Stonehand sent the following report to TMN:

On the 14th day of Summer, 581 Stonehand, seen here tampering with forces beyond his ken, got one step closer his goal of gaining the evil powers of the Darshak Liche. In an effort that started in what those who still use the old calendar call October 2009, Stonehand has learned to befriend the Darshak Liche. No word yet on whether he can begin on morph, but it is unlikely that his training is sufficient at the moment.

Stonehand is quoted as saying that he seeks the power of the liche for "Totally not evil and nefarious purposes" and that he is "in no way determined to gain power and eternal life, no matter the costs".

It is likely that this morph will be his stepping stone on to greater, more powerful, things. The liche's extremely high balthus will allow Stonehand to brick much more readily and allow him to solo creatures he needs to study for future morphs.

Truly this is a great day for Stonehand. We all wish him well in his future rangering endeavors.
