nice idea stefan but where is the question??:D

[Hopper1984]

Here we go... the fist question.

I am really sure each of you had read this at least once.
But where you can find it, in Albion ?

Virtue and arms.
The passion for glory is the torch of the mind.
While there's life there's hope.
Victory favors those who take pains.

Question 5 :

----------------------------------

The Greek call it Elysium, the Norse, Valhalla and the Christians named it Heaven and Hell.
Though with notable, distinct and important differences.

The Tuatha Dé Danann conquered Hibernia from the Fir Bolg and it´s been said when they left, they settled there.

It is similar to other mystical places like Tír na mBeo, Mag Mell or Hy Breasil.

And i suppose each of us was there even once ingame.

----------------------------------

Die Griechen nennen es Elysium, die Nordmannen, Walhall und die Christen gaben es den Namen, Himmel und Hölle.
Obwohl auch mit deutlichen und wichtigen Unterschieden. Man kann aber sagen, dass es das Pendant zudem ist.

Die Tuatha Dé Danann eroberten Hibernia von den Firbolg und es wird gesagt, wenn sie Hibernia verlassen, siedelten sie dort.

Es ist vergleichbar mit anderen mystischen Orten wie Tir na mBeo, Mag Mell oder Hy Breasil.

Ausserdem nehme ich mal an, dass ein jeder von uns schon einmal, ingame, dort gewesen ist.
