[QUOTE="simmo, post: 1470526, member: 9744"] [i][b]We Interrupt This Adventure[/b] to bring you the following scholarly excerpt by the noted sage Littleby Cakebeard [Note: this chapter was written by Crater, who plays Littleby Cakebeard] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]Chapter 5 - Love as Death [/COLOR] A Dwarven hero named Cebolla fell madly in love with the Dwarf princess Oyen, the most beautiful and radiant creature he had ever known. Her hair was black as onyx and such gold coarsed through her veins that she was more than her father's daughter. Cebolla was buried in her but while Oyen had known many lovers, none would she entrust to rule the kingdom. When she left him he was heart broken and he swore that he was destined to one day win back her love. This oath consumed his life and soul. A restless spirit he defeated in battle granted him the gift of second sight. He would dream of secrets hidden in unfathomable caverns and would imagine pathways through rock and ore twisting ever onwards. No door was closed to him and the labyrinth eternal held no mystery. He saw all there was to see in all of creation but behind no door could he see Oyen. 'Bring me the one I love.' he whispered to the beetle, who scurried off and told the lizard. The lizard scampered to tell the bat who fluttered away and told the troll. The troll told the giant and the giant told the dragon. The dragon flew to the heart of the world and told Moridan Moradin who threw down his tools and went to Cebolla, who by now was old and decrepid, dying by the waters edge. 'You have wasted your life.' said Moridan Moradin to the lame hero, ' You have mistaken destiny for dream and like a fool you have searched too hard for what you always knew could never be. You have no strength because you have never known yourself. Know now that you are lord of all that shall not come to pass. Now drink from the pool and be at peace.' Cebolla drank the dark water and died peacefully. [/i] [/QUOTE]
