MHolycraft [12:44 AM]: I think I put more thought into the outfits than stats


Spitfire, February 2004

Treasure hunting was addictive, but we had limited ourselves by the number of coins we took with us:

[Treasure Hunt, Seaside]
The gentle sounds of waves breaking on a light-colored sand beach fill the air. A series of small dunes dot the edge of the beach, marking the perimeter. A cracked and aged wooden signpost leans haphazardly to one side, and the wall into which a hatch is set is a magnificent mural of a wide-open ocean dotted with white clouds. Thin torches line the beach, each about chest high to a halfling. You also see a worn sandal and a wall-mounted trash chute.
Also here: Yarx, Adredrin, Eairus
Obvious exits: north, northeast, northwest

Adredrin put an Icemule promissory note in his grey satin cloak.

You ask, "Oh oh...did the halfling take a note?"

Eairus asks, "Did the halflin' take your note?"

You cock your head at Adredrin.

You fidget.

Adredrin says, "Nope."

Eairus wipes the sweat from his brow.

Yarx wipes the sweat from his brow.

You give a sigh of relief.

You blink.

Danay blinks at you.

You glance at a veniom-inlaid rolaren tower shield.

Danay says, "Wow."

You dust off a veniom-inlaid rolaren tower shield.

You ask, "Impressive, no?"

You flash a wide grin.

Danay nods to you.

Danay says, "Very."


Laleena exclaims, "Gimme my damned bunny!"

(Context unimportant, it's funny no matter what.)


>cman disarm che

What did the chest ever do to you?


One night in Temple Wyneb:

A bat crawls through a hole in the wall and flies directly at Morgannia! It clings to Morgannia's hair, and starts flapping its wings madly while screeching with all its might. Stumbling blindly around the room, she frantically tries to dislodge the bat. She trips over a rock and falls flat on her face! The bat releases its grip, gives a triumphant screech and flies out of the area.


You are now in an offensive stance.

A hunch-backed dogmatist mutters a harsh rite.

amb dog l leg
You cannot ambush with a sloppy vermilion longcoat!

Eairus gestures at a hunch-backed dogmatist.
The ground beneath a hunch-backed dogmatist begins to boil violently!
Fiery debris explodes from the ground!
... 10 points of damage! Light blow to back.
... 20 points of damage! Nasty burns to abdomen, a hunch-backed dogmatist shrieks in pain!
The hunch-backed dogmatist is stunned!
The ground then quickly cools.

amb dog l leg
You cannot ambush with a sloppy vermilion longcoat!

You put a sloppy vermilion longcoat in your purple greatcloak.

You stare at nothing in particular.

You remove a shimmering vultite longsword from in your amazon harness.

Eairus laughs!

Eairus starts chortling.

Speaking in Elven, you say, "Hush."

Eairus leans on his runestaff.

Speaking in Elven, Eairus asks, "Trying to startle it with the flashy colors or frighten it with the bad stitching?"

Speaking in Elven, you say, "Whatever works."

You grin.


7/17/04

Morgannia looks a bit unsteady.

Morgannia stands up.

Eairus rubs Morgannia gently.

Morgannia sways back and forth.

The sickly pallor seems to fade from Morgannia.

Eairus says, "I know what'll make ye feel better."

Eairus nods to Morgannia.

Morgannia asks, "And what is that?"

Eairus gestures at you.
Eairus hurls a surge of electricity at you, causing a crackling halo of static to swirl about your head, standing all your hair straight on end. How silly!

Eairus grins at Morgannia.

Morgannia laughs!

Eairus points at you.

You stare at Eairus.

Eairus cackles!

Manzier laughs!

You fold your arms over your chest.

Morgannia laughs!

Morgannia exclaims, "Perfect!"


7/23/04

[Griffin's Keen, Crossroads] This mostly level spot is a respite from the climb, but not from the wind that buffets you from all directions. Packed brown dirt pocked with eruptions of grey marble make the trail tricky in spite of its gentle slope.
You also see the Danay disk, the scorched Eairus disk and a stone outcropping.
Also here: Eairus
Obvious paths: east, west

Speaking in Elven, Eairus asks, "Do you know anything about these creatures?"

