RETURN TO HAMMERSGAARD
THE STORY OF NANI THE PANTHER

 

After the end of the Kajires festival with great effort we resumed the return journey to the village of Hammersgaard, I had left the problem of little Bjior in suspense, the son of our friend Nani who I had discovered to be a Panther and now returned to live in his campo together with her sisters, who helped her in the constant search for the baby.
    We arrived at the village very tired, my sweet Brjiana and I, and we rested for a few days in a hut made available to us by our friend Sir Edu, the innkeeper. I wanted to rearrange my ideas so I started asking around for information, nobody knew anything, many didn't even know Nani. One morning at the port a merchant told me that he had seen her in a panther field where he traded in skins, exchanging them for weapons and wine. He made me a fairly detailed map of the area where the village is located so with a few trusted guards I left Brjiana at the village and walked into that forest dangerous for us men.
  After a few days of walking between hills and valleys, finally from a height we saw a wisp of smoke rising to the sky, we headed towards that direction taking care to watch our backs, but the unpredictable Panthers came out from everywhere until they captured us. They are known to take men prisoners because they use them to make women fertile, and then become pregnant and have daughters for the continuation of their race.

 I showed what appeared to be their leader and most armed of all my magistrate credentials, and proof that I knew Nani and her old companion Edu. arrived at the village they locked us in a large guarded tent, until the group of panthers headed by our friend Nani returned from a hunt in the vicinity of a village, taking with them three captured men that they would use as stallions for their fertilization, the sterile ones were used as slaves for cooking or hard work in the forest.
   She was delighted to meet me, I hadn't seen her for some time and I remembered her dressed as a lady with long dresses, while now half-naked covered in skins and armed to the teeth she was another woman, determined and tough willing to do anything to find her little Bjior . In the evening sitting in a circle in front of a fire, where some men roasted Tarsk's meat, I asked him to tell me her story, which after some hesitation I agree to reveal it to

THE STORY OF NANI

 was born in a Panther camp in the forest not far from the village of Hammersgaard, in the great North of the planet, we were three sisters, very happy, from an early age they instructed us in hunting and fighting, it was just a short time when my sisters with other friends we could play in the meadows, chasing some little urt or some little newborn tarsk, my older sisters taught me the art of the Staff and all the rest. Everything was fine, but the day of the Moons ceremony was approaching, for us Virgins it would have been the moment of Sacrifice to the Gods for our fertility

 and our camp. The ceremony consists of driving out several males to place them on the cross and we Virgins to dance around them frantically, a way to worship our God and ask for fertility for women and for our fields, and our animals. So one after another the males are used, hoping they will fertilize the women, and fill the field with new women, while the males are destined to become slaves. My sisters and I got pregnant, and my little Bjior was soon to be born, but since there were four boys and everyone had used me, now I don't know exactly who my baby's father is. By now I knew I was pregnant, now the problem was to enter the village without arousing suspicion, otherwise they would have punished and enslaved me, the law punishes pregnant women without a partner. At this point a new baker named Edu arrived, who fell in love with my beauty and asked the great Jarl to court me, obtained the consent he started dating me, but soon he realized that I was pregnant, and I had to tell him to wait a child, for my love he pretended to be the

father until Bjior was born. Edu after some time I leave, his character as a Gorean man prevented him from living with a woman who had a child with another, so I left everything in Hammergaard and went back to the camp to my sisters, but they did not want the little one who was growing up , they would put him together with the slaves. While I was in hammersgaard one day came a great Jarl from a nearby village, with his 1st Berseker named Spoldar, both savage and evil and very cruel men. When he saw me fell in love with me, I worked in Edu's tavern with the hope that sooner or later he would take me back with him. The foreign Jarl wanted me for him and in order not to create friction with our village jarl he demanded that I take his Berseker as a companion and once I arrived at his village take me with him, when I refused he kidnapped my child trying to escape, but the villagers stopped him on the quay and killed him, but

in the meantime Spoldark had fled into the forest with my little boy without leaving a trace. Edu confessed to me that he has birthmarks on his body that if they coincide with those of the child he would accept it, and every day I go hunting for men using them with the hope of finding the Berseker who escapes with my Bjiork. Now every man I catch I want to give me at least six children or else I will kill him, but only to take revenge on the men who made me suffer. Of course in the village of Hammersgaard they do not know that I am a Panther and I often return there and live in a shack intended for free women, with the hope that one day they will hear from Bjior. darianelnairad

THE KAJIRE FESTIVAL
 

After the end of the En-Kara fair. life starts again normally, we spent the time writing articles for our newspaper, with my sweet Brjiana. Often due to our agreements with the villages and cities, we made long trips up to the far north, where after the agreement we set up our newsstand, and where everyone can get a copy of our Gazette dell Luna, which gradually more people he begins to love, and the profits partly pay for the expenses of the voyages on our ship.
    Now we were in Hammersgaard. they had called us for a bad story that took place in the village, to our friend Nani and her partner Edu the innkeeper, and that is to say they had kidnapped the little son of both of us who, as you will remember, had witnessed her birth in the lake of waterfalls.

