Congratulations to Lady Nayana and Alice Darkbane!

[Captain Del]

Tonight was a very special evening in Partners N Crime, as guild history was once again made this very night!

It all begin in a dark enclave, deep in the recesses of the Lava Gorge beneath Padres' sweltering volcano. Guildmaster Delmaria Darkskull summoned the partners in crime this evening to reflect back on the past year, and there they all stood in a ceremonial circle, giving testimonies and reflections on all that had happened the past year. It seemed like another ordinary story time for the partners, until something odd happened...

Throughout the night, Delmaria had been bugging Nayana and Kyle to get online at the same time for some reason, though never exactly giving a clear reason why. He left them under the impression they were needed to take a few screen shots... but, this was not the case!

During the meeting, Darkskull stepped in to the center of the circle, and spoke about the current times in the guild; it had been a turbulent year for the partners staff-wise, as positions and ranks changed back and forth in the blink of an eye. One of the most important and tight positions Delmaria had recently fallen in, however, was the lack of a group of Co-Guildmasters constantly at his side, with only the vigilant Liz McMorgan actively at his side.



For the past few months I have been debating as to what I should do. Making a decision as to who should be a Co-Guildmaster is not easy, after all - with such a staff that is so highly looked upon, promoting a pirate to the highest tier of the grandest summit is a daunting task to do correctly. This past few weeks and months have been filled with inner debate and fueding that had eventually led me to a final conclusion, and that was what unfolded tonight.

In front of the guild, I decided it was the appropiate moment this night before the final day of the year, to usher in a new era of guild leadership:



Watched by their peers, I administered the oath and speech, as well as the Ritual of Arms, as I call it...





And just like that, Lady Nayana and Alice Darkbane became PNC's two newest Co-Guildmasters!



From the bottom of my heart, I cannot express the pride and happiness I feel in both of you. I have watched you over these past few years grow and develop in to not only outstanding, respectable pirates, but a part of the guild's identity as a whole. You both for, for a long time, become the face of a generation of pirates completely grown under the era and time of PNC, and you standing beside me today at the top of the guild is not only a testament to how far you both have come, but how far we all have come.

The work and effort you both have put in to this guild is some of the finest I have seen in my time in the Caribbean. It goes without saying you both dedicate an unhealthy amount of time to the guild, but that is one of the many things I love about both of you - your drive to help the guild, and the force you put in to each and every stroke while doing so. This is a promotion that I know, in all parts of my heart and mind, was both sound, and deserved.

Lady Nayana, Alice Darkbane, congratulations on becoming PNC's newest Co-Guildmasters. You will make me proud, I know it
