**The First Snow of Winter** is a UK VHS release by BBC Worldwide Ltd on 25th December 1998.

## Description

**PLUS** special footage of the making of the film

A classic tale of friendship and survival

Winter is on the way, and on the west coast or Ireland, the birds are preparing to fly south, away from the freezing snows.

As the journey begins, a duckling called Sean makes a terrible mistake - he doesn't keep close to his family. The little duck falls behind because he's busy playing with the gulls instead. Then, after a near-miss with an aeroplane, Sean can no longer fly. He's stranded.

Lonely and scared, Sean meets up with Voley, a kind-hearted water vole. Voley is full of outlandish schemes to help the little duck. But in the end he, too, has to leave Sean all alone.

So now Sean must face the greatest challenge of his life - how will he survive the first snow of winter?

The Strangest Stranger

**The Strangest Stranger** is the tenth track featured on Get Scared's second studio album, *Everyone's Out to Get Me*.

## Lyrics

It's too late what a waste

You're a stranger

Shoving your words down my throat

If it's helping I'll put you to bed

With the truth cause you need it the most

I can hear the children talking

Screaming you're a wreck

If you think you're so convincing

Where's your self-respect?

I can't feel sorry for you

No

I can't watch you throw it all away

I'm not like you

Every day you make the same mistakes

I can't follow you

In a chase, so ashamed, you're in danger

Of spending your nights all alone

As you fail through the same fake emotions

Retracing your steps like a ghost

I can hear the children talking

Screaming you're a wreck

If you think you're so convincing

Where's your self-respect?

I can't feel sorry for you

No

I can't watch you throw it all away

I'm not like you

Every day you make the same mistakes

I can't follow you

And I can't watch you go down

And drag my name through the ground

Everyday you make the same mistakes

I can't follow you

Take a knife and throw it at my face

Treat us like we're a number all the same

Doesn't make a difference if it hurts

You will stoop so low where you deserve

Give me your best shot

Give me your curse

You're fucking toxic

You've shown me what you're worth

Give me your best shot

Give me your curse

You're fucking toxic

You've shown me exactly what you're worth

I can't feel sorry for you

Oh no I can't

Oh no I can't

I can't watch you throw it all away

I'm not like you

Every day you make the same mistakes

I can't follow you

And I can't watch you go down

And drag my name through the ground

Everyday you make the same mistakes

I can't follow you

I can't follow you
Conch Pearls

**Conch Pearls** are pearls produced by the conch. They are one of the most valuable of all natural pearls and are extremely rare. Conch pearls contain no nacre which means that they are not proper pearls. Instead, the gems are calcareous concretions, similar to kidney stones in humans. Conch pearls and nacreous pearls have the same chemical composition the only difference between them is their polycrystalline structures.

## Appearance

Conch Pearls are mostly pink but they can occur in a range of shades, including white, brown, orange, beige and ivory. The most valuable colours are deep rose red to salmon orange. Most conch pearls are baroque and it is extremely rare to find one perfectly round.
Take a Bow

**Take a Bow** is the eighth track featured on Get Scared's third studio album, *Demons*.

## Lyrics

Hiding out in shadowed disguise

In hopes to keep you alive

Has come to be the only way I've known you

Regenerate and revive just like a ghost in the night

But I'll be damned if that's the fate I fall to

No I think it's time to let this go

Cause now I'm

Finding a way to replace all the hate

You threw me away now I'm left with your shame

You left me to feel dead and thrown to the wolves

Reflect and reveal how you shattered my soul

If there was ever a time you had hope in your eyes

Then believe me

You're still a father of mine

Take a look inside of my mind

And see the hell you've designed

Once filled with hatred and I can't feel a thing

And now there's not a hope in sight

Just open wounds you left behind

Become another enemy and leave us rotting

No I think it's time to let this go

Cause now I'm

Finding a way to replace all the hate

You threw me away now I'm left with your shame

You left me to feel dead and thrown to the wolves

Reflect and reveal how you shattered my soul

If there was ever a time you had hope in your eyes

Then believe me

You're still a father of mine

I'll finally forgive

This doesn't mean that

I won't forget all the regret again

Finding a way to replace all the hate

You threw me away now I'm left with your shame

You left me to feel dead and thrown to the wolves

Reflect and reveal how you shattered my soul

If there was ever a time you had hope in your eyes

Then believe me

You're still a father of mine

You're still a father of mine

Coin Pearls

**Coin Pearls** are a type of Baroque Pearls.

     The name coin pearls originated from the process of transplanting a coin-shaped nucleus, instead of the traditional round nucleus, into a mollusk.

## Appearance

Coin Pearls are shaped like flat buttons with a smooth bottom. They are able to reflect light particularly well because they have a much larger flat surface than other pearls. This provides them with a spectacular luster. They are extremely appreciated in the jewelry making business because they can be used for amazing pieces, such as baroque pearl necklaces or baroque pearl earrings.

