Anybody may partake in the competition for Kingship of LotE.

I'll be sure to read those posts ASAP.

If Rophs is elected King of Golemus he will direct the land's resources towards accomplishing this goal. And bump.

I will run against you Grido.

What reason do you have for claiming this authority? Why does Golemus need a King? What can a King provide for Golemus that a Triumvirate will not? Will citizens of Golemus notice any difference? How are you going to ensure that citizens of Golemus don't rebel?

Killing people from the same civilization/faction as you hurts that entity as a whole, so you are quarantined away from those you might kill. A soldier kills people from an opposing civilization to take land or otherwise benefit your civilization.

[23/03/14 03:24] Rophs:Poems are for the Willow. [23/03/14 03:24] Rophs:We tell Stories to the oak. [23/03/14 03:24] Sir Blut:Oh, I know *facepalms* Oak, willow [23/03/14 03:24] Sir Blut:Mixed up the names [23/03/14 03:32] :Sir Blut sits in the grass near the oak [23/03/14 03:33] :Rophs gets up from the stop he has been laying at underneath Awiiya covered in a thick layer of dirt which he doesn't seem to notice and walks over to the Oak which he also sits beside [23/03/14 03:38] Sir Blut:Looks like he's not coming [23/03/14 03:38] :Sir Blut yawns [23/03/14 03:42] Kyphis:I suppose you might as well proceed [23/03/14 03:43] Rophs: *blinks his dirt encrusted eyelids and looks around* Let's begin. [23/03/14 03:43] Rophs:Who shall tell a story first? [23/03/14 03:44] :Sir Blut points his finger at Kyphis [23/03/14 03:45] :Kyphis laughs [23/03/14 03:45] Kyphis:What theme shall we have? [23/03/14 03:46] Rophs:I made Curiose tell a story about you. [23/03/14 03:47] Rophs: *grins* Now it's your turn. [23/03/14 03:47] Kyphis:I know, I read it [23/03/14 03:47] Rophs:Tell a story about Curiose. [23/03/14 03:47] Kyphis:Okay, hmm [23/03/14 03:47] Kyphis:In true Legend Speaker style, the events of this story probably never happened [23/03/14 03:48] :Kyphis clears his throat to buy time to think [23/03/14 03:48] Kyphis:I once knew a yound woman quite well. Her name was Curiose [23/03/14 03:48] Kyphis:She was an interesting character, who had a significant impact on the realm. But that was in her later years [23/03/14 03:49] Kyphis:When I first heard of her she was a very different person to who she became by the end, and indeed who walks around now [23/03/14 03:49] Kyphis:There are a lot of stories about Curiose, as she did a lot in her time and was always getting places unexpected [23/03/14 03:50] Kyphis:As with anyone with a lot of stories about them, there are always stories no one has heard [23/03/14 03:50] Kyphis:Once, Curiose travelled deep into the Tribunal [23/03/14 03:50] Kyphis:Now, we all know the ribunal quite well, even though we may not go there very often [23/03/14 03:51] Kyphis:But curiose is good at getting places no one has ever been [23/03/14 03:52] Kyphis:She found a way to turn left where the road turned right, and ended up in a place none of us have ever been [23/03/14 03:53] Kyphis:Behind the streets we know, she found an entire world none of us have seen. And a darkness lurks [23/03/14 03:53] Kyphis:She fled that day, and after a long run and many false turns she fell back into our familiar MD [23/03/14 03:54] Kyphis:But she learnt a big secret that day, one that she has yet to share with anyone [23/03/14 03:54] :Kyphis smiles evilly [23/03/14 03:54] Kyphis:And that is your story for today [23/03/14 03:55] :Sir Blut is unsure whether to frown or to smile [23/03/14 03:55] Kyphis:In true Legend Speaker style, a true story that never happened. I hope you enjoyed it [23/03/14 03:55] :Sir Blut laughs instead and claps [23/03/14 03:57] Kyphis:Always remeber - there are places in this realm ever Mur does not know of [23/03/14 04:05] :Rophs scratches his chin covered in dirt causing little flakes to chip off [23/03/14 04:06] Rophs:I suppose it's my turn now. [23/03/14 04:06] Rophs:Kyphis what should my story's theme be? [23/03/14 04:06] Kyphis:The colour puce [23/03/14 04:07] :Rophs nods [23/03/14 04:08] Rophs:Every caterpillar dreams of one day becoming a butterfly with beautiful wings. [23/03/14 04:09] Rophs:Beautiful shades of red, blue, green, and may other colors were abundant [23/03/14 04:10] Rophs:One particular caterpillar felt extremely tired one day, and realized he was going to soon enter a cocoon and become a butterfly. [23/03/14 04:12] Rophs:After many months passed he hatched and discovered to his disgrace that his wings were solid puce. [23/03/14 04:17] Rophs:No other butterfly had ever had such an obscure color. [23/03/14 04:18] Rophs:It went into hiding and was never seen again. [23/03/14 