Hi Everyone!

I woke up this morning and reread this post. I became bored after the first sentence. I feat I find interesting. Not many people can say they were bored to death by their own words! 😁

For those that read the first draft of this post. I'm sorry and 'Thank You' for staying awake through the whole post or 'You are Welcome' and I hope your nap was wonderful!

Now, yesterday morning the beautiful @simgirl said to me, "Snook, you should do a 'Kill the Pad' Challenge." The short explanation of 'Kill the Pad' is they want you to write a rap song.

While trying to take a nap because I went to bed too early from having The Cold from ............. Yes, that place.....but it's early and one shouldn't swear before they even had their first cup of coffee.

Anyway. Stop sidetracking me, please!

Cold. Nap. Up at 3 AM. Needed sleep before the radio show. @Simgirl's suggestion dancing in my head meant 30 minutes of fairy thinking.

Yes, I blame her for the song and video below. I blame her for a lot of other things too but we will save those for another day because I'm nice like that! 😇

Oh, and let's not forget blaming @inthenow too. He was the one I showed the first song draft. He was very polite and told me, "This sucks! What are you thinking! Go find a different song!" so I did. Find a different song. @inthenow might not have used that exact wording though....... 😁

I hope you enjoy the song and the video below.

I promise to try and never write an opening statement that makes even myself bored reading it again.

I'm sorry @shadowspub. You will just have to read my posts in PYPT while trying to restrain your hand from poking yourself in the eye because of my wonderful grasp of the English language, yet again. 😂 😋

There! That a whole lot better than

I wrote this story in my head today while trying to take a nap.
It grew into a movie where the footage was taken in one of the Dimensions I have made in the game Rift over the years. ~ ZZzzzzing

Fairy Queen

---

Queen of Fairys, Queen of all,
Bring peace, tranquil style.
Hear the laughter, from the heart,
Hear the joy, from the soul.

Inner peace.
Outer world.
Come together.
In her world.

Moon n' stars, shining n' full,
Another day, refreshing.
Silvery glows, abound n' groves,
Twinkle n' light, bring n' might.

Inner peace.
Outer world.
Come together.
In her world.

Refresh, rejuvenating, when around.
Blue n' green, dew abound
Smell'en, Smell'en, like Xanadu.
Tripping on sunshine.

Inner peace.
Outer world.
Come together.
In her world.

Walk n' rest, become your best.
Grove slaying, come all.
Open soul.
Light.
In.
Rush.

Peace out,
The Fairy Queen

In the video, I used a Dimension that comes completely empty except for bright blue skies and very cold color sand.

---

---

At the time this Dimension came out everyone was so happy. We finally had a place totally empty and large enough to be able to build anything you could think of as long as it did not go over 1500 items.

Sounds like a fair deal until we all realized anything we really wanted to build in this new wonderful dimension would entail covering up all the sand. A 1500 item count doesn't go very far when the only thing big enough to cover that much sand, and still have it look like real grass, was to use rocks. A lot of rocks.

The sky color could be changed with a 'sky projector'. In this dimension, I used an 'Earth Projector' to get the greenish glow and cast to everything. That was item number one. I then needed some walls because there was no way you could cover the whole place with rocks, even if you wanted to. The Walls were made out of even larger rocks. To make the walls, I used about 25 huge rocks.

Once I knew how large it was going to be I started laying down the rocks on the ground, stretched out as big as they would go, and proceeded to lay over 350 rocks to make the floor of the grove.

I did add the walkway, you can see in the above photo's, but the problem with using too many of those brick walkways was how much they cost per panel. I had to be very careful to use every inch I could. I wanted the walkway wandering through the whole place.

I was lucky enough to have been collecting a certain kind of a tree that I found very pretty. I didn't have a place to use them yet because they were so large. Once the grass was all in, adding a bunch of those trees, at full size and larger, started to fill in all the empty space. It started to look cozy.

---

---

---

Last but not least was making the rest of the open space pretty and peaceful looking to me.

I called this dimension 'Thinking'. It was a very calming place to be in while working on. You were surrounded by trees, water and plants I added to finish the place off.

I have to say, I miss making dimensions but I don't miss trying to find 3 trees the same or one more purple flower. I do go back here and there and look at them. I remember all the times they were filled with friends and laughter every night.

The stories I write and put to video will always hold a special place in my heart.

So many things all came together, in the end, for the video to be made so many years later.

It kind of makes you realize there might have been a plan all along now doesn't it!
