THE DREAM HAS COME TRUE
Ceremony in Geela


     Already from the early hours of dawn the guests arrived at the port, a delegation was there to welcome them, the festively decorated city of Geela sparkled with golden banners and garlands of white flowers along the streets up to the temple of ceremonies.
   
     I spent the morning walking around Geela, from one place to another checking everything, everything seemed perfect, I went to the tailor to pick up the dress he had made for me, looking at it it was beautiful white and gold with the blue belt band, I did it brought to my office I would have dressed there, I didn't want to enter the house that Takama had furnished and prepared for us, the seamstress told me that Takama had already collected hers and that she was certainly trying it on, after the tour I returned to my office and reread the company contract, I certainly hadn't written about my properties, but it was superfluous, Takama loved me and didn't have a Father who demanded a dowry, but I had told her about my Oasis of the Seven Palms, one day I would take her to that paradise to live happily with my people, but for now we would stay here and work, me as Chief Scribe and her as Baker until a new one came to take her place.

     The day before Takama had come to my office for documents to change her name to my El Darian, a formality but all the papers were ready and after the signatures I took them to lady Skylar the tatrix for her seal, much to my Surprised she told me that she wouldn't celebrate, but Sir Jovan, I was unprepared for that news but in the end Jovan would also be up to the task, he was still Tatrix's brother.

    In the evening I went to the temple well in advance, some guests were already seated, the candles were lit and the flowers perfumed the environment, the slaves were running from one place to another and the musicians were preparing their stage, we would have danced after the end of the ceremony , and the cutting of the cake, meanwhile the time was approaching, Jovan was already on the altar fiddling with bottles and rolls of parchment,
I stopped at the top of the stairs at the entrance under the columns and waited... after the room was filled with guests Takama finally arrived in her white dress embroidered with diamonds and white ribbons, she was finally here, I took her under my arm to my right and I took her to the altar, the ceremony was very emotional, the slaves were crying and applauding, Jovan was confident, I was a little less embarrassed but as you know, it's normal.

    Once the ceremony was over everyone applauded happily, we cut the cake and offered a piece to everyone, while the painters drew the scene, then the dancing began and continued throughout the night, in the end tired we retired to our new home, tired but happy, finally I had seen Takama without a veil and I had been able to kiss her on the lips.

     We postponed what would have been our new life until the next day.

VERSO IL FUTURO
 


     Sono appena ritornato da Falworth
dopo aver intervistato la Pantera Cree, con mia grande sorpresa mentre raggiungevo la nave, incontrai una Shaman, conoscevo per sentito dire ma non avevo mai incontrato di persona, una figura spaventosa per chi non è preparato all'incontro, mi si paro davanti all'improvviso. proprio mentre scendevo il ripido pendio che mi avrebbe portato al porto dove la mia nave aspettava, avevo mandato via le guardie perché preparassero la partenza, ed ero solo e disarmato. Lei con un balzo felino mi attacco bloccandomi con il suo lungo bastone, dove in cima aveva infilato un teschio umano, mentre ero li disteso guardavo il suo viso dipinto da mille colori e le guance bianche spettrali.

    Mi chiese come ero arrivato in quel villaggio di Pantere e cosa volessi da loro, dopo avergli spiegato che ero un giornalista e che aveva già avuto un'intervista da Cree la giovane pantera gli dissi che conoscevavo bene la loro regina Rikki, avevamo già avuto modo di incontrarci in Thentis e nella fiera di En-Kara, anche lei una brava giornalista, inoltre mi mostro dopo avermi liberato il cerchio Magico dove loro ossequiavano i morti, tutti i Goreani morti avevano i loro nomi scritti su un grande muro nero e molte lampade accese in suffragio.

    Parlammo molto di Gor e delle pantere, finche incomincio a fidarsi di me e mi porto nel loro vero villaggio, nascosto oltre le caverne della montagna, non credo che nessuno mai fosse arrivato in quel villaggio senza essere ucciso, fu un grande onore scoprire la vera vita delle Pantere e mentre parlavamo prendevo appunti e disegnavo la donna e il villaggio, lei mi disse che Shekinah Arani era l'unico grande villaggio rimasto ai margini della foresta di Shendi, e l'unico che ancora manteneva le loro tradizioni, gli chiesi da dove veniva, e mi disse che lei arrivava dal Nord, insieme alle guerriere più forti quelle che riuscivano a sopravvivere al viaggio e alle imboscate, intanto si sentivano gridare di richiamo da parte delle mie guardie per la partenza, salutai lo Sciamano dicendo che sarei tornato per parlare con la loro regina (EN) Rikki e continuare la storia emozionante, e ritornai alla nave.

