[QUOTE="Ancalagon, post: 7122488, member: 23"] Lal helps set up the camp - he has traveled with many a caravan, and knows the basics; although he pays attention to how the nomads do it - he knew that the desert people could be particular about certain details. OOC: Did Lal discover why the camel he's riding is called Sweet? As the nomads start cooking the chicken, Lal tells another story. "Back in my homeland, the far away Purple Lands, there are many wonders... but we do not have camels, which is a great tragedy. So all sort of beast of burden are used instead. And one of those is the giant crayfish, found only in the north. Now the giant crayfish is sort of like a giant scorpion without a stinger, and its sole use is for war, for they are fierce combatants, with great pincers and armor, but they are very stupid. One day a Noble Slugman - because we have slugmen in the Purple lands - decided that he would acquire an army of these crayfish and use it to defeat his enemies in the South. This slugman had tons of silver at his disposal - for slugmen are very rich - and with his fortune he made it so. So he stood astride the largest crayfish, and behind him was his entire army, with a fearsome line of giant crayfishes, and his enemies quivered in terror. They had soldiers too, but they were all on foot, and their weapons would not pierce the crayfish's armor. As the slugman opened his mouth to demand that his foes surrender, he sneezed. It sounded like the blast of a great horn - for slugmen have very large lungs - and his crayfish took fright at the unnatural noise and threw him off. And the panic spread among the giant crayfishes and they turned around and trampled the slugman's army, and fled back north. This is why you should make sure that your war mount is at least half as smart as you. And as I am a very wise man, I usually have to fight on foot."
