"Develop the latent abilities within you for that is your power alone. Psionics is the ultimate art of magic and you are its practitioner. Through lifelong dedication, strive to unite your will with your physical form to become one. Only through the unrestrained union of one’s mind and body can the magic of psionics truly be mastered. Throw off the yoke of any who would impose tyranny upon you. Likewise, do not ever force another to submit to your will. Free your mind, free yourself and you have only just begun the path to true psionic mastery. Free others, open their minds to the Invisible Art, and you will show them way to Auppenser."

| If you're referring to candlekeep.co.uk, the two sites have no connection or affiliation, as far as I know(and I have been here for quite awhile...) |

| I asked a similar question shortly after I joined here. There is no connection between the sites. |

Candlekeep.co.uk has absolutely no connection to *this* Candlekeep site.
In fact, as I recall... the guys over on that Candlekeep don't like us all very much because we host both FR authors and game designers -- the only other FR forum outside WotC that actually does that. Or rather, they didn't like us much before their site re-launch. I've noted recently that attendance seems to have dropped off from there since then.
I wonder where all those lost scribes went?

Well met
Indeed, my fellow scribes comments are correct, VonRaventheDaring.
I believe a member of the other site came to the forums once in the early days, but nothing has been heard since.
To be honest, whilst we certainly claim no rights to the "Candlekeep" name, I think their site would work much better if they had simply chosen another name. |

| I think the site admin from over there did poke his head in here when I asked the same question. He seemed friendly enough... |

Just to let you know the site is gradually getting back on its feet again now, come by and say hello, everybody welcome -- we've decided to not go with the forum this time round just yet, but each article can have comments added, much like a blog. Some of the old nifty bits that you may have seen might have been taken down, either for a redesign or never to come back -- Overall we're going for more of a online-realms-magazine angle, hopefully with regular updates of realms lore, maps and the like...

A weblog used to be personal commements, sort of a public diary.
Once comments are able to be added in becomes a foruon (A site that discusses things). These days I suspose you can classify a site anything you want to call it, bullitan board, forum or "blog" by deciding to call it what you want to. |

By having comments on the main articles it allows anyone to share their opinions and ideas for all the world to read and respond to. So it's part forum, part blog.

Yes, I'm part of the admin; we felt the name was most fitting for its purpose, for those realms-DMs seeking lore, what better place than the biggest library in the world? (and we'd also brought the domain name by then) |
