Where: Internet

In 2004, I was searching on the internet for some sites concerning the game Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. I found something about some channels, on IRC. I didn't know what that was at that time, but I asked a friend and downloaded mIRC. After a few hours, I learned how it worked, and I tried connecting to that server and channel. It was in the middle of August that I joined #elderscrolls for the first time, in irc.chatspike.net. Then, I started asking some questions I had in mind about the game. Someone said something, and I replied "voila", and then, some other guy, named Ordie started speaking french with me. I went into PMing with him, and spoke a bit more french, then he told me that he hated french. We started talking about various stuff, like books (The Da Vinci Code etc), and then, we found this site, www.priory-of-sion.org, which had a riddle. This wasn't more than two weeks after we had first met. This quest on solving the riddle was the beacon of our friendship. Since then, we've shared lots of secrets, had many 5-hour conversations, talked through Skype, supported each another, played RPGs and all that stuff :D He is by far one of the greatest persons anyone could ever meet (well, not meet exactly - yet ;P)!
