TribunM Posted March 3 (edited) "Be my guest, dear Willem" "Monsieur, we need a bottle of your best wine!" "Santé! To Arnauld de la Tour Forbie, a man whom we both didn't know" "So let me guess: my new brother is an Eslandolian?" "Hmmmm" "So how comes you are not a succesful trader?" "A man whom we both didn't know!" "So your... family structure limited your progress?" "So to say." Let's enjoy the nice ocean view!" "Santé!" "Santé!" "So what have you been doing... for living?" "Travelling, trading. A lot abroad." "But not in..." Louis emphasized his next words with an deep breath, looking at the ocean: "an elevated position?" "A man..." "I always imagined Eslanola was the way you wanted it with faith?" "Well, my family wanted it this way. Not lucky with my mom's adventure." Louis squinted his eyes and looked at Willem: "maybe we can help each other." "How so?" Louis turned to his left where a green apple laid on the table. "What is that on the table?" "An apple most obviously" "A green apple!", Louis replied. "And...?" "It's quite easy: the apple develops like nations: - at the beginning, it is sour and few like it in this state; - then it matures and gets red, a typical apple everybody likes; - some of them fall to the ground where rats guzzle them; - and some of them will be really graded up and find their destiny as a elegant spirit, so to say blue" "There is a lot potential in Oleon and it's colonies, and i want to throw open a lot of doors. Having that kind of brother might benefit you as well..." "An apple may stay green!" "Few people like those!" "Come with me, we may profit from one another. I am heading to a position that might be the first door. Maybe it's first door for you too?" Spoiler Edited March 3 by TribunM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff of Clubs Posted March 4 Ooh. Hittin' the ground running! Very fun build. The trellis does much to sell it lighting wise! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOD Posted March 4 I like the angles from which the Wine Terrace was photographed. Who doesn't know that, as soon as you look at the photos, a Lego brick isn't pushed in properly. An interesting story about the 2 brothers who didn't know anything about each other before and grew up in different countries. I'm excited to see how the story continues.

(…) Must have loosened it when pushing the leafs back into position. Mea culpa. But has some charme too^^ Edited March 4 by TribunM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