04:18] Rophs:The end. [23/03/14 04:18] :Sir Blut chuckles [23/03/14 04:18] :Kyphis laughs [23/03/14 04:18] Rophs:Infact. [23/03/14 04:18] Sir Blut:What shall my story be about? [23/03/14 04:18] Rophs:No other butterfly had even HEARD of such an obscure color. [23/03/14 04:20] Kyphis: (Sir Blut: "2 four 7 two") [23/03/14 04:21] Rophs:Tell a story about dancing. [23/03/14 04:22] Sir Blut: (huh?) [23/03/14 04:22] Sir Blut:Hm alright [23/03/14 04:22] :Sir Blut thinks [23/03/14 04:25] Sir Blut:There was a man named Steve, who's wedding day was coming closer and closer. All of the arrangements were taken care of, and the couple loved eachother very deeply. [23/03/14 04:27] Sir Blut:They never disagreed about a thing, they were perfectly compatible, or so the bride to be thought. You see, she was a dancer, it was something she took quite seriously. [23/03/14 04:28] Sir Blut:But until the impending date was established, neither of them had even thought of dancing with eachother, they had never had a chance, so it was something the bride to be was looking forward to. [23/03/14 04:29] Sir Blut:It was also something that poor Steve dreaded, because he had in fact never learned to dance. Oh, he had tried before, but he just had no rhythm [23/03/14 04:31] Sir Blut:The couple agreed not to see eachother for a month, as it was a tradition in their land, if it was broken then the coupled would have bad luck when they married [23/03/14 04:31] Sir Blut:This gave Steve a month to learn to dance, and he took advantage of it right away [23/03/14 04:33] Sir Blut:He put an ad in his land's forum, for a dance teacher. Of course, he didn't put his real name for fear his fiance would see and find out he didn't know how to dance, which would embarrass him greatly [23/03/14 04:35] Sir Blut:"Heh, now Kate will never know" He thought to himself, as he received a reply to his ad, from a Miss Watson [23/03/14 04:37] Sir Blut:He thought he had it made, when he arrived at Miss Watson's house for his first lesson. The only strange thing was, Miss Watson insisted anonymity, she would not even show her face [23/03/14 04:38] Sir Blut:Instead, she first lectured him about dancing, from behind a curtain. When the time for physical practice came, she only revealed her arms from behind the curtain. [23/03/14 04:39] Sir Blut:Steve practiced dancing for a month, with a woman hidden behind a curtain, never seeing her face nor she his, he was sure. But she was a good dancer and teacher, [23/03/14 04:40] Sir Blut:and Miss Watson taught him what he needed to know how to do to impress Kate [23/03/14 04:42] Sir Blut:With modest prices [23/03/14 04:42] Sir Blut:The day of the wedding, Steve was waiting for Kate's entrance to the building where the service was taking place, eager for them to be married and celebrate in dance. [23/03/14 04:44] Sir Blut:When the King of the land said "If if there is any here who has any reason these two should not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace", some one did have a reason [23/03/14 04:45] Sir Blut:"These two had seen eachother before their wedding day, Steve went to Kate's house every day for the past month!" proclaimed Kate's nosy neighbor [23/03/14 04:46] Sir Blut:And since bad luck upon their marriage was now certain, and both of them shocked, Steve and Kate broke up [23/03/14 04:46] Sir Blut:the end [23/03/14 04:47] Rophs:That's very unfortuante... [23/03/14 04:47] :Kyphis claps [23/03/14 04:47] Sir Blut:sorry was a bit long :P [23/03/14 04:47] Rophs:But atleast they weren't forced to wear puce for the rest of their lives/ [23/03/14 04:48] Sir Blut:This is true *smiles* [23/03/14 04:48] Sir Blut:Maple? [23/03/14 04:49] Kyphis:http://colors.findthebest.com/l/806/Puce [23/03/14 04:49] Rophs: *nods* You two first, I need to grab a log. [23/03/14 04:49] Rophs:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puce [23/03/14 04:50] :Sir Blut nods, stands and walks off towards the maple [23/03/14 04:51] :[Spell] listen to the whisper of the seeds [23/03/14 04:51] Rophs: (Uggh, no popup) [23/03/14 04:51] :[Spell] listen to the whisper of the seeds [/spoiler] Maple: [spoiler] : Sir Blut sets down on a stool and waits : Kyphis sits on a barrel Sir Blut: So today I took a trip to Golemus, then I took a nap next to Bob the tree, spoke briefly with Kyphis and Azkhael at the Marble Dale Park, and then went to the seedwalk : Rophs pulls a stool over to the Maple and sits Rophs: I'm doing a seedwalk. Rophs: It feels strange to walk about after laying still for so long, it almost feels like I've eroded away and been replaced my mud. Rophs: by mud* Kyphis: I wrote as I always do, as Read as I always do. I record, and I speak, as I always have.

