Lady Sirse recently traveled to the recent Fanguard event, the debut "official" fan event for the soon-to-be-released fantasy MMORPG Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. TenTonHammer Vanguard staffer Lady Sirse was on-hand for Fanguard, and she shares her first Fanguard impressions, featured on the TenTonHammer Vanguard: Saga of Heroes community site.

Walking into a room filled with a hundred or so Vanguard: Saga of Heroes fans is bound to bring a smile to anyone's face. The look of barely contained excitement and hopeful anticipation is too clear to miss. What can always surprise me though, are the welcoming words and the friendly smiles that go with it. From the moment I checked into the hotel Friday until the time I left Sunday morning there was something in the air that spoke of community.
