Here is a thread where people can post their works of literature.
This is a positive area, and I know neither KuKulzA or I will tolerate any disrespect to any person, or work of lit. posted here.
Constructive critism is allowed, to an extent.

The Hear of Nothing: Birth of Argonia
Come councilmen, citizens, children, and other pseudo-slaves of the Heart. Sit by the ground, and heed my words.

Secondly, came a drip. With this drip the sand fell and from it birth water, for thirsty spirits. His brothers could flee from the There to the Here. they swam, and thanked him. but there swim could not be interrupted. In the waters swam a [undoubtedly holy] virus. It infected their breath, and they were mad with it. Drip took names, mostly Drui-Osh.

Oh, and firstly, was the Here and the There. forget this not, for beyond our Heart so full of worthlessness and emptiness is they [even though these places are gone and collapsed.] their mingling of leaves formed our Sacred Roots. I speak of course of the HistinFather, Hitasa. Hitasa beeth not the soul of Here, but a very good imitation of it.

Back to my original story. A holy monster saw the brothers [and their acknowledged selves] and said to their maddened ears, "You all! I see your blight! Your sickness can be cured [he meant elongated] with me! I am Sholokazz, and my soul is your poison. If we manifest it, between our fatherlands, you all will be satisfied." He spoke of the Heart of Nothing! NOTHING!

Then came the Ney-Sayer and the True-holder. the True-Holder birthed his sister and she was happy. But the True-Holder [Xahios] surely couldn't have done this intentionally, his love for his cure rove him to throw from his mouth the necessities of the universe, after all.

they cried, and laughed, and bowed, as is their nature. They agreed and disagreed and ignored him, all at once. Poor Sholokazz was so confused, he forgot his intent. With one hand Drui-Osh ripped his skin and made of it Yoni and Yodi, the greedballs, and took his poison and made from it Yrurhthitelnomururur. With his other hand, he turned the other cheek. with his other hand, he made love to Sholokazz swiftly and boldly. By the time this dance was over the Heart of Nothing bore witness to all sitters of the Arubal. Then came Shygra, holy Father of Freedom, who taught us to be free is to differ. By this, the Hist told us how to be.

They told us who to revere, who to hate, and who to resurect. It is a duty of us all to bring back our Nothing Father, and return the Arubal to its cycle [by example of the path the First Places laid out, plainly and simply for US.] . We focus merely on those most viewable from our faint patience. these are:

The Sun of Nothing/the Shadow of Here [Sugam and Nakattte]
The Drip/The Fall [Drui-Osh and Sholokazz]
The Father of Freedom/The Masternal [Shygra and Gogla]
The TreeFather/The Earthbone [Hitasa and Ee-Fahk]
The Ney-Sayer/The True-Holder [Xahios and Hemliza]

the story does not end, because we all are a part of it. We all need birth, gender aside. We will follow the holy participation we call Morafa, which drives us all. When this is done, we can transcend, and rejoin our origins among the moons.

On the Defense of Trade Caravans
By Holfgur Red-Beard

There are many riches to be made through trade in Tamriel today, but nowhere more so than Argonia. This land of inhospitable marshes, mangrove and dense forests is difficult to navigate through, and its difficulties are today heightened by the roaming bandits and highwaymen who attack or raid the caravans passing through. This short book shall attempt to shed light on the best methods of defending a caravan. As a veteran mercenary myself, I am fully aware of the dangers one is likely to encounter as a hired guard.

Lesson 1) Always have several sentries on watch. Caravans which are left undefended at night are most at risk of being attacked. Khajiit are particularly suited to this task due to their excellent night vision, but failing that, a good Dunmer marksman will do.

Lesson 2) Send regular advance parties to check for ambushes. Argonians are well known for their cunning traps in difficult sections of track, and they are also known to intentionally sabotage the road to slow the caravans. Having advance warnings of difficulties ahead is invaluabe to an experienced caravan escort.

Lesson 3) Ensure that all sides of the caravan are guarded. Approximately one third of the escort should guard the front, another third the rear, and another the sides. This is due to the reliance of the Argonians on quick assaults from the rear, and the highway gangs who generally confront a caravan at the front.

Lesson 4) NEVER pay a highwayman the money he demands. Argonia is notorious for its dishonourable bandits, and have even been known to use highwaymen as a distraction to attack another section of the caravan.

Lesson 5) Finally, be always on your guard.

Escorting a caravan is dangerous, but if you are handy with a blade and follow these guidelines, then you stand a better chance than most.

Cool, it reminds me of upper Russia.
It is said that Russia holds more Natural resources than anywhere else, but it is un-navigable to get to them.

Great work! :goodjob:
