Originally this quote was intended for HerenIstarion ;)

Ah, cute idea! The first word was a stumper, that's for sure! Makes me want to try a really hard one just for you... ;)

http://www.travar.de/Templates/Webpr...mages/idea.gif It's from Mythopoeia:

Blessed are the legend-makers with their rhyme
of things not found within recorded time.

Beautiful words!

Estelyn Telcontar 06-06-2006 09:29 AM

Yes! I knew you're familiar with that work, since your sig quote comes from it. Your turn...

Guinevere 06-06-2006 09:41 AM

:) Thank you!

Estelyn Telcontar 06-07-2006 04:20 AM

Defying my usual pattern of consonants first, I'll ask for a vowel this time: E, please.

Guinevere 06-07-2006 08:43 AM

Not many E's, I'm afraid...

Shades of Jonah and the whale! It's Psamathos, speaking to Roverandom as he is about to board Uin, his transportation seawards:
Quote:

'Walk in!' said Psamathos; 'and be quick about it! And don't bite or scratch about inside; you might give Uin a cough, and that you would find uncomfy.'

Guinevere 06-13-2006 01:22 PM

Yes, exactly!
I found the "uncomfy" endearingly childish... ;)

Estelyn Telcontar 06-15-2006 03:44 AM

Yes, that is a cute word! Here's a new one; I'll explain my thoughts afterwards, if you don't get the reference:
Quote:

------- -- --- -----, ------- -- - ------_----, ---- --- ----- ------?

Judging by your picture, you are really a fan, Esty!http://www.world-of-smilies.com/html...t/Kopfball.gif I gathered that Germany was victorious again yesterday...
