Ecclesiastes

Bring it on!

Obviously, this did come as a blizzard really does. Unexpected and with force! But it was all about the fun of building and showing some Mitgardian Muscle! And yes most of our builds won't get that much attention, but that doesn't matter because the planning and building was allready fun . And that's what it's all about. But ofcourse also a tiny bit of competion, so yes they count as free-builds. But compared to challenge entries, free builds don't get that many points. So after all I think this will help our overall scoring, but it won't get us at the top that instantly About freebuilding/deadline:

You should be off till monday!

If the deadline for freebuilds would be the same as the deadline for challenge 6 their wouldn't really be a motivation for most of us to build the following months. So keep the free builds coming and shows us what you got. We just showed some Mitgardian muscle. Plenty of time for the other guilds to strike back!

I know the feeling! It's freezing!! And winter isn't over yet! Soccerkid, I'll leave the weather forecast up to you!

(Note: Not that pleased with many photo's, the weather wasn't really my friend yesterday!) Disan:"Kaïn you're surrounded. Your men are dead, you haven't got any change of escaping this time!" Soldiers voice from inside:"Not all the men are dead, dare to enter and you'll die!" Disan:"I'll make sure you're the one who dies first when 'we set foot inside the drunken pony. Soldier:"Bilhan couldn't kill Kaïn so do you really think you have a chance defeting or capturing him yourself. Flee now you still have the chance." Disan:"At Ondylion he had thousends of soldiers. Right know he is the one who's outnumbered. That's what you get when you just want to spend your days drinking ale and eat. He's probably to stuffed to fight and as it seems to afraid to talk to me. Soldier:"Leave!" Disan:"Someones getting angry! But enough chatting, let's cut you open! Attack!"

Rego Amancio:"You see my friends since Revolworld has gained control over Cedrica I can't trust many people anymore. So too garantee my safety I only agree to meet people on water. Less chance to get cornered." Messenger:"I actually have seen enough water coming to Vaylyrio, so I prefered a building but it will do. Rego Amancio grinned. Rego Amancio:"You poor fellows! Do you want some wine or grapes?" Messenger: "No thanks, we'll live. And that's not why we are here for." Saying that, the messenger reached for the letter. While doing that the guards followed him very carefully. You could tell they were a bit on edge. When they saw it was just a letter they were more relaxed. The messenger gave the letter to Rego. Rego Amancio cut the seal, opened the envelope and read: "The time has come..." Grimmson discussing plans with Besdarc.

Kra kraaa kraaa!! The noise was slightly annoying the messenger just like the almost unbareable heat. Lord Ssilyrrlith:"I can see you don't like this place." Messenger:"I don't want to offend you, but it's sure not one of my favorites." Lord Ssilyrrlith:"Offending someone from Nocturnus? No one ever has because they never feel offended! And I like spending time among my beloved ravens. They are my eyes and ears and they rarely miss something that happens in Nocturnus. And ofcourse in the other guilds but that's our secret. Hahaha! So I also know why you're here. Well not really but I do know you carry a letter." Messenger:"I think I get why the Nocturnus are never offended, I can feel a lot of self consience here. But you are right, a do carry a letter. Here it is." Lord Ssilyrrlith:"Do hold your tongue a bit, or you be leaving without it. And no I'm not offended, give me the letter!" Lord Ssilyrrlith cut the seal, opened the envelope and read: "The time has come..."

Messenger:"You sure know were to hide, dune after dune. We almost thought we were lost. Almost! Dextrus Flagg:"I'm sure you wouldn't get lost. You guys are skilled enough. But you're right, the dunes are a great place for a hide out. And Revolword's men don't like coming here. Too may of them died of dehydration in the sun when they walked in circles. They both laughed. Dextrus Flagg:"But it won't be for long before they will also discover this place. Revolwords followers are everywhere..." Dextrus Flagg's thoughts drifted off to all the Kaliphlins who died, especially the ones who died at the battlle of Queenscross. Wondering when it would ever end he noticed the messenger saw him getting wet eyes. Dextrus also noticed the messenger was trying to avoid looking him in the eyes while he was reaching for an envelope. Messenger:"They are indeed everywhere and it's time to stop Revolworld. Maybe now the change will come." He gave the enevelope to Dextrus Flagg Dextrus Flagg cut the seal, opened the envelope and read: "The time has come..."