 As Magistrate I began to investigate, questioning the parents, first Sir Edu who after various hesitations, I confess that he was not sure he was the father of the child, a bolt from the blue, in the sense that I had always judged the couple to be tranquil and happy ,
 but he didn't want to say anything else, so we went to the tent outside the village, where what was Lady Nani has now become the Nani Panther, had returned to take on the role of her origins.
  We were disappointed, but at the same time curious to know the truth about the woman and the disappearance of the child. after hugging us and saying goodbye she burst into tears, a desperate cry, and told us that while I was training outside the walls, a warrior Commander of a ship who lived in the village with his family,

demanded to have her as a companion, and it was so that after Nani's no he raped her, she never said anything to her partner. and she continued her life until the birth of the child, she was sure that  was the warrior's because the agreements with the companion dom by law were that she arrive a virgin at the ceremony. When the warrior learned of the baby's birth, he organized a kidnapping by taking him away with him, and then entrusting him to his relatives, because in the meantime he was engaged in a war with an enemy village, but was killed in a fighthing.
Now no one knew where the kid had been taken and which of her relatives was involved in the kidnapping, and Nani have taken back the Panther clothes and insignia to hunt down the kidnappers and get the baby back.

    A moving and at the same time contradictory story, because she would have had to follow her warrior who for love had raped her, and now she was venturing into a desperate adventure, I as Magistrate explained that the law of the planet in these cases if the malefactor he dies, his relatives and his family are persecuted and if they do not collaborate, the women and men sent to the iron mines to serve their sentences are enslaved.
  Despite our efforts in Hammersgaard the investigations were at a standstill, we received an invitation as a newspaper to go to  festival of the Kajires, which would take place in a village much further north, so we decided to go there to looki.

    We arrived after a few days of walking by now the snow was melted and the slopes were clear to follow, as soon as we arrived we realized that it was certainly something big, many people crowded the village, all the tribes and every race had concentrated there . for the Festival of dances, Kajire, Talunas, Tuchuk, Wagons, Dancers of the desert, Dancers from the far south with yellow skin, and Cities Dancer. the more evolved ones with a more  culture than the wild of the forests.
  We watched happily and with admiration at those dances, I had already seen something like this in my life, a Kajire festival in the city of Port Kar, where I worked as a lawyer, let's say that in recent years both musicians and dancers have evolved.

    For the return we stopped in a new village in the forest where we made the agreement for the newspaper and then left again for our Oasis.

LADY TATIARA

In uno dei miei viaggi insieme alla mia compagna Brjiana ci siamo fermati al villaggio di Lara, in ricostruzione dopo che degli eventi negativi l 'avevano distrutto.
Arrivati al porto, chiedemmo di parlare con il Comandante oppure l'Amministratore, ci dissero che ancora molti cittadini erano in viaggio per ritornare dopo la fuga, nel frattempo una Tatrix dirigeva le costruzioni e il buon andamento del villaggio. Chiedemmo di poterla incontrare e una guardia ci accompagno in quella che diventerà la grande piazza al centro del villaggio.
   Si vedeva che i lavori erano attivi . molti operai lavoravano le pietre delle pareti e i legni che sarebbero diventati assi dei soffitti,
 e finalmente incontrammo la Tatrix .. Lady Tatiara, ricordai subito lei e la sua figura, sempre abbronzata dai raggi del sole, ci eravamo incontrati alla grande città di Cartassa, quando vivevo con la mia grande famiglia Arliss, con mia ,madre lady BB arliss e mio padre sir MIth arliss, mia zia lady Mae, mia sorella aquisita lady Safina, l'altra sorella Shani e Irene con mio fratello Finthor, diciamo che mia madre nei suoi tanti matrimoni aveva adottato tanti figli, e voleva bene a tutti.

