Hi everyone!

        I think I'll never forget the first time that i went to the sea, just few weeks after I started playing. I'm so sad that I don't have screenshots of this, but try to imagine how it was...

        I was doing a chain quest meeting some node managers around the islands, and then when I tried to use my raft (yes, i went with a raft xD), it got stuck. I thought that i could just reach the next island swimming, but my stamina ran out very quickly and i had to stop in the water for quite some time.

       A big ship appeared next to me with 5 or 6 players and then one of them told me "Hey! Do you need help?". I explained to them what happened to me and then they let me going with them. They told me that they were going to pick up some item for a quest and then we started what it was an epic journey to me: imagine what it felt like discovering the first huge storm in the middle of the sea, discovering for the first time the sea monsters, and the sensation when I finally saw that remote place called "Port Ratt" (and how frustrated I was when I saw that we couldn't explore the area yet xD). 

They told me about picking up the sailing quest there and then they asked me If I had the node managers of the islands near Port Ratt (which i don't, obviously), so they took me to discover them and after that we went back to Velia on an equal epic level journey. 

All I know about them is that they were a Polish guild, and I'm really really thankful because that afternoon it was one of the best in my gaming life.

       After this experience, I felt so motivated that I started to look videos and info about how to make my own Epheria boat, and started to chop trees around Trent and gathering materials with my wife until we both built our boats.

Thank you for reading ;)
