Entry 3
There once was a man by the name of Lord Carter. He was a nobleman, but this wasn't always true. Lord Carter began as an outcast on the island of Rockfell. His father died when he was only a boy. His mother left him alone in the wilderness shortly after. Fortunately for Carter, luck was on his side. Throughout the years, Lord Carter discovered the secrets of the wildness where he roamed. He discovered iron. After a vast number of years spent wandering the wild, Carter stumbled upon a large barbarian encampment. He took refuge among the barbarians, and to his surprise they accepted him as their own. He brought along his greatest discovery, iron. The barbarians treated him like a God. A statue was quickly erected in his honor. Carter worked day and night and eventually created what is known as the first ram. He also added the first iron weapons and armor to the barbarian arsenal. The barbarians were a violent group and often went on raids of nearby cities and towns. Lord Carter, now growing old, decided to accompany his fellow barbarian brethren on one of their journeys. This became a normal routine for Carter, almost like a game. Lord Carter eventually created a large empire throughout the region. He would conquer town after town, city after city. A man with absolute power is most certainly bound to have enemies. Lord Carter created the forum of the four. A group of Lord Carter's four most trusted men. These men would protect their ruler at any cost, even if it meant expending their own lives. These men knew the true meaning of loyalty. Lord Carter became the most respected and most sought after man in all of Rockfell. Along with his four brothers in arms from the barbarian encampment in which he was raised, Lord Carter expanded his empire to rule all of Middle Earth.

Aquarius
Just a few hours ago, I was sitting on the couch in my living room trying to watch my favorite TV series. The weather outside reminded me that spring was approaching. With a little LUCK, this spring will be better than the last ones. But then I began to see rain clouds approaching my house, the temperature began to drop, and the sky began to darken.
Commercials. I really hate them. I must spend at least half my time in front of the TV watching them, and for some strange reason they think I am interested in slimming women's clothing. Someone needs to invent commercials that fit the desires of the viewer. Recalling my past experience with marketing, they would definitely sell more if they shows ads specific to each viewer, kind of like how the ancient roman merchants attracted specific people to buy their goods in the FORUM.
Just as my last thought landed, a huge lighting bolt RAMMED my house.
Black.
I mean pitch black.
No more commercials. No more Mike Farell. The air was filled with electricity that smelled like burnt IRON.
The only light there was came from my aquarium.
There I was, with heavy rainclouds and rolling thunder outside, trying to figure out if I was more angry for missing my TV series or that I just lost power.
As the lightning flickered outside I saw one of my many fishes in my aquarium playing some kind of GAME with another fish. I have small schooling fishes and bigger ones. The big one froze like a STATUE as the smaller ones circled him. I do not know the SECRET of fish language but it looked to me like they were having fun. After a minute or so, I noticed that one of the small stones in my aquarium was obviously very important. The big fish refused to move himself from it, while the smaller fishes playfully attacked the larger fish. This reminded me of a childhood game I played called king of the hill.
The smaller fish could not defeat the bigger one, so I guess he CONQUERED the hill.
The size difference between the fishes caught my attention as I watched them play. It was very NOBLE of the big fish not to swallow the smaller ones, as they would have easily fit inside his mouth. I left that BARBARIC thought as fast as it came to me, as fish cannibalism is not exactly the most charming thing to think about.
Soon after the power came back on and I realized that my TV series had ended. I glanced at my watch and realized that three hours had passed!
I've spent three hours with my fishes. I never knew that their life could make my time so fast.

The Football Game
Last week, I visited a football game of the St Louis Rams. They lost, but they didn't have bad luck, they were out of shape and played uncoordinated like Barbarians. All visitors were disapointed, especially the women on my left, who looked like a noble. She was so cute, that she conquered my heart by storm. Normally, my heart feels like a statue consisting of iron, but she made me feel totally different. I'll meet her again in the forum of our city hall, but I have to keep it as a secret, otherwise my girlfriend will be very angry.
