Trevor did more in a sentence than others could with 1,000 words
One of the world's greatest writers has passed away - William Trevor, born in Cork, master of the short story.
Trevor was a professional writer who liked to keep a low profile. He was a person who would rather listen and write than talk about his work.
He wrote instinctively with material he would often acquire by listening to public banter.

Dear Fairfax Volleyball Club Members,
If you participate or have recently participated in any Fairfax Volleyball Club (FVC) activity (including leagues, tournaments, clinics, open play, etc.) then you are considered a member of our club. Feedback from our members continues to be a key component in the operations and decision making process for us. In the past, feedback has been obtained through conversations, then emails and most recently through electronic surveys. In addition to surveys, there is the realization that our members vote with their feet, for better or worse. At the end of 2013 we conducted a member survey regarding the benefits versus the costs of having paid USA Volleyball (USAV) certified referees for league play. This was one element of several that we have been considering in an effort to control our league costs. In addition to specific questions, we used this opportunity to gather open-ended comments. We would like to take this opportunity to not only to share the results of the survey, but also address some of the comments we received. Perhaps the best way to do this is to provide a brief history of the Fairfax Volleyball Club which will give you, the member, a better understanding of how we got to where we are today. It will also familiarize you with some of the challenges we have overcome and some that we are still facing.
Since Fairfax Volleyball Club's founding in 1979, our organization's purpose has remained the same; the promotion of the sport of volleyball in Northern Virginia. There are several means in which we accomplish this. The largest by far and the one you are most likely familiar with is the facilitation of adult league play. A vast majority of our resources are dedicated to constantly maintaining and when possible, improving our member's league experience. Over the past ten years this has been increasingly difficult with two areas in particular, court space and referees.
Until 2005, all court space consisted of school gyms acquired through Fairfax County. Each year there are an increasing number of organizations competing for a dwindling amount of available gym space. This is particularly problematic for a volleyball organization since there are only a handful of available gyms in the county suitable for playing volleyball. For these select gyms we have made investments by installing floor sleeves and net systems which we store at schools but own and are responsible for the up keep of. For those who participate in leagues utilizing the county school gyms, you know firsthand how difficult it is to obtain consistent gym times. It is important to understand that we do not receive all of the gym space we apply for and we do not always receive the gyms we request. We are at the mercy of the county. Some gyms are not available for most of December and some leagues we cannot offer in the spring because the gyms are used for SOL testing. Add unplanned gym/school closings into the mix and you end up with varied start dates, inconsistent finish dates and erratic week to week play dates that are beyond our control.
Early in the 2000's we realized we had reached max capacity based on Fairfax County school gym availability and searched Northern Virginia for alternative gym sources. In 2005, we signed a five-year contract with Dulles Sportsplex in Sterling, Virginia. With the inauguration of the new space, we saw a rapid increase in the number of teams that we were servicing and very quickly reached max capacity in this facility as well. With this in mind, in 2008 we signed a contract with Virginia Volleyball Center (VVC), also in Sterling, Virginia to keep up with league demand and planning for additional growth. These were expensive and risky investments since we were obligated to purchase the contracted court hours in advance. We reached our peak number of teams in 2010 without reaching max capacity. Since then, we have seen a steady decline in the number of teams signing up for leagues. So in late 2013 it was decided to let our contract with Dulles Sportplex lapse and consolidate all of the Fairfax West leagues to the VVC. Court rental continues to be our largest expense. But without it, we would not be able to support our leagues, especially with the decreasing availability of county gym space.
We have always felt that providing USAV certified referees is a key element that separates our leagues from most other leagues in the region. However, certified referees are our second largest expense. In the past year we have taken a particularly hard look at whether the value of paying for certified referees is worth the additional cost of the league. Last year we started a reverse coed fours league and used this as an opportunity to test our first self-ref league. Although not without issue, we feel it was successful. When looking at the paid official versus self-ref across the broader spectrum of leagues, we thought a member survey would be a great starting point. The results of the survey are included below. As you can see, the results do not tilt the scale in one direction or the other. Based on this, we have decided to table the decision for the time being and continue the leagues with paid officials. As part of these discussions, we were successful in negotiating a reduction in the referee fees.
While court rental and referee fees are our top two expenses, we do have others. Most are the typical expenses you would associate with running a business or in this case a non-profit organization. We have little or no control over many of these expenses which include county fees, business license fees, storage rental and insurance. In the past year we have reduced costs in the expenses we have control over over such as our website, registration system, advertising and equipment/merchandise inventory.
Throughout this letter the terms 'we' and 'organization' have been used, but we have not really explained who exactly that is. Fairfax Volleyball Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization. We consist of a Council with ten unpaid volunteers and one paid, very part time Administrator. If you are interested in joining the Council, please let us know. We are always looking for new people with a fresh perspective. Regardless, we appreciate your participation in our leagues and we would like to encourage you to continue to provide us feedback. As we mentioned earlier, we realize our members vote with their feet. We are always interested in why people play or have stopped playing in our leagues.

I am going to buy a new crossover to split the signal, low to the 10" sub and high to the existing MB crossover. What frequency do you typically use for this? I listen mostly to rock and prefer tight bass to annoying bass. I am thinking 100hz to 120hz your suggestion and reasoning is highly appreciated.

