Zoe:

The nightmare bares its sharp teeth and snorts warningly at Flaust, sending a choking plume of brimstone and smoke her way, though the crone sitting astride it remains unruffled. The old woman titters at Blade and Vlad's words. "Well then, little pretty ones, since you seem to be eager to get...

Still trying not to laugh, Sssakkariah clambers out of the boat and drops her equipment on the beach where it won't be affected by the tide. Her natural paranoia kicking in, she scans the area quickly looking for possible enemies or hazards before turning to help Yoseph beach the ship (provided...

Rupert brightens immeasurably. "I no haves to go to Abyss? I gets to go to Sigil? *yip* Oh thankyouthankyouthankyou!! (smack!)" He gets down and starts kissing Burrow's feet again, with all his usual slobbery enthusiasm. With that settled, you bid a not-so-fond farewell to Daubei's Obscure Woe...

In a small voice, Rupert answers, "No, no.... I no wants to go to Abyss... *yip* but if yous say go, I will go.... mabbe with big group, I nots get noticed and eaten by a grue. *yip*" He, however, doesn't seem convinced of this, and nervously throws a glance over in the direction of Flaust.

Sssakkariah grabs her gear and half-crouches, bracing herself for their landing, just in case. I hope Yoseph knows what he's doing....

Suddenly aware that a number of other people on the boat had been watching her conversation with Sasskasa with interest, Sssakkariah flushes self-consciously and gives those who make eye contact with her a tentative smile. Taking a deep breath, she turns towards the prow of the ship to get a...

Shamiq is beginning to look slightly exasperated. "I never asked for any of your souls, neither yours nor his. I asked for your word-- sworn on your souls-- to free the Maeldur." It snorts, "I assure you, if I was trawling for souls, I certainly wouldn't have let the lot of you get away with all...

Shamiq scratches idly at a festering postule along its side. "He swore on his soul," the fiend iterates implacably, unmoved. "It has nothing to do with yours." Meanwhile, it is slowly sinking into Rupert that he isn't about to be eaten (or worse), at least not yet. Sniffling, the kobold looks...

Sssakkariah blinks once, twice in rapid succession then takes Sasskasa's hand in a firm, heartfelt grip. "I... I am deeply honored by your wordssss, Sasskasssa," she says solemnly. "I am glad to have to glad to have thisss chance to make your acquaintance and to have you with usss on thisss...

Yay! :D

"Eeep!! Waaaaaah!!" The terrified kobold flails about in a blind panic as Burrow bodily drags him through the portal once more, away from the smirking Flaust. "Noooooooo!! No wanna be fed to yucky old fiend!! Or cut up and eaten by scary tiefer lady!! Waaaaaah!! I will go to Abyss, yes, yes!! I...

The trip back out of Shamiq's lair is as gut-wrenching as the trip in, but at least the heat and humidity are back to a much more tolerable level. In the mansion's vestibule, as you are discussing your next course of action, Rupert tugs on Burrow's sleeve again. "Burrow and his big friends...

Well, I've been browsing around this site for a couple hours now and not a single database error has popped up (crosses fingers) so perhaps this bug is now squashed. :D

Sssakkariah catches the lizardman's disconcerted shake of the head, but chalks it up as part of his surprise at having a conversation. Certainly, she had gotten quite a bit further than she expected and she was pleased, even if Sasskasa's latest question had wandered onto a topic that was a...

Okay, so this is one day late, but Happy 21st Birthday, Macintosh! Some enterprising German Mac fans have digitized a video tape (supposedly the only surviving copy) of the launch of the original Macintosh in January 1984 in celebration of this event. :p

Oh dear, does this mean a whole bunch of links (in sigs and whatnot) to old posts are now kaput (since they all pretty much followed that format)? :uhoh: Looks like I'm going to be updating a bunch of bookmarks... As a side note, you have my appreciation, MM, for working so hard on the site!

Thanks for the heads up, Dave. Drats. :( Well, the program was nice while it lasted...

"Fassscinating," Sssakkarish remarks, her eyes bright with curiosity and delight. "Ssso your tattoosss proclaim your might to the world... not ssso disssimilar to usss, at leassst in intent." She holds up an arm and shoves the sleeve of her robe and chain shirt to bare flesh traced with...

I was on earlier in the evening today when the server was peaking 2000+ users and the site was still blazing (I'm on broadband) so I'm definitely impressed! W00t! The new server rocks! :D