      Ricordo che io spesso mi confondevo con i nomi, Safina con Sarina, nei primi tempi in citta, offuscato dalla bellezza di lady Jinny  che divento mia compagna per poco tempo prima che fuggisse con un Capitano di una nave, non era soddisfatta del suo lavoro di Scribe, ma questa è un altra storia.
   Dicevo incontrai li lady Tatiara, non ci fu un rapporto di amicizia ma di semplice conoscenza, in quanto io Magistrato ero impegnato con il mio lavoro e facevo poca vita di città.
   Ora me la ritrovavo d'avanti come tatrix di un villaggio in ricostruzione, che impartiva ordine alla costruttrice, e diventata una grande donna,Io mi presentai come Emiro dell'oasi delle sette Palme, lasciai a Brjiana il compito di definire gli accordi del giornale e dell'edicola, da mettere nel porto per la vendita dei giornali, poi lei mi invito alla sala da te dove seduti parlammo del passato e del presente, lei mi disse che aveva il compagno che preferiva essere un Guerriero anziche fare vita di ufficio, lei sapeva che io ero Magistrato del Pianeta, mi invito a vivere nel villaggio  come Magistrato

provvisorio, sapeva bene che io ho la mia Oasi con il mio popolo, io accettai di buon grado, e bello aiutare gli amici, gli chiesi se la mia Brjiana in quanto Avvocato potesse  lavorare con me,  e fu cosi che ci destino gli uffici di fianco alla corte.     Ora tra un viaggio e l'altro  mi fermo qualche giorno per sbrigare lavori di ufficio, e registrazioni varie, non ci sono delinquenti nel villaggio, e nessuno che trasgredisce la legge quindi il lavoro è poco.
    Presto ci saranno le votazioni per eleggere il Comandante, io ho proposto come osservatore esterno la scelta di un uomo autorevole e determinato, si è fatto il nome del compagno di lady Tatiara.. ma staremo a vedere.......

       LADY TATIARA

 On one of my trips with my partner Brjiana we stopped at the village of Lara, under reconstruction after negative events had destroyed it.
Arrived at the port, we asked to speak with the Commander or the Administrator, they told us that many citizens were still on their way to return after their escape, in the meantime a Tatrix was directing the construction and the good running of the village. We asked to be able to meet her and a guard accompanied us to what will become the large square in the center of the village.
  It was evident that the works were active. many workers worked the stones of the walls and the woods that would become ceiling boards,
 and finally we met the Tatrix .. Lady Tatiara, I immediately remembered her and her figure, always tanned by the rays of the sun, we had met in the big city of Cartassa, when I was living with my big family Arliss, with my, mother lady BB arliss and my father sir MIth arliss, my aunt lady Mae, my acquired sister lady Safina, the other sister Shani and Irene with my brother Finthor, let's say that my mother in her many marriages had adopted many children, and she loved everyone.
   I remember that I often got confused with the names, Safina with Sarina, in the early days in the city, overshadowed by the beauty of Lady Jinny who became my companion for a short time before she ran away with a Captain of a ship, she was not satisfied with her job as a Scribe, but that's another story.
   I said I met them Lady Tatiara, there was not a relationship of friendship but of simple acquaintance, as I Magistrate was busy with my work and I did little city life.
    Now I found her in front of me as a tatrix of a village under reconstruction, who gave orders to the builder, and became a great woman, I introduced myself as Emir of the oasis of the seven Palms, I left Brjiana the task of defining the agreements of the newspaper and of the newsstand, to be put in the port for the sale of newspapers, then she invited me to the tea room where we sat and talked about the past and the present, she told me that she had the companion who preferred to be a Warrior rather than lead an office life, she knew that I was Magistrate of the Planet, I invite me to live in the village as a provisional Magistrate, she knew well that I have my Oasis with my people, I gladly accepted, and nice to help my friends, I asked him if my Brjiana as a lawyer he could work with me, and it was in this way that we set up the offices next to the court. Now between one trip and the next I stop for a few days to do office work, and various recordings, there are no criminals in the village, and no one who breaks the law so there is little work.
    Soon there will be the votes to elect the Commander, I have proposed as an external observer the choice of an authoritative and determined man, the name of Lady Tatiara's companion has been made .. but we'll see

TOWARDS NEW HORIZONS

great city of port Olni

After the En-Kara fair, many things have changed. with Brjiana we travel a lot lately, from village to village from city to city.
      We had left our ship at the port of Olni, where a time i lived, and where Lady Lucy lately burdened with many problems has changed her attitude towards me, but I left my heart in that city, I started the my firsts study with lady Lucy and lady Janette (unfortunately she disappeared in real world), I was pleased to meet again the Pysician sir Ronmag, but he too was leaving for the city of Helenos, where he would join his companion, we invited him to the Oasis, and he I accept, for a few days I stay with us on the island, then he resumed the journey towards his new adventure.
    Good news made us happy or at least for me .. lady Safina after the destruction of the oasis by the desert Marauders, with the help of her tribe and her companion the pasha Combo, has rebuilt the oasis in full desert, I was busy with the city of Lara where from time to time they call me for my job as a Magistrate, and for the new alliance.