Speaking in Elven, you say, "Not a thing."

Eairus glances at you.

Speaking in Elven, you say, "Tis why it is an adventure."

You grin.

Speaking in Elven, Eairus says, "We're dead."


R>go fiss
[Griffin's Keen, Onyx Point] A short scramble up from here would place you on the mountain's peak, but the downward trail is steep and less than alluring. This bleak northern facing wall is worn almost smooth by the coursing wind. Layered with years of alternating snow and ice, its surface is black and almost featureless. You also see a jagged fissure.
Obvious paths: up, down
Eairus followed.

up
Rushing heedlessly up the slope, your feet slip on a patch of ice, sending you reeling. Spinning, your legs give way and you fall to the ground, sliding down the mountain!

[Griffin's Keen, Switchbacks] Grey snow gives way to black, ice-covered rock as the trail curves around a large ridge and starts to snake its way up the bleak, steep mountainside. Hollow sounding cries pierce the air from time to time, punctuating the almost constant wind.
Obvious paths: west, northwest

You stand back up.
Roundtime: 4 sec.

Eairus cocks his head at you.

You blush a delicate shade of pale pink.

Speaking in Elven, Eairus says, "Those were some rather interesting words you screamed out as you slid past me."

You laugh out loud!

You nod to Eairus.


7/27/04

I'd gotten turned around when trying to find a dead Laleena who had been taken off by a griffin...

[Griffin's Keen, Corrie]
After a final steep scramble, the trail widens out to a path that slopes to an end at a sheer drop off. About twenty feet below, the snowy valley floor is cut in half by the black stripe of a cold, rushing stream. Heavy pegs, pounded into the old ice, look like they have been there for generations. From the pegs, a knotted rope disappears over the side of the cliff. You also see a lesser griffin that is flying around.
Obvious paths: northwest, up
Manzier and Morgannia followed.

A lesser griffin flaps its mighty wings rapidly, creating a powerful gust of wind that buffets the area!
Manzier is knocked over by the wind!
Morgannia is knocked over by the wind!
The wind knocks you off your balance and you fall over!
Your arms are forced down to your sides!
Roundtime: 12 sec.
The wind then subsides.

You ask, "Where are we?"

Morgannia says, "On the ground."


1997

Iddybitty just arrived.

Iddybitty just went north.

You snicker.


November 2003 in the GSIV testing instance playing with new verbs:

Aurach says to Vasenya, "You, madam, are a bootless, boil-bottomed gnome-cruncher!"

Vasenya gasps.

Vasenya glares at Aurach.

Aurach says to you, "You, madam, are a goatish, rump-fed roa'ter wormling!"

You clutch your chest in mock horror.

You exclaim, "Sir, you wound me!"

Vasenya grins at you.

You are buffeted by the dark ethereal waves, but are somewhat shielded by the previous waves.

A krolvin warfarer barks some odd sounds.

You stand back up.

A krolvin warfarer gestures at Topah.
CS: +163 - TD: +102 + CvA: +12 + d100: +58 - -5 == +136
Warding failed!
A krolvin warfarer blasts Topah for 3 points of damage.

You say, "But you do"

You hear the ghostly voice of Topah say, "gah."

You hear the ghostly voice of Topah say, "looks as if i do."


5/28/1998 - Log is from the point of view of Pelendur

This was the first and last time I ever did a DS check! (I forgot that I had a weapon in my hand and had both Bravery and Heroism running.)

 

Megrim asks, "Can someone please swing at me very lightly?"

> * Megrim just bit the dust!

>Danay swings an onyx-hilted eonake falchion at Megrim!
AS: +79 vs DS: -6 with AvD: +36 + d100 roll: +45 = +166
... and hits for 46 points of damage!
Megrim is backed up by a strong slash to his abdomen!

