My Beginning

Postby Maker » Sat Sep 17, 2011 5:44 am

"In my earliest memories I was nothing. I was simply a thought. An idea, given life by, what I will forever refer to as, the Maker. He has given me form and he has given me purpose."

"Build, my child. Explore and know the world for I have given you what I cannot give myself."

"And so I climb this ladder into the world beyond, and I am greeted by a great forest."



Hello everyone. I am new here and I hope you don't mind my little story introduction there. I felt inspired to write down a story of my Hearthling's life and I hope I am allowed to do so here. If I am not I will write no more of it.

Go for it~
Generally these are well appreciated as long as they're not in the manner of "lol found some grass today, wonder if I can smoke it LOLOLOLOL." Best of luck on your adventure and always remember the Bay12 motto of 'Losing Is Fun.'

Sorry for the long delay. I had to take care of some business in the real world and I just now got some time to myself... now where was I? Ah yes.

"Upon taking my first steps into this strange new world I am greeted by a skeleton couple. Could this be an omen from the Maker? What could this bizarre symbolism mean? Thoughts of my own mortality began racing through my mind. Surely if I should fall here would anyone even remember me? I vowed at that moment to make a name for myself. I will make myself known. I will be somebody."

Image

"I set out to the southeast, determined to find someone, something, so that I could make myself known. After a few minutes of travel I come across a land-bridge, and something just so happened to be there waiting for me. From out of the underbrush of the fir trees a wild boar attacked. I quickly made a break for the water, hoping for a temporary reprieve from my assailant so that I could think of a strategy to escape this cunning beast. Whether it was divine intervention from the Maker himself or just luck, a hunter came up the river in a rowboat and asked if I needed help.

He jumped out of his boat and made short work of the boar and offered the corpse to me. I was extremely grateful for his timely arrival and gladly accepted his offering. As quickly as he arrived, the hunter picked up his boat and rowed off into the distance. I didn't even know his name, nor did he mine. It was an unspoken gesture of kindness that I would never forget."

Image

"As the day quickly disappeared over the horizon I decided to set up camp for the night. With a belly full of roasted boar and a nice spruce bed to sleep in, sleep came easily. As I lay back and gaze up at the stars, I think to myself, "What a wonderful world."

I'm afraid I don't even know myself. We never exchanged pleasantries but I'm sure if he visits this forum he will recognize himself and perhaps say something.
