Name:
Location: Shire of Trisel, Trimaris

I am in my late forties, a proud husband, father, and a bard. I am a book pedlar by trade and a bookman by vocation. I am a romantic, a realist, and a Believer. I like a good joke, and a bad one even better. I admire all ladies for the innate beauty that is in each one, but my heart is sworn to the fair and gentle Lady Lorelei, who has consented to share my life and my name.

We Stand On The Shoulders Of Giants

We stand on the shoulders of giants.
We're the heirs of all who've been here before.
We build on the achievements of our heros
So those who follow us can be even more.

In the beginning, a few came together
To re-create the honor of an age past.
Just a party in a back yard playing dress-up,
Who would have thought that such an idea would last?
Five decades later, the party continues
From coast to coast, and even over the sea.
A society of chivalrous adventure
Living life anachronistically.

We stand on the shoulders of giants.
We're the heirs of all who've been here before.
We build on the achievments of our heros
So those who follow us can be even more.

Do you think those founders ever imagined
What would grow from what began as a lark?
Making things up by trial and error,
Building a fire from that first tiny spark.
We speak their names with unbridled reverence,
Repeat their stories by the candle light's gleam.
They blazed the trail, and we follow after
In pursuit of that same midieval dream.

And we stand on the shoulders of giants.
We're the heirs of all who've been here before.
We build on the achievements of our heros
So those who follow us can be even more.

So those who follow us can be even more.
