hail friends!
yet another newbie knocking on the door of knowledge and hoping for answers to lost questions which have been found once again. for, in real life, i live where only dreaming about 'dungeons & dragons' is possible, because of absolute lack of interest from the other people. therefore i read, i learn, i study and i assimilate everything i can find related to the forgotten realms, a world which seems infinitely better than the one around me. one of my dreams was, still is and probably will be to play 'dungeons & dragons' on paper and not only dream about it; of course i have played computer games, with their help i have got the closest to the forgotten realms, my other support was the few novels i had the chance to obtain (it`s impossible to get them here, 'here' being the horrible country of romania). i mean i`ve finished 'baldur`s gate 2' about 11 times.. 
i am more invisible and silent on the forums as well, mainly because i am not really cared for, but the warm response i have got after posting at a topic made me feel that it`s necessary to at least whisper a humble 'hello' at the 'well met' section.
thank you.

Well Met Edial and indeed welcome ye to Candlekeep, the greatest and grandest library in all the Realms 
Ahem, er.... just got a little bit carried away there for a moment. Anyway, hope you enjoy your stay within the library and find my fellow scribes very friendly, helpful and accommodating.

Hail and Honor,
Please don't feel shy about voicing your questions, concerns or answers. I haven't met a person here that I didn't like.  So, please sit back and read a tome, talk to a knowledgeable scribe, or have a pint at the Inn. We all look forward to hearing from you soon.
Honor to all,
Avaly Nightstar

| Welcome to Candlekeep, Edial. I hope you enjoy your stay here in the great library. By the way, if you would like to play D&D but have no one to play with, you could always consider Play-by-e-mail (PBeM), which is a campaign run through e-mail (obviously). Perhaps some of the other scribes could describe it to you in more detail... |

Welcome to Candlekeep Edial! I know the feeling about not having anyone particularly interested in D&D or the FR in your area and having to resort to continous play-throughs of BG etc
However I can say that here you will find more than enough information and discussions on those worthy subjects to keep you busy!

| Welcome to Candlekeep, Edial; I am another person with no close D&D fanatics about, but Alexis Merlin is quite correct; if there's anything that you need to know, there's always someone around who can help you! |

| Well met and welcome! As mentioned by the others scribes, please feel free to make yourself at home here and feel free to ask questions. |
"What's that," asked Mogget.
"Sardines," said Sam. "I knew they were standard rations, so I got a few tins for you."
"What are sardines?" Moggest asked suspiciously. "And why is there a key? Is this some sort of Abhorsen joke?"

Wohaa! Things jump on when you spend a full day out in the Sun. Well met Edial! I hope that you enjoy your stay here, and that it is productive.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while i pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore-
While i nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
