Notice the huge amount of people from the HKO Founders and Sailoria guilds.  Of course, I made sure I got to the middle as early as possible.

It was a great run while it lasted.  Just one week ago, I was a lowly level 1 that had to struggle to survive.  But the people have been nice.  I managed to go through many of the quests while not being aligned with a guild.

Once the charity event started, I had to join a guild.  And so I did.  I joined the Tiger Melody guild.  While not the most active guild in HKO, the people that were around were fun to talk to.

Ultimately, I ended up having an in-game marriage to an incredible girl!  Actually… it’s an NPC I married and her name is Melody.  Still, it happened to be THE wedding to go to.

Thing is, not that many people showed up outside of the guild members.  But who just happened to show up?

It so happens that a bacon-flavored GM decides to show up. However, that’s not the only one to witness the wedding.  It turned out that a total of FOUR GMs showed up.  I was worried that I would be in a massive amount of trouble for marrying an NPC.

But in truth, they wanted to witness history in the making, at least on HKO.  I can’t seem to recall any NPC/Player marriages on MMORPGs.  Then again, I’m not much of a MMOer.

Afterwards, everyone decides to line up in a row.  I’m guessing the other people have been taking pictures and stuff.

However, the GMs decides to have a surprise for us.  However, an even bigger surprise took place.  It was the sudden disconnection of my internet.  My modem stinks, I know…

But I got back on and guess who decided to show up next!

Now, I was hoping for the vows and stuff to happen.  You know, like in any other wedding.  Well, I suppose you can’t have an NPC say “I do.”  Melody only says “Welcome to Paris!!”

So tigerlyly pronounces Melody and I to be married and stuff.  And then there’s the kissing of the bride.  The best I was able to do if right-click on her.  The text box blocked the actual kiss, or at least a close approximation of a kiss.

Afterwards, I got various gifts from the Tiger Melody members.  The most notable gift happened to be Snowman seeds, which probably came from one of those Founder’s Beta events.  CalypsoCafe gets the dunce hat for giving me wolf skin.

So what happened to the other people that didn’t show up to the wedding of the year thus far?  They were hanging out in London causing a ruckus I bet.  That would explain why the GMs had to leave early.

Still, I want to thank the GMs for taking the time to witness something that I was crazy enough to do.  This will go down in history!  If it doesn’t… well at least this is something that those who’ve seen it as it was happening will not forget it anytime soon.
