The History of Our Fantasy Castle


OurCastle

The Castle was the fantasy creation of a Paddles Poster whose nick was 'bj'. He was also occasionally referred to by the handle 'Centurion Biggles'. This later title was bestowed upon him by the Court of Asgard when he assumed responsibility for his charge, Lady kris.

For those of you who may not be overly familiar with mythology, Asgard is to the Norse people as Mount Olympus is to the Greeks.

First recorded mention of Hadrian's Wall and The Ghost Legion was in bj's imaginative poem, The Watch, May 98. In it, he was summoned from his Castle by Tacitus Scipio, a fictitious character, to join the Centurion in a quest to recover Lady kris, who had been captured and potentially abused by the Picts.

Subsequently, in June, the Lady kris, once again, was found among the missing, and her poet lover posted, Lost ,stolen or strayed [reward], an attempt to recover his fair lady by offering a reward of two cases of Pict scotch taken in the initial raid on the Picts in 'The Watch'. Again The Ghost Centurion came to her 'rescue' (sarcasm) in Abduction. There followed an intriguing series of interactive posts which ended with a celebration of her return, in The Great Hall, with the post, Justice & Judgement .

It was at this time that The Ghost and elements of The Ghost Legion took up residence at the poet's Castle, as guests, to provide for it's security. Subsequently, 'the poet' issued an invitation to Lady Isaboe, offering sanctuary and rest from her relentless pursuers in the post, Re: We Irish .. sanctuary and succour. Thereafter, The Castle became a haven for a number of ladies seeking shelter, firmness, and caring from the trials and tribulations that had befallen them in countless posted stories.

For some time peace flowed through the meadows surrounding The Castle Walls, but then in July, tragedy struck. The Lady kris left her beloved bj and The Castle for another Lord and Master. Sadness and gloom overwhelmed the whole kingdom. In the belief that foul play had chanced upon the Lady kris, The Ghost Centurion directed The First Century on a bloody attack, across the moors, on the Master's Cidadel in the post, masters Nightmare , and in story book fashion, they liberated the Lady kris and returned her to The Castle and freedom amidst the good cheer of all those who loved her there.

But alas, it was only temporary. For dissension and misunderstanding played it's ugly hand, and the Lady kris felt compelled once again to travel to foreign lands. Our noble host was wrought with despair and depression. Try as they might, with all love and caring that was within them, the court ladies, notably Lady tessa and Lady Red, could not console their broken hearted poet. Driven by his passion and grief for his lost beloved, bj consigned himself to the monastics and set out in search of her soul.

Having deserted his fantasy castle, the full weight of administration fell upon it's guardian, The Ghost Centurion. Upon assuming his duties, he promply employed the services of that renowned educator, Sir Darryl, for the position of Headmaster.
