|

77 Lord Beaker, the anti-Zod,
|
||
78 You're very correct, I do spend a lot of my time here at
|
||
79 Backwater II. I can explain this in that because I'm still cursed
|
||
80 with part time studenthood (untill around 1995 when I get a PhD
|
||
81 in Improbability physics and temporal reajustment) and I'm just a
|
||
82 simple Berserker whos Jeep recently had its transmission stripped
|
||
83 by his older brother (from 3rd to reverse without the clutch; I'm
|
||
84 not going anywhere with things like that), Backwater is the closest
|
||
85 thing I've got to a social life. Sounds pretty pitiful, don't it?
|
||
86 I don't want to get you down, that's the job of a certain Android
|
||
87 I know of, so I'll quit with this line of thought.
|
||
88 Someone mentioned the difference between anarchy and anarchism
|
||
89 here recently. Wel personally, I find anachronism to be much more
|
||
90 fun than both of them. But then, what does my opinion matter, I'm
|
||
91 just an average Paranoid Berserker, who's probably boring you
|
||
92 to death at the moment.

105 Where are the battles, the adventures praised in song for a thousand years?

106 I had thought that this was a new beginning, not a poor refrain from a tired

114 Hello everyone,

115 This is my first entry here at BWII, so I have a question or two I'd like

116 answered. 1. Is the Name An Astral Dreamer taken?
|

117 2. If not does it sound to obnoxios?

166 Astral Dreamer: Welcome! The name is not taken, nor has it ever been
|

167 to my knowledge; however, similar names do not stop the stubborn. I

171 #Awaken,# a voice beckoned. The command went unheard.
|
||
172 #Shake off thy slumber. You have more work to do, 'prentice.#
|
||
173 A figure stirred from the cold floor, his stiff muscles protesting
|
||
174 every motion. His eyes flutterd open, blinking away the mist that clouded
|
||
175 his vision. His eyes sought the source of the voice, to no.
|
||
176 #How do you feel?# asked the presence.
|
||
177 "....weak. I t-thought I was dead."
|
||
178 #No. Merely....'suspended.' Do you remember me?#
|
||
179 He searched his memories. They had an indistinct quality to them,
|
||
180 like yesterday's daydreams. "No. Who are you?"
|
||
181 #I was at one time your master. Now do you remember?#
|
||
182 "I...uh....Dimat? Where are you? Where are we? How did I come to
|
||
183 be here? Why..." stuttered the figure.
|
||
184 #Slow down. I am here. We are here. 'Here' is a place that really
|
||
185 is nowhere, a bubble universe of sorts. You were placed here just before
|
||
186 the Great Change. You have work to do.# sent the being.
|
||
187 "But why was I chosen? What is it you would have me do?"
|
||
188 #One of your last acts upon the multiverse was to bestow your
|
||
189 mana, your ability for magick, upon your gnome apprentice. There has been
|
||
190 a prophesy: your apprentice's own mana will grow, and with your own his
|
||
191 powers will consume him. If allowed to go his own way, he will cause
|
||
192 ruin upon ruin to visit the multiverse. It is your responsibility to restore
|
||
193 the balance you have upset.#
|
||
194 "I must take back the mana? I did not know it could be done. It is
|
||
195 given only when one is near death."
|
||
196 #There is only one way. Your apprentice must die. As he dies, your
|
||
197 mana will return to you.#
|
||
198 The figure turned white. "I...m-must kill him? My trusted friend,
|
||
199 the one who I gifted with all of my magick? I cannot!"
|
||
200 #You must. If you do not, eventually more than one reality will
|
||
201 cease to exist. Among the potential casualties is Celene.#
|
||
202 "Not Celene! Grann would never..."
|
||
203 #He will! Unless he is stopped now, his powers will grow daily until
|
||
204 he cannot resist the temptation to play god.#
|
||
205 "I wil seek him out, persuade him... the future cannot be so dark!"
|
||
206 #Seeking him will suffice for now. You will see.#
|
||
207 "If I must do this thing, how will I do it? I have no magick."
|
||
208 A slender rod appeared on the floor near the figure. He gently
|
||
209 took it, examining it carefully. "Zelgar's wand! I had thought never to
|
||
210 see it again!"
|
||
211 #It was recovered after you lost it. You know it to be a powerful
|
||
212 talisman. Use it.#
|
||
213 "I don't know," said Milchar, "if I can kill my friend Grann,
|
||
214 Even to save the universe."