## Price

When coin pearls were first introduced, they were quite expensive, but as their popularity increased, they became more common and prices went down.

About Pearls

A pearl is a hard object produced within the soft tissue (specifically the mantle) of a living shelled mollusk. Just like the shell of a clam, a pearl is composed of calcium carbonate in minute crystalline form, which has been deposited in concentric layers.
Pearls being considered lesser gems could be based off the fact that pearls are not "real" gemstones, but are instead organic, being formed by mollusks.
As organic gemstones, pearls belong to the same group as ammolite, coral, ivory, jet and amber. These are all formed as a result of biological processes.
Pearl is one of three birthstones for the month of June as adopted by the American National Association of Jewelers in 1912. It is also the birthstone for the Sun Signs of Gemini and Cancer. Pearls are also given on the third and thirteenth anniversaries.
Pearl is the national gemstone of the Philippines.
The name "pearl" is said to have originated from the Middle English word "perle", which in turn came from the Latin word "perna", meaning "leg", thought to be due to the ham-leg shape of the bivalve mollusc.
Pearls vary in color from white to those with a hint of color, often pink, to brown or black. Each coloration will depend on the type of mollusk and the water where the mollusk lived.
Pearls come in white, off-white, cream, golden, peach, pink, black, silver, lavender, and blue.
Some pearls exhibit iridescence, which is known as orient. Orient can be predominantly one color such as green or pink, or consist of a rainbow of colors in weak, moderate, or strong appearances.
The colors of pearls also have sometimes been associated with certain qualities: black or gold with wealth, blue with love, pink with success.
Pearls have been harvested and cultivated primarily for use in jewelry, but in the past were also used to adorn clothing. They have also been crushed and used in cosmetics, medicines and paint formulations.
Pearls are thought to give wisdom through experience, to quicken the laws of karma and to cement engagements and love relationships. They are thought to keep children safe.
Pearls are quite "soft" and range between 2.5 and 4.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness. Because the nacre is organic, pearls are very sensitive to extreme heat, acids, dryness, and humidity.
Although pearls are relatively soft, they are extremely compact, which makes them durable and resistant to being crushed.

Mother of Pearl

**Mother of Pearl** (also known as nacre) is the coating developed when pearls are created. It is often used to decorate jewellery.

     Like pearls, mother-of-pearl comes from all over the world and can be found in saltwater and freshwater. Mother-of-pearl sources include Australia, Japan, Central America, the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Manaar (between India and Sri Lanka), Madagascar, Burma (Myanmar), the Philippines, the South Pacific Islands, South America, China, French Polynesia, Europe, North America and Southeast Asia.

## Appearance

Like pearls, mother-of-pearl can be white, gray, silver, yellow, blue-green, bronze, pink, red, brown, black or banded. Mother-of-pearl tends to be used mostly as inlay, or carved into cameos and other fancy shapes, such as flowers. Cameos are sometimes placed onto a contrasting backing, to make them stand out.
Вампиры вселенной "Братьев Бури"

**Вампиры** - фракция во Вселенной Братьев Дури.

## История

Вампиры, именующие себя Кланом Волкихар, с давних пор обитали на территории Скайрима. Их лидер - лорд Харкон, является чистокровным вампиром, получившим свой "дар" от самого Принца даэдра Молага Бала. Об истории клана известно очень немного. В основном, вампиры обособленно существовали на северо-западе Скайрима, стараясь не вступать в конфликты с местными, и лишь иногда наведывались в людские поселения за пропитанием.

Однако, в период событий сериала ситуация резко меняется: в конце седьмой серии Харкон заключает сделку с Призраком, и тот обещает им свою поддержку в войне против Братьев Дури. Но на помощь последним приходит Локир, который дает им танки и нелорное оружие, позволяющее эффективно противостоять вампирам. Братья Дури начинают наступление на замок Волкихар, в ходе сражения погибает Харкон и большая часть членов клана. Вероятней всего после этого, вампиры, как организованная сила, перестали существовать.
Канон

Также официальным источником можно считать данную вики, так как все статьи пишутся людьми, связанными с **TESFANом** напрямую или даже им самим, и вся информация проходит строгий контроль.

Темный Лорд

**Темный Лорд** - один из главных персонажей Вселенной Братьев Дури, выступает вторым главным антагонистом сериала после Призрака.

## Темный Лорд

### Союзники

Призрак, вампиры, некроманты, бандиты, Изгои

## Биография

О том, кто такой Темный Лорд и как он появился, в сериале пока что не говориться. Известно лишь, что он внешне похож на Локира и, вероятно, как-то связан с ним. Но, в отличии от Локира, Темный Лорд куда выше, крепче и обладает значительно более развитой мускулатурой.