Sketches of Siberia Trailer (2016)
14 January 2016 Factual 74 mins
In 1913, polar explorer Fridtjof Nansen took part in an expedition, to open up a regular trade connection between Norway and the interior of Siberia. His fascinating diary, Through Siberia, The Land of the Future, is an important inspiration for Sketches of Siberia, in which elements from Siberia's past, and present are visualised, focussing on the mighty Yenisey river basin. Within themes such as colonialism, exploitation of mineral resources, and demographic developments i.e. the destiny of native people and the influx of convicts and exiles, we search for the human dimension balancing precariously amid the influences from outside. Nansen's observations and considerations at the time, are mirrored in a present day context.

Uses For Wings - Variations From 'We Can Be Broken' & Other Discarded Poems - Poem by Warren Falcon
'It means so much that we can be broken.' - from an early poem,1978
For Tien Ho, departed,
and Michael R.
carving the empty space
of her leaving still
Here is a Presence beyond
illicit fires bearing witness
to evidence, remains of flight,
contrived escapes blocked by panes,
walls striped in ramming panic,
of ritual and a broken neck,
petrified wings placed in open
spaces they once could range.
I began
a bird flown down a chimney
dying in an empty house,
a hidden mountain valley,
night time fires upon surrounding
hills, moonshine stills signaling
flame warnings, bootleggers' silent
spirits conjuring drip by drip
metal and grain.
Here are uses for wings:
something returning,
or turning inward
eventually climbed,
rested upon,
or fallen to some chimney life.
Descending the hill in unplanned rehearsal
for what has become a destined association,
our mutual confession is invisibly drawn.
A ruined one-room church appears,
a cemetery plot weed-hidden behind this
once sentinel house long remote to men,
as present as God. My own presence is bound
to his who stands confounded now as three,
one above grave, one within it, and me
in between, one eye upon him, the other
upon sagging dirt where bones and a
ragged shirt share an unexpected
moment of veils confused in sunlight's
disarray of leaves, wood, of stone and
shadows frozen there, not breathing
for us all in unstoried astonishment.
Here horseflies feast.
Upon weathered stones
are only creases for once were
names, dates, even God's Word,
chiseled by a now unknown hand,
an impression only, one among many,
reduced to no plot but that of Providence
left to surmise swatting at Eucharistic
flies proving only flesh and only blood,
a flood of questions eventually exhaled,
and exhaling still, waiting beside
a white rock with wings,
ignoring fires,
leaning into changes.

Coconut Milk
April 29, 2013—Fearlessly Archived—Still a fun read, price & availability may have changed.
Unsweetened or Vanilla
There is something so delightfully exotic about coconut. Thoughts of the tropics, trade winds blowing across beaches, palm trees swaying, big, hard coconuts landing on your head… So, okay, sometimes exotic might be overrated. Sometimes it's just a whole lot more simple to grab a carton of Trader Joe's Coconut Milk and enjoy the fruit of the coconut palm this way.
Trader Joe's Coconut Milk is a dairy free beverage that's really delicious and coconutty. Looking for an alternative to dairy milk? This is a vegan, gluten free, soy free choice, with a distinct flavor profile that sets it apart from other "milk" options. Use it in coffee, smoothies, with cereal and in cooking — if you're making a curry, we definitely suggest a splash or more of Coconut Milk.
We're selling Unsweetened Coconut Milk (less than one gram of sugar per cup) and Vanilla Coconut Milk in 32 ounce, resealable cartons for $1.99 each, every day, an excellent value for coconut milk. (The cartons are "shelf stable," so you can keep them in your pantry until you need them, and refrigerate after opening.)

Ethics and virtue are mainly referred to the moral principles and positive character attributes of the people in the workplace. Those employees who have these values are not more likely to steal, even small pens in the offices. Despite the small amount of objects stolen, they know that it is still a form of stealing. Examples of virtue ethics in the workplace are respect, courtesy and integrity.
According to the famous philosopher and author named Albert Camus, a man who has no ethics is like a living wild beast freed into this world. Likewise, there is a need to closely look at the damages created by unethical companies into the lives of people. CEO's, presidents, managers and owners must make it a priority for their companies to shine its light among employees. In effect, the businesses will continue to strive for integrity and virtue.
Examples of Virtue Ethics in the Workplace
1. Trustworthiness
Being trustworthy results for your co-workers and boss to depend and rely on you. As for your boss, he or she knows that you are showing up at the soonest possible time and is ready in committing and doing your job.
And since you are being trusted, the team players are not worrying if you are a slacker. This is due to the reason that they know that your priority is the end results of the project. You have already established your reputation as a direct and honest employee.
2. Respect
Respect is the most important virtue ethics in getting along co-workers. When respect is tempered by acceptance in the differences of others and tolerance, you proved to be a valuable employee and co-worker.
Apart from it, you are after considering the feelings and emotions of other people. The work relationships are not even taken for granted. You also do not like to gossip or talk behind the backs of other people. If there is anything that you want to open up, you just say it directly to the face of the person.
3. Responsible
The optimum reason for getting special assignments is your ability of being responsible. Other bosses feel that they are babysitters. They need to check on and follow up even the tiniest detail in the task that is assigned.
However, this may not be the case for you as the boss depends and trusts you for taking the duties seriously. Your boss also understands that if there is any issue, you are going to confront her out. She also believes that the assignment is to be delivered before deadline, or in due date.
