Who am I?

Post by Kalbar »

I'm not quite sure I remember any longer.

But I do remember a few things. A few, precious things.

There was once a dream that was ALFA. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish...it was so fragile.

And yet, almost two decades later, it still exists. Changed. Changed in so many ways. But it endures.

It seems almost a miracle.

Whoa, long time no see.

Anyway, take less, or more of what you're taking. Either way it doesn't seem to be exatly the right amount... :P

....or do you mean 'ether'....

Anyway ALFA still lives for 10 or 12 of us.

Could be 11 or 13 if you'd quit yer yappin' and log in. :))

Well, ALFAboarding is a legitimate interrogation technique and has been proven to work.

A wise man among your people once said "Wer mit Ungeheuern kämpft, mag zusehn, dass er nicht dabei zum Ungeheuer wird. Und wenn du lange in einen Abgrund blickst, blickt der Abgrund auch in dich hinein."

Seems relevant when the topic at hand is ALFA's message boards.

It's German. Obviously one of Veilan's people wouldn't have said a wise thing in English.

Google translate gets it close enough. You'll probably recognize the quote.
