The only 66 color that i can use to discribe Dimlite's house is a Gray Poupon, 67 fashonable for the era. He was a very tall man about 5'6" and the only 68 hair i saw on him was on the very tip of his snout. It looked as though 69 in actuality his personnel hygine had been dicarded let alone abandoned. 70 he claimed to have been a sandwhich maker[journeymen] for years and 71 we discussed the posibilites of Dimlite moving a few more feet away 72 from me so i would'nt be so offended by his odor, he agreed. 73 Dimlite offered a sandwhich to me, I declined, but was served anayway 74 promptly throwing small pices of mystery meat under the table to the 75 canine which he posessed.

A wet, 234 clinging cold that totally surrounded me, penetrating to the bone and 235 causing them to ache. 236 The second sensation I felt was... pressure. My lungs seemed filled with 237 the air I had somehow gulped before landing into the river, but I knew that 238 it wouldn't last much longer. I struggled to reach the surface of the 239 river, where ripples played about the rocks and water plants several feet 240 above me. 241 I felt myself being held down by some force, intangible but very real, 242 pressing me away from the life-giving air above. I heard a mental 243 voice- #WHAT ARE YOU?# 244 I tried to answer. #...I am Milchar, a human from Celene....please release 245 me, I need the air above...# 246 The Being responded instantly, but during that instant I felt myself get 247 weaker and the pain in my lungs increased. #NOT RELEVANT. WHAT ARE YOU?# 248 Concentration had grown exponentially harder. #...a magician, a worker 249 of magic....# 250 The voice became slightly more powerful, cutting through the rising barrier 251 of pain my body built about my mind. #NOT RELEVANT. WHAT IS YOUR BEING?# 252 Fighting for every last bit of energy I could muster, I tried to answer- 253 #....uugh...release.....me........# 254 The next few moments were unlike anything I had ever experienced before or 255 since, and not something I can easily relate. Yet I shall try. My memories 256 forced themselves upon me, parading past rapidly, forcing the truth of my 257 past actions painfully into my mind, showing me THIS or THAT action which 258 was selfish, THIS action was wrong, THAT one was ill-considered... I reviewed 259 all of the minor evils I had committed during my life. The pain in my lungs 260 dimmed compared to the pain this recollection stirred within me. 261 Yet not all of the actions I reviewed then were the bad ones- I saw also 262 the great joy I had somehow managed to produce in others from time to time, 263 the generous deeds accomplished... but somehow, the good actions seemed 264 fewer than the bad. Or else the bad stuck in my mind more firmly. It's 265 impossible to tell- but I hoped, just then, that the good outweighed the 266 evil I had done during my trek in this multiverse. 267 Abruptly, I felt myself rising quickly but gently. I broke surface an 268 instant later, gasping for air and fighting exhaustion. Exhaustion won. 269 I awoke upon the near riverbank, betwixt a bed of flowers and a large 270 patch of willows, upon a narrow, sandy area. I laid there for many minutes 271 before I felt well enough to consider what had happened to me. I tried to 272 puzzle it out for a bit, then, after more minutes, tried to sit up. 273 I was dizzy, but nothing appeared broken. My injuries seemed limited to 274 bruises, of which I had an abundance. 275 My posessions for the most part had survived the ordeal, also. I saw 276 quicly that my wand was gone; I would probably never see it again. 277 Having determined that I could get about if need be, I rose. As I did, I 278 saw something that startled me so much I very nearly fell down again. 279 On my palm was inscribed a small silver pattern, almost like a tatto, which 280 faded even as I saw it. Somehow I knew it remained, but knew not what it 281 signified. 282 I wasn't about to find out just standing there, though. 283 So I walked. Rivers tend to be centers of civilization, at all levels: 284 when primitive, cities enjoy the easy water transport; when advanced, 285 the people enjoy the natural beauty associated with water bodies. So, in 286 hope of finding a suitable place to rest before attempting further magic, 287 I walked downstream. 288 +++++++++++++++++++++ Milchar +++++++ March 18, 1987 at 12:45am ++++++++++++++ 289 ____03/18/87__________________JD 2446873.7226_________21:20:32_PST_________ 290 O\=<([V2V])>=/O 291 .-.-.-.15 hours.-.-.-.-.-.Milchar, will you be there?.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.Emu 292 .-.-.-.8.5 hours.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.Emu 293 .-.-.-.1 hour.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.Emu 294 ____03/19/87__________________JD 2446874.6259_________19:01:24_PST_________ 295 ++++++++ Emu, I'm not 100% sure of what you're counting down.

