The Bird is like a 97-year-old war hero who sits on his front porch and salutes when the 8:47 commuter bus goes by. ;) |

You mean like Admiral Boom? “What he's famous for is punctuality. The whole world takes its time from Greenwich, but Greenwich, they say, takes its time from Admiral Boom.” Right before Admiral Boom fires his 8:00 am wake up cannons, rocking the Banks household like an earthquake. |

I laugh every time I think about that Turija! We saw Mary Poppins on stage a year ago in September - SUCH a great show, and a lovely reminder of one of my favorite works from childhood; I read it over and over.... along with the Oz books, the Black Stallion books, the Nancy Drew series.... |

As a collector I appreciate the value when something is in its original state ;) |

Some people think it's better to have something useful than to just have something. :) |

A collector, eh? Yeah, well as a gamer, I play games expecting to be entertained, and mods add to entertainment value because I can tailor the experience. You know I have a friend who owns a model T Ford. It has oil lamps for headlights... Now I'm not saying being unable to see farther than about 10 feet at night isn't a "value", but add that in to the lack of heater, AC, windshield wipers, doesn't make it sound like the vehicle I want to drive cross country from new York to Los Angeles in mid January... You see, it has that sense of value you're talking about, but not while you're actually driving it under normal conditions, eh? me, I want headlights that work, comfortable seats, a good heater, and AC, with windshield wipers being a definite plus. Original value is great to look at, not to use. |

You need to talk to Umbacano about that. |

I'm afraid it's a little too late for that. As it happened, Lothran did visit him this summer where he left him many years ago. He was still in his seat in Nenalata, hadn't even moved an inch.. ;) |

This is why you need more mods. There should be cobwebs on him. ;) |

Who? Umbacano or Mirocu? I'm betting on the latter. :D |

Lothran is enjoying his time in the Imperial City. Wandering around, placing bets in the Arena and soaking in the atmosphere is something quite special that one doesn't experience if one keeps running around all over the place. This is one reason we both love the winter hibernation in Bruma and the Jeralls; the feeling of isolation is unbeatable! :) Edit: Strolling around the Big City and visiting the Marie Elena (it's a Galleon, I think) is Lothran's life now. Buying ingredients, talking to people and get a good feel of the Big City life before leaving for the great, white north. Pretty soon he'll head out to Aleswell though not yet for a week.

Lothran has now made his final preparations and tomorrow he will depart the Imperial City and go to Aleswell which is his stop on the way to Bruma. He will stay there for about a week and enjoy the landscape and also talk to the invisible wizard. Come Friday, he will finally travel to the northern town to spend the winter. Man, after ten years I still love this bit..! ^_^ ^_^ |

Looks like it :) When he got there, Lothran did a quick skirmish into Fingerbowl Cave. Some undead turning fullydead whilst giving away some gold but except the initial rooms not much else was re-explored. Checked the local sheep and yes; they are still there all of them safely inside their pen. Then the Dunmer decided to get some sleep and it's now early morning and I suspect a trip to Ancotar is in order. Edited by mirocu, Nov 25 2017, 03:56 PM.

As day turned to evening, Lothran and I checked up on a nearby Ayleid ruin and sure enough, we'd been there before so no further delving ensued. A lone soldier on watch rode by with his torch lit - all while Masser and Secunda made their way across the night sky and the local sheep settled in. All was quiet - Cyrodiil was preparing for winter. And so was Lothran; not many days left now before the journey up north. We've had this routine for a good number of years now but I can still sum it up with one word; anticipation. ^_^ |

Aleswell, early morning. Lothran left this little hamlet just when the sun has started to rise. A slight breeze and the sounds of the forest followed him as he walked down the road eastward. When he got to the Ayleid ruin he had to help a guard get rid of two bandits; one Orc and one Argonian. Mundane stuff, business as usual. Business not as usual; turning north at the intersection! Climbing that hill produces the same kind of butterflies that dear Buffy always chases when she sees them. Well, almost the same kind anyway. Only two obstacles on the way; one Ogre and one Minotaur Lord. Supposed to be one bandit as well but a Forrester got the better of that one. Lothran healed him as thanks as he had taken some damage. As morning turned to day, the Nordic Dunmer reached his goal; Bruma! First order of business; checking up on the house. Thankfully, everything seemed to be in order. (I could almost sense the smell of a log cabin not having been aired out!) Then a walk around town to take it all in. No snowfall yet but it looked like it wasn't far away. Soon, it would begin to fall and the true feeling of Winter would set in, and everything would fall into place. Lothran was home! |

Today has been all about putting brought things into the right containers. Ingredients in the ingredients barrel, gems and jewels in the treasure chest and various weapons accordingly. Most noteworthy item this year; The Great Welkynd Stone! It's actually not in the treasure chest but rather it's floating above it while producing its ghostly glow. Other items have been sold and some ingredients bought. And yes; snowfall has begun so the season has officially kicked off for realz! We look forward to some peace and quiet in town, trekkings through the mountains and most of all; the annual Christmas ogre hunt in Pale Pass! ^_^ |

Sounds like he is settling in nicely. I need to play Oblivion again. I had a blast with Melora. |