312 Soberness hit me like a jolt.
|

313 "Hagbard, did you feel that?" "Hagbard!" "HAGBARD!!"
|
||
314 Apparently not. Even shouting in his ear failed to stop th snoring. What
|
||
315 was it I had felt. A tremor, but notf earth, rather of soul. An old
|
||
316 presence was in the air, or in the csmos somehow. It was frienfly, but very
|
||
317 troubled. I remembered it from before, but I couldn't remember what before
|
||
318 was. And Hagbard's world was in danger. Not right now, but danger. Maybe
|
||
319 that was our quest, to save Celene.

356 then we must die. I have strayed too far. With every thought I go deeper

357 into the penicillin. The personas in the other world decided to develop
|
||
358 a strain for mechanical apitude in th 1800s(Industrial Revolution), and
|

359 then let it spread. It went from coal, to steam, to electricty, and now

360 atoms. Now the personas realize they have let it spread too far. So they
|
||
361 must sterilize the dish that we thrive in. How would they do that? Everybody
|
||
362 is afraid that an atomic war is inenvitable. If we develop an atomic shield
|
||
363 then we would have a shield. I can work out the shield, but it will take
|

364 almost my last breath. With every note, every scrawl, every diagram, I go

365 deeper into the penicillin. Yet if we finish this, we just might make it!

407 How 'bout dis un:
|
||
408 "He who lives by the sword, dies by the sword!"
|
||
409 do you know what dis means to your average Berserker?
|
||
410 Well basically we think that it says that if we live honorably by the
|
||
412 sword in life, we shall die honorably by the sword in battle, rather than
|
||
413 wait for death to find us cowering in our beds.
|
||
414 I have been told that this interpretation of the above statement isn't
|
||
415 correct, and that it actually has a different meaning. Is this true?
|
||
416
|
||
417 Also, one of the reasons I find Nuclear war so repugnant is because of
|
||
418 the above statement. You can't issue a challenge to a warhead, and where
|
||
419 is the honor in slaughtering innocent (or at least uninvolved) people with
|
||
420 such a weapon? Tis better to have One on one duel between the leaders (any
|

421 type of challenge, it need not be combat) than to slaughter the subjects.

|
||
555 It was a dark road Milchar travelled, a dark road indeed.
|
||
556 It wound between realities, held in place by forces larger than any
|
||
557 mortal had wielded, created as if an afterthought by a being he had
|
||
558 once known, but now seemed to be a complete stranger. Milchar shook his
|
||
559 head, confused, and continued his long journey.
|
||
560 Centuries- or perhaps only hours- later, the road he followed
|
||
561 entered a tunnel, blacker than the darkest night he had known. With
|
||
562 a little trepidation, he entered it.
|
||
563 Instantly, Milchar found himself upon another road, of the more
|
||
564 common sort. It was narrow and twisted quickly out of sight in both
|
||
565 directions, leaving no clue as to which was the best to follow. After
|
||
566 mentally flipping a coin, the tired mage turned left, wondering where it
|
||
567 led, if anywhere.
|
||
568 +++++++++++++++++++
|
||
569 "Careful there, Grann!" jeered a voice. "The Karegi are hungry
|
||
570 tonight!"
|
||
571 The gnome ignored it. He was confident his abilities would more
|
||
572 than suffice for this contest. Karegi, he knew, were vicious carnivores
|
||
573 and magickal, to boot- but they could be controlled through magick.
|
||
574 The spell was simple, but it drained energy from its user as it worked.
|
||
575 This contest was as simple as the spell- last longer than any of the other
|
||
576 contestants.
|
||
577 The Karegi Grann controlled was female- Grann had drawn lots for
|
||
578 the creature to control, and he knew females fought the spell harder. His
|
||
579 bad luck. Darrin, on the other hand, had been lucky and drawn the runt of
|
||
580 the pack.
|
||
581 Both contestants stood in an animal pen with their animals. There
|
||
582 were also two chunks of meat within the pen, to distract the Karegi long
|
||
583 enough to allow the contestants to get out with their hides intact.
|
||
584 Sweat began to pour over Darrin's features as his own mana level
|
||
585 dropped, exhaustion creeping closer. Grann, to his suprise, felt fine-
|
||
586 and already the contest had broken the village's record. He could not help
|
||
587 but smile at Darrin, much to the rage of the other.
|
||
588 Suddenly, Darrin's Karegi turned to face Grann. Hunger shone through
|
||
589 those cold eyes. Its muscles tensed to spring-
|
||
590 Reflex took over. Grann's female leapt up to meet the male, blocking
|
||
591 its way. Darrin had jumped out of the pen, afraid for his life, not seeing
|
||
592 what had happened but knowing he had lost control.
|
||
593 Grann's mind reached out with another spell-
|
||
594 He had both Karegi under his control.
|
||
595 The gnome watched the two Karegi sit absolutely still for a few
|
||
596 moments, and then calmly walked to the gate of the pen and let himself out.
|
||
597 The instant the latch was in place both animals sprang for the door, their
|
||
598 large mass hitting it and shaking the entire pen.
|
||
599 Onlookers stared in amazment. The award ceremony followed next, and
|
||
600 the village cheered for their strongest mage. It was some time before
|
||
601 Grann could return home, alone.
|
||
602 "Apprentice!" he yelled as he returned to his laboratory. A gnome
|
||
603 lad popped in from nowhere. "Fetch me the old book. It's happening again.
|
||
604 My power is growing rapidly, and I must know why."