Artorius Rex:"You two! You shouldn't be here! I know who you are but my men would surely mistake you for men of Revolword! messenger:"Greetings rex! I'm sure your men are skilled, but I doubt they'll find us if we don't want them to. We come... Rex:You come from the order of Eden. With news about Revolworld? messenger: Indeed from the order Sir, but no news about Revolworld. But we do have something for you. A letter, here it is. Rex:"Thank you! Send my regards to aldrin. And be carefull on your way back the dark isles has some unplesent surprises. messenger: We'll do, goodbye Sir! Rex cut the seal, opened the envelope and read: "The time has come..."

Messenger:"Jarl, it sure is good to see you again. Hopefully you're completely healed from Kaïn's attack. Jarl:"Yes the ambush surprised us all, Elon was able to get me out of the fight but too many of our men died that day. I think Elon's idea of laying low worked out quite well. Kain thought that with my absence Mitgardia would fall. But the ambush, me vanishing and Kaïn prenteding to be the killer of the Jarl only turned all Mitgardians into warriors!" Messenger:"Yes, indeed! They have tried to capture Kaïn. It has failed untill now, but a lot of Revolword's generals are killed." Jarl:"Good to hear that, I'm sure he will be captured eventually. But I'm convinced your not here to bring me that info. Aren't you?" Messenger:"No it's not, I have a letter for you from the head of the order of... Jarl:"Ofcourse the order... Than I got a pretty good feeling what will be in the envelope!" The Jarl cut the seal, opened the envelope and read: "The time has come..."

At the Eden Tower, home of the Eden order´s leader. Druid: "Are you sure you want to send this message? It will might have an enormous impact on Historica." Elon: "Before the Jarl disappeared he said if Revolworld's forces are reaching Valholl you've got to do it." Druid: "And now you are here..." Elon: "Indeed and stop hesitating, I'm ordering you to send out the letters." Druid: "Yes, you are but just taking orders is what Revolworld's forces do. I wise man first thinks about the order and what it's consequenses could be. If it was just about Valholl, I would say no! But Revolworld has taken over Cedrica and it's Throne. So the king is not there for Historica anymore. That is why I'will send the letters. Not for Valholl or the Jarl and certainly not you... Steward..." Elon:"Steward or Jarl, still leader of Mitgardia..." Druid:"I knew you would feel offended." Elon:"Just send them!" Druid:"The moment you knocked on the door, I started writing the letters and informed my messengers!" Elon:"You knew why I came?" Druid:"Don't underestimate me Elon! Nibelung, told you to come to me when they are marching towards Valholl because that means Cedrica has fallen. Go back to Valholl, prevent what happened to Ondylion and hopefully everything will be in time before more of historica falls in the hands of Revolworld." Elon:"I surely hope so too, with all my heart." Elon left to Valholl and the messengers went on their mission.

My brother. No more conversations, no more laughter, no more next year. No more drinking, no more playing, no more next month. No more hunting, no more seeing you smile, no more next week. No more you, No more Bilhan, No more tomorrow. My brother. Rest in peace!

Very entertaining story, especially now the threat isn't really over yet... And ofcourse the mocs are stunning, I think you really excel in making small houses. Nevertheless is the cathedral also a piece of art. Also nice to see quite some sigfigs. I can see Elon is very happy. And Lena did something new with her hair for the wedding. A bit mean, bit agreed for sure!

Sweet, the red works so incredibly well for Varlyrio. And as usual your water looks great as do your gondolas! Looking forward seeing the third build. Same problem here.

I'm oubting that will be of help

Fahrenheit? Really? Really?! Aren't you guys feeling the cold breeze yet?

Spamming! O, Yeah!!

So curious right now!! It's starting to get chilly!

Who says I do... Building under stress mostly gets results
