Cool beans. I was hoping you'd check in to say you had them. I'd hate to beat you on a technicality rather than my own brilliance.

I too got the pics early this morning (my time). Thanks folks for making sure I saw them.
And thanks, Berandor for your review. I did feel pretty raked over the coals with the first part, but do appreciate your candor.
Just because I can't stand not having my first round story make more sense than it did:
The ink the Writers use is created from the remains of individuals. When the ink is used it tells that person's last wishes, dyings fears, regrets, hopes.
The Naiadin speak a distinct dialect and since only a Naiadin could translate, the Monks try hard to have a Naiaidin amongst their Writers. But the Naiadin are wise to the ways of the Monks and have learned how to obscure their last wishes.
They also figured out how to break the system. By cutting off a finger and including it in faked remains, the Naiadin can send a simple message, a message of identity - an initial representing their names. The sketchy 'a' in the 'note' pic is Akando. And he says 'I am incomplete,' and also, I had intended to imply, 'I am ink.' He is broken out of the fugue by the link to his physical self.
All of the E's are a message from the Serpent (who's spine/bones are the rock formation). There are E's all over the image of the serpent on the hura if you look... One on each foot, one on it's tail, eyes - even the border looks like E's. The trail of such a creature as it walked would look like two rows of E's. Akando took this to mean that he needed to go to the Path of the Serpent.
It was there... it made sense, really it did. I just didn't get around to actually writing it.
I'll stop putting off my current story and get to writing...

Then say after the stories go up this afternoon.
Inquiring minds want to know what lurks in the insidious horros of Pkitty's brain. I didn't say they were particularly wise inquiring minds, since that Sanity check is rather high, though.
