Your Favorite Year of Wizard101 – David GoldenSword

All good things must come to an end, and today we have our final Blog Contest entry! Thanks everyone for submitting so many lovely posts… it’s a shame we can’t publish them all! We end with David GoldenSword, level 50 Death Wizard, telling us about his favorite year of Wizard101 – 2009.

It’s been 6 years since I first defeated Malistaire’s evil minions during the tutorial at Golem Court and began my journey to stop his sinister plan, I was so young and so inexperienced to the game but luckily I made a friend that day, one that helped me throughout the game, a friend that I will keep and cherish for the rest of my life, Zachary. That is why my favorite year in wizard101 was 2009 when I met my best friend Zachary.

Zachary and I battled our way through the Spiral saving world after world, each one more challenging than the last and brought us one step closer to defeating the evil Malistaire. After our triumphant defeat of Meowiarty and the end of the most frustrating world, Marlybone (which reminds me of home) we ventured off to the next world, Mooshu. This world was stunningly beautiful and its scenery took you back in time to the old Chinese era of monks, samurai’s, emperors and of course ninjas! It was easy to see that the developers at KingsIsle put in some extra time and effort in order to make this world and I am very grateful for that.

After weeks of questing Zachary and I were finally at Malistaire’s door step. The battle was intense and very difficult at the time but we managed to survive and put a stop to Malistaire’s plan once and for all. At first we couldn’t believe that we did it but we did and Zachary and I had saved the Spiral and rid it of evil, for now at least.

I would just like to say happy birthday KingsIsle and thank you for making my favorite game, it is truly something my friend and I love and appreciate. We wish you many more years in the gaming industry and hope you continue to create many more successful games such as Wizard101.