My sweet Brjiana with a caravan reached the Cartassa Oasis, stipulating contracts with Lady Safina and placing our Gazette of Moon newsstand in the entrance of the oasis.
    Something has changed in Hammersgaard, we received rumors of change and decided with Brjiana to go and visit the village and meet again Lady Nani with her baby and Sir Edu the innkeeper, waiting to be received by the village chief for the new alliance.
    In the meantime we have entered into alliances and contracts with the village of Bergwik, we have passed by to the great Jad on the island of Cos for distribution,
 we made an alliance with the city of Kasra, passing through the Thahari desert we stopped at Red Rock, a new great Oasis and the Pasha a really smart man hosted us for a few days.

The Oasis of Seven Palms

    On our way to the sea of ​​Thassa we came across a new large village, Lara the her name, still under construction but already determined and I with Brjiana agreed to work for them as Magistrate and Lawyer her  when they will need, then we left the village to reach our Oasis, we stopped to the island of Landa. rebuilt after the flood that destroyed it, remember I was a Cartographer on that island but I was forced to flee and find shelter in a desert island, where we then with Brjiana built our Oasis of the Seven Palms.
    I forgot .. while we were in the desert I remember that I was lived for some time at the oasis of Theera as a Magistrate, at the time there also lived there sir Youroki and sir Lc, my bitter enemy from the time of the first Cartassa,

village of Hammersgaard

then passing from Mirkwood Sa-Pasheen tribe, we also concluded with their alliance.
    While we were working on the newspaper and at the big party for our return that we would soon have at the Oasis, we received the news that in Port Kar, a new Commander had taken power in the City so we decided to go up the Sea of ​​Thassa to stipulate a new agreement, but once we arrived we met useless resistance from the new Commander, he said that they did not need to read but preferred taverns and slaves as a pastime, we left quite disappointed by that gentleman want  to give us lessons behavior, he who at first glance seems to me a rough commander accustomed to plowing the seas and certainly descended from some Pirates who infest the Thassa sea and the Vosk River.
.... Now we are at home and we are happy to prepare the party with my beloved Brjiana.

Report Interview Lady Tatiana, Tatrix of Village of Lara
 

It was a rainy day when I started my journey to the Village of Lara again. We had been here some time before and were welcomed very friendly, an agreement was made with our Gorean Moons Gazette and we were also very pleased hear that the Emir is also a Magistrate and I am now an Advocate.
Lady Elosie, the HOC Merchent of Lara, casually told a story that really made me spit, it sounded so unbelievable and sad, and yet so true.
It was a matter of honor for me to get to the bottom of this and so I decided to travel again for an interview with Tatrix Lady Tatiana.
It involved stealing the town's name, which I must point out was the Village of Lara, which was formerly White Water River.
The fact of such theft is tantamount to stealing a Home Stone and should not go unpunished.
It is only thanks to the good nature of the Tatrix that there were no charges or contract killings.

I am now attaching the interview I conducted on 3/31/2022.

interviewed Person: Lady Tatiana, Tatrix  of Village of Lara
hereinafter referred to as Tatrix.

interviewer Person: Bryjana El Nairad, Chief Editor
hereinafter referred to as Gorean Moons(GM).


GM: she takes off her veil and takes another deep breath, although her voice is soft and melodious, there is still the        undertone of a torvie and she smiles:
       "we put a newspaper rack here yesterday, lady, and i heard about the stealing of the town name and would like to         Report about it in the next issue

Tatrix: I am Tatiara Esharham, Village Leader here since we are in the North.
         Callisto Grimwald is who started posting Adverts for the second White Water around March 11th, we Opened Our          White Water March 6th I believe.who started posting Ads for the second White Water.
         they tried saying they had been open since November 2021 but when I went looking for names on the Gorean              Map that were not taken, White Water was not on any Map, there were no groups, no land with the name, so how           if they had been open for so long why could I not find them
         I looked for 2 weeks before picking a name.
         we were a small 1/4 sim so we were just that a small port outpost.here we are much more, a simple build, a new          type of build like Old Gor used to do.
         