* Megrim drops dead at your feet!

Suddenly there is an uproar, with people screaming, "Murderer! Quickly, someone call for the constable!"
Suddenly the town constable, supported by a sizeable posse, comes riding up!
The constable says, "So dere ya are Danay! We've a warrant for yar arrest. Now come 'long quietly or we'll hang ya right where ya stand."
With that, the deputies wrestle Danay to the ground, chain her and lift her onto a horse.
Without any hesitation the posse rides off with their prisoner.

>You hear the ghostly voice of Megrim exclaim, "What a moron!"

>You hear the ghostly voice of Megrim say, "Someone please slap Danay and explain to him the definition of very lightly."


8/12/97

>Snizzlesnert hands the fortuneteller a message. The fortuneteller inspects it carefully, appears satisfied and says to Snizzlesnert, "I knew you would be coming with this. I have seen you in my cards. A noble destiny awaits you if you perservere and remain loyal to yourself."

She continues in a soft voice, "All money is as ashes in the wind, but in this life great store is set by it, so I will reward you in the custom of the time."

With that, she hands Snizzlesnert some silvers and traces a symbol of blessing in the air then raises a hand in farewell.


8/97

>Baleford says, "A quote...'He who is good does not have much. He who has much is not good.'"


2/26/05

Suddenly a large group of burly giantmen appear and wrestle Dancingjesus to the ground. "Awright, Dancingjesus!" barks the leader. "Come along quietly now, and you won't get hurt!"


June 2005 in River's Rest

A strange ship had dropped anchor and people were yelling out to it...

 

Nilandia yells, "Lazy, good-for-nothings! Yellow-bellied sapsuckers!"

Balinworn asks, "Yer callin 'em woodpeckers?"

Balinworn peers quizzically at Nilandia.

Nilandia softly says, "It just sounded good."

Nilandia shrugs.

Balinworn says, "Ahh. Caught up in da moment an such. Ah know da feelin."

Balinworn yells, "Yer all a bunch o tufted finches!"


A hisskra shaman turns towards you with a scowling, toothy grimace and snaps his teeth together menacingly!

You glance at a hisskra shaman and slowly draw your finger across your throat meaningfully.


4/1/00 - Sylanae's Vow Renewel

I will now reveal a secret holy ritual used by priestesses to prepare for weddings...

[The Bride's Dressing Room]
This quiet, comfortably private dressing room provides a place to calm your nerves while you prepare for the ceremony. Soothing melodic tones whisper from a golden musicbox, easing your worries. You also see a long walnut table with some stuff on it, a shimmering portal and a full length mirror.
Also in the room: Sylanae, Senior GameHost Kyalia, Lady Tyraesa
Obvious exits: none.

You just poured yourself a flute of sparkling champagne. Cheers!!

You say, "Ready."

Sylanae blinks at you.

 

At the reception...

Leyahna winks at Tashalin.

Tashalin says, "I think you made the brownie fall down my gown."

Tashalin blinks.

You glance at Tashalin.

You snicker.

Tashalin glances at you.

Tashalin says, "Plan to make her look at least"

Tashalin whistles tunelessly to herself.

You grin at Tashalin.

(Danay looks for a brownie)

You just grabbed yourself a delicious looking gooey fudge brownie. Enjoy!!

You grin at Itiara.

Tashalin starts chuckling at you!

Itiara blinks at you.

Tashalin laughs!

Tashalin just tickled you.

You hum distractedly as your mind wanders.

Itiara says, "oooooh no you don't... "


4/2/00

Those pesky typo's...

[Olbin Pass, South Rim]
A rugged butte forms the southern edge of the pass. Below it, a concave bowl sweeps down towards the tree line, its curved depression filled with snow. Wandering through the forest beyond, a twisting trail can be seen leisurely making its way down the mountain. To the east and west, tall peaks cradle the pass.
You also see a frost-covered battle-axe and a frost-covered battle-axe.
Obvious paths: north, east, northeast, northwest.

