Letter to Londinium Dear Auntie Petronilla, I wanted to write to you for two reasons – first, to let you know that everything is still going well in Rome after our safe arrival; and second, to let you know what really happened at my mother’s party, before the rumors reach Britannia. When...

Sure, Fionuala will take it. Sounds like fun :) Thanks!

Woohoo! Happy anniversary to the Storyhour and big happy-birthday wishes to Fajitas! May they both have many happy years to come :)

Another letter out of order Below, I have copied over a letter dictated to me by Wilhelm von Lenzburg, one of the companions of our covenant, just before our meeting with Karl. Wilhelm can neither read nor write himself, and therefore was a bit agitated at the idea that I should retain a copy...

Fionuala waited quietly until the discussion of comings and goings and certamen seemed to have come to an end, listening with one pointed ear angled intently towards the conversation, and that quiet secret smile on her face. Finally, she spoke. "First, let me say that I do not wish to...

Woohoo! Yeah, I second all of that :) Welcome aboard, Daddy Fajitas! Hi to Mommy Fajitas! Merlin for President! All of 'em!

Out of curiosity...why do they all take the same name? And why is that name Cyrus? And although I've probably said it before, I'll say it again: I really like the religious system you've thought up. I love the idea of deities that are so multifaceted, and whose followers can interpret them in...

Sorry - Ladybird is too stressed for Fionuala to consider being Primus this term :) Maybe next time around, though.

Fionuala doesn't have any 9s, although she's got a couple 8s. She's got at least 5 in Intellego, Muto, Corpus, Imaginem, Mentem, and Terram. Not that it looks like we need any help in Intellego or Muto, of course... :)

Fionuala rose next (at least, I assume she rose, for the difference between her standing and her sitting height was hardly perceptible). She favored each of her sodales with a smile as she referred to their statements – I felt that she was sincere both in her appreciation of their words and in...

Cornelia's Long Night There was no way I could go back to sleep after that. Oh, I didn’t think they would try it again – not after what happened the first time. I was just too angry to do anything more than pace back and forth. Poor Cato – there are times when I’m grateful that he and I share...

Just as exotic, just as pale, but perhaps half as large, is the woman who rises next. She is tiny and fragile, looking as if a stiff wind – or even a not-so-stiff wind – could blow her over. But she also has a strange beauty about her: hair so bright a gold that it seems to glow in the dim...

Happy birthday, thatdarncat! Here - have some smores for the campfire! :) More CP goodness is coming soon... --Ladybird/Ginara

And I'll join CP in introducing myself as a player (and in congratulating Ori for this very cool story hour!) I play Cornelia Crispa. Unbeknownst to everyone except Meloch, Shast, Cato (and probably her mother), 16-year-old Cornelia is a sorcerer. But her mother lives all the way in Rome, and...

I've finally been able to sit down and read through this thread, and all I can say is...wow! Spyscribe, your descriptions are wonderfully fun to read! It sounds like this campaign has a great mix of characters, and you've really captured all of their personalities. (And I think the...

Re: I want more Hey, I'd be willing to play full-time! I'm not sure how I'd explain it to my professors, though.... Thanks for the support - this campaign is a lot of fun to play, and it's really cool to see that people are finding it fun to read, too! --Ladybird, still pondering whether...

Some elaboration and clarification from Ginara's player, on that conversation between Ginara and Calia: First, the end of the scene :) The last few lines went something like this: Calia: Something must have gone wrong at the end of the gnome's act. Ginara: Really? Why? What happened? Calia...