GM:   i understand i have visit a white water city but here are the owner ayita meastra(naybabe) and Kymir                             Pardus(Gabe Constantine) , it seems there are two sims with the same name, some time ago i visited White                   Water River, these exist no more.
        
Tatrix:  that second white water was us ,we moved here about a week ago .

GM :  and as for the opening of the stolen white water, you can find out when the sim was bought.
         Have you done anything about this name steal?

Tatrix: I did, LL said, since they weren't full duplicates, there was nothing they could do.  
         She came to our build, read our rules/laws then opened her White Water,her Sims build is similar to ours just                bigger scale with more rl money backing her at the time.
         
         
GM:     it's only going to get worse, so the same cityscape* shakes his head angrily Because i would say as an                       that stealing a city name is the same as stealing a Homestone .

Tatrix:   I agree. If they were open in November and closed due to low numbers why reopen after we did.

GM:   one should lay the handwork to these people, so you were forced to build everything from scratch

Tatrix : their build doesnt look gorean in my opinion.It's more like ancient Rome
          or greece. Our build was alot of what you can see here. We were able to get a full sim by the grace of the Priest           Kings and some hard work
          
GM :    you have a beautiful Nordic village, Lady Tatiana

Tatrix:  Thank you ,   That was our goal .  White Water and Lara are so remote that being all brick or sand would be very            expensive and unrealistic.
           We wanted to start small and grow but many people wont go to a 1/4 sim or a 1/3 sim or even a Homestead.
           perhaps, I think karma will get people when its their time, I have put my focus into our new build, into our new                home, we are 34 people strong and this is Day 5 since our opening here.
           
GM:      I congratulate you on this success   

Tatrix:   We welcome anyone as long as they follow sim rules and do not bring OOC drama to our sim, we are willing                   to adjust the build within reason if people can prove why something is needed.
            
GM:     Thank you Tatrix for this detailed interview, I'm sure our readers will be as shocked by this as I am .

Tatrix:   Thank you Lady.


Editor's note


White water( who stole the name was on )
 
bought tue, jun.15. 2021 20.49

It can be seen that this sim was formerly under a different name, which then closed in November 2021 and reopened in March under the name White Water, albeit after the opening of the original White Water River

LIFE GOES ON
 

 

Returning from the mission in the forest to help the tribal chief for the disappearance of his best men, after a few days of rest with my beloved Brjiana, we decided to embark on another new journey, there were  the scrool arrived with a ship, they invited us , in the city of Olni to visit the Equestrian Circus, in my life I had never seen anything like it, only sometimes in the cities, jugglers or wanderers with their wagon, who perform with dances, games. sometimes even illusionists,
    We would have taken advantage of the En-Kara fair which usually coincides with the start of the new year on the planet on March 21, the day of the Spring Solstice. We decided to leave early so that we could rent a stand to make our Moon Gazette newspaper known, and distribute it to all those interested, perhaps giving it free at the fair.
   We organized the trip, we prepared the ship, we would stop in

Brundisium, and then go up the Vosk river to the Olni river delta and reach the city. from there then go up the river to the Thentis delta, and then organize a caravan to the Sardar region for the En-Kara fair, which this year as I said would be on the way to the sanctuary, while last year as you will remember it was organized in the Oasis of the two Scimittarre
   By now the winter was almost over, the river quiet even if very busy due to the many cities that overlook its banks, and finally we reached the port of Olni, moored the ship in a secondary quay and went ashore to climb the large stairways that give to the gates, but we were not welcomed wery good, there was a lot of coldness on the part of the Administrators, remember that I lived in Olni for years as Scribe and Magistrato, and they never forgave me for to have leaving them, but my free spirit always pushes me towards new adventures.
   They had assembled the circus beyond of the Tuchuk camp, where my friend's tribe lives as well lady Kara Serin, on the border with the city of Ti, where I lived for some time before moving to Olni, I was a cartographer in the city of Ti, but I didn't have much work, it was more a village than a city.

   The next morning, with so much disappointment at having been treated by strangers by Lady Lucy, we set out on foot towards the circus. we took some newspapers with us that we would distribute to the visitors.
  The next day we set sail for the city of Thentis. from where we would leave for the fair, the not very wide river  full crossed ships, the city of Thentis and the crossroads of all trade to and from the Sardar, and sometimes also for the North.