[23/02/14 03:19] Rophs:There were too little saplings planted on opposite sides of a river. [23/02/14 03:19] Rophs:On one side was a Cherry blossom, and on the other side was a redwood. [23/02/14 03:20] Rophs:The Redwood over time became deeply infatuated with the Cherry Blossom. [23/02/14 03:21] Rophs:It crooned across the river, wooing its love. Unfortunately, the Cherry Blossom would have nothing of that sort. [23/02/14 03:22] Rophs:Years passed, and the Redwood eventually gave up on the cherry blossom. [23/02/14 03:22] Rophs:Over time the beauty of the Cherry Blossom's spring petals faded, and the redwood grew stronger and taller. [23/02/14 03:23] Rophs:The Redwood outlived the Cherry Blossom by over a hundred years. [23/02/14 03:23] Rophs:Remember that if love doesn't go your way it doesn't mean that you drew the shortest straw.

Rophs: *nods* Someone asked me about it because I've gained a reuptation as the local seeds guru, but I don't know much about that seed. Rophs: *nods* To the Willow?

Yoshi: Could I perhaps say a poem I once said a long time ago? : Rophs nods Yoshi: Alright, if I remember how it even went... : Yoshi clears his throat and nods Yoshi: You are a sign of life. A sign of love and not of strife. Yoshi: You show the way we all should live, how not to take, but instead should give. Yoshi: You show the peace that we should have, how not to scowl, but instead should laugh. Yoshi: You show the joy that we should share, how not to turn, but instead should care. Yoshi: You show the patience that we should show, how not to shrink, but instead should grow. Yoshi: You show the love that we should extend, how not to hate, but instead should befriend. Yoshi: You show how gentle we should be, how not to argue, but instead agree. Yoshi: How not to entangle, but instead let free.
