untilled field,—
An army, which liberticide and prey
Makes as a two-edged sword to all who wield,—
Golden and sanguine laws which tempt and slay;
Religion Christless, Godless--a book sealed;
A Senate,--Time's worst statute unrepealed,—
Are graves, from which a glorious Phantom may
Burst, to illumine our tempestous day.
—Percy Shelley

Now that both the server and world first Lich King kills are news come and gone, and even The Hungering Cold have got him on 10-man, I think this is as good a time as any to unveil our new guild motto, as displayed in the banner above. It's undergone some revisions over the course of our raiding career, and the graphic design department has edited it accordingly, but I don't think anyone will notice, do you? *Cough*. Yeah. But no, seriously. We'll get him, we swear. Maybe.

We beat the bloody slime boss!
After a series of agonizing wipes at ca. 1%, the Path put an end to slimy Putricide tonight. Beauty and the Beast were rewarded with nice tonk loot.

It was our second night of Icecrown Citadel normal tonight, facing off once again with Saurfang the Younger, and after a couple of hours of fine-tuning our technique we managed to put the li'l rascal to rest. It did take us a few tries, we'll admit; we certainly didn't make it any easier on ourselves by not bringing a shaman along — but when we finally got it, we got the achievement, too. How's that for not having bloodlust? Screenshots below.

It's the second night of the patch, and already the Luminous Path is making headway — three out of four normal mode bosses down for the count with no major wipefests is certainly something to celebrate. In our first three hours of raiding new content we managed to down Lord Marrowgar, Lady Deathwhisper, and the Alliance Gunship without too much trouble. We even took a crack or two at Little Adama—er, Saurfang the Younger. His demise, alas, will have to wait for our next raid night, but we have no doubt that this thing'll be on farm status long before the next gate opens.
As always, the Screenshots to Prove It:

There's something to be said for a job well done. Despite having progressed past Ulduar many weeks ago, we recently found ourselves back there to finish what we'd started, and introduce ourselves to the likes of Vezax and his pals. Clearing all the way to Yagg-Saron himself last Tuesday, tonight we made a concerted effort to put what was previously theoretical knowledge to the test. After a lot of questionable cloud-dodging and insanity-going, we finally got the bugger, with the screenshot to prove it:

in Horde Strict 10-Man Achievements and Strict 10-Man Progress (16th/17th overall: GuildOx), right behind Brewmasters of Kalimdor and Thirteenth Regiment. Tonight's achievements undoubtedly helped. It's amazing to think how far this guild has come in this raiding season; I look forward to wearing Lich King kill titles alongside all of you in a few weeks' time.

Vindum, vindum
vef darraðar,
þars er vé vaða
vígra manna!
Látum eigi
líf hans farask;
eigu valkyrjur
vals of kosti.
Wind we, wind swiftly
Our warwinning woof.
sword-bearing rovers
To banners rush on,
Mind, maidens, we spare not
One life in the fray!
We corse-choosing sisters
(Brennu-Njáls Saga, Ch. 156)
The beasts, the demon, the champions, the sisters, the spider—we've beaten them all. It's time to start harvesting their loot and attempting the heroic modes. Still looking for a few good healers, though, so click on that forum link and get applying!

Last night the Luminous Path totally erased Sartharion and made a bag out of his body. Congratulations to everyone who participated; a heaping pile of DKP was had by all.

Over two nights in one lockout period, we fought our way to the Four Horsemen, and are preparing a second attack on Thursday. Grats to everyone for a perfect execution of Gothik the Harvester; see you next lockout period!
