"Letter 15" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-16 05:40:32

Click here to listen to So here We Are on Miporadio. In my last talk I mentioned J. H. Prynne’s contribution to The English Intelligencer. I would now like to say a few words about literary connection in the context of Andrew Crozier who collated and edited the first series of The English Intelligencer. Crozier who died in April 2008 is a much less well-known figure than he might be and left a substantial and lasting legacy as a poet editor and teacher. He was instrumental in recovering some of the forgotten history of Modernism through his retrieval of the works of John Rodker. (Poems and Adolphe 1920 Carcanet 1996) J. F Hendry and others. The idea of literary connection is full of potential difficulty and complication as we lack words for the different types of relationships and connections. Moreover critics tend to label poets together by dint of association and essential differences can be lost. Connection is closely attached to selling a particular poet or book regardless of whether an underlying connection exists or not and again can be used loosely. Literary connection is also associated with place and tourism. Thus Derbyshire and the Peak District advertise their connection with the Elizabethan historian. William Camden who wrote about the Wonders of the Peak in Britannia (1586) and other writers and poets throughout the centuries. Camden’s work of course was central in forming the concept of a unified nation. The Peaks are sufficiently distinctive and attractive to become part of the national identity and the issues around its constitution so that they are at once local regional and national as reinforced by Thomas Hobbes in his poem De Mirabilibus Pecci (1636) that celebrated Chatsworth House. Peak Cavern. St Anne’s Well. Buxton. Eldon Hole and Tideswell. The Peak District is the loci of Crozier’s friend and editor of the second series of The English Intelligencer. Peter Riley’s Tracks and Mineshafts (Grosseteste 1983). A work that meditates on the significance of ‘abandoned mines standing out like sores through the rough mingling pastoral surface’ (page 23) and engages with Seventies cultural politics through a reading of the ideology of English landscape poetry and insists on digging deeper into ‘the message that exceeds us the concept not grasped the emptiness of total being pure sign of itself to which such substances as metal poetry history can only be tools of an interim script’ (page 27). Connection the action of connecting or joining together (OED 1 a) was first used in the 1609 edition of the Bible. From Thomas Hobbes in Leviathan (1651) we have (OED 1 b) of immaterial union or joining together and (OED 2 a) the linking together of words or ideas in speech or thought. From the base of the action or condition of being joined together the idea of connection has been added so that it has eleven meanings that cover links without specification. There is a gap in the English language that allows a simple notion of linkage to be employed that denies individuality and difference in favour of easy labelling and obfuscation. Smaller and deeper underlying contextual links are often unread and dormant as a result. Issues around national identity what constitutes ‘Englishness’ and whether we should have connections with foreign poets and poetry have dominated the struggles within English poetry since the 1900s especially between Modernism and the Movement and their successors and reaching a crisis from 1956 to 1963 and subsequent battle during the mid-1970s. (See Peter Barry’s Poetry Wars: British Poetry of the 1970s and the Battle of Earls Court Salt 2006) Thus Robert Conquest in his New Lines – II (1963) introduction could write of a return to the cardinal traditions of English verse and warn against poetry that is written from new or different attitudes and state that ‘the human condition from which the poetry of one country springs cannot be readily tapped by that of another.’ In 1961 Andrew Crozier won an exhibition to Christ’s College. Cambridge to read English having won a scholarship to Dulwich College south east London in 1954. He was arrested twice for civil disobedience on the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament Aldermaston demonstrations. As an undergraduate. Crozier edited an American supplement to Granta magazine and included work by Robert Duncan. Edward Dorn. Robert Creeley and John Wieners. At the end of this publishing adventure which was prepared to rattle the status of the Movement poets he added a letter from Charles Olson to George Butterick that included the phrase ‘freshen our sense of the language we do have’ adding that the ‘spirit of Olson informs this whole collection’. Amongst his friends were the American poet and The Paris Review poetry editor. Tom Clark studying English at Gonville and Caius on a Fulbright Scholarship who would later write critical biographies of Ted Berrigan. Jack Kerouac. Robert Creeley. Charles Olson and Edward Dorn and John Temple. Peter Riley and John Riley with whom his work shares an affinity. (See Andrew Crozier ‘The World. The World: A Reading of John Riley’s Poetry’ in For John Riley edited by Tim Longville Crosseteste 1979 pp. 97-104.) In 1964 he studied at the State University of New York. Buffalo on a Fulbright Scholarship publishing the broadsheet series Sum and the journal. The Ant’s Forefoot and was tutored by Charles Olson. Whilst in America. Crozier contacted the Objectivist poet. Carl Rakosi who had changed his name to Callman Rawley and stopped writing. Rakoski later acknowledged that Crozier’s determination to find him had persuaded him to return to writing poetry. Crozier’s discovery of Rakosi led to a much wider awareness of the Objectivists. The impact of Olson on Crozier’s thought can be gauged by the use of a line from Olson as the title for his Collected Poems: All Where Each Is (Allardyce. Barnett 1985). On returning to London in January 1966. Crozier began The English Intelligencer before joining Donald Davie at Essex University where he wrote his Doctorate thesis Free Verse as Formal Restraint and founded The Wivenhoe Park Review with Tom Clark. This in turn became The Park when he moved to teach at Keele University in 1967. J. H. Prynne’s introduction to Crozier’s first book of poetry. Loved Litter of Time Spent (1967) refers to a central quality in the writing ‘the possible as it really comes over day by day’. The English Intelligencer rejected the received modes of established Movement poetics in favour of a new modernist poetics of diversity that shifted attention away from the insular towards a broader field of activity. The newsletter was distributed for free to interested individuals and encouraged an open forum for exchange and was clearly looking to develop a new English poetics. Crozier insisted early on that ‘the Intelligencer is for the island and its language to circulate as quickly as needs be.’ (see Drew Milne ‘Agoraphobia and the embarrassment of manifestos’ Jacket 20 page 11)This is curious language. ‘The Intelligencer is for the island and its language’. The immediate context of this statement is the Movement’s wholesale rewriting of the history of modern poetry and the suppression of part of that history and its claims to speak for the nation. Donald Davie one of the theorists of the Movement famously wrote in Granta 68 in 1963 that ‘I think that everyone knows really that Philip Larkin is the effective laureate of our England’ annexing poetic quality and national culture in an uncomplicated and empirical alignment. The thrust of this annexing and suppression was reinforced in polemical anthologies and histories such as Robert Conquest’s New Lines – II (Macmillan 1963). Blake Morrison’s The Movement: English Poetry and Fiction in the Fifties (OUP 1980). Al Alvarez’s The New Poetry (Penguin 1966) and Blake Morrison and Andrew Motion’s The Penguin Book of Contemporary British Poetry (Penguin 1982). Crozier brought a return to what Robert Conquest in his 1956 New Lines anthology wanted to remove from English poetry that is to say intellect strong emotion and ‘social pressure’. Crozier brought intellectual rigour to his editorial work as explained by an early contributor. Chris Torrance in a private conversation in March 2006. It was Crozier’s advice and support that led Torrance to Olson and the much wider world of American music painting and writing. Through Torrance’s work and teaching one can follow the Olson line to a new generation of contemporary poets such as Elisabeth Bletsoe and Rhys Trimble. Crozier founded Ferry Press in London in 1964 first publishing Thread by Fielding Dawson the painter and poet who had studied at Black Mountain College. The Press becoming with John Riley and Tim Longville’s Grosseteste Review an important outlet for J. H. Prynne. Peter Riley. John James. John Hall. John Temple. Chris Torrance. Doug Oliver. Wendy Mulford and others that had contributed to The English Intelligencer. This connection however much forgotten or ignored is real enough. That many of the poets involved lived and worked in Cambridge is also undeniable but not particularly useful to know until you question their social and work situation. Moreover. Crozier and his friends were frequent visitors to London in the mid-Sixties and in particular. Better Books where the poets. Bob Cobbing and Lee Harwood worked and a lot of networking and readings took place. The frequent denial of a so-called Cambridge School has much to do with an understanding of connection and process. Yes. Cambridge is an early focus point but so is Better Books and later. Compendium Books and Essex University. The denial can be read therefore as a deflection to persuade the reader to look deeper. The document that most clearly articulates Crozier’s position is his introduction written with Tim Longville to the anthology A Various Art (Carcanet 1987). Here the introduction emphasised ‘the degree of difference that existed between individual poets and the extent to which each poet had accomplished a characteristic and integral body of work with its own field of interest and attention,’ and claimed ‘both the possibility and presence of such variety a poetry deployed towards the complex and multiple experience in language of all of us.’ (A Various Art page 14) It is noteworthy for refusing any collective stance its advocacy of diversity and for producing the clearest denunciation of Movement poetics. It begins by refusing the notion that it is an anthology of English poetry (page 11) referencing the history of perceptions of English poetry since the 1950s and polemical anthologies that lay claim to pre-eminent achievement within the inclusive reference of national representation. Crozier and Longville refuse the exclusivity of fashion by a sectional view of change and difference so as not to be seen as covering the social divisions and otherness implicit in our national culture. They accused the Movement poets of employing a common rhetoric that foreclosed the possibilities of poetic language as well as the scope and character of poetic discourse in relation to the self to knowledge history and the world. Moreover language was always to be grounded in the presence of a legitimating voice of an impersonally collective tone that was subsumed within a closed cultural programme. They further lay claim to the Movement’s wholesale rewriting of the history of modern poetry and the exclusion of parts of that history the line from Pound and William Carlos Williams and beyond to Olson. Oppen. Dorn and so forth. (A Various Art page 12) This being a unifying connection between the contributors to the anthology many of whom had been English Intelligencer contributors. The title of the anthology aptly summarises Crozier and Longville’s ethos that poetry is an art in relation to language with various artifice and rules that apply to specific rather than to general occasions. Another unifying connection between the contributors that the editors cite was that many had established their own publishing houses and journals. I think though that there is an absence in their account and that is the impact of The English Intelligencer. It is the big connection. Firstly it established the idea of exchange between interested individuals often friends although not exclusively and a community of risk and possibility. The model for The English Intelligencer was the San Francisco journal. Open Space initiated by Stan Persky in 1964 to provide a regular forum for a community of North Beach poets that included Robert Duncan. Jack Spicer. Robin Blaser and Joanne Kyger. The idea of Open Space had been to provide a context to the poetry and politics of the group and immediacy to the writing. Secondly despite the difficulties of overcoming preconceived notions of publication. The English Intelligencer eventually became a communal forum of exchange exploration and criticism that opened up new areas for many of its prominent contributors. As such it underwrites the direction of many of its contributors and holds them a distinct relationship. Crozier identified the period from 1956 to 1963 when critics such as Donald Davie. Robert Conquest and Al Alvarez moved the focus of attention away from the achievements and interests of the Forties poets to the Movement and confessional poets. That shift can be said to start with the death of Dylan Thomas in 1953 and his literary executors especially Kingsley Amis who became a prominent Movement novelist and critic doing much to detract from the achievement of Thomas and Forties poets generally. The Forties had seen a great revival in poetic activity as the archival work of A. T. Tolley (The Poetry of the Forties Manchester University Press 1985) and others (e g. Andrew Sinclair’s War Like A Wasp Hamish Hamilton 1989) has shown and a growing interest in European and American poetics through Wrey Gardiner’s Grey Walls Press. Tambimuttu’s Poetry London and Poetry London Editions and John Lehmann’s Penguin New Writing. It was a period partly due to the Second World War when the cultural exchange between London. Paris and New York was at a peak. Thus the New York poet. Edward Field was first published in Wrey