My fellow proud magicians!
Greetings to you, I hope you are all doing well. If I may, I would like to make an addition to my previous post before I get to other exciting topics.
First, a simple question: are video/computer games bad for us? Yes and no. It depends what kind of a game it is and how it influences you, which is something you need to observe. If you feel addicted, it is not a good sign. If you lose your game save and you get frustrated or sad because of it, not good... But if you feel it is a way for you to relax without being too attached, that is fine. Likewise, if you feel it actually triggers your fantasy, it gives you inspiration or even motivates you to be more spiritual, it is a very good thing! Everything we have can be used for or against us, but it is our choices that decide which one of them it will be. That being said, if you are aware that games are not your entire life but you enjoy playing from time to time, and if you like the game Morrowind (or at least you would like to check it out), then this project might be just for you.
Lately I have been doing some modding for the game Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind as I thought of an interesting idea. Since I am not able to build a physical village and a school or a guild, I decided to build it directly in the game. I still wish you could actually go there but I hope this way I will be able to provide you with at least some of the fruits it would bring. It may also serve as something like an architect plan, organization plan and it will be a way for me to design many things that could be used in the village/guild project if it ever comes to the point that it should be built on this planet.
So, what is the plan so far? The plan is to design a village and a place for the Mortrag Castle Guild, so that you can get some idea how it would look like and have at least a slight feeling of actually being there. Basically, you could go there astrally as well but not everyone can do it... yet. I will do my best to make it so beautiful that it will bring magick into your life! I will design my own items in 3D studio Max in order to get the best for you! The second (and the most important) part of the plan is to organize the guild and add virtual teachers who will teach only things that you can use in the realm that we live in (not things from the game). It will not have much to do with the actual game and you will be taught how magick works here, so that you can truly benefit from it. Basically, it is going to be like some of the websites that teach you magick but it will also have graphics and you will be able to move around. I am also planning to add herbs from our world so you can easily learn about their real usage.
A little about what I have done so far. The mod adds a small island called Iskaldur next to the cold island of Solstheim. It is located to the left of the Mortrag Glacier (yes, this game was my inspiration all along! lol) In case you are not familiar with the game, you can find the map of Solstheim at the bottom of this post. Mortrag Glacier is the huge blue thing on the left top on the island. Currently I am building the village, exterior, interiors and adding villagers who are all members of the Mortrag Castle Guild and they all have their own personalities and stories. Depending on who you ask, you will get different answers for most of your questions. Next step will be building the Mortrag Castle and adding guild teachers.
I will provide you with art for this project, screenshots, updates and ideas. If only just few of you could benefit from this, then it would be worth all the time and energy I spent on it! The mod is going to be for free, I do not think I should charge anything for this... it is enough that you will have to get the game itself and the expansion called Bloodmoon (yes, it is required for my mod to work) if you do not have it already. I only want the credit for creating the mod and the rest is for you to enjoy.
I hope you like this idea and if you ever use it I hope that you will enjoy it! See you around, folks!

If you were a millionaire
Greetings, folks!
My apologies for this post might be a little... off topic lol. But this is a really favourite question. What would you do if you were a millionaire? I can not imagine anyone who never thought about this, I think each one of us must have come to this idea at least once at some point. And I would love to hear about it. Go on and post a few comments because I am curious! As for me, I have thought about it many times and I can tell you about my ideas right here. :)
Some people say that money is the root of evil but in fact it merely amplifies who you already are. When I was younger, I thought money was a way to have all the luxuries one could dream about but now my desire for luxuries is gone. What I want is peace, life full of magick, connection to nature and happy people around me.
I have two ideas. Those of you who know me from eBay might already suspect that the first idea is to build a real school of magick, preferably located in a castle (which could be called Mortrag Castle! That would be so awesome! lol) but if I could not afford that I would at least like to make a guild of some sort, located in a hidden, inconspicuous house in a town.
One thing really puzzles me. Howcome people consider psychology an important subject that you can actually study at school and at the same time they consider psychics, magick and related things nonsense? And all this just becuase you can not prove it with science... Well, you can not prove a lot of things in psychology either for that matter. And how can anyone say that knowledge of herbs is nonsense? That healing with energy does not exist? That balancing your body, mind and spirit is useless? I feel sorry for anyone who believes that they can only be cured with pills and that there is nothing beyond the material world. Do you really think that life is all about sleeping, eating, working, and then doing it all over again until you die? We are here to experience the material world, not to be its slaves! But even that is just a mere illusion, for the material world does not need us. We can not be its slaves. This is all just in our heads...
So why not open our eyes? Why not do what we came here to do? The few of us who are awakened should help others who are awakening, in any way we can! Even if it is just small things. I know that very few of us could actually build and establish a psychics and magick school or at least a guild, but one day there will be enough of us to start this project! I do not know if we could make it so you get an actual university degree as the governments do not want awakened and powerful people, therefore it would probably not be acredited as a "real" school. But who knows... perhaps we just need to fight for it!
Another idea I have (and again, this would require a lot of money) is building a village or a small town in the renaissance or nordic style (and in addition there could also be a guild or a magick school in the town/village) for people who wish to escape from the modern world, or at least those who wish to take a holiday from it from time to time. Of course, we could use the knowledge we have but we would use it wisely. For instance, if it was a small medieval town, it does not mean it would be dirty and without a sewer system. It could be a medieval town, but much more advanced than the ones we know from history books.
That was just my little rant about what I would do if I were rich, lol. I do not have a detailed, perfected plan for this, but if some of you were interested I can keep posting ideas about it and we can create it together. And who knows, perhaps one day there is enough of us to get the project going, or somebody rich will "adopt" it. And perhaps others would get inspired and they might build more of them! This is not just my idea, I know many of us would really like this.
Well, let me know if you are one of those people and please share your ideas what would you do if you were a millionaire, I am looking forward to it! Thanks for reading, folks!
