Atlantis falls into the ocean once again. In 360 B.C, Plato told the story of Atlantis via the work “Timaeus and Critias”. “They created a utopian civilization,” he said. As per the myth, Atlantis was the domain of the god of the oceans, “Poseidon”. Poseidon fell in love with a mortal woman named “Kleito”, who then gave birth to 5 sets of demi-god twin boys, who were the first rulers of Atlantis. The island of Atlantis was divided between the 10 boys, with the eldest, Atlas, being given the title “King of Atlantis”, and granted control of the central hill and surrounding areas of the capital. It was here where the 10 rulers of Atlantis would come to pass judgement upon their people, and of course, to pay tribute to Poseidon. The Atlantean Empire grew much larger and more powerful, reaching as far as Egypt and Central Europe before being driven back by an Athenian led coalition of nations. When Zeus, the king of gods, saw the Atlantean’s acts, he gathered the other gods to decide a suitable punishment. It is stated that the island was beset by earthquakes and floods, causing it to sink deep to the depths of the ocean, never to be seen again. Atlantis was thus dubbed “The Lost Empire”. Until 2019, “The Lost Empire” was just a story told over thousands of years and spreading around the world, but then on 14 September, 2019 two players called “Atlan” and “Sir Oliver'' wrote the first charter of The Lost Empire, and gave it the motto “They said we were lost, Well let us be found”. Since then, TLE has been more than just a story. It has been a community, and without the people of TLE, we would not have made any of the memories in which we have been graced with whilst being a part of this community. All things that are good, must sadly come to an end. Now is the time for Atlantis to sink back into the depths of the ocean, to one day be awoken again. TL;DR: The Lost Empire falls back into the ocean (disbands as of the 4th of November).

Victory in Orbis Day (VO Day)! Almost 1 year ago, on the 20th February 2020 one of the largest events to this date in Orbis happened. The great war named "NPO's Last Time" came to a long overdue close, after being ongoing for 248 days. The lead up to this event happened over 15 days, beginning on the 5th February. Two major events took place on this day, the first of which being the Game Admin, Alex, announcing that the NPO had been in "violation of the Game Rules on Real-World Transactions for In-Game Materials". He goes into length about the events and how he was dealing with them, but we wont bore you. You can read up on that yourself if you want here. The second event was that The $yndicate withdrew from any ongoing peace negotiations. These two aforementioned events were the beginning of "The Roqpocalypse". Over the next week, many Coalition B alliances either disbanded or exited the war under a white peace. Notable alliances that disbanded include the Black Knights (Under LeoTheGreat) and Guardians of the Galaxy. Also within this time period, Knights Templar offered a blanket White Peace to all alliances left in Coalition B. On the 12th February, the NPO head of Training was banned for yet again using another exploit, however this time using tax brackets. As above, you can read up further on this yourself here. In response to this, a large portion of the NPO left with around 70% of their membership deleting on this day. In response to this ban, and the above rule violation accusations, the "NPOwned" stat page was closed down. In celebrating this event, the staff at Royal Orbis News invite all members of the community to a large giveaway, to take place on February 20th. The total prize will be 500M and will be split down accordingly: 7 Names will be drawn using a bot. The first of these names will receive 100M, the second will receive 90M, the third 80M, the fourth, 70M, the fifth 60M and finally, the sixth and seventh will receive 50M each. In addition to this, we will be creating a channel in the server for people to give their favourite moments from the beginning of NPO's Last Time (formerly the Dial Up War) to the present day. We have dubbed this day, the 20th February, to be "Victory in Orbis Day" or "VO Day" for short. This is to celebrate the end of the war, and those who fought in the war. It is also to remind us all of how far the game has come in the past year. We hope that you all decide to come and join us in celebration of this day. TL;DR Royal Orbis News invites you and all alliances to a giveaway to celebrate it being a year since the end of NPOLT Note: This is in alliance affairs due to us inviting ALL players and alliances to join in You can join in the celebrations here: https://discord.gg/nsKQWD7.

I've loved being able to call you a friend, Tarroc. Even through the ups and downs, I've always been able to call you my closest friend within the game. I seriously appreciate everything that you have done for me in the past, and I'll always be by your side in the future. It takes a lot of courage to admit your mistakes from the past, and I highly respect you for bringing them up. Its been an honour serving with you (in tCW) and building a small group of close friends with you. I know that you've enjoyed your time in t$, and I'm happy that you did. Take care and remember to look after yourself and your family; You know how to contact me if you ever need to. I've already spoken to you about this, but I wish you and your family the best of luck and I'll say it again, I am always just a message away.

