Chapter 75
[MEMBERSONLY] [NOCOPY]

Greetings, Readers, Comrades and Silent Visitors!
Or in the Arhasian Way: RABBA VE, Everyone!!!

You are now entering the land of Arhasia. Well, more specifically to speak, a certain Inn in the land of Arhasia.
If you are new to this place and fear you may get lost, I suggest you carry a map of Arhasia for it may come in handy since the path you travel is unknown.

Since you may need to stay for a while, its best you make an order of one of your favorite beverages at the counter of the InnKeeper. He is a kind one and will take an instant liking to any who come to the Inn for the sake of the Storyteller.

The Storyteller. That's what they call me. It was a name I chanced upon to own. I do not know if it was mere coincidence or if it was decided, but on one of my dazed trips to this mysterious land of Arhasia, I got acquainted with this Lady who donned a Dark Hood. I have never seen her face, not even now do I know what she looks like, for it is always in the shadow of her long hood. But her voice and her tale are equally intriguing and linger in my mind even when I am far from her and I keep coming back to hear more.
She reads out to me a chapter or two from a huge book of hers that is writ in a most strange language. After reading out to me a little, she hands me a scroll and she expects me to tell this tale of hers to those she names in it.

When I am willing to narrate and have the strength and time to do it, I send pigeons to convey the message to those named in the parchment telling them that it's time to come visit me at the Inn to hear my narration of the Tale.

And then we gather around the fireplace, sipping our warm drinks offered by our kind InnKeeper, and delve into the tale that is the soul of Arhasia. The Legend of Arhasia, one could call it.

(Oh, and the Inn is not to be found in the Map. Only those whom the Lady in the Dark Hood chooses will find themselves at the doorstep of our Inn.)
It has been a wonderful adventure: the frequent meetings with the Dark Lady and then the gatherings with my dear listeners at the Inn. 138 chapters have made their place in our hearts and we gather again at the Inn to hear more of the unfolding mysteries.

God, the One Who Gifts me the Word and the Thought to Create this Tale and the Heart to Love all my Readers...

My Family, whom I love dearly but whose ignorance of my love for the show and the Forum has made me find the Door of Opportunity opened to share my Gift of Writing with those who seek to see it...

IPKKND and the Forum becoz without their presence in my life, this FF would not have been born and Arhasia would not have existed...

Aura who was the reason I braved my silence and made myself exist in the Forum...
My Beloved Comrades...

And finally, to all my dear readers, silent visitors and likers, and lovers of Arhasia!
So come, my dears, I have a tale to tell. A tale to touch your Heart with...

And I call it ...

Since I despise spamming and hence do not reply to comments on the FF Thread itself unless I am updating, you can always catch me up (if I am logged in) at the Cottage Near the Inn which Farwa and Kushipugly manages. Every lover of this tale and admirer of Arhasia is welcome there and the air in the Cottage is always warm, cozy and friendly. All questions and suggestions can be asked there over a cup of your favorite beverage, too. Come to the Cottage if you want to: Don't just love Arhasia, BELONG to it...!!!
