A eulogy Aurora Borealis was never a world power. We never achieved or even verged on sanctioned status. Arguably, our prominence as an alliance was in decline from the moment of our birth when we broke away from Monos Archein. The wheels of history never shifted into motion on our word alone. And yet, after more than seven years, we have no regrets as the northern lights fade. We pledged our devotion to “conducting ourselves simply, honestly and honorably on the world stage,” and that’s how we lived. In seven years, Aurora Borealis never abandoned a member in need. We never refused a request for aid from an ally or betrayed one for political convenience. After our first war, we never again fought in a global war with an ally on the other side. I’ve long warned potential allies that treaties with Aurora Borealis always end in death. In the more than six years since the dissolution of our first two treaties (one by force and one by mutual agreement), we have not canceled a treaty or had a treaty canceled on us. I suppose my warning has come to fruition one last time. As I said, Aurora Borealis never called the shots on the global stage. We did, however, do right by our allies and our fair share in their battles. After a long comatose period, we came back strong a few years ago and made a substantive difference in this world as members of AZTEC and Oculus. The wheels of history did not shift by our hand alone, but our hand often joined those of our friends in guiding it into motion. We are proud of what we have accomplished together. In conclusion We are grateful to our past allies, who have preceded us on this final journey. Echelon, Mushroom Kingdom, The Portugal Empire, Nueva Vida, Rubber Ducky Division, Legions of the Eldar, Colossus, Solis, the Federation of Celtic Nations, and the Fellowship of Elite Allied Republics. We are grateful to our last allies, to whom we say farewell. The Grand Lodge of Freemasons, The Dark Templar and Sengoku have been our AZTEC brothers for years. Umbrella, the Orange Defense Network and the Fellowship of The Wolves have been close and loyal allies, as well. More recently, we welcomed the friendships of the Independent Republic of Orange Nations, the New Pacific Order, Non Grata and Viridian Entente as Oculus brethren. We are grateful to the individuals who helped us along the way. There are many, and at this late hour, it is unfortunately impossible to be comprehensive here. In some cases, folks are listed with a previous alliance rather than their current one. Neo Anglia, Solidus117, Death666Angel, Matthew117 and x Tela x of Echelon. Archon, Trace and AirMe of Mushroom Kingdom The many leaders in the Karma coalition who worked behind the scenes to prevent our forced disbandment. We remember your kindness. Farore of The Portugal Empire. Nelchael, magicalbricks, Prince Arutha and raasaa of Nueva Vida. Augusta Antonia of Rubber Ducky Division. OsRavan, Overlord Shinnra, bucovina, Pingu, Zaxon, Salka Palmir, Walling and eZe of the Orange Defense Network. Canik, Dcrews, Lord Boris and ShouAS of the Fellowship of the Wolves.

A special mention of Auctor, who was the most important external figure in helping Aurora Borealis survive to the present day. We appreciate your commitment to our friendship. From Colossus to GLoF to Sengoku, you have always been our truest friend. We are grateful to our seven founders for making a difficult decision to strike out on their own path: Ace072199, DAn123123, Er the Mighty, The Evilest Eye, Thefox, Hickersonia and Welshgazza1992. Several of them remained members to this day, and they all made enormous contributions to our alliance. Finally, we are grateful to the many Aurorians who contributed something of themselves to our shared tapestry. Signed, Drake Spoke, Triumvir Jutopia, Triumvir Sarkin, Triumvir Evilest, Advisor Ace072199, Triumvir

The Aztecs had no choice. Weeks ago, the daughter of the tlàtoāni, was kidnapped by a rivaling city, vastly stronger than the tribes of Masons, Dark Templars, and Northern Lights. They marched on the city, knowing the battle was lost before it started. Their honor demanded it. The battle took place outside of the city, on the day of their arrival. Thousands were killed, and the Aztecs were routed by the forces of the city. The Aztec leaders called for a retreat to avoid the loss of the remainder of their forces. There were no plan they saw that could win the day for their men. A man dressed in all black walked into the tent, having snuck through the camp. They recognized him as the a roaming tribe of masked warriors called samurai. He offered the aid of his tribe, and the Aztecs accepted. Under the cover of night, the city was taken. The masked warriors disguised in the garb of the city guard scaled the walls, dispatching the confused fortress guards. The warriors made their way to the gates of the city. The army lie in wait outside the walls. While the men of the city slept, the Aztecs slipped through the front door with the help of their newfound allies. The Aztecs moved through the city from building to building, slaughtering all the men, imprisoning the women and children. The disguised warriors made their way to the castle in the center of the city. They warned the guards of the assault on the city, drawing them away from the throne room where the tlàtoāni's daughter was held. They slaughtered the king's guard, and seized the tlàtoāni's daughter back. The remainder of the city's guard surrendered and were put into chains with the women and children. The city was put to the torch. The Aztecs and their new allies went back to the temple victorious, bringing with them the tlàtoāni's daughter. The men of the Dark Templar, the Northern Lights, and the Masons gathered to sacrifice those captured, in honor of the samurai and their continued friendship alongside the Gods. The high priest rips out the hearts of all those captured, shouting out, "HEAR ME, and BEHOLD..." "Sengoku shall henceforth be counted as among the Warriors of AZTEC."

A horn sounds from the hills. A band of Aztec warriors fights back to back, surrounded, yet zealously resisting the hordes of screaming warriors howling for blood. Masons fight beside men from the tribe of Northern Lights holding their ground for the sake of their oaths. Blood is spilled as men jab at each other with obsidian blades, splattering across the snarling battlefield. The battle rages and men begin to fall. First one at a time, and each side fills in their ranks and presses on, but then two, then dozens. Bodies clutter the battlefield and the screams of the wounded fill the air. Spears clash against shields and daggers saw through flesh. The Aztecs are on their back foot, but they do not falter as they push back and close ranks. Yet again the sound of a horn rings out over the hills, louder this time. As afternoon wears on, the savage hordes fall back towards the trees, leaving the field to the Aztecs. They huddle together behind their shields to ward off darts and stones. They are weary, but they do not rest. The end is coming and they are ready. They clean their blades and ready their spears and sing warsongs to show they have no fear. Once again a horn sounds, closer now, more urgent. The enemy warriors shout and charge with renewed strength. Northern Lights and Masons fight on grimly, taking enemy lives for each foot they give. They stab, they hack, they shout, and they push back against the forces that seek to overwhelm them. As the sun begins to set, the horn sounding in the distance grows louder and louder. A clamoring is heard in the forests! A long, continuous, cacaphanous band of horns sound and as the sun sets a darkness emanates from them. First one, then two, then a band of Dark Templars charge into the hordes of savage warriors, breaking through to the Aztecs and freeing them from the surrounding enemy bands. Together the Aztecs and the Dark Templars fight, vanquishing their foes and putting them to flight. As the sun is extinguished over the battlefield, the tribe of Northern Lights, the Masons, and the Dark Templars pursue their foes into the woods, destroying them and taking many captives back to the Temple to be sacrificed. When the sun rises the next day, it finds them all marching to the Temple to sacrifice their prisoners to Tezcatlipoca. A high priest rips their hearts out, and stands at the top of the temple looking down upon the three great armies. He cries "Hear me, and BEHOLD...." "This day marks the dawn of a new era for AZTEC. We now recommit ourselves to each other and commit ourselves to a new destiny. A path not taken in opposition to others, one not formed by fear or loathing - one of true brotherhood, loyalty, and sacrifice for the greater good of one another." "The Dark Templar shall henceforth be counted as among the Warriors of AZTEC."
