It's time to play the Alphabet Game. Now you're saying to yourself how do you play the Alphabet Game? The Alphabet Game is very simple to play and yet can challenge you at the same time. The rules of the game are very simple.
All you do is post a word. Sounds easy enough right? Your word, however, must begin with the last letter of the word posted above yours. You can use the names of places, people, guild members with names not containing spaces; numbers; or symbols, and items on Gaia with a single word name. Words can be however long you want them to be and you can whip out the old dictionary if you wish in order to really challenge people. The idea is to break out the vocabulary and have a bit of fun with each other. If you wish to chat while throwing out your words do please put your asides in parentheses to keep it separate from your contributed word for the game. Have fun and watch out for those dreaded Es.
To get things started off I'll toss out an easy one to get the ball rolling.

(Behold the dreaded E has emerged. You will come to learn the E can be hard for people to come up with a word on the fly and dread it. And here's the wiki on that word)
lol figured since this is a Gaia guild, we should have at least some gardening know-how
The tiny, microscopic worms get into the leaf, stem and root tissue of plants and feed in the sap, the plants often taking on a swollen or ‘bloated’ look, especially bulbous plants. Affected plants fail to flower, crop poorly and should be lifted and destroyed. Eelworms often spread virus diseases.
Someone — I quote and add caps as I see fit — 'who has AN OBSESSIVE DESIRE for POWER' or 'suffers DELUSIONS of their own power or importance'. The adjective, says Oxford smugly, is 'Exhibiting megalomania'.
