@winter-rose So small a thing that we should suffer so much fear and doubt…*melts the One Ring*

@graciegirl Where is the valor of the men of Gondor? Where is the strength of the elves? Where is the courtesy of dwarves? The Ring will corrupt all.
😛 Have fun with wherever you go!

@graciegirl @winter-rose But are you sure you do not suffer needlessly. It should be mine! Give it to me!

@graciegirl @winter-rose Three companions. You will be called the Triplet of the Pen. May the wisdom of elves, men, dwarves and halflings be with you. *LOTR soundtrack plays*

@winter-rose @graciegirl You have my sword! Er…pen.

Whew! I lost track of time! (That’s a good thing if you’re writing, though.) 🙂 Good for you, @winter-rose . 😀

Bye @dragon-snapper ! Maybe I’ll be back around tonight. 🙂

I finished writing a draft of my personal testimony which is long enough to be my life story. I think I’m going to have to trim it down a mite. 😉

@overcomer @winter-rose Yes, and tigers! I’m going to go for a few minutes now, but I’ll be back later on today.

I’m going to write for another 40 minutes, @winter-rose @dragon-snapper , so I’ll be around for a while. 🙂

@Northerner all right, I see. Yes, we’re talking fantasy, and as I believe fantasy is only a representation of the reality of truth (to us; in our world) and that it should be a copy of our world in its moral laws and ruling powers (as those are what determine truth) I don’t necessarily like it when a fantasy world is governed by rules/laws whose…[Read more]

@Northerner you seemed to imply that as long as a witch was using her power for good (even if it was the same power a bad witch had) then the magic was good. Perhaps I misunderstood you?

Whoohoo! 😀 *misses fist bump and looks ridiculous* For Narnia! 😉 @winter-rose @dragon-snapper

Whoohoo!:D *misses fist bump and looks ridiculous* For Narnia! 😉 @winter-rose @dragon-snapper

@Northerner I see your point… but I think the correctness of the moral foundation is more important than what the power’s used for. God may allow Darkness (how else would it still even exist? But that’s another discussion) but He does NOT condone it, and by its very definition it cannot be used for good. Out of the heart the mouth speaks. A…[Read more]

@overcomer @winter-rose For Narnia!

I’ll join you, @winter-rose ! 🙂

@kate-flournoy Gotcha. Thanks again! 😛
Okay then. Definitely the Mentor, and maybe the Evil King (if that exists).
@aratrea

@kate-flournoy Gotcha. Thanks again! 😛
Okay then. Definitely the Mentor, and maybe the Evil King (if that exists). Huh…I’d even say all of them but I think that the episode would end up being an hour long then. 😛
@aratrea

@Dragon-Snapper *bows* Any time… XD

Yeah, no, I get your point. And I definitely agree it shouldn’t be treated as ‘just another story element’. Just as being a prophet in the Old Testament was a grave responsibility and a mark of high honor from God, anyone entrusted with any sort of supernatural gift should not just ‘go whacko’ with it. 😉

@Dragon-Snapper an archetype is basically the typical role any given character fulfills. Mentor. Hero. Dark Lord. A slot for a character that doesn’t really depend that much on the character himself, but what part the character plays in the story.

*takes back two cents*
@kate-flournoy Ah, okay. I have not read the Silmarillion yet, though I see that it would make a difference. 😀 I do think that it is important how magic is portrayed, but my book went a little whacko with it. 😛 Thanks for clarifying that.
