Arowhun recieved a message from [[player:Tenderwolf|Tenderwolf]], who recruited him into his homestead deed named "The Wolf's Den" with an alt, and Arowhun then suicide-ported to his deed. It was a wonderful place on a steppe next to a lake. Tenderwolf was building a farm by flattening a giant hill, and he had a pet greenish dog to keep him company. Arowhun loved the location, but when Tenderwolf logged off, Arowhun was alone. He hated this so much that he suicide-ported back to The Howl to ask for another town. At this point, Arowhun came to the conclusion that for now on, he will make sure he is living around other people. Otherwise, it wouldn't be nearly as fun as it could be.
Arowhun was soon recruited by someone that wanted to found a new town in the East, just west of The Western Wall. Instead of suicide porting this time, Arowhun was boated over across the Inner Sea. He was then led with a group of other new players deep into the woods. He walked past the impressive desert Nation of Grizlam, and hilariously, his group walked right through Gustaberg. It was an amazing experiance for Arowhun to be in the woods when the token was dropped, and to be there as the trees were cut down and the land was flattened. The town of Stonewood Pass is still Arowhun's favorite part of his adventure. He saw the town form from nothing, and the whole process fascinated him. He went out exploring, and he ran into the massive castle of Plunder Hold. He asked his mayor about it, and the mayor said it was built by someone all on his own, and that the person had been there for a very long time (he is still there today, and I'm writing this in 2013). The group aggreed that every villager has one 2x3 house. The mayor hired someone to come and build some of the brick buildings, and this fascinated Arowhun. He thought that maybe he could copy this person's profession, and use the money he earned to get premium. So, when Arowhun's house was finished, he asked for a storage shed, and he made a store sign next to his house that said "Arowhun's Mason Shop". He planned on making bricks in the town's mine, storing them in his house, then carting them to the coast and boating them over to buyers. Arowhun was eager to explore the massive island of Independence (known simply as "Freedom" at this time, because Deliverance and Exodus weren't added yet), and he found a fence ladder to get to the middle ring of Dragon Fang. He jumped off from the top and survived without a scratch (fall damage wasn't added yet). Behind Stonewood Pass was an archery range designed by one of the villagers, and behind that was a vertical rock slope. The instant Arowhun saw the mountain, he wanted to get to the top. More experianced people in the town warned that there could be something terrible on top, like a dragon or kyklops (this person didn't know all the uniques on the island were already Penned or killed). In order to climb up, Arowhun and some of the other villagers climbed up 15 metters, mined inward and created a small cave, and then repeated. They used each cave on the way up to regain their stamina to go up further. Their process of creating this crude ladder was interrupted when their path was blocked by a starving champion brown bear. The creature was very frightening to Arowhun, so he stayed far away from it. One of the villagers shot arrows at it with his longbow, and the bear was lured down. The group ganked up on the bear and killed it. Then they butchered it and shared the meat in a meal of celebration. After a few more days of building the ladder the cliff turned into dirt so they could sadly climb no higher (they didn't realize that they could have built fences). Someone in the town decided that he didn't like the forest, and he wanted to copy Nation of Grizlam and build a desert. This angered Arowhun and a few of the other villagers. Arowhun had to quit the game for a few months, so he never saw what resulted of this dispute. When he returned, he found the town abandoned, with a sign that said "ranoutofmoneyhadtoleave" in the middle of the unfinished desert(the small desert project is still there, and you can see it on the Independence map north of Gustaberg. Stonewood Pass was directly east of that desert, hugging the mountain.).