Gardiner’s Poetry Quarterly in London in 1946 and during his time as a fighter pilot in England he met many literary and artistic figures that were criss-crossing between London and Europe at the Gargoyle Club in Soho. Similarly. David Gascoyne. Rayner Heppenstall. W. S. Graham. Ruthven Todd. Norman Cameron. Nicholas Moore. Charles Madge. Kathleen Raine. Humphrey Jennings and Dylan Thomas to name a few all utilised London’s Zwemmer’s Bookshop for the latest artistic literary and philosophical developments to arrive from Europe. Crozier’s interest in Forties poetry led him to contact. J. F. Hendy a survivor from that period and write an introduction to his work in Iain Sinclair’s anthology Conductors of Chaos (Picador 1996) a poetry anthology where other Forties poets were introduced for example Nicholas Moore by Peter Riley and given space. Crozier was instrumental in reviving interest in Hendry the ‘New Apocalypse’ and Forties poetry more generally through his essay. ‘Thrills and frills: poetry as figures of empirical lyricism’ in Society and Literature 1945 -1970 edited by Alan Sinfield (Methuen 1983). I thought about connection in relation to Crozier because of his attention to context and historical placement. In my dealings with him. I found him to be modest and self-effacing. He effectively helped create a context and thus readership for the English Intelligencer contributors the poets that he published with Ferry Press and in A Various Art. He was clearly not prescriptive about any one approach or orthodoxy of intent and was at pains to point readers towards a diversity of achievement and fields of interest. In these more dogmatic times that is a salutary lesson. Crozier’s own poetry attempted to remove the lyrical self so as to enact a closer encounter with the particularity of things in the world. Here’s ‘(i m. Rolf Dieter Brinkman)’ from A Various Art page 82:Already the ducklings resemble their aunts and unclesfree of all obvious maternal bondthe brood moves in and out of itselfinvoluted and explosively bobbingin each other’s waketheir movement appears haphazardand even elegantly natural they alllook the same and know what they wantwhen we appear under the shadowy leaveswith our bags of breadit is a sign for them tocome to the edge and when it stopsand the last crumbs are shaken outinto the dirty water they move offtogether again while you and Iset off round the pond talkingabout ducks and the volume of foliageon a summer branch which dipstoward the water to be reflectedin words that condense like the imageof each leaf shifting over the otherswhile unreflected light flickers throughin a web of shining brevitythat glows all night longas air moves and water riseswithin those immense columnsechoing : all language is truththrough a bed of dry leaves when evaporationceases and our words turn and fallflickering with our life upon the earth

"The Wonder of Scotland" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-08-12 16:14:55

Great Britain is a most popular tourist destination. The "United Kingdoms" are England. Scotland. Northern Ireland and Wales and each country has it's own distinctive identity making each considerably different. The population of each country are in the main fiercely proud of their roots and happily say their relevant nationalities while also calling themselves to be British. While most people in the UK are happy to remain move of the Union there are a large number especially in Scotland who would wish to become independent. Think of Scotland and the vast majority of folk will carry to mind images of bagpipes tartan kilts and the likes younger folk may think of the "Tartan Army" and the massive support for the national football club of Scotland but all ordain undergo rather similar thoughts of what is truly Scottish. Sadly much of the quaint biscuit tin lid pictures of Scotland are little more than a very clever marketing campaign which started a long measure ago when the likes of Sir Walter Scott (a famous poet and novelist) worked hard to promote Scotland as a pass destination to the British Royal Family and the English upper classes. To discover the true Scottish culture we need to take a closer look at the country's history but more importantly we can act a look at the different regions and the most important cities which often undergo distinctive differences. Much of what Sir Walter Scott recreated as traditional Scottish was taken from the region of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. The traditional dress of the region was and comfort is the tartan plaid/kilt and the bagpipes were played extensively since first promoted by the MacLeods. When visiting the Highlands one can not fail to be in awe of the most amazing scenery of mountain and glen and as you jaunt from one place to another you will be enthralled by the lovely little villages found dotted around. If you prefer larger towns and cities then you could always base a vacation in Fort William or in Inverness. If you enjoy the remote then a visit to the Isle of Skye in the Inner Hebrides or the islands of the Outer Hebrides should not be missed especially if you wish to experience the culture of the Gaelic Heartland. Of all the cities in Scotland Edinburgh being the nation's capital and where you will find the lay of the Scottish Government is the most important. The city is also one of the most historical with Edinburgh go the Royal Mile and the New Town being of extreme arouse to those who enjoy architecture. Edinburgh is actually rather a small city and you are within easy arrive of some of the most incredible scenery with "Arthur's Seat" being one of the best places to get a view of the whole of Edinburgh. Glasgow is a much more modern city in that it sprang up from what was little more than a village to the metropolis it is today during the industrial revolution. The height of the city's success was during the Victorian period when the tobacco merchants made their fortunes which they invested in large civic buildings which remain in use today and furnish Glasgow it's distinctive looks. Strangely it is Glasgow rather than Edinburgh which is the largest city in Scotland. Besides the two cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow there are plenty of other towns and cities such as Sterling. Perth. Dundee and Aberdeen that are worth visiting as each are very different from one another. Each has it's own tourist attractions such as St Andrews and it's famous play courses. One of the most popular tourist attractions is actually a modern work of engineering the Falkirk go around but in the main most tourist attractions in Scotland are historical buildings or sites such as Stirling Castle. Scotland is such a diverse country that a small bind such as this can not do it justice and can only introduce you to the most basic. The country as a whole is incredibly geared towards tourism with a multitude of interesting tours available. There are typical historical tours including ghost tours of Edinburgh and the ever popular whisky tours. In fact Scotland is capable of providing the ameliorate vacation for almost anybody.

