Line 53:
Following the end of the Classic era, the Commonwealth did not pursue territory on any of the Civ servers which led up to CivMC. Discussions occurred on the topic of a revival on CivMC weeks before launch on May 26th 2022, but nothing definitive was planned. Less than a week before launch, reffelruz made an announcement and attempted to rally CWers for the revival. The response was mostly surprise, and most of the active players from the Classic era were already dedicated to new groups. reffelruz deleted the post, discouraged by the mostly negative response. Then the server was delayed, and he made a second announcement, having been encouraged to take advantage of the delay by former-CWer specificlanguage. The CWers that remained active but did not join other groups signed up for the revival.
On June 2nd, reffelruz set out into the newly launched map to search for a good location to claim in the name of the King. Having no contact with anyone out in the wilderness for days, reffelruz became weary from his travels, lonesome and a bit discouraged. He came across a large rock at the head of two rivers, forming a perfect cross at the base of the rock. reffelruz saw the landmark as having great symbolic significance, as the name Peter means "rock", and the story of the King contains - as reffelruz interprets in the DOTEK - numerous connections and parallels to Jesus Christ, who was killed on a cross, in a way that parallels what happened to Peter in the Classic era. reffelruz saw this
There he met [[Bgbba]], chieftain of [[Yoahtl]], who informed reffelruz that the nation planned to settle in the area; saddened, but ultimately glad that the King's Cross would fall into the hands of a former ally, reffelruz would continue on his search after telling the chieftain to take good care of the spot, as it was very special. [[Bgbba]] also believed that the spot was very special, though no specific reason was specified for his belief.