It was probably what caused 315 me to wake up. I felt sore in all of my joints. I had been laying 316 there for far too long, things were starting to stiffen up. 317 Soon my eyes adjusted and I looked around me. I was sitting under 318 a tree in a meadow. How I got here I'm not too sure. As I looked 319 further I saw the outlines of what appeared to be the glowing 320 outlines of a door off to one side. Hmmm, interesting. I thought 321 about getting up, but my soreness and the warming sun inhibited 322 me from making a quick decision. There was time enough for 323 exploration I was sure. The presence in my mind was quiet, no 324 word, no response. I wasn't even sure if he was even there for 325 sure (assuming that you could even assign a sexual quality as he 326 or she to such a being). Finally with some degree of effort I got 327 up and stretched the worst of the kinks out of my bones. My first 328 order of business was to take a look at the glowing lines of the 329 assumed doorway. As I approached it the lines began to glow even 330 more. It was almost as if they were bulging outward attempting to 331 engulf me. To carry me off to yet another time and place. Another 332 world where I did not know where I was. But I liked the flavor of 333 this particular meadow as it currently was, so I backed away a 334 bit, avoiding the clutching sucking feeling the door emitted. Off 335 to the side was a little stream chuckling to itself and enjoying 336 the warmth of the sunlight. Knealing down on its bank I took my 337 fill the wonderfully sweet water that traveled in its course. 338 This seamed like such a wonderfully peaceful land, so unlike the 339 noisey rabble I had left behind. I didn't really want to leave. 340 And yet deep within there was something missing, an empty space 341 filled with a longing undescribable. The emptyness within me once 342 its existance had been found swelled and expanded outside, 343 filling the world, the once bright warm sun dimmed and gray 344 clouds quickly filled the sky. Suddenly I felt cold and alone. 345 The streaked gray clouds began to emit a cold wind swept drizzle 346 that soon had me wet and shivering. The tree I had been sleeping 347 under offered no protection, the leaves that had once offered 348 cool shade against the warmth of the sun were now gone. The stark 349 bare limbs reached menicingly towards the gray clouds as if to 350 draw them closer and capture them in its grasp. A flash of 351 lightening broke the gloom. I was alone in this world no friends 352 to great, no one to talk to, no one to share the warm of a fire 353 and ward off the chill of this place. The colour was gone, only 354 varying shades of gray were visible now. The stark cold 355 lonelyness began to sink in until it became an overwhelming 356 thought driving out all others. I began to shake uncontrolled. 357 Was it the cold, or was it the emotional distress I felt. I had 358 to do something, I had to find a way out. The door! Quickly I got 359 up out of the crouching position I had taken beneath the tree and 360 looked across the now gloom filled clearing. There, through the 361 mist I could see something glowing. Beckoning me towards it, 362 Gathering my remaining emotional and physical strength I headed 363 towards it. I only hoped that it would lead me out of this barren 364 land to someplace more inviting. As I appraoched the glowing 365 edges reached out through the mist drawing me closer inviting me 366 into its grasp with what almost seemed like a self-rightous 367 smugness. I paused for a moment in fear at the feelings I felt 368 coming from it, but the cold and emptyness of this place gave me 369 enough reason to continue on. Releasing all further doubt, I 370 accepted what this new and unexpected twist would bring and 371 stepped through. The darkness enclosed me in its arms, wrapping 372 me in a blanket of warmth. My clothes were no longer wet, and my 373 shivering subsided. Where I was I did not know, I didn't know if 374 I was even anywhere. I felt like I was in limbo, stuck between 375 one reality and another. I was no longer cold, but the empty 376 feeling of lonelyness was still there. The warm enclosing arms of 377 whereever I was could not dispell that feeling deep in my gut. I 378 thrashed out, I screamed. No one came, no one heard. Was it only 379 a second that I lay thus or was it a century? It seemd like it 380 was forever. I felt a feeling feeling of concern and frustration 381 surround me. An unseen force wanting to help but not knowing how. 382 I thought back to times past, to a friend gone and yet always 383 there. Slowly the emptyness subsided, and as the feeling went so 384 did my thrashings and emotional outpourings. The darkness around 385 me felt pleased. Some sort of balance had been achieved. Finally 386 I drifted off into a fitful sleep in the dark confines of 387 whereever I was. 388 ###################### The Innkeeper ############################ 389 O\=<([V2V])>=/O 390 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ (somebody else) 391 Prometheus: I have been searching high and low for that infamous chapter 392 of the tale "The Young Master West" entitled "The Striking Blow". 393 It was the snippet I had originally scrawled onto a tattered 394 leaf of paper, it was the original copy of the text.