4. Caring and Compassion
Many of the co-workers are coming to you in seeking out for help. This is because they know that you truly care and you demonstrate compassion because of their problems. A neighbor involved in doing good work, your co-workers are aware of contributing to a harmonious and pleasant work environment. You are not interested in polluting the workplace with hostility, displays involving negative energy and anger. Apart from it, you also value for thoughtfulness by means of thinking before speaking!

The truth is "13 Reasons Why" wasn't a series that was on my radar even as late as last week (it premiered on Netflix on March 31). I heard nothing of the show on the internet, saw no advertisements for it on YouTube and generally had no idea about its source material.
I happened to discover the show on Netflix by chance and since all of my usual weekly TV shows were on a midseason break, I decided to watch an episode or two and see if it was something worth watching.
After 15 minutes the show had me hooked, and over the course of two days I watched all 13 episodes. Netflix usually has a great track record of promoting their best productions but in the case of "13 Reasons Why," it seems they undersold the product. As it stands now, "13 Reasons Why" is my second favorite show of 2017.
The series is fundamentally about Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford), a junior at Liberty High School who has committed suicide. Before she took her own life, she left a series of 13 tapes that discuss the 13 reasons that lead her to commit suicide. Each tape revolves around an interaction between Hannah and another person at Liberty High School. Once a person finishes the series of tapes, they have to pass the tapes on to the next person on the list.
Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette), a friend of Hannah, receives the tapes two weeks after her death, and what emerges is a mystery that is as griping as it is entertaining throughout the entire 13 episode catalog. It is through Clay that we journey through the narrative of the show, and it seems he is as clueless about the whole situation as we the audience are. Viewers experience Hannah's story through Clay. As a result, he becomes a sympathetic character.
One of the many interesting aspects of the show is the way it forces the audience to always hold Clay at arm's length. As the show goes on, every character involved in the tapes has done something fairly harmful to Hannah, and that makes the sympathy I felt for Clay become more guarded as the narrative progressed.
"What did Clay do?" became the question that burrowed into the back of my mind as each episode passed.
While that tension was being built, an immense and interwoven narrative was being presented that felt personal and allowed the audience to at least understand Hannah's motivations for committing suicide, even if they didn't agree with it. Each episode tells an individual story about Hannah and another character, and each showcases the amazing storytelling abilities of the creative team behind the show.
On the note of the creative team, "13 Reasons Why" features a truly stunning group of directors, including two Academy Award winners. Tom McCarthy, director of 2015's Best Picture, "Spotlight," directed the first two episodes, and his direction really helps immerse the audience in the story. His artistic style is planted in the first two episodes, and resonates through every following episode.
Jessica Yu, the Academy Award winning director for "Breathing Lessons: The Life and Work of Mark O'Brien," directed episodes 11 and 12, which are two of the four most powerful episodes of the series.
Even with all of the amazing directors behind the camera, the story would have failed if the characters in front of it weren't interesting. Hannah is the most interesting character of the show, and rightfully so as the story is her story to tell. A lot of films use the common trope of solving the death of a woman, while the woman in the story has no agency.
This common trope is flipped on its head for "13 Reasons Why" as most of the story takes places as a set of interwoven flashbacks starring and narrated by Hannah.
Katherine Langford's performance as Hannah left me feeling that this character was full of personality and life, which is ironic as she's a character detailing the loss of her humanity. The creators of the show really make the audience care about Hannah and at the best moments of the show, they make you forget she's dead.
This provides even more tragedy to the story because at the end of the show it becomes very clear that Hannah is not alive. There was never any doubt that Hannah was dead, the show was just written in a way that constantly has you hoping that she isn't. The show covers the reactions from many people involved in Hannah's life, from teachers, friends, fellow students but most importantly, her parents.
Brian d'Arcy James and Kate Walsh play Hannah's parents, Andy and Olivia Baker. Both of their performances are as brilliant as they are heartbreaking. Their journey is that of parents trying everything they can to understand why their daughter would take her own life. They grasp every piece of information, evidence and rumor to try to construct some sort of logic to the situation.
The last four episodes of the series are absolutely brutal and emotionally draining. I would recommend that if you do watch the show, you prepare for what comes in the last few episodes. Each of those episodes gets a disclaimer at the beginning of the episode, and it is not used lightly. The content in those episodes will most assuredly upset people emotionally.
It is intended to elicit a reaction from the audience, because this story pulls no punches. They don't leave much to the imagination. They show you everything. Some people might not like the show because of that, but for me it only added to the value of the narrative. The creators had no intention of letting people minimize the actions and reactions of the characters in the story.
The only issue I had with the show is that everyone who sinned against Hannah was treated pretty equally by both Hannah and the narrative. What I mean is that some of the actions against her weren't as severe as others, but they were all given essentially the same amount of weight, which I didn't find too realistic. It wasn't a big problem but I did think that even if Hannah's character believed them all to be equal, the story should have taken a few more steps to heighten the severity of some actions and lessen others.
"13 Reasons Why" on its face comes across as another run-of-the-mill young-adult story, but viewers realize fairly quickly that it is anything but. It has valuable lessons for people of all ages, whether that is to be cognizant of how you treat others or to recognize the warning signs that a person might be suicidal. These lessons can be grasped by high schoolers, adults and parents. Although the show can be especially hard to watch in the last few hours, it is only holding up a mirror to society and asking them to care enough to take a look.