Темный Лорд появился вместе с Призраком в первой части девятой серии, где использовал свою силу, чтобы захватить разумы солдат Братьев Дури, а также членов Пенитус Окулатус, воинов Талмора и стражников в Рифтене. Кроме того он пытался также проникнуть в разум Глантира, чтобы получить некую информацию, но благодаря вмешательству Глена, эта попытка обернулась провалом. Впоследствии Темный Лорд также заявился на Солстхейм и попытался переманить на свою сторону Довагина, но потерпел поражение в схватке с Мираком и телепортировался в неизвестном направлении.

## Особые способности

* Развитая физическая сила;
* Глубокие познания в двемерских технологиях;
* Высокие магические навыки;
* Телепатия и телекинез;
* Умение контролировать разум любого существа.
Keshi Pearls

**Keshi Pearls** are the rarest and most popular type of Baroque Pearls.

     They are formed when the mollusk rejects part of the seed. The pearl still continues to develop. This is why they do not have a center particle. The word keshi means poppy seed in Japanese and they are often referred to as poppy seed pearls.

## Appearance

Keshi Pearls are mainly composed of nacre. They appear to be very long and have a very high luster.

## Jewellery

Due to their shapes, Keshi pearls are often used to make jewellery. They are used to make earrings, necklaces, bracelets and sometimes pendants.
Гор

Гор - второстепенный персонаж Вселенной Братьев Дури. Вместе со своим братом-близнецом Сетом является наемником на службе у Шеогората.

### Фракция

Маги-цаэски (в прошлом) Служит Шеогорату в качестве наемника

### Союзники

Шеогорат, Сет, Братья Дури, Ирвинг, Арибор

## Биография

Гор, как и брат Сет, родился в королевстве народа цаэски, что на Акавире, вероятней всего во времена или же через некоторое время после вторжения Уриэля V на континент. Они были выбраны, как самые талантливые и потенциально могущественные маги и отданы на обучение мастерам боевых и магических искусств. После многих лет упорных тренировок, Гор и Сет стали служить Шеогорату, который наделил их рядом сверхъестественных способностей, в частности фактическим бессмертием. По словам самого Сета, Шеогорат развлекался в течение долгих лет, убивая их разными способами. Однако, он позволил им сохранить рассудок в целостности, объяснив это тем, что у него и так огромное количество безумных слуг, а ему нужен кто-то, кто сможет хорошо выполнять свою работу в здравом уме.

Исходя из внутренней хронологии вселенной, первый раз появился за несколько лет до образования Братьев Дури и, совместно со своим братом, спас Ульфрика из талморской тюрьмы. Впоследствии также воскресил Локира по приказу Шеогората. В ходе событий одиннадцатой серии вместе с Сетом прибывают в Ривервуд, чтобы спасти Ирвинга и Арибора от слуг Темного Лорда. В противостоянии с ними погибает, но Сету удается расправиться с противником.

## Примечание

* По словам самого Сета, Гор слабее его, хотя они и братья-близнецы;
* Не известно, как выглядит его лицо.

## Особые способности

* Почти полное бессмертие;
* Телепортация;
Чпокир

**Чпокир** - второстепенный персонаж Вселенной Братьев Дури, отец Локира.

## Биография

Родился и всю свою жизнь провел в Рорикстеде. Был женат, однако его жена умерла при родах.

Стремясь обеспечить своего новорожденного сына всем необходимым, Чпокир проводил дни, неустанно работая своей мотыгой в поле. Когда Локир немного подрос, его отец заставлял его каждый день смотреть на то, как он работает, пытаясь привить сыну такую же любовь к фермерскому делу. Но Локир не проявлял никакого интереса к отцовскому делу, что Чпокир, однако, игнорировал. Впрочем, его безразличное отношение к сыну в итоге привело к серьезному конфликту между ними, когда Локир отказался вступать в Орден сынов земель Рорикстеда. В конечном счете Чпокир смог примириться с сыном и принять его стремление стать кем-то большим, чем простым фермером. После этого Чпокир стал тренировать своего сына, чтобы сделать его человеком.

Чпокир умер своей смертью, простудившись на поле, и был похоронен близь Рорикстеда. На его могилу была возложена его любимая мотыга.

## Личность и черты характера

Не смотря на несправедливое к нему отношение сохранял оптимизм и умел получать удовольствие от жизни. Изначально Чпокир кажется несколько черствым и деспотичным, не интересуется желаниями сына и заставляет его делать только то, что сам считает правильным. Однако, как выясняется впоследствии, Чпокир делал это все исключительно ради блага своего сына. Кроме того, в какой-то момент он проявил понимание и смог найти язык со своим сыном, что показывает Чпокира в целом хорошим, пусть и иногда ошибающимся в воспитании, отцом.

## Особые способности

* Способен неустанно махать мотыгой;
* Судя по всему, владеет навыками боя на мечах.
