Second Life 2

Everybody is born and Second Life is not an exception of that. Although the avatar is not born naked, unlike the real world, anyway he/she would like to belong somewhere. To be a part of something, to be a member of some community, to find friends, anyway to belong somewhere. Same or similar history befell also me after my materializing in the world of Second Life. I also groped a lot of, but I learned myself, but as I wrote elsewhere I had absolutely excellent mentor. One could expect that it shouldn’t span long time and I found the community of Czech and Slovak (CS) here, as I am Czech even though from Moravia. However, something was still missing. Some strong point, where I could return and where the main gross of CS avatar is concentrated. There was nothing for long time, no place and no island. However, then it happened something what all awaited. The mists of Avalon disappeared. Word for word. The city called Bohemia rose on part of island behind the AVALON DESIGN shop behind the rock. However, it is necessary to search Bohemia in Second Life under the old name of my country – Czechoslovakia, but only temporarily. This city doesn’t exist anymore. It is only in memory of them that was there or in a form of ones and zeros as pictures in PC. What was there then? Watch the video here.

AVALON DESIGN SHOP



Avalon


So, back to Avalon yet. Do you know that Avalon or also Avignon are two names of mythic island of apple trees and Celtic priesthoods? The Celtic word abal means apple. In fact, it is the island, where the human souls come. They say that the mythic island Avalon is rest place of the legendary king Arthur and of his wife and where the sword Excalibur was forged. By the way, the shop AVALON DESIGN is still at the Avalon island a and it is excellent shop with skins. The owner name is known for Czech and Slovak community. It is Vilem Beaumont. He is also the author of SL fantasy adventure „Catacombs of Avalon“. The mists of Avalon covered up Bohemia for some time to appear in new beauty at new place after that. The new island Czechoslovakia with city Bohemia appeared. The Old City and New City expanded on flock of other nice places and buildings as the time goes. A little remained, a little changed or was changed and a little disappeared forever. What remains are the inhabitants of the city, who have taste here to stay and live. On the other hand, also the invisible men those care for city and so on. The following pictures maybe are not the characteristic sample, but look over.