Itiara just climbed up a rugged butte.

Slorne just climbed up a rugged butte.

(Itiara tilts her head back to howl... then stops)

Itiara screams at the top of her lungs!

With a loud crack, a cornice of snow high upon the western peak breaks free of the snowpack. The wave of white powder slides down the mountain, quickly gaining momentum as more snow is added to its furious stampede.

You say in elven, "When the trail was discovered..."

You blink at Itiara.

>e
[Olbin Pass]
Soaring overhead, the eastern peak guards this edge of the pass. Its base is formed by a sheer rock precipice which has been blasted smooth by the vicious winds. Deep furrows of snow cover the ground, the remains of avalanches fallen from above.
Obvious paths: north, west, northwest.
Slorne and Itiara followed.

Itiara blinks.

>n
[Olbin Pass, North Rim]
The mountain plunges to the north, stabbing downward past a rocky outcropping until it reaches the timberline below. Beyond the timberline, the slope levels to join a wide valley, its broad expanse disappearing into the distance. Trees and snow cover the undulating hills of the valley. Southwards, the pass ascends a short ridge framed by rugged peaks to the east and west.
You also see some grizzly hide leathers and an ice pick.
Obvious paths: south, west, southwest.
Slorne and Itiara followed.

You pant.

Slorne gulps.

You ask in elven, "Dear gods why did you do that?"

Itiara whispers to the group, "that was supposed to clear my throat......oooooooooops"

Itiara asks in elven, "something in my throat?"

Itiara coughs.

You whisper, "LOL!" to your group.

Slorne whispers to the group, "LOL good one!"

Itiara says in elven, "Just keeping you on your toes"

Itiara nods.


4/2/00

[Furryback's Pelt and Skin]
Stacks of hides and pelts cover the floor in this cramped shop, leaving a narrow trail to the counter. A bright-eyed halfling sits on top of the counter, sorting through a stack of skins as he talks to himself under his breath.
You also see a woven cloak.
Obvious exits: out.
Itiara and Slorne followed.

Itiara asks Furryback if he would like to buy a pair of caribou antlers.

(Slorne holds the antlers up on top of her head)

Slorne grins.

You grumble.

Shadowkatt glances at you.

You say, "Never mind, I will get it."

Shadowkatt nods to you.


4/26/00

Dantrotic bashing, an Elanthian passtime.

While investigating the tomb and discussing Thurfel...

. [Mausoleum, Grand Chamber]
A large, canopied tomb stands squarely in the center of the room. Remnants of gold leaf are still visible on some of the inside edges of the moldings on the canopy. Thick tiles of terra cotta, each embossed with the image of an oak leaf, line the base of the tomb. You also see some light leather, a dagger, a woven cloak, a woven cloak, a dagger and a woven cloak.
Also in the room: Mendanbarr, Lord Falvicar, Lady Iscikella, Frol, Aranrhod, Itiara
Obvious exits: south.

Aranrhod asks in elven, "What is this about Dantrotic claiming he knows?"

snort
You make a horrendous warthog-like noise.

Iscikella says in elven, "he doesn't, Aranrhod."

You say in elven, "Dantrotic claims all sorts of things."

Mendanbarr says in elven, "Dantrotic is a fool."

Aranrhod nods to you.

Aranrhod grins.

Mendanbarr says in elven, "I doubt he knows more than how to walk."

You nod to Mendanbarr.

Aranrhod chuckles.

You say in elven, "His silliest claim is to be a diplomate. He is about the least diplomatic person I have ever met."

Itiara starts chuckling at you!

Frol says in elven, "I've never met him"

Aranrhod says in elven, "No loss"

You say in elven, "You are lucky then."

Iscikella says in elven, "Ye're very lucky then, Frol."


Danay on proper temple behavior...

