[QUOTE="Sanglorian, post: 6210084, member: 83822"] BOTH ADDED TO THE WIKI [B] Tenderfoot and the Saklas (22.00) [/B] The quickling Tenderfoot had heard tales of the Stairs of the Sun. She prepared herself for The Lion’s Day by training for ten months with monks of The Stern Way. All quicklings move fast, but Tenderfoot outran lightning. When dawn dusted the edge of the valley, Tenderfoot raced up the steps and ladders that crystallised in the air. Just as darkness fell, a great fireball appeared in the sky. It raced down the fading steps and appeared before those awaiting Tenderfoot’s return. It was a mass of lions, strangely stretched and constructed from cords of twisting fire - what the people of this land now know as saklas. Tenderfoot collapsed before them. An unseasonable chill mist rose and the saklas retreated. According to a priest of Alberon who ministered to Tenderfoot, she whispered in her ear that she had reached the Sun and it was the palace of the entity that calls itself The King in Splendour. It was a nightmarish place where those who worshipped the King in life now serve him in death. Since her death shortly followed, it is impossible to corroborate the story. [I]Hooks [/I] Is this religious propaganda, or is there any truth to it? How did the saklas get to The Burning Lands? Did Tenderfoot really make it to the Sun and back in one day? [B]My Mule, My Brother (08.15) [/B]A mule of indeterminate age lives on a grassy plateau here, sheltered from the elements by a cliff face that rises above the plateau. He has dragged a number of useful tools here over the years, including a large piece of cured leather that he uses as a lean-to and a plough that he can - with some difficulty - operate alone. This mule is a sworn blood brother of The Jester Prince. They exchanged blood under the Arch of Sod (06.14) and swore to come to the other’s aid in times of need. This affection is born of the one time that the prince left The Duke of Thring’s service. The mule bore him away from Castle Tarengael (16.16) in the dead of night. Eventually, their wandering brought them to Cragsend (04.06) where the prince rescued a flock of firebirds from Edrin Tain’s cult. One of the escaped firebirds is now Lady Naideen’s pet (17.11). In the cult’s counter-attack, the mule’s cunning saved the prince’s life. Neither has disclosed what happened, but the mule finds it amusing and the prince is mortified. [I]Hooks [/I] Why did the prince leave the Duke? What made him return? If the firebird escaped, how did it come to be sold to Lady Naideen’s father? How did the mule save the prince’s life? Have the mule and the prince called upon one another since becoming blood brothers? Are there other animal-human blood brothers? Why is the mule living here? What does the dragon cult have planned for revenge? [/QUOTE]