714 My short rest had rejuvinated me. I came out of my meditation and began
|
||
715 to move with purpose through the ether. There was A place I must go, A
|
||
716 weapon I must pick up.
|
||
717
|
||
718 As I moved I was very carfull to be sure that I was not followed, My path
|
||
719 could not be vissible if I was to be succesfull. After much time I came
|
||
720 to the place I had been seeking. It was small pocket in this other space
|
||
721 I traveled, Unknown to all but me. I checked the seal carfully to be sure
|
||
722 that none had entered and was relieved to see that all was well,
|
||
723
|
||
724 going through I was carfull to reset the wards and traps. I went to the small
|
||
725 room that sat in the middle of the clearing that was the entire extent of
|
||
726 this land. I entered the building slowly, I did not want to disturb the device
|
||
727 that sat there, there were things that I must do in order to make it safe for
|
||
728 me to approach to closly.
|
||
729 It sat as I had last seen it, A small grey orb that pulsed with power.
|
||
730 I paused a moment to build my concentration. With a long outtake of
|
||
731 breath I began the ritual.

830 tampered with, a guise was put upon0iou."

833 can never be certainty in the realms that you travel. You were sent
|
||
834 here for a reason, And that wac0to wet the Orb. It sensed this, And so
|

835 the binding did not go well. If the guise had not been strong and your
|

836 felling of danger real it would not have worked at all."
|
||
837 "Who did this, The man in black?"
|
||
838 "I do not know, He may have been o~ly q distraction. The real threat may lay
|

839 elsewere. You know what it means to be bound to the Orb don't you?"
|
||
840 "Yes."
|
||
841 "And do you know what it means to be bound to the Orb improperly?"
|
||
842 "It has never been mentioned between us."
|

843 "Yuc, Y had not known myself when I walked these realms. I have been sent
|

844 to tell you what will come to pass if you do not complete the task that
|
||
845 has been set for you wonderer."

848 enlightenment is not always an easy one. If you do not find this path
|

849 and complete it you will be slowly consumed by the power of the Orb.

943 KKKKKKKKKKKKurfur Redlig / Whassis? Actual Response??????????????????????
|

944
|
||
945 I can7d believe that you people actually responded. Usually, I write
|
||
946 things and people compulsively ignore them (did I use that phrase right?).
|
||
947 Or maybe I just imagined that you responded. Or maybe you just imagined
|
||
948 that I imagined that you respo~ded> Or maybe..... Hold it, this is gettin
|
||
949 redundant. Somebody must be doing the imaginating, though (I hope it isn't
|
||
950 a twit). Ya know, this is scary. How do we know what is real and what
|
||
951 is imagined? If we can't make sure that things are bual,0then nothing may
|
||
952 be real. If nothing is real, then none of us exist, which means that we
|
||
953 should quit imagining that we are, and get a firm grip on unreality.
|
||
954 Therefore, it's no use wasting this non-existant disk space, because
|
||
955 theru's nobody out there to read it, and nobody here to write it.
|
||
956 I would like a response to this. Please leave an unreal message that is
|
||
957 within the imagination of whoever thinks I exist.

966 You think, therefore you are. At least you think you thought or I did. I
|
||
967 don't think anything is really real, at least I hope not. Imagining is more
|
||
968 fun, for a while anyway.

|

977 Have any of you considered the counter phrase "I eat therfore I am" ?
|
||
978 I would say that in order to eat you would have to exist by the first
|
||
979 bite, In this case you would have had to exist prior to the0dime you
|
||
980 ate. But I how could you verify your existance befor having eaten?
|
||
981
|
||
982 And, If you cannot verify your existence then why bother to eat.
|
||
983 Perhaps if you do not think about it you will cease to exist, and thus
|
||
984 never have dxe oppurtunity to prove your existance by the saying
|
||
985 quoted in the first text line of this entry.
