Welcome to Gaia! ::

*smiles* it's fine, not like it'd kill me or anythin. but i'm with you *clicks my bottle with yours* down the hatch

ai, well that's a long story Missy...it dates back way before anyone here was ever born..with the exception of maybe mister dark pants over there

*Damion lets out a sigh* ai, i suppose it wouldn't hurt. Thousands of years ago, around the time...i think you all call it 6000 BC. We didn't even have a name for it. It was dinner time and breakfast time. I was just a naive boy. I was the only one in my family who was unmarried. There was a great battle approchin, I was afraid of what was gonna happen. Then i saw this hermit fellow. He told me that if i did sumthin for him i would be able to see what was gonna happen before it happened. That way i didn't have to be afraid...he asked me to kill a young man...a wee little lad. Not bigger than a boy of 13. * a tear rolls down his cheek* i did what the old man asked, and for it i was granted my wish. Saw the battle ahead of time, i saw my family slaughtered, my friends bodies left out to rot in the sun. I pulled up all the strength within me to stop that vision from hapenin *stands up like a soldier*, but alas. i was defeated,*his face goes sad* the visions kept comin. I couldn't tell what was vision and what was real. I could do nothin to stop them. I was stabbed *he pulls up his shirt showing a large scar in front of his heart* here. I watched helplessly as my vision came true. After the battle i laid there on the battlefield helplessly. the old man came up to me laughin. he told me that that little boy was gonna be the hero of the battle. He was to become the King of Prospering Peace. But alas, i ended his short life. ...The old man told me that i would not die this day, nor any other. Not till my very soul was striped from my flesh or my head removed. I was cursed that day. I was cursed to see every battle, every slaughter, every murder...and be helpless to change them. *his eyes become bright with a fire* but i didnt let my circumstance take the best of me. I tamed my visions and used the to change things..I used my visions to make things new, to remold the world as something new. something better! I hate my curse, but if i must live out this world in such an existence, than i will reap a new light, a new hope. A hope that one day suffering will be abolished, if even for just a single day. That is my penance. I will fight, till i have rid the world of suffering for but a single day.

*Damion smiles* your blood lust can be your greatest ally. It can help you find a cure, or a substitute for the blood. It is all up to you. Never let the circumstances get you down, i've seen many battles. Some i couldn't change the outcome. But in the end, every loss can be a victory in its own way.

*Damion laughs heartily* than it is up to you, and you alone. Your heart will lead the way, no matter who forsakes you, or who you forsake. Your dream will always be yours, no one can take that away from you.

*Damion smiles and winks* and i like a lass who can throw back a few beers with me, we're two of a kind you and me. but fer now, i think i might be needin a little rest, lack of sleep ya know. I'll be back soon though, just you wait.

*Damion takes and kisses the Lass's hand* i'll be seein ya then *smiles as he walks out fer some sleep*

*follows the young women wondering is she will be ok, wonders also if i should ask my wife what i should do* miss do you need any help?
