Words thoughts seeing perhaps .....................

By being so we start to understand man and their habits. The ways and reasons. For their reactions and ways of doing things.



Thus applying the perspective theory to our own lives where be why man hunts and kills us why he despises us. We are large and wise. Unknown to him. We are the mystery And that which man doesn’t understand and scares him he destroys that which he wants.



That last statement is very true. For when man wants he destroys to attain it. Many wise and… Continue

A story told twice then words of thoughts

Here is one story on how a man became one of our clansmen. Taken from her journal when traveling amongst them.



I sat upon a stool at a County Fair. I was posing as a “psychic” reader of cards and crystal balls. My tent was small and I had put little into it to attract attention to myself. Only a small sign stating what I was doing and a Full sized mirror which I had put the words upon the Frame in several languages. “To See your true self Look at yourself” which means little to any… Continue

Already the questions and answers of numbers have been stated as:



Is there Just one?

Thus isn’t a third required for… Continue

The 100 point draconity corruption test

version 1.0 by alpine@holly.colostate.edu - copy and distribute freely



This test rates your relative draconity. The majority of these 100 questions assume that you are human (at least most of the time), have a draconic name, and have at least heard of dragons at some point in your life. So you won't have to wade through lots of questions asking if you've ever read a book on a dragon, seen a dragon picture,… Continue

Gone.... 7/17/95





I reach for you

only to find an empty space

where once you laid.

You had to go

I know, but still the pain

cries on in vain.

A calling of your heart,

quest of life and purpose.

Peasant by birth, Noble by heart.

Duty and Honor are your keys

not the likes of me.

I loved you true,

but free you had to be.

Maybe someday

you’ll come back to me.

I’ll honor our love,

true and… Continue

Wolfencat:

Sitting on the mountain top a lone grey and brown wolf cries at the silver sliver moon. The mist rises from the ground covering the wolf until only the brown shimmering eyes are seen. The cry echoes through the valley remaining unanswered. The wolf tracks can not be seen on the dew dipped leaves scattered on the forest floor. A crackling of tree branches enters the scene. The wolf crouches in the thicket unseen. A black dragon walks slowly by the wolf. He stops turning to the wolf. Machlene why… Continue

Upon the Blue Moon:

Once upon a time, a blue moon light night,m a cry could be heard. A child cried for all hope was gone. Confused and bewildered the child cried a wolf-life cry. Those whom she had been born to had turned their backs and gave the child up for lost. The child could feel the emotions of others and displayed what adults feared to show. On this night the child had seen the haunting eyes of amber daggers called Night Star. The pain and anguish she felt from it was startling and frightened her. She… Continue

Inquest

With in the days of old this same happened time and time again. And it apparently still goes on today within a group which denounces the actions of the past. Actions of falsely judged, Actions of not allowing one to defend themselves. Useing a minority vote instead of a true majority. Or using proxies votes. And now an action of one has been turned into a mockery of truth and over dealt with as things are done so over and over again. Below is stated the older way to deal with such and… Continue

A question to show teach have hold

And now I am approached by close to set the strands of time and space with one’s grasp. I have been asked to show and become once again. To Come back from the shadowing and recross into the area of the world for all to know. To be for both what one should be. To share the time for one needs are great. To start once again, to do what must be done. To allow the touch of a teacher and learner to pass through my path and cross over others. To become what was and yet something that wasn’t. To use… Continue

A starting

So in today we go to a variation close but acceptable:



We first take for instance a young person in question who has dabbled, experienced, “lived” this style and we are approached to take them on and show them the older/other perspective. Thus a request of a letter by their benefactors is required. Asking and somewhat detailing what is expected of what has been asked concerning the young person in questions training. Certain conditions are required:



All persons party to… Continue

Vixin's tale and anothers as well

Slowly I remember that not all things are to be left to chance. Nor to the elements and or powers to be. That is why I sit here upon this beach waiting to see this little one’s eyes open to ensure that she is aware of the life that still ebbs within her. The night was unkind for her skill of boating and if it wasn’t for the playing within the storm’s upper limits I was entangling myself with, she would now rest at the feet of which ever god she reveres.

The light of the mast strike was… Continue

Offering of Clan

Offered to the one cared for and about:



By her hand:



For I have not the power or desire to control nor decide your life or style of living for you. But yet the time of decision has come upon you. The amulet I have allows me to claim Wolf and/or Cat Clansman ship.

Though, I am not empowered to grant you the lineage of that time, I am empowered to sponsor you to the ones whom can give the right to claim Cat clan for your holding and ways of life. For I can only give you… Continue

This Moment...

I have only this moment to give for I know not what the next shall bring.

Tomorrow never comes but this moment is real. I give to you this moment for all to come. I know it is difficult to see the rainbow in the blackened clouds, but it is still there. You have been more than a lover, you have been more than a comrade, you have been these but also much more, you have been a best friend, a big brother, father, mother, doctor, pal, and too many others to mention. You've been there even when… Continue

A calling

Because of the ones cared for and about, because of the ones that already are I’ve been petitioned with permission to make another wolves clan sister, another sister to the clan of the wolves and cat clan brother. This comes from the most recent addition of clan wolf and clan cat. My friend Wolfencat. They have other things to petition also, other items, other ideas, other wants and needs. And yet, we don’t know if any of them will be addressed at this time. There is a lot to fill out, lot to… Continue

To put one to help

Each before existing with in this idea must present a letter of introduction one from the faction wanting to enter and one from a faction asking if they may. Both being given at the same time to the chancel to be seen and decided on the action.

A shield then is made and sent to the joining faction showing the… Continue

Teaching is reminding others

Your only

impossible, but the

Maker

The Maker, at Creation's birth,

With living things had stocked the earth.

From elephants to bats and snails,

They all were good, for all were males.

But when the Devil came and saw

He said: "By Thine eternal law

Of growth, maturity, decay,

These all must quickly pass away

And leave untenanted the earth

Unless Thou dost establish birth" --

Then tucked his head beneath his wing

To laugh -- he had no sleeve -- the thing

With deviltry did… Continue

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