     It was not easy to find a place at the docks so we moored in the big Rada and from there the next morning we would leave with a caravan of merchant, already ready to reach the fair.
    After a few days of walking we arrived, and what presented itself to our eyes was something astounding, despite the fair still under construction, hundreds of people came and went through the streets, men
 and free women Kajire and <kajiuris, who were busy preparing the stands.
   We asked the administration for a place to set up our small stand and they pointed us to some, we chose one in front of the large Pysician tent, not very far from the Scribes' tent, we thought it was the right crossroads for citizens willing to read, because many still do not know the second acquaintance, as secretarial clerk I met an old acquaintance the slave Mews, but the principal manager was Sir Gorn, still traveling.
    With the patient and beloved Brjiana we set up the stand, with our banquet and our newsstand, and for the occasion we would have distributed our newspaper for free.

    A few days after the inauguration one evening there was the meeting of the Scribes, the moderator was none other than Sir Robert, I have already told about him, he was head of the Scribes in the city of Olni, even Lady Monica an old acquaintance, was present together to dozens of others, we spoke a little about everything and I raised the question of Magistrate women who could not exist on the planet, there was only a previous Lady Janette, my professor at Campus, so we decided that if a woman was really able to do so, she would become, but not as an interrogation judge because a woman cannot see naked men and against the law.
    The fair still continues, hundreds of people from all over the planet are present and every day Meetings, Tournaments and Slave Dances are organized.                to be continued

 A GREAT ADVENTURE

 

We set out at dawn on a sunny day that was expected to be warmer

than the others.
   Brjiana wanted to follow us in the new adventure, I had received a message from a tribal chief of the interior just outside the Thahari desert, but who was part of my territories, he was asking me for help for some strange disappearances that had been happening from some time in the own village
   As the Emir of the oasis, I was worried, he had never heard of disappearances for no one apparent reason, and that was dangerous enough even for the citizens of my oasis.
   I took with me some trusted guards, not many to tell the truth, I didn't think there could be a great danger out there, and at the oasis I left the first Commander, with me came the captain of the guards, a trustworthy man even if a little stubborn in his interpretations, after having crossed a part of the desert we entered the forest where the village was located, I had forgotten how difficult it was to walk in the forest, I had been living in the desert from time.

 After a few days of traveling in that damned forest, we finally looking smoke rising high into the sky from a high hill, and we were all happy, we will rest and eat something hot after days of walking.
  The head of the village was a large dark-skinned man, furs covered his body, his hair tied behind very long and an unkempt beard, I explain that in recent months many men had disappeared into thin air, without giving more news of them, i was very worried, if it had been the work of the Panthers surely they would have left traces, they like to let people know about their raids, and I don't think  merchants or slaverswould go that far, they could not have sold the slave without documents, and a voluntary removal seemed unlikely to me .
   After studying with the Captain and the Guide, the map of the area, to find a safe route, and start the search, the next day after a restful night, we took some provisions, enough water and began our patrol. towards the afternoon the forest began to thin out, but a thick blanket of fog enveloped the area, that part of the forest was not on any map, until we found ourselves at the foot of a large fence, very high made of large impassable logs, we set up the field and the tents close to a large stone always in sight of the fence even if we were quite covered by any surprises, and we got ready for the night by organizing guards turn.
    The next morning, now awake and ready to inspect the great wall, in the distance we saw a figure slowly approaching, we hid behind the great rock and waited, until we saw a strange warrior dressed in strange bandages that surrounded his body, a very tall and dark skinned man, like some men imported from planet earth, something that had never been seen, not even among the barbarians who

populate the planet.
   I told everyone to stay hiddens and I went out, trying to have a contact with that man who seeing me becamed aggressive, showing a fighting attitude, I unsheathed my scimitar but to my great surprise the man with a superhuman leap I try to to landing myself colliding, in the impact between the two bodies he turned into another, a cloning never seen before, the guards intervened in the fight, who in a short time had the better of killing both, becoming beings of normal as they were in the their village.
   To my amazement I realized that in the impact with that man I had taken his powers, I felt strong and my body changed into an apologetic color very similar to the earth,
   My subjects, Brjiana, and the captain were terrified, I calmed them by saying that everything was over, but that I wanted to use my change to sneak into what looked like a great fortification surely to

