The Eosian Council

So what's this "Eosian Council" business all about?

As those of you who have read the Belgariad will know, there's an occasional event in that series called "The Alorn Council". In theory, it's a chance for the Alorn monarchs to get together and discuss matters of state (conference calls not having been invented yet). In practice, they discuss matters of state for about five minutes and then go off and get completely out of their skulls. So, in homage to this fine tradition, when the time came to give a name to the UK alt.fan.eddings (AFE) meet, the name pretty much had to involve a Council somewhere. For the sake of variety, we chose places from the Elenium series instead, and Yanek named the UK meet "The Eosian Council" (or tEC). Eosia's the "home" continent in the Elenium; since we in the UK seem to have about the largest contingent of regulars on AFE, we were the first to meet, so we claimed it.

For the sake of completeness, I should say that there are various other Councils in the works; I have some links to their websites in my photos index.

tEC1 took place in Maeshafn, a village in the middle of nowhere in Wales, on 6 November 1998. It was fun. :) And there are lots and lots of photos of this event ...

I suppose I should be polite and direct you first to some of the other sites with tEC1 photos. They're owned by:

But look at this one first, please :)
