Burns candles Seeks help from a doctor of Chinese Medicine __ What I did After Discovering the Fountain of Youth __ Oh Boy! After getting past the ghost of Doris Gravlin at Victoria Golf Course I have discovered the Fountain of Youth. To anyone else this would be an amazing discovery but as I have been alive for over 500 years because of this Fountain I intend on destroying it. That was until very recently. At the beginning of the War of the Roses I was searching for food and trying not to get caught for poaching on the Knights land. I was tired and hid in a cave when the sun started to rise. In the cave was a stone bowl with sparking water in it. I was so thirsty I drank the entire bowl. As soon as I had finished drinking, the bowl disappeared. I ran out of the cave thinking it was magic and bumped right into the Knight. The Knight, knowing I was poaching, attacked me with his sword and left me for dead. A little while later I woke up to find my wound had healed and I was fine. For the next 525 years I travelled the world. Occasionally I would hear of a stone bowl or see it in my dreams. At first it was fun, and handy, not being able to die. After a while it got boring and lonely when all of my friends had grown old and died. I would leave my friends when they started to notice that I did not age like they did. I decided that my job in life was to find the bowl that held the Fountain of Youth, as it moves around the globe and destroy it. In the past few years I have discovered an island off the west coast of Canada. I feel as if I have been drawn here by my dreams. I now live in a lovely area of Victoria. I rent a wing of a converted Mansion paying for it from money I have accumulated over my life through various jobs. Sometimes lately I use fake documents that say I am a teen genius with a doctorate in History and I teach the odd class or give lectures. Recently I have met many interesting people that I really like. One is a girl! Liz is really nice and we go on dates but it can never work because of the obvious. Sometimes she tells me local ghost stories. A few weeks ago we went on a cemetery tour in Ross Bay Cemetery. I found the tour really cool because I like history and have discovered the bowl is often near where ghosts hang out. A week later we went to a lecture on ghosts in Victoria, after that I started eliminating locations. The bowl is always near rocks and usually hidden. I went to check out Victoria Golf Course and ran into the ghost of Doris, who has a nasty habit of walking through things and people. I hate that, it feels creep and cold. So after getting past her and sneaking past the greens keeper I have the stone bowl from my dreams. The original plan was to destroy the bowl by blowing it up like they do on ‘Myth Busters’ because that way it will not come back. Unfortunately I met Liz and I am now reconsidering destroying it. I am really lonely, and it would be fun to have a companion to go on adventures with but I had promised myself that this could not happen to any more people. It takes some of the fun out of life when you know you will be the last person around. Maybe if I just give her a small sip… I go home, really stressed about what I should do.