      A Geela fervevano i preparativi per la cerimonia della mia compagnia con Takama, tutte le schiave affaccendate agli ordini di Takama e Skylarr con ghirlande e fiiori arredavano il tempio, la cerimonia sarà celebrata domani 18settembre (earthtime), ore 12slt, lady Skylarr sarà l' officiante, presto andro da lei per delle modifiche al contratto poi andro dalla sarta per l'ultima prova del vestito, mentre Takama felicissima mi guarda con gli occhi dell'amore, la casa e già pronta e arredata, ho mandato gli invitati agli amici altri li mandero oggi, ......che dire son felice.....

CRIVING THE SEAS


       I always remember it, that city remained in my heart, I thought about it the other evening while looking at the sea on the horizon, and the mountain behind me with its unexplored reliefs, yes I'm talking about the city where I started my career and had them the first job at Cartogrago, I would have preferred to become an Ambassador but it wasn't very big, we lived on fishing and farm products.

    Sir Ming was the Ubar, at that time Lady Chiara's companion, he took a liking to me, I became his trusted friend and I lived in the palace together with his family, until a beautiful slave arrived, tall, dark-skinned with feline and sensual movements , as soon as I met the slaver I bargained her for two silver plates and took her to my quarters in the palace, I believed that happiness had finally arrived, but Sir Ming also set his eyes on the black slave, meanwhile Lady Chiara never missed an opportunity to launch me fiery looks, I didn't know her yet but she never missed an opportunity to bring slaves into her rooms.

     Sir Ming had the slave imprisoned and threatened to kill me if I tried to free her, while he ordered the guards to capture Lady Chiara and take her to the Kennel as a slave, because she had argued a lot with Ming about that slave, Chiara was very jealous, a trusted guard I told myself about the imminent capture, and I, aided by trusted guards and slaves, took Lady Chiara and escaped with a ship leaving for Port Kar, Sir Ming was happy not to have to kill me and make her companion a slave, he gave the slave her freedom and he took her as a companion, I later learned that they had left the city of Falworth to move to an island in the Cos archipelago.
    
"there could be more.....
     With lady Chiara things did not go well she loved every man she met and demanded that I be present and participate with her in her sexual encounters, so I took my things again and left for the city of Egeria, I would return to Port Kar later as a lawyer.
      I really wanted to see the old places again, Falworth is not very far from Geela, only a stretch of sea divides the island from the city, so I organized a trip with the excuse of proposing a treaty of friendship and peace, I set off. Once at the port there was no longer the old city with its docks and its houses all around the large square, but only some shacks used as port warehouses and a road that led to the mountains.

      I was very disappointed, I loved that city even though over the years I have seen many, some of them very beautiful, I decided to follow that road and find out where it led, I arrived in a clearing after climbing the steep road, I then found myself in front of a portal, there 'It was written Shekinah Arani, I couldn't understand until I glimpsed the palisade, definitely a Panther village, perhaps the same ones they had destroyed, Port Korat not far away, where as a child I had taken refuge with Darian, escaping from our Oasis, having arrived at the door made of logs, I stopped waiting for someone to open the door or for someone to arrive.


     While I was sitting I thought about the journey and the vanished city, like a flash a Panther arrived, armed to the teeth and with a threatening tone I asked myself who I was and what I wanted from his village, I told him of my intentions to see my first city again and of the opportunity to write an article about his tribe.
 
     He told me his name was Cree, and that he was a young panther even though his sisters did their best to teach him all about fighting and raids and mountain survival. I asked him about Shekinah, he told me it was perhaps the last great panther village. of Shendi and the forest, he also told me that their Queen (EN) is called Mariko, but now on a trading trip, (or at least I understood it) I asked him to tell me the story of his life, before she was suspicious and looked at me in silence, then he took a breath and started speaking. (and I'll tell you exactly what she told me).

*Cree's Arrows Fly*

A slaver voice gets range to Cree -
And shouts 'whos slave are rutty thee!?'

-- growls silently at surprise unwelcome
when picking the rippened berries --

"Born on the wings of time,
Not easy to define.
Don't think born Late,
Just in time.
The island was sinking,
So I was taken to sky.
twas in Tarn,
Only now I know."

"Dropped in to the sea,
And washed ashore.
That's what Im told,
Is all I know."

--Slaver stopped by ear intrigued--
--Cree bought the time to quiver ready--
 
"We love other things
From this time,
The spiders orb,
The silent snake,
a waters voice,
The blood of wound,
Or flesh with roast
Wrapped in greens.
These are my parts---
---And make my bow TIGHT!"

Aiming now,
with the Priestess's strength
who controls all evil,
squints the taught Shaman's sharp blink of eye,
and swift ponders on Slavers reply --

-- Hard to grow here?
What is this thought


But they never ask the tree,