>go tem
[Hall of the Gods, Main Chapel]
The Temple has been carved from the ice of the glacier. A vaulted ceiling rises above you, carved with faint designs, and thick pillars etched with the symbols of the gods rise to meet the dome. The walls glimmer with light from the sun, adding divine ambiance to an already spectacular chamber. To the northwest is a passage, seemingly brighter than the rest, while the tunnel to the southeast looks darker than you would think possible in the well-lit Temple.
You also see an enruned maoral box.
Also in the room: Lord Darckdeath who is lying down, Blackcrimson, Thedwar who is kneeling, Lord Ossferatu who is kneeling, Redcell who is seated
Obvious exits: west, northwest, southeast, out.

Blackcrimson tries to pull Darckdeath to his feet, but he is too heavy.

Blackcrimson smiles.

You ask, "Have you no respect?"

Darckdeath bows.

Lord Darckdeath just went out.

Blackcrimson just went out.


5/25/00

[Thanatoph, Upper Landing]
Set before a massive stone stronghold is a landing shaped like a crescent moon. An enormous stone altar reigns over the landing, leaving very little room to maneuver. The wind tugs at you, forcing you to hold onto the altar to steady yourself. The landing below you appears small and forlorn, the ancient stone stairs their only lifeline. Behind the altar, a set of massive intricately carved ora double doors stand guard over the entrance to the stone stronghold. You also see a hawk that is flying around, the Tilarium disk, a grey mouse who is sitting and a hawk.
Also here: Lady Pyrocite, Elfstan, Lord Mikalmas, Lord Aldukar, Lady Karmah, Lord Randsford, Lord Tilarium, Lady Allequerie, Merryleon, Welan, Lord Roelon, Lady Titaniia, Drexla, Setzier, Lady Avira, Paladyr, Armaxis, Junis, Yarx, Nofret, Rawen, Xatier, Aranrhod
Obvious paths: none.

With a roar, Yarx lowers his shoulder, and charges the ora double doors!
His feet seem to get tangled, as he slams headfirst into the ora double doors, sinking slowly to the ground!

You glance over at Yarx and wince.

Merryleon says, "Ouch"

Allequerie winces.

Welan blinks.

Paladyr rubs Yarx gently.

Welan just tried to pull Yarx to his feet, but Yarx couldn't stand on his own and he falls over!

Yarx says, "Okay...oww.."

Yarx stands up.

Welan rubs Yarx gently.

Yarx says, "It's all right..that's why I wear a helmet."


5/25/00

Nofret says, "Please write this down--I'm not going to say it twice. Armaxis might be right."

Paladyr says, "know it must have hurt ta say that"


[Wehnimer's, Exterior]
You can hear the noisy bustle around the land gates to the west. Over the din, you can just barely hear the sound of the surf from the northeast. You also see a sign in front of the wagon, an elegant wagon and a sun-bleached pine gate.
Also here: Maji, Lord Rekarth, Lord Arianiss, Lord Roelon
Obvious paths: west, northeast.

Lady Lini's group just arrived.

Arianiss exclaims, "Lini!!"

Lini says, "Thank you so much for your patronage."

You try to pull Pelendur towards you.

Pelendur waves to you.

You exclaim, "What did you get?!"

You bow to Lini.

Roelon asks, "May i hitch a ride on the wagon?"

Roelon peers quizzically at Lini.

Lini says, "I will not be reopening, I'm afraid."

Lini smiles.

Pelendur says, "And thank you for bringing your wagon through town."

Pelendur removes an elegant midnight blue surcoat with sleeves puffed and slashed with silvery silk from in his black velvet cloak.

You beam at Pelendur.

You say, "Now you have to find an occasion to dress up."

You grin at Pelendur.

Pelendur starts chuckling at you!

Roelon asks, "Would ye know where ye next stop would be?"

Lini says, "Yes, but knowing and telling are two different things."

Lini winks.

You chuckle at Lini.

Lini hops onto the wagon and drives off.

You blink.

You say, "She is fast."

(Roelon leaps infront of the wagon, but is too late.)

The wagon runs over Roelon's foot.

You laugh out loud!

Roelon exclaims, "Argh!"

Roelon falls over.

