I just saw the world merger notice about an hour ago and it seems Unicorn is being merged with Fenrir. So I'm taking this moment to welcome you guys to Fenrir and I look forward to playing alongside you all.
I truly feel for you guys being shuffled into a new world, but there are a lot of really awesome people over here, and I've been through this same move myself. I began playing on Unicorn in 2003 and moved to Fenrir by choice when ballista died out and I was fortunate enough to keep my original namesake as well as find a few linkshells kind enough to welcome me with open arms. I really got to know the people here on Fenny when I started doing Salvage and it's those strong friendships that kept me here. I'm sure if I was just thrown over to a new world it would have been a lot harder. I still remember how difficult the transition was at first, and I wasn't completely comfortable in my new environment for a few months, but over time it became easier and today it feels just as natural living here as it did when I played on Unicorn. It really just took time.
Since I've been through the same move you guys are about to make I sympathize with you all, but as I said there are a lot of really awesome people here. My move wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I still play in the evenings and on my days off, so once we're merged if you see me around send me a tell. I'll try and do my part to help welcome you guys to our new home.