I give Netlifx's "13 Reasons Why" 9/10

Yes Friends,
This has been a long time coming. Namely my definitive treatise on the death
penalty. In which I clearly present all the main arguments against ever
imposing and carrying out a death sentence…in any circumstances and no
matter how heinous the crime. And follow that up with a series of possible
counter-arguments, and my unequivocal rebuttal to each one of them. Ergo,
this is in every respect a 'take no prisoners' essay!
On Capital Punishment has now been published in Parisiana magazine. You can read it here
Having never polled my extensive mailing list on the subject, I've of course
no way of knowing precisely where everyone on it stands with respect to the
death penalty. My educated guess is that the vast majority oppose it.
Comments are closed on this particular Parisiana page. And with good reason. The magazine is, as it should be, freely accessible to all and sundry.
Yet I've already seen the kind of scurrilous remarks that got posted on
Expatica's site after they published a version of my original Zahra Bahrami mailing.* Such as, "The problem with executions are [sic] that there are way too few, not too many." Thus should you have something of interest to say, you'll need to direct your response to me personally. You can contact me via this link.
What I do however ask of you is: IF you are in touch with any individuals
who either support capital punishment or are sitting on the fence, then by
all means send the link to my article on to them. As I say in the piece
itself, I am not in the business of preaching to the converted. Although
hopefully all that I've written will give you more than enough solid
ammunition to blow away any pro-death penalty arguments that may ever get
fired in your direction.
Ultimately it is those who continue to cling to wrong-headed views concerning capital punishment I am most wanting to reach. With all verbal guns blazing.
Ever onwards towards sanity, EDDIEContinue Reading »
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Herbert Huncke!
That's how, nearly 25 years ago, I introduced Herbert for what proved to be
an absolutely riveting storytelling reading at Ins & Outs Press. It went on
nonstop for two solid hours. And when it drew to a close, the packed-house
audience were still asking for more. Now the live recording of that amazing
evening has finally been released as a double-CD album, by Unrequited
Records in San Francisco. It's called Guilty of Everything, which is also the title of one of Herbert's books.
Take a look here
Amsterdam residents can score copies of the album from me personally.
Everyone else must order from Unrequited Records. Details for this,
including prices, are on their Order page. Plus you can already hear
selected tracks by going to the Listen page.
Hi Folks,
A short while ago the Athens-based writer & journalist Michael Limnios wrote and asked if he could interview me. I said yes, and the interview has now been posted on Michael's magazine, Blues @ Greece. It also has lots of groovy photos of moi, some of which you'll already know, others not. The interview is here
What's further interesting is that this interview covers different ground than the one Sacha de Boer conducted with me three years ago (and which was published in her book Retour New York-Amsterdam and can be found on my website). In other words, they perfectly complement one another.
Once you've read the interview (and I hope you will, because it's good!), be sure to check out Michael's main page. It's great. You'll even hear music playing on it.
Ciao for now, EDDIE

Dear Fellow Poetry Lovers,
I am at once pleased and proud to announce that my classic poem "Mary" is now appearing in the excellent online magazine Urban Graffiti. It is there together with a video clip of me reciting the poem at Ana Montana's outrageously wonderful sAlon dAdA, in Amsterdam. (This clip was made by Helena Karsten, with whom I'm now working on a film adaptation of "Mary.") And is further accompanied by the famous Diana Blok & Marlo Broekmans Pietà photograph. In which I am Mary to Diana's Jesus.
You can get to all of that right now, right here
That's it, folks. See how short and sweetly to the point I can be sometimes 🙂
Cheers, EDDIEContinue Reading »
On March 4th 1987, a most extraordinary funeral took place. Snuffie, the Gangster Woof of Amsterdam, was laid to rest. That was all so long ago, that only a large handful of you had the pleasure of meeting, and in some cases coming to know, my little dog guru. A few others have heard tell of him. To the vast majority the name itself is new. Snuffie and I were together for just over six years. I'd inherited him from my dear French junkie prostitute friend Elisabeth Lemoine, who died at far too young an age in early January 1981. Her tale is ultimately tragic. Whereas Snuffie's is, and shall always remain, glorious. But the two are intertwined, at least to begin with. Hopefully one day I'll get round to telling both their stories in full. For now, however, I'd simply like to introduce you, via a series of somewhat surreal photographs, to the ceremoniously stylish manner by which Woofie took his leave. His body left us, and his barks. Yet his spirit, and his special brand of uncanny canine wisdom, live on.
And so I give you, at last online,
The Snuffie Memorial Exhibition
Dear All,
My poetry CD Dangerous Precipice was released in 2004. Thirty-three of my own poems, plus me reciting seven poems by three other poets (A. E. Housman, Lord Byron, and Robert W. Service).
That was followed three years later by my recording of Tsunami of Love: A Poems Cycle.
These are now available for online downloading via New Antique Records.Continue Reading »
First comes the book.
Then if you're lucky the reviews.
Or in some cases, if you're unlucky.
Or if someone out there has it in for you.
Or worse yet, has it in for the topic of your book.