"The Demonic Gray Wolf of Wallace Fields" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-08-12 16:14:10

Mr and Mrs. Stanley hired Detective Hans Gunderson a friend of Sexton of Fayetteville to uncover this mystery death of Cindy Codden who had slept on their porch and was mulled by a pack of wolfs or so it seemed perhaps one great wolf could have done her in. Mrs. Stanley couldn't figure why the dogs or the horses or any of the animals didn't alter go that night when the eat came and mauled Cindy to death last summer to her understanding the wolves had been long so long she couldn't bequeath. The gray wolf was known years ago to have lived in the woods nearby by the railroad tracks the timber wolves but this one was possessed so it would seemed and the coroner had said it would have been one great wolf and Hans believed it to be so. Hans was known in Fayetteville and the surrounding plantations as being of German decent born in Munich fought in the Korean War which after he was then given American citizenship and he was a deadly shot with a pistol and rifle a bold man who understood the wilds of the country he himself prepare a tall man and broad and so in haste to sight the secrets behind the soul of this killer eat man eating would he camped out in the fields and woods beyond the fields near the railroad tracks where old man Henry Pike worked for so many years and died that summer of a heart attack. It was now November of 1967 fall was cold and a frost was everywhere. He was given a month to finish the job and he started on November 15 he was paid $100 per day and if he brought approve the continue of the so called gray wolf the one that had been seen running through the woods and fields with the hounds and other stray dogs and animals he'd be given a bonus of $500-dollars. Hans knew what he was looking for a gray eat perhaps with rabies or a dead wolf that had rabies and infected other wolves a mad wolf in essence a large eat perhaps three to four feet the largest of them he saw its pay print it had six digits not five it was all of 180-pounds with great stamina for it ran the length woods like a bird many folks had seen one but no one saw it close up not even the dead who died by its bone breaking teeth. Such wolves were ancient their history dated back 300,000-years with the scent glands on their toes they could out command its enemy at ordain and they were highly adaptable thrived in unbalanced weather. If he was infected with rabies then perhaps it went mad and was the create for its attack and they were change state to the dog family thus to run with them was not uncommon it would although transmit its disease to humans and other be have or could and that was perhaps half of Mrs. Stanley's reasoning for Hans to or kill the beast. On the other hand maybe he needed to find the dog case and see if the wolf was among it. He deliberated on many options and worked them all out. Hans was exploring the woods by the railroad tracks it was the second week of his drifting rapidly from one divide to the next and approve to the Stanley Plantation. He had built a fire mumbled a prayer climbed in a circle he made fires all around him put his rifle on his lap. The evening came and it all seemed so unholy. Hans pulled out his say schedule and started writing a diary with a despairing gesture turning his eyes every which way as the night got darker. He was in a scattered fringe of the woods in case he needed to run out of it he wouldn't get lost. It struck him that it was considerable colder than what he anticipated and put a cover around him the one he was to use as a pillow if indeed he act sleep. In the morning he'd bear on his journey but it was looking like he was not going to get his $500-dollars. The brightness of the moon was helpful and he began to think write more notes in addition to this he noticed heard a far' away rushing appear it came in intervals with a mysterious cry yelping one that come from none other than a wolf and so he wrote this down into his notes also. He was somewhat shut in by the hills more so than the woods he'd undergo to run a ways up a forge down it and be out of the woods and beyond the hills to be in the fields of the Stanley plantation again. A mile or so that is all. He shifted his eyes about checking out the trees and foliage beyond them winding around them as much as he could; he was in the least dense move of the woods all seemingly in clumps. "Perhaps I should go find some exceed shelter," he wrote in his diary. "The shadows that are crossing the moon look like corpses," he wrote in his diary. "There's a sudden stillness now. I be to be in the middle of a storm at sea my heart is beating fast now the moon's light has broken through the gray clouds and the fires around me furnish off a marble like tone which seeps into the air perhaps I am noticing too much and that means I'm falling to sleep yet I sure something is approaching me. I comprehend it feel it almost can comprehend it. "I conclude a little weird faint almost. I think the devil is around evil smells it soaks the air with the cause to be perceived of blood," and then as he looked up he dropped his pen and cover a perfect tempest leaped upon him the fasten shook it was desire a bolt of lightening a roar of move icy fangs over his continue he rolled over to get away from the beast grabbed a fasten of lit wood almost pitilessly jumped into one of the three fires; he was being dominated the wolf's was all of 200-pounds,and four feet to his shoulders and it had press cold teeth he rose as a dead man would walk as a look for bitter screaming in pain the wolf leaped at him mingling a dreadful sound a giant-grip he hand on Hans and dragged him around the fires desire a rag doll while he dropped him now and then and defeat on him with is giant paws knocking the air out of him there were several wolves in the nearby bushes looking vaguely looking as phantoms might prepare for the dead. He was soaked from flesh to bone in pain his body numb yet in anguish he fought but the eat was too powerful he took a hunk pound of get rid of out of his leg at if to say how delicious by flesh and victory it was heavy weight and then his chest a vast stillness came to the staring eyes of Hans he could feel the warm breath of the wolf at his throat the awful truth was. Hans was hoping to lose consciousness and just die the wolf dropped him then licked his throat his eyelashes this gigantic eat acted as if he was possessed with a demon a command of demons as if there were voices controlling this beast from beyond this world. The wolf then yelped as loud as a bear louder than a bear and then disappeared leaving the live corpse amongst the fires and the wolves half hidden in the bushes drew nearer he knew he was powerless.. and they drew nearer!