It was great working with you Atlan, Go ahead and enjoy the much deserved retirement. Here's to Poppa and TLE.

Lets break this down @Marzipan. "People with zero nominations" - Alliances also were (and always have been) allowed to nominate people, this was explained in the first post. The public nominations are not the only way to get nominated, As you can see here, on the first post Adri explained how it works; but I will explain again. "Yet im not on the list." - It was after the nominations that shortlisting happened, to cut it down to 5 people per award (more if there was a tie at the bottom end). Adri also explained this early on within the first post. "being biased" - These awards are not biased. If you took the time out of your day to read up on them, and how they are done this would be clear. Please read this post for more information and hopefully this has cleared things up.

Once Again, Dreamworks SKG Presents..... A Swamp - TCW Production: Back in Duloc: Farquaad had gone on vacation as soon as the enemies started militarizing. During his absence, a war had broken out and the “Princess” that went by the name of “Putmir” took over command of Duloc. She sat on Farquaad’s throne as his minions spoke to her. “Quack has surrendered, Ma’am” Right Honorable said with power, “Yui has received her brand new giraffe and the men are on their way home”. “Perfect” responded the princess. “Get me a messenger for my friend Atlan, from the Swamp, I must talk to him. With haste, Minion!” Haris scuttled away and returned with a messenger, it was Jeric, the Minister of Foreign Affairs for Duloc. The princess spoke, with her cabinet listening closely. “Schedule a meeting with Atlan and tell him to bring his friends to a meeting point in the forest due north, I shall embark with Yui to meet them tomorrow at dawn.” As the princess turned towards Yui, Jeric left the room and headed for the swamp. Yui spoke up - “Shall we get ready then?”. At the Meeting Point: Jeric had organised the meeting point within a secluded forest, away from any possible espionage, or worse; leaks. The Princess poured herself a drink, “Would you like some, Yui?”, Yui shook her head, “Swamp will be here soon! You shouldn’t be drinking!” Suddenly, the silence of the forest was broken by the sound of a carriage. “This must be them” expressed the princess. Atlan emerged from the carriage. Behind him, there were more characters, and they slowly emerged, first Alexio, then Scott, then Kitschie,and finally DarVolt revealed himself, closing the door behind him. Atlan spoke up. “Your highness, I am privileged to finally meet you in person. This meeting was called very suddenly, is everything okay in Duloc?”. “Other than Farquaad going on vacation, all is well. However, I will cut the small-talk and get on with this meeting” Putmir responded. They all gathered around the fire that had been made, and began to talk. After the meeting: They passed around a parchment, each signing it. First the representatives from Duloc, and then the ones from Swamp. Scott, being the last one to sign stood up and cleared his throat, before segueing into reading the parchment. TL;DR The Swamp welcome The Commonwealth into their party

Was fun fighting you all, best of luck on the rebuild

Thats already a guaranteed category though...

This isn't a thread for nominating people, it is a thread for nominating the extra categories

I have a few ideas as to who it could be, but here is my main idea. Vacaid. This makes sense in my head because of a few reasons. The first being that he wanted Sphinx out of office (the masked guy achieved that rather quickly). Vacaid was also a member of Mythic for a brief time, see: 10/31 06:39 pm - BlackBeard removed Vacaid from the alliance Mythic. 10/25 11:51 pm - Universal States Republic applied to join the alliance Mythic. As for why he had a "Sunsteel" blade, I'm not sure, but from looking at things, in my head Vacaid makes the most sense. (Also just want to say, keep up the writing Isjaki, its very good)

Firstly, you have to remember that Sphinx, believe it or not, is in-fact human and does also have a personal life I can assure you that Sphinx has no intention of returning to the game at the current moment. Sphinx left all the discord servers he was in bar 3 (that number is off the top of my head from when he was talking to me when he left) and those servers are all related to his friendships with people outside of PW. He may have re-joined some servers, and I am not entirely sure whether he has or hasn't. Sphinx does still log into discord, but it is for reasons unrelated to PW such as in the screenshot that Leo posted, to play games. People don't just use discord to play PW, they use it for other things. As for what Pheonyx said about messaging him, I would like to rehash that he has zero interest in PW. So if you were to message him, he likely wouldn't respond due to the fact that he wants nothing to do with the game and the community as a whole.

I pledge my sword to the banner of the King in the North, Zygon Stark By the old gods and the new down with the tyranny of the Squeegee with honor, loyalty, and direwolves for all