An example of this last scenario is Frederick Turner's recent study, in the Icons of America series,
Renegade: Henry Miller and the Making of "Tropic of Cancer."
No sooner was the book out, than a lady novelist with a pseudo-feminist axe to grind named Jeanette Winterson came along and tried her damnedest to bury it. With fangs bared and claws flailing, she vented her envious spleen not so much on the author but rather on the subject of his well-informed and impeccably researched work. And therefore, if only by inference, took Turner to task simply for daring to write laudingly about such an 'unworthy person'as Henry Miller.Continue Reading »

Eight Democratic lawmakers were arrested Tuesday while advocating for comprehensive immigration reform in front of the U.S. Capitol.
Democratic Reps. John Lewis of Georgia, Luis Gutierrez of Illinois, Charlie Rangel of New York, Raul Grijalva of Arizona, Joe Crowley of New York, Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, Keith Ellison of Minnesota and Al Green of Texas were all detained by Capitol Police. The politicians, along with activists who attended an immigration rally on the National Mall Tuesday afternoon, staged a sit-in near the west side of the Capitol.
Authorities arrested the lawmakers for crowding and disrupting the streets around the Capitol. Police arrested almost 200 people during the protest.
"We cannot rest, we cannot be satisfied until we have comprehensive immigration reform," Lewis told reporters earlier in the day.
The arrest was Lewis' 45th, according to his twitter account. The civil rights advocate has been known to participate in sit-ins and protests throughout his many years in Congress.
"My colleagues and I are not afraid to get arrested for what we believe is important to move America forward," Rangel tweeted.

"Hey boy!" hollered a captain once he saw Link emerge from the Princess's cabin, "You're commanding the Red Regiment now!"
Well, this was rather shocking considering how Colonel Bright had fought for leadership of the Red Regiment. Slightly surprised but delighted, Link steadily made his way towards the captain.
"Didn't Colonel Bright want the Regiment?" he asked.
"You're right about that, but he changed his mind," explained the captain, examining his shield, "But then we reminded him what the Red Regiment's for."
What kind of Colonel didn't like the first charge? Link almost scoffed at the notion that the Colonel was terrified of the front lines. Then again, most were afraid of the Red Regiment because the latter served a certain function in battles. Whereas the Gold Regiment was made of the sturdiest men who guarded the very back lines, the Red Regiment was at the very front. Orange, Yellow, Blue, Indigo, Green...All were behind the Red Regiment. Back at Hyrule, every citizen knew that to be in the Red Regiment was to practically give away one's life so every time a boy joined the training camps, his parents prayed that he wouldn't be put in the Red Regiment.
"Just serve your country well, son," every father would say to their boy if life in the army was what they wanted, "Do the bare minimum."
Ironically, the more a father stressed to his son to "do the bare minimum", the more likely he was to be placed in the Dreaded Regiment, as the locals called it. Placed in a competitive environment, the boys always competed with one another to be the best, as was the natural behaviour of young boys. But little did they know that colonels, admirals, and generals scrutinized every actions the boys made more carefully than the youth suspected. While the boys dreamed of glory, they were unaware that the more bravery and skill they displayed, the higher the chance that they would find themselves in the Red Regiment. Only the most courageous and most skilled boys fought in the Red Regiment, because the notion of being the first to be sacrificed demanded unwavering nerves and the adequate techniques to defend themselves.
"You're the right size to lead the Red anyhow, Hero," continued the captain, "Slim but limber. Had we put the Colonel in there he wouldn't be able to keep up. You up for the first charge?"
"Always," responded Link.
The captain nodded, "That's always good to hear. You should've seen the argument we had trying to figure everything out a few minutes ago. Colonel Bright basically announced that he wanted to give up the Red Regiment and he was trying to force it down people's throats. No one would take it, obviously, so we needed someone crazy enough to take the job."
"Thank you for suggesting that I'm insane."
The captain shrugged, "Someone had to do it. There's a fine line in between bravery and insanity, and we figured yours was blurred to the point where we really couldn't tell which category you fit into."
"That's...very good to know."
"You weren't as crazy as the past captain, though, I'll tell you that. Then again, I'll really miss Morus; it's a shame he had to end that way."
"You know," said the captain turning to Link, "I grew up with him. In fact, I was the first person he was told to duel with. Blew me right onto my back, and that was the day they decided he was in the Red Regiment. I was more jealous than you can ever imagine. But I was young, and I didn't know the implications of being in the Red Regiment. When I found out, I couldn't believe I had spent years dreaming about it."
"It's a harsh regiment to be in."
"Well, it's your regiment now," reiterated the captain, "Just watch out, alright? We can't afford to lose you."
"Trius! Trius!" hollered the solder from the crow's nest.
Thrusting the captain aside, Link weaved his way through the crowd to where a rope ladder reached the ground. Everyone had heard the cries from the soldier in the crow's nest, and they had been fighting to see who would go up and look when Link appeared. Seeing the Hero, the soldiers pulled away and allowed Link to climb the ladder. Rung by rung, Link climbed as the soldiers below him held the bottom of the ladder in place so that the wind wouldn't cause it to sway. Gradually, the temperature dropped the higher Link went until the cold bit into his skin. Another summer had passed, and now autumn was here.
A soldier named Braveris was perched in the crow's nest and offered Link a hand once the Hero reached his destination. Braveris, being the respectable man that he was, moved aside and pointed into the distance.
