Ecclesiastes

Great stuff! I love the micro with the erupting volcano and you can see the similarity from the micro gate compared to the bigger one really well. Also nice touch of the use of light in the throne room and those wall parts worked out nicely!

You should never turn your back towards a Nocturnus woman, they sure are backstabbers... Nice story, I'm curious what's she is looking for in the Mystic Isles!

Great stuff! Just too much nice ideas and details! The pulled boat is really neat, they did that a lot here in The Netherlands before steam ships came! Also the FP is one of the best I have seen and that interior is just outstanding. Furniture, ornamentation and the windows are eye candy! Good thing dG persuaded you to join the guilds!

Splendid work Garmadon, I think you outdid yourself! I really like the men marching and the interior is outstanding. The black walls make it very evil, but preventing it being to dark the flags did the job. Also nice posing of the guys coming trough the windows and clever use of the hat as a plate. Keep it up! "The time has come" Nice interaction!

It didn't look like you were burnt out from the battle, although I can imagine Queenscross needed quite some bricks. The story is really great and I'm wondering were they bodies are. Also nice builds, especially the interior. The walls and floor with the trans clear pieces realy stands out. Also nice to see the new hairpiece used on a judge.

Good to see some of your work again Mikey. I was worried you left Historica. Love the builds with the story and absolutely great minifig posing. The scene I like the most is the one were they celebrate victory. I really like the gypsy feeling it has!

Love the story, probably because it interacts so well with Ondylion and your Elves. Also great builds, the one that really stands out is the building, I assume, based on a stave church can't wait to see the topic for that one! But who's the one next to dG? Is he cheating on Lena?

Of all the builds you've made for our barrage I like this one the most. It's just so well done! Maybe I also like it because I use owl's a lot in my Mitgardia mocs!

I always knew Victor was such a chicken! Indeed most funny story! And good to see you here again! I would like to see more of your interior it looks really nice, but I think I'm not seeing everything in it.

Well deserved blog, I really liked that cavalry! Also great builds and quite some story. I'd better send some men to the border assuming Nocturnus will attack there. And nice touch using names in dutch! Did you also put that in your first post, because it will get easily overlooked here.

The one above the fireplace is a replica of the moon, Zakon dreams of building a rocket when he's drunk.

Absolutely stunning. It's all very good, but I love the throne room the most. That massive window and the throne realy excel. Were does Ragnar's torso come from?

Great stuff Kabel, good to have you on my side! And it's really true, Varlyrians are only interested in Gold. And that ship is indeed the best ship in our Navy, such a beauty, well done!

This house is also a beauty, I like that you've managed to create your own style of houses. Also your rockwork is top notch again!

Don't mess with the birdies! Great story with an surprising ending. And the builds are all wonderfull, as said on flickr the dark blue works so well with white. I also really like your vegetation, the mushrooms and the use of the sand green parts.

Thanks guys! That's exactly what a I was going for!

Thanks guys! The one ISC also uses, it's from one of the space police sets!

Thanks guys! I didn't have it either but ordered it on bricklink.

Great job Mitgardians! Stunning entries from all of you! Remember, there is still time for free builds. We surprised everyone in Historica last week with all the free builds, but I'm pretty sure they are planning payback. Everyday feels like vaction to me. Yes it's over with the reign of Spain, but I'm not sure now which team I like best now.

Agreed, it shows us a overview of links to the mocs already from every person. So adding a bio would be a good idea. As said so many times before:"Amen!!" The entries are all stunning. I think these creations are even better than the annual CCC and those are already outstanding. Excellent job all, feels good to be part of such a devoted group builders with great skills!

No unfortunately not! Well for now I'll be just crossing the border for vacation. My entry is up. Probably have to fix the grammar somewhat, but I'm way to sleepy to fix that now.

