El camino del héroe - The path of the hero

El camino del héroe

Pocas veces uno puede presenciar grandes conquistas. Quizá la de este año sea una de ellas que resume el camino del héroe. Un camino de hechizos, de lepra, de llanto. Un drama. Para nosotros una historia de amor.

Al principio, generalmente siempre se trata de un personaje anónimo, era un desconocido allende su comarca. Dicen que nació en un barrio de leprosos y que una bruja, que había visto el futuro llena de envidia, le lanzó una maldición. Este individuo emprende un viaje en busca de una cura para liberarse del hechizo y se aleja de su tierra para comenzar a recorrer un camino nuevo, lleno de dificultades, lleno de desafíos siguiendo un sueño. 

Fue recibido por en un Reino en donde sus magos lograron superar la maldición. Entonces, recién ahí pudo comenzar a entrenar a pleno. Los éxitos comienzan a llegar. Ya no se trata de un desconocido, de un anónimo, su nombre comienza a tomar vuelo. Es viroteado, aplaudido en una de las cortes del nuevo Reino. Con pases de héroes de ese entonces terminó su formación. Llegó así al reconocimiento absoluto, pero desde su tierra le llamaron "el extranjero". 

Alzó los colores de su tierra natal y los defendió de joven exitosamente. El éxito de su empresa se vuelve estrepitoso. Su nombre brilla en el mundo. Fue tentado en defender otros colores, los colores del Reino que le curó su maldición pero el héroe se negó. En el camino de la defensa de los colores de su terruño estrechó la mano de dios. Sin embargo, los logros no lo acompañaron con la misma suerte en los desafíos que enfrentó en defensa de su tierra y fue duramente cuestionado por los chamanes de las palabras. El reconocido héroe, afligido, casi sin comprender la reacción de sus compatriotas se refugió en el amor de su familia. Con ellos reflexionó.  Y recordó sus orígenes. 

Y, se puso de pie para continuar luchando por el sueño propio y colectivo. Y tropezó otra vez. Y una más. Y otra. Y se volvió a poner de pie una y otra vez. Con una sonrisa, con ánimo, con amor. Quizá la parte más rica de esta gesta es que el héroe aún con toda su riqueza, con todas sus posibilidades no podría nunca adquirir ese sueño esquivo. Un sueño que no tenía precio y sólo podía lograrse al superarse las pruebas. Tuvo desencuentros, pero no bajo los brazos. Continuó en su larga marcha para el logro de la mayor proeza y su esfuerzo fue coronado en tierra de grandes guerreros, en la tierra de los djinn. Con una gran equipo Allí abrazó el sueño propio y colectivo


Esta es la historia de Lionel Andrés Messi. Futbolista. Argentino. Rosarino. Soñador. Inspirador. 


Desde @GamesofTurtle rendimos este humilde homenaje un padre de familia que con esfuerzo cumplió su sueño. 

Muchas gracias!

The path of the hero

Seldom one can witness great conquests. Maybe this year´s deed sums up the way of the hero. A way full of spells, leprosy, and crying. A drama. But to us, a love story. 


In the beginning, it´s usually about an anonymous character. He was a stranger beyond his shire. It´s said that he was born in a leppers´ neighborhood and that a witch, full of envy had beheld the future and cursed him. This man sets out on a journey seeking a cure for the spell and moves away from his land to start to travel a new path, full of hardships and challenges, chasing a dream. 


He is welcomed in a realm in whose sorcerers sought to beat the curse. And that´s how he could start training fully. Successes gradually popped up. He is no longer an unknown, anonymous, he makes a name for himself. He is cheered, and applauded by that realm´s courts. He grew up and trained with the heroes of that time until he finished his training. Thus he reached absolute recognition, but from his land they called him "the foreigner." 


He raised the colors of his homeland and defended them bravely. His journey´s success precedes him. His name is now known worldwide. He was tempted to stand for other colors, for instance, those of the realm that found a cure to his curse but our hero stood his ground. In his way of defending his homeland´s colors, he shook God´s hand. He defeated various enemies and bosses. Nevertheless, his achievements didn´t follow him with the same luck as the challenges he faced while defending his land, and was heavily questioned by the shamans of words from his land. The acknowledged hero, sorrowful, and almost disabled to understand his fellows´ reactions, sheltered himself in the love of his family. He reflected with them and remembered his origins. 