"Look!" he urged Link, "We'll be there in a few hours."
Link followed Braveris's finger and saw a lush piece of land with mountains to the West and plains to the South. It was just as the Hyruleans' map had indicated. Slowly, the island of Trius drew closer to the fleet, the faint outlines of its trees and rocks becoming clearer by the second. Braveris stood back as Link watched the island, calmly commenting on the landmass.
"It's not as I imagined, you know," Braveris was saying, "I believed that if Trius was the place where Ganondorf wanted something done, it would be barren just as most evil places are. But this, this is different. Trius looks beautiful, actually."
"Surprising, isn't it?" replied Link, sill staring at the island.
"Now, look to the west of the island," said Braveris.
Link's eyes flitted to where Braveris had told them to. He had to squint to be sure that what he saw was true, but soon Link could make out the black sails of Ganondorf's ships, coasting towards the mountains.
"Why they'd even want to go through the mountains, I don't understand," continued Braveris, "They were better off going through the plains."
"The mountains, geographically, provide the shortest route to the Glass Palace," explained Link.
"So why are we taking the long route?"
"We have to try and intercept them, not follow them. Besides, Hyruleans generally aren't even familiar with traveling through mountains except for the Gorons, so I wouldn't risk trying to bring our armies through there. We're plains people, really."
"Well, as long as you can guarantee that we'll shoot across the plains and reach them on time, I don't really have any objections."
"We will. Our army moves quicker than Ganondorf's, which is probably why he's risking the mountains as well; he knows we're not familiar with them."
A giant whooshing sound caused Link to turn to his side, where Marius now flew.
"My angels and I are going to spy on Ganondorf's army. We'll return with news."
"Please be careful," advised Link, "And return quickly."
"Don't worry about me, Hero," returned Marius, "I'll leave now, but before I do I want you to look way into the distance at the center of the island. I can see the Glass Palace from here."
Raising his arm, Marius signaled the other angels to follow his lead. From the ships of the Hyrulean fleet, angels emerged and batted their wings, soaring into the air. As the angels sped past him, Link could barely catch the silhouette of the Glass Palace. If it weren't for the slight reflection the twilight made off of it, Link would have completely overlooked it.
Inside, Link's heart began to pound, much like Ganondorf's own heart as his ships reached the coast.
Time was of the essence now. Ganondorf hadn't left any time for his army to celebrate before ordering them to disembark. Now, the Gerudo's troops were clustered in dark masses of armour and flesh along Trius's shores. Night was moments from covering the world with her veil, rendering Ganondorf's army almost imperceptible. One by one the soldiers arranged themselves into perfect formation, prepared for the trek through the mountains. Proud of his troops, Ganondorf was moments away from addressing them when Reiza tugged upon his armour and pointed to the sea.
"Look there," she smirked, "The Hyruleans."
"What!" exclaimed Ganondorf, squinting to see, "They were at least a day behind!"
But Reiza hadn't been lying. Even through the darkness Ganondorf could spot the outline of a fleet of ships, their sails flapping in the wind. The Hyruleans were traveling in another direction, but they were still catching up to Ganondorf and it alarmed him to know that the Hero was only a few hours away.
"We certainly didn't count on this," muttered Reiza angrily.
"Tell the troops to move now," ordered Ganondorf, "We can't afford to wait anymore."
"What about the soldiers still in the ships?" inquired Reiza, "They're still out of formation."
"We can't wait," repeated Ganondorf, "I don't care if the Hyruleans aren't anchoring here, I want to get through the mountains as quickly as possible. So go, tell the captains to hurry."
Obediently, Reiza turned and began to walk away from Ganondorf. But a few moments later she stopped and faced him once more, her face stern and riddled with anxiety.
"There's a chance they'll move faster than we can, isn't there?" she asked Ganondorf, "You have a feeling that we won't be able to outrun them."
"Reiza," growled Ganondorf without looking at her, "Go."
Reiza flipped her hair and shot Ganondorf a concerned glance before she cupped her hands and brought them to her lips.
"We're on the move!" she yelled for all to hear, "Ganondorf wants us to go through the mountains now!"
"Through the mountains!"
"Come on, boys! For Ganondorf!"
"I don't want any lagging; follow me!"
The gruff voices of Ganondorf's captains reached his ears as well as the scuffling of feet through sand. So loud were the footfalls of Ganondorf's army that no one heard the sound of wings that beat nearby. Almost completely hidden from sight, Marius watched Ganondorf's every move as his army made their way to a nearby forest. With a flick of his hand, Marius drew his angels near and whispered to them.
"The real battle begins here," declared the King of Angels, "Disappear among the trees, blend in with the rocks, do anything in your power to keep Ganondorf's army in check. But whatever you do, please don't make a spectacle of the whole thing. If you need to attack, strike only the stragglers or those who wander off. And please keep silent, communicate with hands."
"Will you go with us?" inquired one of the angels.
"Always," replied Marius, "Always."
Oh no, oh no, what did he just do? And now, what was he doing?