Indeed, I'll try to comment on them tomorrow. Probably need the whole evening

Preludes: 1. It is time 2. The Nibelung Towers 3. Encounter 4. In the Dune Sea 5. Raven's Nest 6. Meeting on Water Part one Now Ondylion has fallen, Revolword's forces have reached Valholl. It took much longer than they expected. The resistance prevented them from moving fast towards the capital. Because of their late arrival the city is better prepared and the men are eager to fight the intruders! Valholl Officer:"For Valholl, for Mitgardia, for Historica!" With fire in their eyes, the soldiers went into battle to protect the main gate. It did take some time to fight through Revolword's forces coming from the side gate. One of the Siege towers was almost in position and the evil forces were ready to enter Valholl. Also a ram was already in position so they were just in time. Surprised that Valholl still had such a large army, Rellik and his soldiers tried everything in their power to protect the siege tower and ram... Meanwhile inside of Valholl Jitran arrived with the remaning army of Ondylion using an old tunnel. Jitran:"Hopefully we are still on time. Look at all the debris" Wounded soldier:"Jitran, glad you're here. As you can see, Valholl has been hit heavily a few times. Good thing the walls are strong and the enemy's aim isn't that good." Jitran:"No that's what you get when orcs are using trebuchets... Are you okay, because you look pretty bad?" Wounded Soldier:"I'm fine, can't say that about my friend. When they hit the tower he got a blow to the head, instant kill." Jitran:"May he rest in peace... Do you know were we can find my father? Wounded:"Yes he's in the other tower, with Kaïn!" Jitran:"So they finally got him, let's pay him a visit shall we..." Inside the other tower. Acirhon:"Let's kill him now, he deserves it!" Elon:"No! If Valholl falls we need him as a hostage. Also, he isn't the one who killed my son. Didn't you Kaïn?" Kaïn:"What makes you think I didn't. I hung him like I do with crows. I saw the life leaving his eyes." Elon:"Unfortunately for you Disan saw you hanging him while he was already dead. Just to spread fear among the men and citizens of Ondylion. And you also wouldn't be a match for my son." Kaïn:"What difference does it make, it proves that also a Chorian can be defeated, just as a Nibelung can be defeated!" Elon:"Again, not the truth. Getting his the Jarl's hat you assumed he was dead when you ambushed us. He is now on his way to kill your brother." Kaïn:"What! That can't be. That can't be! Elon:"I already thought you would like all this good news. Acirhon, put him in the dungeon, we need to defend the city now!" At other places people were also busy defending the city. Men were barricading the gatedoors and the women helped by providing food and weapons and also using a bow and arrow when they got the chance. Disan and Gyrin were also in Valholl discussing the current situation. Disan:"Jitran and his men have arrived!" Gyrin:"That is good news, even better is that the evil forces are getting weaker. The archers are holding off the siege towers, while the cavalry is prevented the tower from getting closer to the wall. And the Acirohn were able to disable the trebuchets. Disan:"Those guys with the battery ram are also stopped for now." Gyrin:"Great, this all means we should be able to hold them off untill Steen and Glorfindel will come to our aid to crush this army for good!" Disan:"Indeed. Lets inform Elon, he can use some good news!" Part two Acirhon:"Jarl, most welcome at the Acirhon's Den. The other Guild leaders are already waiting for you." Jarl:"Thanks for the warm welcome, it's good to see another Mitgardian again." The Jarl entered the Den to meet with the others who were already discussing the letters they got. Artorius Rex:"The time has come..." Dextruss:"You've said that several times now." Artorius Rex:"It's because I hoped with all my heart this day would never come." Lord Ssilyrrlith:"I hoped for that too. But one of the three 'Pillars' of Historica has fallen. The king is no more, Revolword is ruling Cedrica now. And if that continues he'll be also ruling Nocturnus or your lands. So we have a duty to our people to succeed in this mission. So are you all in?" Artorius Rex:"Ofcourse, it would be an honour to do this together with all of you." Dextruss just knodded. Rego Amancio:"Let's go to Cedrica than!" Lord Ssilyrrlith:"Ok, good to know we're all in now. We'll just have to wait for Nibelung to arrive. Artorius Rex:"He is in, I assume Elon went to the Order to start this all. So than Nibelung is in for sure! Rego Amancio: "Look he's in the courtyard!" Lord Ssilyrrlith: "That means, we can now go to that monster Revolword!" Part three So the Leaders headed to Cedrica. A dangerous journey facing the Hand of corruption and Elemental Monsters. Despite all the dangers they managed to arrive safely at their destination, a tomb. Not just a tomb. This one was located just beneath the throneroom of Cedrica. In order to keep peace in Historica the ancient kings -together with the guild leaders- build a pillar inside the tomb that's supporting the throne. Peace in Historica would be in danger when one of the guilds would fall or rise against the other guilds, when the people would rise against it's leaders or when the king would fall. So peace in Historica rests on three pillars, the guilds, the people and the king. If the king would fall, the guild leaders would have to remove that pillar with the risk of giving their lives. Inside the throne room Revolword and Rellik, who just came back from Valholl, were arguing about the defeat at Mitgardia's capital. Not knowing they weren't as safe as they thought they were. Also the soldiers who were relaxing in the King's room would soon face death. The high king heard what Rellik said and knew it couldn't be long before the time would come. So he asked one of the guards to lead him to an other room, away from the throneroom... Meanwhile in the Tomb. Dextress:"I wish there was an other way." Lord Ssilyrrlith:"We all do but it has to be done." Rego Amancio:"Do it, push the rock over the edge!" Artorius Rex and the Jarl:"The time has come!" The rock pulled the pillar over so the throneroom collapsed. Sending Rellik and Revolword with his reign into death. The elementals felt that the power that controlled them had been stopped, they instantly fell. Seeing that, Revolword's forces surrendered or fled. The war was over, there was peace again! But did the leaders have enough time to get out of the tomb? And is there prove of Revolword's death? Time will tell!

I actually haven't seen much of it. And I had to work this morning. So in the afternoon I went in town for some beers to celebrate the new king. But after that, building like crazy here. Better shut down the computer, so the forum doesn't get my attention. The nterior is almost done, I'm not so pleased with it as my other two builds, but that's what you get so close to the deadline We also got labor day but no one's off from work here! Better move to Germany!

Same here. I even have to think of a storyline. I'm really bad at that!