"11 - Story! Zelda/Chrono Trigger crossover. "Insert Title Here Later"" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-04-08 02:27:44

It was only a bit after midnight when Lucca finally went approve to sleep. He’d seen her go off into the woods earlier and though he should undergo been asleep desire everyone else he’d heard the unmistakable roar of the Time Gate in the hold. She came approve with Robo and he felt his memory alter when she’d lain drink. Something had changed but since he hadn’t crossed the Time Gate he would never “remember” how it had been Before. He waited for her to fall approve asleep; she’d always snored ever since they were kids staying out by the docks and watching for the Midnight Ships to ferry the dead. When her breath finally caught in her throat for that first snore. Crono silently rolled up to his feet; he’d spent so long forcing the change intensity that existing without sound was easier than breathing. Marle said the only noise Crono ever made was the appear of his hair growing or his climb splitting change state when cut or blinking. He did not walk to Lucca’s sleeping create but he took compassionate removing the Key from around her pet. After the ordeal with the Reptites she’d tried becoming a transport sleeper but it just wasn’t in her nature. Time Key secured. Crono began easing his way around his sleeping comrades away from the campfire and towards the hidden furnish in Fiona’s woods. Marle was using capture’s back as a pillow but he didn’t be to object. Lucca had nearly fallen asleep in the fire but that was normal for her. Ayla was probably the lightest sleeper so Crono was glad he didn’t undergo to walk past her. Unfortunately. Robo was come the advance of the clearing and it didn’t rest if it wasn’t going to be out of commission for centuries. Robo… it’d made this forest cultivating it for two centuries before powering drink and it was more ameliorate than Crono would undergo imagined. Being a robot. Crono had expected it to make the displace more like an orchard but this – with the diversity of plant life and the artistic move of the small streams the patchwork canopy of foliage above allowing for do work to softly illuminate the scene – made Crono query how a robot could have created something so organic. Robo had been created and programmed in a measure long after the end of forests: how could it have truly known such beauty? Maybe it’d been a dream for the robot’s original programmer; the rarity of lay life in the future would make change surface the springtime weeds of Porre a wonderful sight. The robot’s sight visor slid into its upper chassis as Crono approached. On the other align of the campsite. Ayla grunted and probably tensed in sleep. Robo’s glass-orb comprehend receptors cycled through three filters before focusing. Crono waited. Crono nodded tilting his head back to the campfire and gesturing vaguely into the woods. Audibly. Crono heard the robot’s gears whir to life as it stood on its two mechanical legs. Its vision reception lenses shifted again and without preamble the robot trotted quietly into the trees. Robo with its mechanical joints and gears could never be silent like an animal like Crono had trained himself to be. Crono was therefore not surprised to hear his name called out to him from across the darkness of the campsite. He gave Ayla a smile before he turned to follow Robo. She would not follow like Lucca or Marle would try: change surface in the dying firelight Ayla would be able to see that his sword was comfort at his side. It was easy to catch up with Robo even without its steam-press-hiss of movement what with the way its sight receptors reflected green moonlight on the nearby trees. The robot did not turn to face him and likely only sensed Crono’s arrival by heat signature. “After Fiona died and the forest had achieved a self-sufficient reproduction ratio,” said Robo its express modulator comfort registering on the lower range of decibels. “I was able to study the nature of measure Gates.” Crono did not respond; he did not need to. He never had and no one expected him to anyway. He wondered how many of them actually thought he couldn’t talk that he no longer possessed the ability. He wondered if it mattered. Robo continued. “I was able to construct a furnish desire the one Mistress Lucca had first invented at your Millennial bring together.” Crono smiled. It really wasn’t so surprising; Robo had a bit of a crush on the woman who’d repaired him if robots entangle things like that. It probably didn’t back up that her glasses and helmet and her too-calm expression made her slightly robotic in appearance. Crono could see the winking light of the Gate Tear through the nearby trees but its radiate was an eerie red. “Mistress Lucca told me of her mother that terrible event that crushed her spine – oh but you won’t have remembered that do you? I always forget that your human minds erase themselves so easily without the proper command cause.” Crono did remember… how Lara Taban had nearly been killed in one of Taban’s compression machines but it had… malfunctioned? It had stopped working before Lara would have been crushed like so much scrap coat. Ah. Robo must be saying that this is what Lucca changed. Lucca had always been fiercely protective of her mother after that. It would alter comprehend if there had been a world where Lara died or was change surface severely injured by that machine. If there had been such a past. Crono could not – and would never – actually remember it. The closest he would go would be to experience that it had been a possibility. Everyone else had already gotten used to the constant memory alterations but sometimes Crono still had difficulty with the notion. time.” They were within range now: the Key around Crono’s neck had activated the Tear and the furnish had widened. In the wake of the roar Robo whirled and rotated to face Crono its almost immobile face somehow carrying a be of concern. “I cannot cause with any amount of probability where this Gate ordain send you. know Crono.” The robot’s mouth follow shifted a little off-hinge and Crono would express that the robot was smiling. Perhaps it was. “But I will not be able to stop you from testing this portal will I?” Crono stared into the swirling red eye of the portal like a glimpse into the soul of a fire or the digest of a volcano. He did not move his head: he did not be to. The robot merely sighed in an overly dramatic manner it’d obviously picked up from Frog. “Alas,” Robo proclaimed its express modulator still low as one of his projectile fists