The Fisher King

It begins with the king as a boy, having to spend the night alone in the forest to prove his courage so he can become king. Now while he is spending the night alone he's visited by a sacred vision. Out of the fire appears the holy grail, symbol of God's divine grace. And a voice said to the boy, "You shall be keeper of the grail so that it may heal the hearts of men." But the boy was blinded by greater visions of a life filled with power and glory and beauty. And in this state of radical amazement he felt for a brief moment not like a boy, but invincible, like God, so he reached into the fire to take the grail, and the grail vanished, leaving him with his hand in the fire to be terribly wounded. Now as this boy grew older, his wound grew deeper. Until one day, life for him lost its reason. He had no faith in any man, not even himself. He couldn't love or feel loved. He was sick with experience. He began to die. One day a fool wandered into the castle and found the king alone. And being a fool, he was simple minded, he didn't see a king. He only saw a man alone and in pain. And he asked the king, "What ails you friend?" The king replied, "I'm thirsty. I need some water to cool my throat". So the fool took a cup from beside his bed, filled it with water and handed it to the king. As the king began to drink, he realized his wound was healed. He looked in his hands and there was the holy grail, that which he sought all of his life. And he turned to the fool and said with amazement, "How can you find that which my brightest and bravest could not?" And the fool replied, "I don't know. I only knew that you were thirsty."

"I saw another set of photos from the late 19th century that claimed ti be inside the Earth-not Argartha but a dark place with strange looking humans-the flora and fauna were strange, too. There were dozens of pics that looked genuine, but they were…"

"Having pituitary gigantism couldn’t have been easy, especially considering it causes so many ailments. It makes you appreciate the importance of proportion.. I think I’ll stick to being 5’5!"

"AE, It’s definitely an unusual look and they seem much taller than any human giants you see nowadays. I think they’re humans with pituitary gigantism? They probably spent years scouting the globe for the most extreme cases and rounded them all up to…"
