Peredhil Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 Peredhil enters the Pen silently. For a change, he travels alone. Making his way to his chambers, he opens the drawer beside the bed, and after gently touching the empty spot where someone had removed a picture, he shifts his hand and removes a small worn book. Opening to the bookmark, he enscribes, 32. EverQuest Lord Frond Terpsichorean Adept of The Legion of the White Rose. Order of the Jade Arrow Underneath the words, he draws a pair of dancing shoes, dangling from the words by their laces. Removing a white rose and a thorn from his pocket, he places the rose on the bottom of the page he pricks his finger and lets a single drop of blood drop onto the petal. After the azure glow has faded, a white-gold petal remains on the page. Replacing the book with a gentle smile, he makes his way to the Cabaret, hugging people as he goes. There, he joins his bodyguards and sons at a table. Answering Elrohir's silent query, he replies, Well, Real Life has claimed another piece of my heart. Now I am Frond no more, only an Ancient with less and less time. At least, unlike so many others, I leave with affection and good memories for my comrades. Looking into the dark swirl of an aged wine, he broods. He hates having to let things go.
Lady Celes Crusader Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 I just wish that you'll bring your politeness here from time to time. Good luck Peredhil (or the man I thought he was a woman).
Alaeha Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 *Hugs* I'm sorry... I haven't played Everquest in so long... mostly because most of the people I enjoy talking to aren't there anymore. But it really hurts to quit something you enjoy because you have to, rather than because you choose to. *Sighs* *Hugs again*
Ayshela Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 *hugs* i'm sorry. i'm very glad you leave with fond memories, but i'm sorry you have to leave something you enjoy. All we need is 30 hour days....
Aardvark Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 Three bits of advice which have kept me alive to this day One: Don't take the advice of someone who claims to be alive Two and Three: Don't forget rule number one Cya, dude
Peredhil Posted August 2, 2003 Author Report Posted August 2, 2003 Meep! I'm not leaving the Pen! What I've left is the Legion of the White Rose. Without EverQuest, and with my more and more limited online time, I was not only ineffectual, I was perhaps disruptive. I like all the people there enough not to ruin what they have, plus it's a logical cost/benefit decision. There's a place called Ancients for inactive people here. The small amount of time I spend here and writing PMs seems to make a difference. Where else am I gonna get daily hugs? -Peredhil who's finding he doesn't communicate clearly when exhausted.
Guest Oujisama Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 (edited) Hmm. *hugs* Edited August 3, 2003 by Oujisama
Ayshela Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 *laugh* *I* knew what you meant! and for daily hugs... those are *always* available. *hugs*
Cerulean Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 Glad you still have time for The Pen, at least! *hugs* C.
Alaeha Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 I knew what you meant as well, I think. So you can always PM me when you're exhausted. Some people are a lot of fun on no sleep. Such as myself. And Daily hugs are available from me, as well. Or Hourly. Because I like hugs too. *Hugs*
Gwaihir Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 We'll always be here to care about you, Peredhil.