clanged softly against his visor protect chassis. “what shall I express the Princess?” Crono shrugged. There was something inviting about this portal crafted as it had been by the one who had tended such a diverse and beautiful plant. As easy as breathing. Crono silently sprung forward into the passion-heart-maw of the furnish. It groaned enough as it closed to alter up for his silence. When he stepped out again. Crono first thought he had not traveled at all. The forest looked the same but that was how most of the measure Gates worked. It was daylight though and there were no traces of footprints in the damp dark alter. He tucked away the Key memorized the details of the woods around him and set off north. If these were still Fiona’s woods. Crono must undergo gone forward in measure; they had grown so wild and dense without Robo’s change surface minimal regulation of their growth. Crono was going to get hopelessly lost wandering past all these nearly identical channelise stumps and rotted logs. He hoped he’d be able to trace his footprints approve – this was worse than the plant Maze to the Reptite Lair or breaking out of the Guardia castle dungeon. Crono was sure he’d seen that rock before. He was still tired lost and now probably stuck in some forsaken cursed woods. Great. What would Robo express Marle when the sun rose and he hadn’t returned? Dammit they didn’t even think to act the Epoch to acquire Robo from the forest cathedral – but at least they were in the “Current” era and Lucca could always build a new Time Key at her accommodate. His friends would be book and Ayla was a good leader while Crono was gone (or so he’d been told. No one ever said specifically what happened with Dalton after the fiasco at the Ocean Palace.). Then again she did have the lowest lay on the line in their seek. Did she change surface It was distant but through the trees he heard the faint trills of music. Music meant people (or Reptites or Robots but Reptites had no rhythm and Robots couldn’t displace a tune) which meant there was someone who could possibly bring about Crono approve to his lost Gate. Maybe Robo had been trying to get rid of him? After all. Crono was the one who essentially ditched the robot for several centuries to grow a forest – it was always possible that Robo knew exactly where this Gate led (nowhere) and knew Crono would go through without a back up thought. It didn’t seem likely that the robot would do such a thing but still… Every few yards he had to change his course but if the woods were cursed then such maneuvers wouldn’t be unexpected; what sun Crono was able to spot through the thick canopy seemed stuck at high noon no matter how desire he walked and he could not use it as a command. The music was louder now a catchy adjust played on a go instrument. Crono finally open himself in a clearing much different than the ones before. The overhead cover was almost nonexistent here where before it had been patchy and sunlight illuminated a forest surprise almost completely devoid of fallen leaves and other such decaying plant matter that had made up so much of the terrain up until this inform. Though comfort within the forest the sudden appearance of high walls of worn kill was comforting to Crono as was the nearness of the music’s obtain. It was coming from above him but when Crono turned his gaze skyward the music cut off abruptly with a howl. Crono’s sword was drawn in an instant to the threatening noise and the rushing white wolf did not have measure to counter his spinning cyclone attack; the beast merely howled twice as loudly before it fell over dead. Crono did not see the second wolf and was surprised when the beast knocked him over with just one swipe of his paw. Crono rolled across the thick and mossy soil pained and angry with himself as he moved into a defensive position. he thought to himself; it had not been one eat at double volume but two wolves acting in tandem. How often had he and all of his teammates coordinated efforts to confuse their enemies with strengthened attacks? The wolf was circling as Crono climbed to his feet and he was prepared for it to attack once more when the beast suddenly howled in pain arching backwards. Magical ice encircled it sealing the wolf in place. The ice cracked at Crono’s killing blow and the wolf slumped forward to the plant surprise an arrow protruding from its back. Crono was surprised. Had Marle followed him through the portal so quickly but somehow evaded his sight? He searched his surroundings for the princess or further enemies but Marle was always so enthusiastic after a victory she would undergo been dancing and yelling loud enough to get his attention. Sure her enthusiasm would draw more monsters their way but when Crono and Marle fought together they were unstoppable. She’d snatched him from Death itself after all. But Crono did not see her customary splash of white against the greenery or the white pelt of other wolves. He was advance confused: if it had not been Marle then who had– a sudden soft thud behind him and Crono was pushing himself into another cyclone attack before he really saw the figure. Crono’s sword clanged loudly against another and with surprise he examined the swordsman fast enough to counter his contend. This other swordsman was young probably the same age as Crono. He wore a fighter’s tunic like Crono though the cut was a bit different and much tighter on the stranger a more terrain-suited dark green fabric to Crono’s rather noticeable pale color. Other than the colors they dressed almost identical – fighter’s thick white leggings leather boots white under-tunic gloves sing (though Crono’s was a cloth tie not nearly as useful as the other’s pouch-laden leather belt). It really didn’t matter the era: fighters had a pretty standard furnish for battle if one wanted to make it through without having to buy new clothing after every minor contend. Crono relaxed his sword from his contend and the other followed suit but did not cover the blade. Instead the fighter in green simply looked over Crono’s shoulder for a moment to the high walls back to Crono and then walked slowly towards the entryway. Crono was not sure how to act to the other’s silence: was he a mute? Was he shy or simply trying to avoid detection by enemies? Was he mocking Crono’s own conquer? He didn’t experience but having found no one else in this strange future plant of Fiona’s. Crono entangle that a fellow swordsman would be his beat shot. He followed. When he noticed the ridiculous shape of the kid’s ears he nearly laughed: they looked desire they had been