True. Only a rat-bastard would do something like tha- Oh. Nevermind.

One of these days they'll figure out the answer, and Kormick will end up with only 9 fingers.

Nice... get them good and reliant on the teleport circles, then use them to kidnap someone. Oh, and doesn't the di Raprezzi family work with the teleport circles?

Jenber - Oh, I understand Mena's point of view too! I've done things just to see if I could, and set myself to challenges to improve myself. Oh, and I've got a 6 year old who seems to be a born Questor. It seems like every new object is a challenge saying "how high can you climb on this?"...

I love this. I can see where Arden is coming from. "Challenges just for the sake of being challenged? The rest of us get challenged by life if we like it or not. Only folks who need to seek out 'challenges' are folks who have it so easy they don't know what being challenged is all about."

I love that Arden's idea of indulging is ordering people around.

What, the suspicious and cautious little girl Satsuki is now leading a suspicious and cautious group of Alirrian worshippers? Who would have guessed? I love the connection to the old campaign - that's craftsmanship.

Ah.... I had remembered the two incidents, but yes, I was assuming there had been some other interaction to cause Arden to become so arduously interested in murdering the poor dwarf. I look forward with interest to learning the subtext!

Hilarious! However, I'm confused - why does the murder sla... excuse me, Arden, hate Vatik?

Oh, it makes total sense. And you probably saved his life! After all, once he was exposed (no pun intended) as a liar, those pants were going to burst into flames, right?

No no no. Nothing so crass! He was obviously using something inside his loincloth to make Mena more lubricated, and which made her want to rip off his clothing. I'm betting it's a magic wand.

Zacris had made a rock that slowly turned anything holding or touching it into stone. It was, he thought, a perfect way to hold someone prisoner for a long time. Keep them tied to the stone for a few hours, and (once the screaming stops) they'll be immobile for years until you give the command...

Waitaminute.... am I remembering the Sheh from Welcome to the Helmae? Were they the undead behind the kingdom of skeletons thing? (I loved the kingdom of skeletons - skeletons farming and skeletal chickens!)

I've forgotten - where do angels stand in this pantheon? Do the various religions consider them messengers and servants of the gods? If Kormick knew what he had done, how upset would he be? (OK, how upset _should_ he be?) Does sumonning/calling the angel have implications for what Kettenek...

Darn, I figured it out after you did. I was hoping for first on the puzzle. I'm a fan-boy for the cosmology that Fajitas has created. The use of the elemental/seasonal imagery in the prophecy is awesome.
