Oh, We Are the Busiest of Bees

There's things that impress me in this world. One of those things is how marshmallows can't be singly eaten. Another is the human spirit.

Third is our raid team. 

Our Yogg-Saron defeat came in no more than a couple raiding days, and schoolgirls everywhere sighed in relief. Our victory relied heavily on ancient Ulduar secrets such as "PRESS TEH BUTTAN HARDUR" and "healers staying alive." When it was all said and done, we felt a little wilder, a little more insane. (Well, except Nellenya, she's already titularly Insane.)

 

Again, another boss that's impossible to get at a good angle. (06/22/09)

 
It's crazy to me that this last boss is palpably a new beginning to the instance, one of hardmodes and one hour spawn bosses that could decide the fate of our universe. So while Yogg Saron's door has closed, a window opened... uh...somewhere. I've never been good with stuff like this.  Either way, we were not content to just rest on our laurels and get drunk like other guilds after a finishing boss kill. What did we do? We partied with some iron dwarves and did Iron Council medium-mode:

One of the awesome things about doing I Choose You, Molgeim and Steelbreaker is you get these neat data disks that outlay the hard-mode unlocking of Algagon instructions.
Sadly, Deodan got the data disk and therefore, being a man, we will never actually ask for these directions.


Yogg-Saron being defeated means that now we here at Fordragon's Reprise are looking towards hard-modes. Good thing there's so MANY of them! Much in the spirit of our aggressive train-wreckers, we demolished Flame Leviathan with two towers:

 

 
And our first real hard-mode ever, XT-002 (Heartbreaker):
 
 
Progress is strong, we have 8 [Fragment of Val\'anyr] towards Gradar's Mallet of E-Peen and the horizon looks bright.
 
 
 
(BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!)