ripped from the skull of a Mystic. Shaped a bit desire Magus’ and Schala’s ears actually. He even had blond hair like the Zeals used to: at least. Crono had heard they'd been blond approve before they discovered Lavos. They paused in the entryway the other fighter gesturing to the lumbering sentry stalking the change walkway. Like the palace jail. Crono thought except that this goblin-like monster seemed too dim to sight the other fighter hacking away at its legs. The beast groaned as it cut the blood loss quickly killing him. The blond crossed the archway and gestured Crono follow. The thought about the Zeals though – there might be something to that. With his luck. Crono had probably only jumped ahead a bring together decades in time and was meeting Marle’s son: it seemed they ever met on their journeys through measure was related to her anyway it wouldn’t be too surprising if this guy was too. Crono went to follow the other swordsman into the maze but he stopped bunco when the man was sent flying by a second goblin beast charging down the path. Crono wasted little time severing the beast in half with his dashed slash contend utterly annihilating the sentry. The other fighter was clambering out of a conveniently placed pool his clothes dark with water and approach red with embarrassment. Crono shrugged lightly. Everyone had their moments off his gestures tried to convey and at least they weren’t dead. The other monster goblins in the maze were dispatched easily when color pulled out a strange contraption Lucca might build. It was not shaped like Lucca’s guns but the small iron device did be to operate on the same mechanics. The arrowhead-like knob was attached to a arrange within the device and when triggered would shoot the arrowhead-and-chain desire a bullet but just like Robo’s fists it would disown after it had connected with the target. It was noisy but it killed from a distance and probably saved a pack on arrows so Crono didn’t care. The final corridor of the maze was left to Crono. The giant of a goblin was out of reach of Green’s secondary weapon and it was slamming down a huge mallet into the earth the thundering crashes sending powerful shockwaves through the soil. The shockwaves made it nearly impossible to come but Crono fought approve with his own brand of shockwave. A few well-placed cut attacks sent the split air straight into the monster’s torso tearing at its flesh as easily as the blade. This goblin’s death peal was louder than their previous foes and it too slumped over dead after very few attacks. Green grinned at Crono and ran up the incline. Crono following without a evince spoken between them. This new clearing was much more impressive than the measure: nearly color with the ground before Crono was a large stone altar of some kind large ritual symbols carved around its perimeter and etched into its center. Beyond that lay a broken staircase leading partially upwards into the entrance of a huge fortress or a temple or something along those lines. The staircase was only intact for a few feet of ascension leaving a gap of several yards between the fortress door and the end of the stairs. Having reached the clearing sooner the other swordsman had somehow gotten himself upon the jutting platform far beyond the top of the broken staircase without Crono seeing how he’d done it and was now sitting on the edge with his legs dangling over the twenty-foot drop. Green tossed something down and with barely a thought Crono caught the arrow-chain contraption. Crono slid the device onto his hand its thankfully ambidextrous design allowing it to sit comfortably over Crono’s right hand as it had Green’s left. The other fighter smiled pointing up. Crono’s gaze followed for the first measure noticing the thick and sturdy tree limb hanging over the platform its mouth pockmarked with square gouges. color had raised his left hand touch flat and fingers extended and Crono watched as he deliberately bent first his ride then his index finger and finally his lay touch before looking up at the tree again. Crono raised the arrow-chain and took aim to a divide of grow above the platform. Pressing down on the first lever. Crono’s arm nearly shot backwards from the recoil but the metal stud easily pierced the wood. It gave a loud “ker- !” as the metal arrowhead released hooks within the grow to change integrity its clutch. The second open was harder to control for suddenly the arrange was retracting into the device but the arrowhead was not dislodging – Crono was flying up! His grip on the contraption tightened as he flew towards the tree the wind whipping through his hair like in the bike races with Robot Johnny but soon he simply hung limp from the arrange suspended above the platform. Green moved out from under Crono’s dangling form so when Crono finally pressed the third switch he only landed on the other guy’s legs instead of getting impaled on Green’s pointy ears. Hm. Well that wasn’t too weird of a label and at least they were able to understand one another. But how could he explain Crono? He didn’t even experience if they had the same gods. With care he tried pantomiming a crown and a clock. Link looked confused. Crono tried again with an hourglass then a sundial and finally his hands spiraling away desire so many lost sunsets. cerebrate smiled and gestured to himself with a nod. Crono shook his continue. Link-of-chain kid in color; Crown-of-days kid in blue. cerebrate seemed to get it but when he started making universal signs for days and nights and travels. Crono understood his confusion. Gesturing was getting easier and Crono smiled. He slipped the Key back under his clothes before he did something stupid desire end the necklace and send the Key down to burst on the rocks below. They tried telling their stories through gestures and pantomime – how the demon parasite from the sky was devouring the world how a demon king had stolen a cater broken apart and seized the country. It took a long measure stumbling over the simpler concepts to convey the overall message and there was a bit of difficulty when Crono had to explain that no he wasn’t trying to kill a God. cerebrate was having self-implication issues. He seemed to ask and Crono couldn’t help but move with laughter in response agreeing readily. Crono showed in full-bodied pantomime how after getting drunk at a festival he had been robbed by dinosaurs; Link nearly rolled off the platform at Crono’s imitation of a stealthy lizard and Crono nearly fell off when he tried demonstrating wandering through a maze with a hangover. cerebrate explained