protect a village.
  I ordered everyone to remain quiet and hidden, I will bgo come in to take a look, and so it was. I went through the portal made of logs that the man had left approached, what presented itself to my eyes was a stunning thing, the road from the door led to an immense stone building, with a large staircase and men on guard all around.
   The closer I got, the more guards they all seemed the same. as if they were twins, all dressed in bandages that wrapped their crossed bodies, armed with small spears with a strange shape, as if they were torches, I hear the door closing behind me and men who silently approached pushing me towards the great staircase, I went up escorted by two wings of men, silent without expression, as if they were automatons, until I entered that great palace, at the end of the great  hall of men in long white tunics, like those of the Intiate, they were waiting for me, they asked my name and which area of ​​the planet I came from, I explained to them that I was the Emir of the Oasis of the Seven Palms, and that a tribal chief of the forest had asked for my help, they did not seem threatening, and I was enough quiet, what must have been the Chief I take me to a room, where on the walls so many mirrors and small lights flashing like so many fireflies, and in the mirrors, which he told me to be monitors, men and women of every village and city, each if placed in the foreground seemed to be there with us,
He explains to me that they were the elect of the kings and that they controlled  hall, that they experimenting a kind of new planet warrior, faithful and sure fighter, to form a single army of the planet, that's why the disappearances, they took the mans from the villages and cities, they took them underground where they were educated and cloned, with small receivers in the brain to obey orders.
  I could not believe my eyes, I had read in old books about something like that but never that one day I found myself face to face with the elect of the Kings.

   The High Priest, so he said I had to call him, knew very well that he was speaking to a great and valiant Emir, he told me that they were hosting me until the Grand Council had decided what to do.
   On the evening of the following day the Captain, not seeing me return, took a trusted guard with him and ventured to climb the fence, he too entered the great palace with the favor of darkness, and found himself in that great hall surrounded by the guards, the Priest who had seen the man climb the fence and enter the hall, but he recklessly with a feline shot took the High Priest hostage, ordering him to free the Emir and themselves, at that point I who had witnessed the scene, I took part in the action by capturing another Priest, I said to order the men to let us pass, and go away in peace.
  The High Priest i order the guards to let us go, not before making us swear not to reveal the place and location of the Temple, otherwise the KINGS will take revenge on the peoples of the planet.
so it was.
 We returned to the oasis without going through the village, I told Brjiana what I had seen, saying it would be our secret that we will carry within us for life

 

 

 

 WELCOME IN OASIS

/ my throat clears and stands in front of his guests and friends and looks at them each with a smile, raises his senor voice and begins to speak:


Dear Family, Friends and Honored Guests
It is an honor for me to welcome you here to the Seven Palms Oasis and thank you for coming.


Many know me as Darian Arliss, the Magistrate, but few of you know who I really am.
I am Prince Darian El Nairad, son of the great Sheikh Lester El Nairad.


Our city Nairad, in the desert east of Korat, was the victim of a vicious and devious attack by savages, who rushed into the city at night when everyone was asleep and killed everyone.
A nanny saves me and my brother Orlando. I was first taken to the North where I spent 2 years of my life.with Lady Chiara and Sir MIngh, Later adopted by Lady BB and Sir Mith Arliss, who took me to the city of Cartassa where I entered the blue caste and I studied Magistracy.


I lost sight of my brother Orlando for many years, but fate would have it that we found each other again, Orlando, who is older than me, returned years later to the ruins of Nairad and took over the regime and the legacy of our father. he was the legitimate heir.


During my many travels through the countries of this planet I have found this oasis and expanded it, took back my birth name and accepted my new assignments.
Even as an Emir, I remain a Magistrate because this is anchored in my heart, as is my legacy.




Here in the Oasis of Seven Palm Trees we, my beloved Princess Bryjana and I,
we moved the headquarters of our Gorean Moons Gazette publishing house. I thank the gods every day for this love of my life,

Ave El Nairad !!

Family, friends and dear guests, let's celebrate happily, eat, drink and dance, forget our daily worries for a moment, thank the gods and ask for help for peace in the country!

THE EN-KARA FAIR
 

Like every year, in the month of March the beginning of the new year is celebrated, the 20th of Marrzo (barbarian time) and for millennia the En-Kara fair has been organized, in the Sardar, we as the Moon Gazette newspaper, have set  our own little stand, both for sale and to let the people of the planet know the existence of the
newspaper itself.
   Despite the fact that we have been traveling to cities and villages for months to make ourselves known. But this is the most important place, all the cities and villages have their  stall, their representatives, they meet and discuss the new laws and new provisions that the elders, or great Magistrates receive from the Initiates, and they from the Priest Kings. ,
    Lately this planet is also changing, today many new citizens no
longer respect the laws, forgetting even to respect the Caste, sometimes we meet Slaver in some cities who become Ambassadors, or worse still become Magistrates and even Administrators, distorting roles and rules.
 There are no longer many who follow the rules of the role-playing

