[QUOTE="Tilmamir, post: 2320061, member: 31628"] [b]Irwin replies to Airith[/b] Irwin: "I see you are from the Malta area then. You are right to be cautious. All the families in their silly Game are well known. The competitive nature of the Game, not to mention the outstanding effort and wealth spent to out-play each other shines like a beacon to all who are out to make a quick sovereign or fame." As Relsyn and Inwe look blankly between Airith and Irwin, he continues... "The Game, as it is called in the Malta upper eschelons, has to do with the status and pecking order of the elite. The parties they throw and gifts given among themselves, not to the needy or poor mind you, the greatness of their houses, the beauty of their gardens... all this plays into some ranking of who are the top socialites, and ultimately the power of the family." Irwin addresses everyone again... "The Game is vanity. The wealth squandered is unbelievable. The danger to 'lesser people' is minimal unless you cross them. The Anchient and Venerable Church is above that kind of pettiness, and thus we occasionally are spurned or attacked. Your status, even though working for the museum, will be seen as 'working class' and thus invisible to them." "Do not worry about that, but do be cautious not to get noticed too much. As they do not talk to each other much, you likely have time to work without being noticed. I also recommend starting at the back door of the palaces first, if you get my meaning." [/QUOTE]