You laugh out loud!

You hear the voice of Armaxis say, "Ha. Deserved it."

Arianiss points at Roelon.

Arianiss laughs!

Pelendur says, "Serves ya right."

Roelon mutters under his breath.

Rekarth says, "You should be more careful."

Lini calls back, "Sorry dear!" as the wagon rattles off in the distance.

 

(Setzier runs his hand over the sash of the trousers, and wanders off.)

You say, "That is a beautiful gown."

Setzier just went west.

Nola beams happily at you!

Nola says, "Thank you! It's even more beautiful close up..."

Nola shows you her green silk gown. A length of embroidered ivy climbs up the gown in a subtle latticework pattern, stopping to twine around the waist and neckline in a way that emphasizes the wearer's form.

You smile at Nola.

You ask, "So what other sorts of things did she have in there?"

Nola says, "Oh, she had a violet cloak with a teal sash and some slippers with tiny gold stars and a beautiful blue silk satchel and..."

(Nola babbles on about everything in the wagon.)

Pelendur says, "All sorts.. she had closets for formal wear, everyday wear, accessories, used clothing, and bodices."

You ask, "No bodice for you eh?"

You grin.

Pelendur says, "No, although Setzier was looking at them quite a lot."

Pelendur smirks.

Nola nods to Pelendur.

Nola says, "He pretended he wasn't, but..."

Nola clasps her hand over her mouth.

Nola giggles.

You grin.

 

A ribbon flutters in the breeze.

[Wehnimer's, Exterior]
You can hear the noisy bustle around the land gates to the west. Over the din, you can just barely hear the sound of the surf from the northeast.
You also see a rumpled ochre ribbon and a sun-bleached pine gate.
Also here: Setzier, Nola, Lord Pelendur, Lord Rekarth, Lord Arianiss, Lord Roelon
Obvious paths: west, northeast.

Setzier looks at a rumpled ochre ribbon and shrieks at the top of his lungs.

Pelendur pokes his finger at a rumpled ochre ribbon.

Setzier exclaims, "Ochre!"

You glance at a rumpled ochre ribbon.

Setzier shudders.

Pelendur says, "I think she has more bolts of ochre then she knows what to do with."

Nola says, "The lady who bought the ocher dress would like it."

You feel the blood drain from your face.

You ask, "Someone bought ochre?"

Nola nods to you.

Setzier says, "Ylena is wearing ochre. You know something is happening when Ylena buys ochre."

Setzier shudders.

Nola says, "A woman with a beautiful voice, like a singer, with red hair."

Nola asks, "Is that her name?"

Nola cocks her head at Setzier.

You exclaim, "Ylena bought it?!"

Setzier nods to Nola.

Setzier nods to you.

Setzier exclaims, "She's wearing ochre!"

Pelendur chuckles.

Setzier shudders.

You shake your head.

Nola says, "It had amber beading on it, and I think it was satin."

Pelendur says, "It's the spring fashion. I think she says."

Pelendur rubs his chin thoughtfully.

You exclaim, "I heard her say she was going to make it trendy...but I thought she was joking!"

Nola says, "She's as beautiful as autumn in it."


11/28/99

Having found a trap on the coffer, Anaren calls for silence as he begins to attempt to disarm it. Everyone holds their breath...

Anaren suddenly grimaces.

Anaren gasps in surprise as a stream of fire shoots forth from the coffer that he has been working on! Anaren is savagely immolated by the flames! As the flames surround his head,s skin begins to melt under the intense heat! As you stand there dazed, Anaren's eyes reach the boiling point and burst open, spraying sizzling vitreous fluid all over you! Anaren falls to his knees and releases a pitiful moan before collapsing into a smoldering heap on the ground.

* Anaren drops dead at your feet.

You flail your arms about.

[Wehnimer's, Exterior]
The muted sounds of loud bartering from within Wehnimer's Landing, and the lonely calls of a pair of mated fenvaoks high up in the air vie for your attention as you march along the outer western edge of the town.