Lord Hur crouched in the dark, silently rifling through Morus's bag. The Hero had taken it to his own makeshift quarters, but Lord Hur had managed to find it. While every other soldier slept, Lord Hur was looking for one thing in particular that would help him. The fact that Lord Hur was now at the second step of his plan was amazing to the young noble, as he had always thought himself cowardly. What had the first step been? Stealing that book. How did he even manage to do it? Lord Hur remembered: he had waited for Zelda and the guards to leave the cabin and had managed to slink in, unperceived. He had dug through the Princess's chest of books until he found The Art of Dark Magic.
What proved to be most ironic was why Lord Hur had stolen the book and why he was now stealing something of Morus's. Guilt. Guilt that he was not helping the Hyruleans in any way. Guilt that he had allowed so many horrible events to unfold. In essence, Lord Hur was trying to redeem himself by stealing whatever he needed to fulfill what he had in mind.
He had to know where Reiza was, and what she was seeing at this very moment.
"An object the target has touched," the book had told him. That's why the spell had worked in the first place, but now Lord Hur needed a stronger version of the spell. The book had told him everything. It had told him how he was connected to Reiza because of the spell. Why Reiza had left such a spell, Lord Hur couldn't understand. Either way, that was not important because Lord Hur needed to see her life as the present dictated, not the past.
Now, which doublet was Morus wearing the night he had slept with Reiza?
Blue, no, red. Red? No, green? Lord Hur had one chance because the arsenic would cause him to hallucinate to the point where he wouldn't be able to retrace his steps, just as he was retracing that fateful night at Fortune. He should have paid more attention to the captain; everything would be easier had he done so!
Wait! Lord Hur remembered! Blue!
The noble unsheathed a small knife he had brought with him, and proceeded to cut out a minuscule piece of fabric. It had to be small enough for him to swallow, just as his father's sheets had been easy to swallow the first time Lord Hur had been introduced to the spell in the vial. Ripping easily through the fabric, the knife presented Lord Hur with what he needed. He could leave Morus's belongings alone now, and he could make his way down to the cellar.
"Good night."
Lord Hur straightened. That was the Hero's voice. Oh no, oh no, what was he to do now?
Shoving the fabric in between the pages of the book, Lord Hur retracted his knife and stood. He could hear Link weaving through the makeshift barracks towards his own curtained area of the ship. Lord Hur needed to move as quickly as possible, but how?
Without thinking, Lord Hur ducked through the side curtain and bolted.
He saw Link stop in his tracks. The Hero had seen Lord Hur move, but he was uncertain as to who it really was. Slowly, Link crept towards his sleeping quarters while Lord Hur did the same, but away to the side. He could not afford to be clumsy and fall. Sidestepping all the way, Lord Hur barely breathed as he drew nearer to the trap door every moment. Should he run now? No, the Hero would catch him.
Link had disappeared into his quarters. Quick! Quick! Lord Hur stole away, his feet lightly gracing the steps as he ran through the trap door and towards his own cabin next to Princess Zelda's. Had the Hero seen him? Was he being pursued?
Slamming the door behind him, Lord Hur panted and wiped the sweat away from his brow. He would wait a minute or two, just to be sure the Hero hadn't caught him.
One minute. Two minutes. Three...
He was safe.
Placing the book upon the desk, Lord Hur opened a nearby drawer and pulled out a balled piece of cloth and a green vial, the latter of which was used in his father's murder. Nervously, Lord Hur set both upon the desk and unwrapped the cloth, revealing a suspicious mound of white powder.
The more hallucinatory elements you mixed with the water, the more you will see.
But how much arsenic could Lord Hur take? What were his limits? For years he had sought the help of arsenic for amusement, however Lord Hur was now consuming it for a serious purpose. How much had Reiza put in the first time? Judging by the very slight numbing of his body at the time, Lord Hur reasoned that she hadn't mixed very much. Then again, swallowing arsenic instead of breathing it in always dulled the effects...
Lord Hur was vastly ashamed at how much he knew about the subject. This would be the last time he involved himself in such activity.
Pushing his thumb and forefinger together, Lord Hur extracted fifteen pinches of arsenic and dropped each into the green vial. He then took the fabric from the book, rolled it, and shoved it inside with the arsenic. Water was the last he needed, so taking his own drinking gourd Lord Hur filled the vial.
He stood there for a moment, his hands by his sides. There was a chance that he would die, but Lord Hur wanted to aid Hyrule as much as he could. If not for Hyrule, for his father.
He would remain calm this time and watch every scene that unfolded.
His hands shook as he brought the vial to his lips. The sound of shattered glass followed as Lord Hur consumed the mixture and allowed the vial to drop to the floor.
How much time did he have to wait?
Five minutes was all that was needed, and soon Lord Hur found himself arching over his desk. Everything was beginning to blur, and Lord Hur felt his body go numb and heavy yet his heart was beating faster and faster. The noble wanted to turn back, but it was too late to revoke the spell. Fifteen pinches, had he really just done that? How stupid had he been his entire life?
He felt himself stagger back. Reaching behind him, Lord Hur managed to find a wall and slid down its face until he was sitting, legs outstretched in front of him. The blood rushed too quickly, and the room was morphing before his very eyes. Forcing his eyes to remain open, Lord Hur watched as his cabin gradually disappeared and, in place of the bed, was the cadaver of a man with gouged eyes.
