Today i'ts been a special one on my life. I've reached the age of ancient human (level 6 human), the 2nd oldest rank (no one has achieved the first one yet).

I went to the Temple of the Ages to check if I was able to reach the title, and while going I found another unknown face training at the training tower.

I told Heinrich that if he wanted to improve his strength he should try hitting the dummies with a mace (which allows to get to 100 str) or forget his punching skills (hand-to-hand combat) and try hitting birds or some other small animal (with no knowledge in hand-to-hand you get stronger but don't kill the animal).

Afterwards, I went back to Adoys' tower.

It's curious that I'm older, but at the same time I feel stronger and more powerful...

Today I had a wedding.

I was reading some ancient books about magic and alchemy, when Radagast came into the library and said "hey! today our young friend Dreus will marry Isyl!"

So... I took my old Nazgul robe, one of my own made blackrock armors (sturdy, black armors, not as good as agapite ones but I love black color), one of my black sticks, and went to the forest for my "special" wedding gift, a wood log.

I always give a wood log in weddings. It's like a symbol of what I represent, someone who works in the forests, who crafts the wood, and maybe as old as the logs I give as presents...

We waited until all people came...

Rostungard directed the ceremony.

And after it finished, I gave my congratulations to the married ones, and went away to Adoys' tower.

I'm old for these parties...

At last I got my internet connection back! So expect updates frequently, as it was before "the incident".

Some time ago when I died and resurrected as a god (a so called GM or GameMaster), I did lot of things. Most of them were known by some or all the people of this lands, other were more intangible, like a ghost, could not be seen but they were there.

But, even as an inmortal I kept my "mortal" feelings, and I fell in love with a mortal, an elf called Irian (Elfs are inmortal speaking of life longevity, but can die for example in combat).

I will not talk about the story because those are personal feelings, emotions and thoughts, but I can say we got married.

It was one of the few "special weddings" that have been made. A god marrying a mere mortal.

The father of all gods, GM Rohan, accepted to direct the wedding, and it took place in the new house I was building so that we could live more or less like a normal marriage (with some limitations, like I was the only one who could went upstairs because the second floor was my storage place for GM stuff).

The house was in the middle of nowhere, only available to Irian with a special item which would teleport here to the house. To go back, the house had a magical teleport which lead to her house.

The wedding took place at the house, and only one another mortal was invited and allowed to come, Adoys the great and old mage.

The wedding finished, and we both were given our wedding rings, which I still keep despite being again mortal, as the only trace of my inmortal past.

So... here's one of the secret myths that was "known" by some people but no one could prove it to be true.

Maybe some other time I'll talk about other things like this... but it gets hard to remember, as I'm getting older...

Today I decided to go for a walk somewhere, to catch some fresh air.

I killed some nagaroth monks on my way to the west, and continued througth a forest, until I reached a fisherman's house.

I spoke with the man, and he told me I was in a little encampment of foresters and farmers.

After having a look around the small village, I headed for what appeared the headquarters.

Inside, I found a strange looking woman... She appeared... more like a pirate than a forester.

I carefully spoke with her, not letting her know my doubts about her nature, and politely went out of the house.

The rest of the people seem very normal, but that girl... is hiding something.