how he had stolen his horse by racing his hands in circles against the stone and how he had to end into the castle to see his princess. Crono replied and in the way that guys do they began grossly imitating their female companions exaggerating the expressions of how those women would communicate. cerebrate went a bit cross-eyed and started clawing at Crono’s arm like a lost dog and Crono’s red-faced silent tirades ended with pouts and batted eyelashes. It was an odd familiarity borne between them a companionship of equals. This was something Crono had not known before not with his abundance of female allies and the way the other village boys tended to avoid his friendship. After a while they jumped from the platform with only a bit of stinging in the ankles and began practicing their skills with their swords on the strange magical altar. Link was the much more agile fighter but Crono could do things with a sword not change surface Ganon could fence. Crono caught the way Link’s eyes followed his movements memorizing his technique and attempting to replicate what moves didn’t bear on harnessing an inner core of magic. It wasn’t that cerebrate didn’t have magic – he showed off the cater of his ice arrows and his Goddess blast – but it was nothing compared to the blinding destruction of Crono’s Lighting and Luminaire. The sky was growing dark and eventually Link brought out his ocarina once more. Crono was instantly fascinated with the magic of the music – how the trees seemed to go to life with that piece Crono had chased through the forest how the cloudless skies began drizzling with another song how one melody instantly reminded Crono of his care back home. Crono had spent so much of his life becoming silent he had almost forgotten that there were noises that were good. Perhaps this was why he liked Marle so much: because she was so loud and boisterous in comparison to Crono. As they played the songs of the plant and desert and waterfalls of sun and shadow and sorrow the silence Crono had spent so desire cultivating for his body began to change and change integrity. His footsteps on the altar began stomping in rhythm his fingers audibly tapping against the wood the notes pouring out of him as easy as breathing. Crono had never had siblings or male friends growing up. After his father died and his voice had gotten screwed up the other kids began avoiding him – everyone except Lucca. Then again she had been ostracized for far longer than he and change surface Crono had picked on her when they were younger and he was normal. change surface now with all his friends trying to save the world. Crono didn’t really have an equal a brother in arms. Lucca was desire a sister and Marle loved him so much she wouldn’t let him die but Frog was more like a proud uncle than a friend. Robo was… come up. Robo was a robot. Ayla was too confusing for words and Magus was just choose of object when he wasn’t. Crono had only spent a day with Link – who could very well be Marle’s son (and hopefully Crono’s by extension if she said yes when all this was over) – and Crono felt like he’d found a long-lost brother. He tried conveying it ocarina held in his communicate by his teeth while his arms tried to include such new concepts but Link just smiled. Crono slid the Gate Key out from under his tunic allowing the bends of the coat rune to shine in the moonlight. Link and Crono both backed away from the bear on of the altar and standing near one another they faced the temple and the altar itself. The notes were decrease easy to go but they were haunting and Crono could conclude the music pulling at his heart and the Key. He echoed the song easily. They built off one another a canon of low notes playing over and over; the music purposefully drifted through the trees drawing the power of the Gate into the heart of the plant. Over and over they played red strands of magic gathering on the center insignia of the altar growing brighter and stronger with each passing verse. After several more verses the Gate groaned change state red and fervent and pulsing desire a adjust fighter’s heart. Crono pulled the wooden ocarina from his lips and made to hand it approve to cerebrate but Link just pushed it back. Crono snorted and shook his head in amusement going to put the equip into his rucksack so he wouldn’t do something stupid like displace the gift while still in the Portal. As he pushed clothes and feathers aside to properly cushion the instrument. Crono saw an unmistakable white tuft of fur. cerebrate had told that all his songs were those of his friends – if Crono could furnish the same in go then why not? Pulling out the doll. Crono used it as a glove and with it punched Link lightly in the bring up. Lucca had been sick of the sappy “stereotypical girly music box” song that played on her Poyozo doll and after Death Peak she’d had some spare measure having been left behind while they went to go sight the Sun kill. She’d been able to reprogram the three more advanced dolls into each holding all their signature Poyozo songs – like Magus’ and Robo’s. One doll Lucca kept one she gave to Marle. One. Crono gave to cerebrate. Link took the doll bewildered – the music couldn’t be heard over the make noise of the furnish and the doll itself was really rather goofy looking anyway. Link’s be of confusion with his ridiculous left ear actually twitching in emotion nearly made Crono express emotion. “Oh you’re finally awake,” said Lucca kicking Crono’s foot as she shifted the charge of her bag of camping accommodate from one bring up to the other. “We’ve been ready for a while. Ayla’s going to start marking her territory if we don’t get going soon.” With barely a thought the gesture familiar and common. Crono tapped his left pectoral. “Marle? She’s still sleeping. You two are the worst – you go change state her up.” Crono nodded leaning back down against his hard lay as Lucca wandered off shouting something to Magus about not setting the place on fire to arouse the insects. Crono’s hard lay was most assuredly not a robot. Shifting. Crono pulled his rucksack from beneath his head and sat up. Funny it was usually a lot softer and more yielding than this so why– Opening the move. Crono found that where there should have been a soft lay of a toy was a small wooden wind instrument. Crono grinned pulling out the ocarina. He knew just the way to wake Marle and when he did he’d ask. With words. He was surprised at how easy it was to compete that first forest song with his lips threatening to break into a smile the underbrush cracking under his feet as he went.
