Hey all, I was chatting with my sis yesterday, and came up with an interesting Poll question, which I have decided to share: Where would you go, if you were limited in your time there?
I know that what people vote for will depend on their personal favorite of the three, but also then answer me this:
WHY would you choose what you do over the others?
WHAT would you do there?
WHO would you want to meet?
WHEN would you want to be there? (during a specific Movie/Book time?)
WHERE would you want to be when you got there?

I picked Narnia, athough I've never read Star Wars or LotR (that's what the "Middle Earth" is from right?) so I'm slightly biased (LotR is on my to read list though)
Why? Because Narnia is so dear to me. Because everything is alive and because you can talk with animals and trees. Because it has captured my imagination since I first read the books. Because it almost feels like a part of me belongs there.
What? I would dance with the trees, explore the world, search for the white stag, and fight for Narnia if need be. I'd travel as far as I could in 5 min.
Who? Aslan, Tumnus, Reepicheep, Bree, and/or Jewel
When? Ummmm....... I can't pick... I'd have to think for a while.
Where? By the lamppost (although the Eastern Sea, Cair Paravel, and Beruna are high up there too- And Aslan's How)

Narnia and the North!!!!!!!!!
WHY would you choose what you do over the others? Because it is the BEST!!!!
WHAT would you do there? I would dance with the fauns
WHO would you want to meet? Aslan
WHEN would you want to be there? (during a specific Movie/Book time?) The Golden Age
WHERE would you want to be when you got there? The Dancing Lawn

I would choose Narnia in a heartbeat! I think I would always choose Narnia over anything else though!
WHY: I would choose Narnia because it has changed my life completely and inspired me beyond anything else. I cherish the books and the films all the more because they have made such an impact on me. So, to truly find myself in Narnia (although I already have in a way...) would be the most beautiful of moments.
WHAT: I would try to find a horse, so I could gallop through Narnia and just embrace the beauty of this world. If it were nighttime, I would love to lie under the stars and gaze at them!
WHO: I would most want to meet Aslan, but also the Pevensie's!
WHEN: I think I'd choose being there when...I really don't know, but perhaps when the White Witch was defeated and during the coronation ceremony of the Pevensie's!
WHERE: I'm not sure...I think it would be really beautiful to come into Narnia through the cave where the Pevensie's appeared in PC, but I think it would also be beautiful to be at Aslan's How.
We have nothing, if not belief.

I love narnia and Middle earth, but I went with Middle Earth, since you can spend 5 years there. If the option was 5 years for Narnia, I have no idea what I would have chosen!

I would choose Middle Earth.
WHY would you choose what you do over the others?
Simply because I can spend five years there. 5 minutes isn't enough time to do much of anything, where as 5 years is enough time to do just about anything I'd want!
WHAT would you do there?
Visit everywhere except Mordor.
WHO would you want to meet?
Everyone that I could, but especially Gimli, Merry, and Pippin.
WHEN would you want to be there? (during a specific Movie/Book time?)
Definitely during the 4th age.
WHERE would you want to be when you got there?
The shire. It seems like it would be the most calm and hospitable place to begin. Once I became more experienced, I could visit other places.
MIDDLE EARTH!!!!!!!
WHY would you choose what you do over the others?
Because it's where my absolute favorite book takes place!
WHAT would you do there? Visit the characters that are in the book. Explore a bit.
WHO would you want to meet?
Hmm... Bilbo. Definitely Pippin. It would be fun to meet Gandalf, Thorin, Sam, and Merry too. And you know what would be really interesting? Meeting Smeagol before he got the ring, to see what he was like then.
WHEN would you want to be there? (during a specific Movie/Book time?)
Either during the Hobbit, or a little before LOTR takes place. And like I said above, 500 years before, before Smeagol found the ring.
WHERE would you want to be when you got there?
The Shire, obviously, since most of my favorite characters are there, and it seems to be the most peaceful place. Hmm... Rivendell maybe? Places Bilbo went on his journey. And Smaug's cave (after the events described in The Hobbit had already taken place).

I'm unsure whether Narnia or Hyrule (Zelda series). Both places are fantastic and have their own unique mythos and atmosphere.

I just want to be hidden in the shadows... this silence; this cold.
