WOW!

P_S -

You forgot the real answer...(E) All of the Above...

You see, Bunting is string with lots of little flags attached that is used to tie up the sheep's bladders filled with sweet stuffing. The earliest recorded record of the "bunt tossing" pastime (taking its name from the string) occurs in a fragment of an Anglo-Saxon book, found in Northumbria and dated c. 701 AD.

The practice was most often associated with the "bunt tossing" was for couples to send secret messages to each other under the noses of over-protective parents. Northumbrian girls would weave messages with the bunting and young men would hide small gifts in the sweet stuffing.

This type of public flirting often led to the final meaning of bunting, which public decorum prevents us from mentioning here!

Wow. You are a geneis. That is almost as good as the Everburning Torch guild.

I assume that this will be one of the next things to appear in your camaign? Rowan could "string" both women along this way.

Goatbladder.... Duh!

Where's the next bunting, PS?

Lela: If Rowan would do that, they would probably hang him with it... If he survives Quintus reaction!

Lela,

Thanks! I don't know about genius...maybe just a penchant for creative manipulation of mundane facts!

Darklance,

I can imagine that the Scipio Bros. might take a dim view of Rowan stringing their sister Maxima along and, of course, they still have to find Drusilla!

Easy there, Old One. He called you a "geneis", which (as everybody knows) comes from a native american tongue and means "White man who has too much time on his hands but won't for much longer because he'll have a baby and then he will be sleep deprived and really feel like an 'Old One'".

Those native american languages really pack a lot of meaning into two sylables, huh?

Quite Correct...

Your perception is flawless! In my haste to bask in the adoring accolades of the masses, I overlooked the real meaning of Lela's post. In truth, my limited free time will vanish in about 7.5 months...come on, WOTC contest!

Lela: storyhour yes. I think I'll manage another one yet!

Your wish is my command. After that whole shoe thing how could I say no?

Killing page 2!!!

BUMPedihooo!

 

[Old One]

Thanks for Rescuing Me!

Darklone,

Thanks for the rescue from the dreaded page 2! Hellish week and work, plus I am trying to integrate a major new element to the campaign. It is top secret...but will be revealed soon!

Wha?

I thought this was merely a cunning plan to allow readers to catch up on sections II-VI
