Where Would You Go?

Post by duchess of malfi »

This is an offshoot of a discussion we have been having over at Endless Shadows. If you could go to any famous world/s in a fantasy or science fiction series (Narnia, Middle Earth, Amber, Hyperion, Neverness, the Land, etc.) which one would you pick?? :)


I think I'd go to Middle-Earth myself, just to hear the elves singing. :)

Lyra's world from His Dark Materials, to find my daemon... But that's just a spontaneous pick.

This depends on a lot of things. If I was just going as a tourist I think I would probably want to visit Minas Tirith or Revelstone.

But if you are asking what kind of fantasy world I would like to visit if I had some kind of ability to work magic there like a talent for earthpower or whatever I might have wanted to go to Mordant to develop the art of Imagery.

The world of the Land. I'd go and fight with the Haruchai. :)

I'd also go to the Land's world. Has there ever been a character luckier than Thomas Covenant? He got to explore the most extraordinary world in the company of Haruchai and Giants!! The most passionate races of people in the most wonder-filled world!

I would also like to visit the Land of course. But I would much rather go to a place where I felt I had something to contribute, and quite frankly I do not think that I would fit in all that well in the land. :)

Although...
*sigh*
To live on the island of Gont, in the old mage's house on the cliff in Re Albi. And maybe there I would learn at last what no act or art or power can teach me, what I have never learned.

Of course, I'd go visit the Master Patterner in the Immanent Grove on occasion. Who else can you sit with silently, but communicate so much?

I would like 2 walk the beaches of Division City on the planet Cordiality in Frank Herbert's Whipping Star. Talk with the Taprisiots and commune, somehow, w/an S'eye.

I'd still go to the world of the Land. I'd fight with the Haruchai, and sing with the Giants, and take over Bhratharealm, and meet Brinn the Gaurdian, and I'd play with those ice-creatures (can't remember the name).

I went to try to find that word, and I discovered the pixies had struck AGAIN!!! If anyone knows what pixies dislike, that might make them leave, please tell me. :( I hate to think of what they might be doing.

While I would love to go Middle-Earth to meet the elves and hear them sing, I would also love to go to Andelain and take a nice long mud-bath in some hurtloam and get rid of my asthma. :D
What to do? Where to go? :?
Actually, I'd miss my kids too much to go anywhere for any real length of time. :wink:
Love as thou wilt.

Its a toss-up between Middle Earth and The Land for me as well. Two of my fave fantasy places are Andelain and Rivendell. If push came to shove I`d probably choose Andelain.