And, he stood up to continue fighting for his own and collective dream. And he stumbled again. And one more. And another. And he got back to his feet again and again. With a smile, with encouragement, with love. Perhaps the richest part of his achieve is that the hero, even with all his wealth, with all his possibilities, could never get that elusive dream. A dream that was priceless and could only be achieved by passing the tests. He had disagreements, but not low his arms. He continued on his long march to the accomplishment of the greatest deed and his effort was crowned in the land of great warriors, in the land of the djinn. With a great team There he embraced his own and collective dream

This is the story of Lionel Andrés Messi. Soccer player. The GOAT. Argentinian. Rosarino. Dreamer. Inspiring.


From @GamesofTurtle we pay this humble tribute to a family man who with effort fulfilled his dream.

Thanks a lot!

Medieval Fair: Expo Eärlindë Tolkien


Its name comes from Quenya - known as an ancient language - and means Ear (sea) and Linde (Song). Eärlindë or Song of the Sea is a space where the world of Middle-earth comes alive at the hands of thousands of people who come to keep alive the spirit of J.R.R.'s work. Tolkien.

Within this space, language workshops of the Quendi or Eldar, that is, the elves, are offered. The language of Legolas, Fingolfin, Finarfin and Galádriel and other heroes of the work, understanding it in its entirety. 

As in all medieval fairs, recreational and recreational events are held and promoted to share the culture of Middle Earth. These medieval fairs have been held on weekends for years, bringing together different activities ranging from art to gastronomy. Dressed as knights, monks, nobles and more, those who attend these events are looking for some of the mystique of that time that translates into sword fights and craft fairs.

There are also dances to the sound of medieval music and you cannot miss the gastronomy and craft beer of small entrepreneurs who take advantage of the occasion to make their way along with activities such as archery. During the Eärlindë Tolkien Expo, fantasy authors who want to take a few moments to read fragments of the Silmarillion or the Lord of the Rings among other stories are also generally invited.

It is a space in which cosplayers also have their place in events. Men and women compete for their best clothing of elves, mountaineers, knights of Gondor, Hobbits and Valar and why not orcs and trolls.

Whether out of curiosity, looking for an alternative program for a weekend or simply for fun, Eärlindë Tolkien is a space to interrupt the routine and take a break from the fantastic world.

Feria Medieval: Expo Eärlindë Tolkien

Eärlindë Tolkien

Su nombre proviene del Quenya - conocida como lengua antigua - y significa Ear (mar) y Linde (Canción). Eärlindë o Canción de Mar es un espacio en donde el mundo de la Tierra Media cobra vida de la mano de miles de personas que se acercan para mantener vivo el espíritu de la obra de J.R.R. Tolkien.
Dentro de este espacio se ofrecen talleres de lengua de los quendi o eldar, es decir, los elfos. El idioma de Légolas, Fingolfin, Finarfin y Galádriel y otros héroes de la obra comprendiendola en toda su extensión.
 
Como en toda feria medieval se realizan y promocionan eventos lúdicos y de esparcimiento para compartir la cultura de la Tierra Media. Estas ferias medievales hace años que se realizan en fines de semana aglutinando distintas actividades que van desde el arte hasta la gastronomía. Ataviados como caballeros, monjes, nobles y demás, quienes concurren a estos eventos están buscando algo de la mística de esa época que se traduce en combates con espadas y ferias de artesanos. 

También hay bailes al son de música medieval y no puede faltar la gastronomía y la cerveza artesanal de pequeños emprendedores que aprovechan la ocasión para abrirse paso junto a actividades como tiro con arco. Durante la Expo Eärlindë Tolkien también generalmente se invita a autores de fantasía que quieran dedicar unos momentos para leer fragmentos del Silmarillion o del Señor de los Anillos entre otros relatos. 

Es un espacio en el cual los cosplayers también tienen su lugar en los eventos. Hombres y mujeres compiten por su mejor indumentaria de elfos, montaraces, caballeros de Gondor, Hobbits y Valar y porqué no orcos y trolls. 
Ya sea por curiosidad, por buscar un programa alternativo un fin de semana o simplemente por diversión, Eärlindë Tolkien es un espacio para interrumpir la rutina y tomarse una pausa en el mundo fantástico.

From Games of Turtle we join the festivities and celebrations of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe because they turn 40 years old.

The plot of He-man responds to the hybrid genre of sword and sorcery and technological science fiction. He-Man battles Skeletor to prevent him from discovering the secrets of Castle Grayskull, an ancient fortress that holds great power and magic to conquer Eternia.


Since MOTU have accompanied us through a wide spectrum, from television shows, comics and anime, toys, movies, and today we are joined by the Masters of the Universe from Netflix streaming platform with Revelations.

Here are some pictures of the different eras.









Let's keep celebrating!!!
