The story of Vaitlin begins

Well our online story has started....my beginning: The Cliff



Looking over the enormous sea with waves that would swallow everyting, Vaitlin stood on the highest cliff looking at the far horizon. Seagulls flying close towards him, as if they wanted him to join them and spread his wings. ‘Choose the open air, an endlessly flight through these cloudened skies’. Slowly he reached for his face to discover a single tear, a pearl shining in the appearing sun. Was it a tear of sadness or a tear of happiness, Vaitlin wasn’t sure. Why did he came all the way up here, to this lonely cliff with nothing more than some lousy fighting birds. The wind was pushing and pulling so hard he had to be careful he wouldn’t fall into the deep and endless sea. Or did he come here to jump and end his life without leaving a single trace? Vaitlin shook his head and whispered to the dark sea ‘why did I came here, what happened, what will happen’. At that moment he screamed like the world was coming to his end. Something inside woke him up from some kind of trance and pulled him away from the cliff. Slowly walking away from this place where everything could have ended, everything begins while Vaitlin took his first step towards his new journey.

Online story at fansquare



Together with some friends we created an online forum, fansquare. We are looking for more writers! At least once in three days every person has to post a part (10-50 sentences) of the story, you have to create your own story. Every writer creates his/her own character and let it start somewhere in this fantasy world. For example in the woods, cliff or dungeon.

In the beginning it will be very new and wil lbe under construction for a while. We don't know yet what the entire world will look like, what are the distances between places and when you travel you experience travelling time. But don't let it hold you back... first start with the story of your character. After a while your character can meet one of he other authors, so you can travel together and write for that other person too..

Well do you like to write and wanna experience some magical adventures...join us now and register at: http://z6.invisionfree.com/FanSquare/index.php (you have to copy this link and paste it in a new window due to the fact that this link doesn't work on my blog)

Koi Kaze (love wind)



I watched the Japanese anime 'Koi Kaze' on youtube, so i have only seen it in a small frame. I want to mention this because it's possible that much of the emotion and beauty is gone when you watch it not in the complete screen version.
Koi Kaze is an anime of 12 episodes which deals about a very difficult subject, many even think it's very controversial and sick to watch. It deals about the love of a bother (30) and sister (15). And le me tell you one thing clear... we talk about true love here.
I know when people know this, many don't wanna see the series but I can only advice you the opposite thing: You have to watch this one!! The style of this anime is a bit simple and that makes it even more interesting. This anime is about the inner feelings of a man who falls in love with a girl, first he doesn't even know it's his sister cause their parents got divorced long ago. He feels bad about himself and doesn't know what to do, will she fall in love with him too? It's the story of very very sad feelings. In one way this anime absorbs you into it's story and it will make you feel a bit sad too.
I read somewhere you had to take care you won't loose sleep after watching it, and I think it's pretty right. The images and dark dark emotions and sadness could cause pretty depressive thoughts, but.....in another way it makes you wanna look episode after episode. This anime is will give you a weird experience and I still don't know what to think of it. One thing is clear to me... it's worth the try! The music is great too.
Well...this anime will only be loved by a very very small group of people.

The kite



I have to hold on tightly to the line of the kite,
The wind tries to blow the kite out of sight.
even if it's so far away and difficult to see,
I feel the tension of the line, I feel it pulls me to where it flies.

I want to follow it,
I want to embrace every danger there will be,
this kite I just won't loose,
It means to much to me.



The line is endless long,
it won't be easy to hold on,
But i have my entire life to find it again,
And I will, of that I'm sure.

It represents my biggest dream,
this dream I won't let go.
Months or years will eventually pass,
but in the end i will pull the kite to my arms again.



I travelled the world to look for wonders,
the mermaid showed me just one thing.
The stories and magic I know form your eyes,
will always burn bright in my heart.
