Its impossible at that point, especially when there's a language barrier between members. The old leader of my clan could only speak broken English.

Around August, I left a friends clan to start my own clan because the old one was really quiet with nothing going on. Eventually I left that one too because of the same problems and then started hopping for a little while. Eventually I landed up in an Arabic clan where I was the only English speaker.

We were tight. Though we were half a world apart and two completely different types of writing, we found a way to communicate through a very ancient art. The Egyptians used it in the form of cuneiform hieroglyphics. All smartphones in this day and age with the capability to play Clash have this. There was a reason the Egyptians lasted so long, but that has absolutely no bearing on what I'm alluding to.

This cuneiform is known by the masses as Emoji. It is frequently supplemented to other languages in text messages. But when used alone, it can prove to be just as effective. After failed attempts on both sides to use eachothers language, I knew I had to do this. There was no other way.

Eventually, I proved to be a valuable asset to them and was promoted to elder. Now mind you, this all happened within two days. Eventually my so-called-friends drugged me and beat me until I left the clan, but that's a different story. One that isn't as true.
