Kevin's Watch

I'm struggling to remember the deal with what was called what.

If my memory serves sufficiently, Bareisle was a tiny rocky outcrop in almost the middle of nowhere, which basically signalled that the bigger island was not far away.

Then there were naughty reefs, and then there was the actual island where Elemesnedene was secreted.

Into that Island, there was basically a fjord, and I think the overlooking ridgetops were called Cravenhaw (?). The fjord made a left turn, and then there was a beautiful beach.

From the beach, following a stream, we enter a wood, and then out into a meadow ... the 'maidan'(?)

Continuing to follow the stream and you hit a mound of some garbage that surrounded the spring from whence emitted the stream.

The spray of the spring more or less served as the portal into Elemesnedene.

Now, firstly, is that all correct?

Secondly, what was the name of the actual island with the ridges and the beach and the woods and the maidan, etc?

Anyone?

NO not at all! I have gone to great lenghts to prove that this is NOT the case-and YOU need to go to great lenghts to check out similar threads. I will bump like mad 4 you.! (DON'T get cheeky!)

Ooh, I'm on the edge of my seat!

Landwaster sits at attention, panting and slavering ... go go gadget danlo!!!

I'm suddenly starting to remember that you may have said once before how the Land of the Elohim was not necessarily an island at all, and that in fact it was never said at any time anything about it being an island. Maybe that's what you're getting at!

well read my bumped post in "Boundaries of Earthpower"--even YOU agreed it wasn't an Island. You should remember what YOU posted--Mr post-too-much

lololol! yep I even started the thread!

Ok so your point is that the Land of the Elohim is probably not an island! Got that now!

But do you know if that land had a name?

Ok so whatchah reckon? Bareisle?

And here we go, the entrance fjord to the Land of the Elohim!



( please ignore the ferry I half-paintbrushed out )

By the way, danlo ... you were waxing fanciful in that other, bumped, thread, how you envisaged the Elohim Land as perhaps being sort of geographically comparable to Europe, Braithairealm to Africa, and Home to maybe Scandinavia, right?

Well that fjord (above) that I got the photo from is in Norway, in a region that translates to "Giantland" ... how about that!?!

Yes and I suppose the boat you were trying to wipe out is called the Ferry-Elohim? (saw that coming a mile away, eh--hey that's almost as bad as one of Cjr's puns!)

A number of bad puns about the ferry come to mind, but I'm going to refrain.

I think though, that the trees are out of place in the picture as well.... It is called Bareisle.

Trees? I thought that was algae...

i thought landwaster sneezed on the photo... my bad!

Those aren't trees, that actual island is a rock only about 40 feet wide.

Here! Get your hands off of Rockall!!! That's ours!!!

ohh it looks like a lovely place to build a holiday retreat...nice high diving board, deep sea fishing off the balcony, maybe even a winding waterslide down to the bottom

jedi ... its a rock ... get over it ...

(it doesn't even look like a duck)

Another question, the points of land either side of the inlet to Braithairian Harbor are called 'The Teeth', right?
