On a starlit night in June
Silver clouds against the Moon
A gypsy† child with the desert in her eyes
Danced before the fire
And a desert wind blows through my heart
Where once the snows held sway
And desert stars are clear and bright
Upon the close of…

Ride like the wind
Banner flapping like the raven’s wings
Army spreading out behind me
And we ride like the wind, like the wind
Take another square mile of land
We must defend it, we must defend it
Bring another village to my hand
It’s for their own good, it’s for their own damn good
Ride like the wind
Banner flapping like the raven’s…

Bless me Lady of the Ocean
Goodness knows that I have sinned
Wrap me in your endless motion
Open up your waves and let me in
Sand all awash in silver
Waves etched in crystal blue
And the moon casts a river
Of light that leads me right back to you
Bless me Lady of the Ocean
Goodness knows that I have sinned
Wrap me in your endless motion

Album: Waterline

Year 2000 album by Lórien. Although still geared towards Geek and SCA audiences, Lórien’s sound had matured since Quest. Slightly more complex and modern arrangements, fuller harmonies, and all-original tracks that ranged from Medieval/Fantasy to far future Science Fiction make this a Fan Favorite.
Only a small run of 2000 CDs were pressed, and neither the CDs nor original masters exist any…

1998 album by Lórien. Aimed mostly at SCA & Fandom/Convention audiences, the album has a singer/songwriter vibe. Simple acoustic arrangements, light harmonies, melody-forward and lyrical.
Only a small run of 1000 CDs were pressed, and neither the CDs nor original masters exist any longer; however you can find the Album on Spotify, and on Sound Cloud.

I went camping over the Labor Day weekend, at an SCA event called Hunter’s Moon, near Albany. Just getting time to sit in the trees and meditate was amazing. Truly I am a forest creature, and no-where am I as real as in the GreenWood.

Historically Accurate Xena- now in full colour!
Hiccups and delays aside, here it is. Xena is equipped as an early hoplite; (my headcanon is that, owing to her immense, perhaps semi-divine strength, the bronze is between 4 and 8mm thick- too much for any muscle powered weapon to handle from any angle) packing an early Doru, a Boeotian shield, and a Makhaira sword.
Gabrielle’s Amazonian outfit is a composite of Scythian grave finds; she wields a composite bow and Akinakes sword, wears an elaborate phrygian cap, and the trousers and moccasins of a culture seriously weird to Greeks.
Other avenues are still waiting to be explored! Don’t forget to reblog, and tell me what you think.
I’m absolutely willing to defend my questionable use of snarling Gorgoneiona. Fight me.
