[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 3364400, member: 11"] Here we go again, kids! Some of you may have followed by "[url=http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?t=76999]Out of the Frying Pan[/url]" Aquerra story hour, and others may have wanted to, but were daunted by the length - so here we have a brand new Aquerra story hour that you can get in on right from the beginning and many ways this will likely be a lot more indicative of what Aquerra campaigns are like than the last one was . . .