1/7/00

[Entrance Hall]
Made of shining bronze and adorned with glistening obsidian, two doors rise high and wide above the fine tiled floors, now faded and covered with dust.

[Lough Ne'halin, Pine Bluff]
The bluff drops away in a sheer cliff, offering a spectacular view of the lake over the tops of trees in the lee of the hillside below.

5/24/00

[Thanatoph, Stone Valley]
The valley dips here providing even sharper contrast between the living green of the valley and the brown desolation of the surrounding hills and the gloomy Thanatoph. Having retreated to more hospitable clime, the fel trees that dominated the northwestern ridgeline are nowhere to be seen. A slightly foul undertone invades the fresh green smells of life around you.

9/7/97

During a lost soul and archfiend invasion...

[Wehnimer's, Land's End Rd.]
You are scrutinized by vigilant soldiers as you arrive at the wide gateway guarding the land route to Wehnimer's Landing. The frenetic pace of the city to the south is a far cry from the deceptive calm of the wilds of Elanith outside. Two daunting towers survey the countryside and protect the town, flanking the road to the east and west. You also see a placid monk, a sturdy silver box, a corroded brass trunk, a quartz crystal and a wooden barrel.
Also here: Lord Arianiss, the body of Lord Bolos who is lying down, the body of Lady Amoret who is lying down, the body of Lord Kniegha who is lying down, the body of Lord Tartanious who is lying down, Lady Lylia, the body of Lady Daelynn who is lying down, Lord Darcayne, Lady Zusanne, Adrya, Xezaviar who is seated, Lord Palewoe, Lady Rayvynne who is seated, Lord Pelendur who is seated, Lady Saigeian, Shaylha who is seated, Valntine who is seated, Lord Deathsaver

3/24/00

Preparing to pray at an Amazon meeting...

[Crown of Boulders]
The large rocks jumbled about are mottled with delicate mosses. Trillium grows here and there, offering tri-leafed stems crowned with snow-white blossoms.

>cast thia
You gesture into the air.
A silvery fog envelopes you. You feel a sudden lurching motion, and as the fog dissipates you see...

4/8/99

When Danay was still in her warrior wannabe stage and evidently not above begging...

[Warrior Guild, Entryway]
You are standing face-to-face with the southern wall of the Warrior Guild. More fortress than building, its stone walls are interspersed with towering spires, the highest and most impressive being the two on the wall facing you. Each of the spires is inset with thick-glazed, narrow windows that purchase them a view at every angle. The entrance to the Guild itself is guarded by a massive portcullis of stout iron bars faced overall with mein reinforcing. You also see a burly guard.

6/25/99

After presiding at Shilein (a Sister Amazon) and Farliegh's wedding...

[A Large Cavern]
Icy walls reflect the faint light of flourescent stone protrusions, creating a magical winter landscape. The floor is solid ice, and as you examine it closer you notice that there is running water under it, giving the illusion of walking on water. Two sparkling ice sculptures guard the entrance to the altar. You also see a refreshment cart with some stuff on it and a small table with some stuff on it.

The walls of the crevice close in upon the trail here. A narrow opening, which you can just edge your way through, leads downward into the crevice itself. The trail leads upward to the west to a plateau. You also see some double leather, a reinforced shield and a rapier.
Also here: a stunned Morgannia who is lying down
Obvious paths: west.

You recover enough strength to move again.

Morgannia says, "thank ye, once again for the rescue"

You smile at Morgannia.

Morgannia smiles.

You say, "Of course."

Morgannia says, "someday you will no longer have to do that"

Morgannia says, "maybe"

You say, "Likely story."

Morgannia says, "I have my doubts"

Deavon takes a deep breath and blows a huge gust at her dandelion! The little white spores float off on a breeze, dancing in the currents of air. Carelessly, she tosses the bare stem aside.

Deavon says, "Good gods... glad I didn't wish for another man in me life.."

You cackle!

Deavon shudders.

Skywhisper chuckles.

Shandethe snickers.