game, they improvise Mediators, without knowing exactly the meaning and what they should exercise, some do it only to preempt others by imposing their pride, and desire for power.
    The women then upset everything that the books teach, the slaves no longer study, they think only of sex and wear fashionable clothes made by designers, instead of wearing the classic tunic of different colors based on their destination, White for virgins, then  tunic red, the green and the yellow, few now kneel in front of the Masters, and few know the rules of serving at the table or in the Inn, or the art of dance.
   Free women now they improvise Doctors, without respecting the rule of having two children before exercising the profession, other Scribe Chiefs, not respecting what the law of the Planet requires, that is, the Scribes must have a marginal role, as women and have always has been beings inferior to man.
    Lately I happened to meet in a city a woman who improvised

herself as a magistrate, with rather bizarre clothes, who was friend of the Administrator, without having the know of the ''Second Knowledge'', in the millennia of the planet (in 35 books you have never heard and a female Magistrate's ). There have been great women, Warriors, Panthers, some Warriors because they are daughters of Warriors, but none can improvise herself in the role they like best.
     As I said, the fair also serves this purpose, determine new laws to be handed down and written into the laws of the city, it serves to confront each other to trade and make known one's village or city, ... in the next episode I will write about the events and news

PARTY AT THE OASIS

After so many preparations, the big day has finally arrived. Brjiana organized a guided tour of the city for all the guests, even from the distant Hammersgaard, but I was concerned with entertaining and welcoming guests on the large pier.

Sir Jerico the Elder was the first to arrive, immediately after the Countess Irene de Tulle, who arrived from the far North, the ship of the Vikings of Hammersgaard arrived just after sunset the sky was clear and the red of the sun that disappeared into the sea gave a light bronze to the houses of the Oasis.
First the servants and slaves went down to help in the services, then Sir Edu, with Lady Nani, then Sir Erik arrived with his beautiful companion, bringing his Dragon on a leash, who together with the little Dragon, crouched in a corner without giving the slightest annoyance.
Then the ship of Lady Red also arrive, the sister of Lady Chiara, my first mother adopt me when we escaped from Korat, together with sir Ming, lady Red with together with her partner the great Thor, from Thorvsland, they live in their earth  with creating events.

Lady Soraya, she arrive very late, but just in time to participate in the dances that had started in the meantime, Soraya and an old friend of mine from the South, she lived in the Oasis for some time waiting to embark on her journey for the world of dance with his sisters.
    As usual, I gave the welcome speech to everyone, briefly recounting the vicissitudes of my life, from the escape from Korat after the city was attacked and destroyed, with Lady Chiara and her companion  sir Ming, who to tell the truth he was running most of all, but behind the slaves, and so it was that one day she chase away Chiara Me and her slave, to marry a dark-colored slave imported from planet earth, we found refuge in the North in the village of Fjilsborg, and I when I reached the age of development I was sent to study by Scribe, in the city of Olni, where lady Lucy and lady Janette, with the slave Cristha took care of me, making me a good Scribe, Magistrate and Lawyer, then I began my travels first as

Ambassador, then as Cartographer from city to city, going up and down the Vosk, turning the Sardar, going into the Thahari, desert up to the village of Finnur fiord where Lady BB Arliss took a liking to me and adopted me, but I never revealed that I was the son of a Sheikh of the desert, and that on one of my trips I had discovered a deserted Oasis and was slowly building my castle there, for me and my subjects.
 
I was happy to see that everyone was amazed by my story, the only one who never arrived was my brother Orlando who had re-

appropriated the Caliphate of our Father Lester el Nairad, as he was the eldest son, I was very sorry but a commander of a ship told me it was on its way to Sardar for the En-Kara fair that would soon take place.
    The long party takes time and at the end one after the other the
guests left the Oasis leaving me and Brjiana, sitting alone by the sea to admire the three moons of the Planet, happy embraced until morning

THE DAY OF THE JUDGMENT

.... You could feel it in the air
men women children all
glued to the video dazed
how was this possible
dreams, hopes, desires
all over, in a moment,
   He spoke little, he didn't say much
just a word, just a sentence
his expressionless face
the coldness of the ice,
and we astonished to look at it
how could it ever be
how this could happen
yet we lived happy,
we dreamed of the future,
than him in an instant
with a few words he destroyed,
and we astonished to look at it
children roll up their toys
mothers pack
what were their memories, the objects of a life,
enclosed in a suitcase
towards a new horizon
towards freedom, escape death
and he imperative who threatens us
our God and his, with different clothes
and they bless him, they bless his banners
they bless his weapons
and we astonished to watch