I thought you had been taken away by destriers and held 524 captive in their castle keep. It is good to know that you are free again and 525 again able to communicate. I tried to call you several times, but these 526 modern appliances left nothing to the imagination - No phone and you don't 527 exist. I have a few things of your. Musical in nature, pleasant to listen 528 to, enjoyable to ponder. They can be returned if you wish, I have had my 529 enlightenment. Please write some more, your past is well remembered by the 530 keepers of the archives, and we would all like to make some more memories. 531 Guardian: Another long lost soul, returning, if even for a brief moment, to 532 the fold. Months have passed since you last graced this place. I remember 533 so well the stories we told around the Inn's warm and crackling fire. The 534 tales we spun, some true, others wishing they were. If our pasts guide our 535 futures, then our store will never be bare. Friend, adventurer, Inngoer of 536 reknown, welcome home. 537 Emu: The countdown is now done. Finished last Thursday at 4:30pm. It is 538 strange how we journey long to reach a single point. At the start of our 539 journey, the point is barely visible. It is more of an idea than an actual 540 state of physical being. We move on, and with time and trouble, the point 541 gains definition. We begin to see outlines, then details. We know, looking 542 back midway through our travel, that the point is obtainable, is tangible, 543 and more than some lofty idea or unobtainable goal. It is real, and it can 544 be ours. We move onward, and as the time of reaching becomes close, the 545 journey drags. It feels like the beginning, so many years ago. Suddenly, 546 and without any warning, time flies in the winds of change, and the point 547 charges towards us. The countdowns, the last minute preparations. The 548 memory of what went before. The wonder of what will come after. The point 549 is so close, so large, and then.... It is upon us. We are one with that 550 point, the point is no longer a separate entity. The walk down the aisle. 551 The speeches. The awards. The handshake. The applause. The accolades of 552 fellows and friends. All make the journey worth it. They make the journey, 553 and the memory of it, part of the prize. 554 555 Congratulations Emu, Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science. 556 557 )_*%#_@%_)@*%_)*_)@*%@#_(*_)~#*_!~$* L'homme sans Parity *%#@*%@_#)_)$*_#)$*@~%* 558 559 PHONETIC ENGINUITY - SPEECH PEOPLE UP IN ARMS OVER COMPUTER CONTROLLED VOICE 560 BOXES IN CONTROL OF UNSTABLE CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS STORED IN AT-THE-TIME SAFE 561 CONTAINERS AT SPECIAL GOVERNMENT RESERVATIONS FOR THE CONTROL OF COMMUNIST 562 REACTIONARY REVOLUTION IN THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES THAT HAVE MARXIST LEANINGS 563 BUT REFUSE A TOTAL SOVIET PENETRATION INTO THEIR ECO-SOCIO PATTERNS OF MIDDLE 564 CLASS LIVING ARRANGEMENTS BASED ON ECONOMIC STANDING AND POLITICAL LEANINGS. 565 ________________________________++++++++_____________________________________ 566 huh? 567 ____03/25/87__________Leonard_JD 2446880.6558_________19:44:21_PST_________ 568 569 570 break 571 +++ 572 Emu: I hope you have a better time of landing a good job than I have. 573 +++ 574 Somehow, that brief comment seems to destroy the entire meaning of 575 L'homme's entry.