In a flash, the man was now suspended from midair. But no, it wasn't the first man, it was someone completely different. Lord Hur had seen these events before, but now he was witnessing them in frighteningly clear detail. As one dead man gave way to the next, Lord Hur's heart sunk and his head continued to throb as Reiza's past whipped before his sight. A drowned man, a man with his throat slit, his poor father upon the bed, Lord Hur saw everything for a second time until suddenly, the scene changed to a part of Reiza's life he had never observed before. The clock tower of Clock Town rose up into the air, its sinister shadow sheltering a beautiful woman with the whitest skin.
Yes! Yes! This was what Lord Hur was looking for!
Stumbling about, Lord Hur followed Reiza from a distance as the woman made her way back to the brothel where she worked. Lord Hur wanted to scream, to shout, to cry out, "I found you!" yet he couldn't. Around him, everything grew darker and blurred except for Reiza's figure as she sauntered through the streets of Termina. Holding on to whatever he could to continue, Lord Hur stalked Reiza into the brothel and past every other whore in the place to her room, where she awaited clients.
Everything was moving much too fast.
"A man is here to see you," and soon Ganondorf was standing before her. Lord Hur had never seen Ganondorf before, but now he saw the dark eyes and felt the horrible presence of the Gerudo. Evil emanated from him so thickly that Lord Hur felt suffocated.
Another scene change, and soon he was leaving Termina on a black ship bound for the ocean. It was getting harder to keep his balance now, but Lord Hur fought on as the sea became fire and the ship transformed into land.
He was on one of the Islands, and that was when he saw Reiza during wartime.
Burned men, tortured men, men and women and children cut into pieces, Lord Hur couldn't stand it. His heart was beating much too fast now and what he saw did not help. The Stones, the weeping victims of war, he saw more evil than he had ever imagined. How had he thought he was on a glorious adventure?
One by one, the Islands flew past and the bodies grew increasingly disturbing and twisted to look at. Death made itself known to Lord Hur so many times that the noble thought it his best friend. Tears dribbled down his cheeks as Lord Hur shuddered so violently he felt as though his limbs would fall off and he would be as bare as the bodies Ganondorf's troops had impaled onto trees. The remains of a man were slumped onto a nearby branch, and without thinking Lord Hur reached out to touch them until he realized that what he touched was breathing. He was somewhere else again.
He was in the King's cabin, and the King was sleeping.
Staggering about, Lord Hur turned to see Morus, his eyes unnaturally cold, sword raised.
"No, no Morus don't!" cried Lord Hur, trying to grasp Morus's hand, "You can't do that! You'll die!"
Lord Hur lost balance and fell heavily onto his side, causing him to cry out. Morus simply stepped over him and continued solemnly on. Crawling, Lord Hur was yelling but it was all too late as the blade when down into the King's body, which only transformed into Morus's headless corpse the moment the sword fell. Lord Hur was lying in Morus's blood, his head to the sky as he convulsed and watched the day turn to night and night to day as all of the sudden he felt himself moving and sat up.
He was next to Ganondorf, and they were in a mountainous area.
If Lord Hur could, he would've jumped with joy because he had found what he wanted to see. Reiza was on Ganondorf's other side with a map stretched out upon her lap. Bringing in his focus, Lord Hur used the last of his energy to watch as Reiza's fingertips stroke the paper, indicating Ganondorf's battle formations.
Make a note of this, Lord Hur forced himself. Stalfos in the front, they would separate the moment they emerged from the mountains. The Hyruleans were approaching from the plains, and they would be pursued by one of the breakaway sections until the other half met them at the Glass Palace. They would be caught completely unaware and would be too exhausted to fight. Surrounded, they would die one by one, Link included and Ganondorf would have everything he needed.
That was it, simple as that. A pool of red had been creeping in from the brinks of Lord Hur's eyes the entire time, and now Lord Hur let go.
He fell down into a bottomless pit, his heart beating faster and faster. He couldn't breathe, he couldn't swallow and he could not longer control himself or feel anything until he felt something on his torso and a pair of hands on his wrists. Someone else was holding his ankles as he thrashed about, uncontrollable and the arsenic unrelenting as the red disappeared and his cabin took shape, along with Link.
"Lord Hur!" he was screaming, "Look at me, keep looking at me!"
"Why did he have to do that?" Princess Zelda was hollering, "Is he going to die? Is he going to die?"
Lord Hur tried to speak but his tongue fluttered too violently to form words. His cheeks were wet as tears had mixed with saliva from his mouth.
"Turn him over! Turn him over!" the Hero screeched.
"No!" Lord Hur wanted to shriek.
Princess Zelda had the book in her hands, and her look told Lord Hur she knew exactly what he was trying to do.
"You! Take his arms and I'll deal with this!"
The guard nearly dropped Lord Hur as Link wrapped his arms around Lord Hur's belly. The noble felt his eyes roll back in his head as the arsenic became too much. Then thick liquid fell out of his mouth, and Lord Hur began to calm.
"Has he vomited it all out?" asked the guard.
"We can only hope so. What was he doing?" mumbled Link.
Zelda presented him with the book and pointed to a certain passage. Lord Hur's tongue had stopped fluttering.
"I saw...I saw..." he said, "I saw everything. We'll be ambushed, we need to prepare...Plains...Ambushed..."
Lord Hur wheezed and grew limp, with Link and Zelda watching in shock. To their surprise, Lord Hur smiled: he had survived everything, and he could tell them all that they needed to know.
