[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 652297, member: 6562"] Wow, I thought I was dead! Good match, Wicht! I see some surface similarities -- both of us have towns threatened by the Xill, both of us have the Llama guarding the town, and both of us have the victim of the Iron Bands being implanted by the Xill -- hey, we even have the guy in the Iron Bands being someone important's son! Anyway -- good match :) Now, to defend myself ;) : Okay, not [i]Commune[/i] but [i]Divination[/i]. As to why there's no better answer forthcoming, and why the forces of Elemental Evil aren't being very helpful, it's because Tchakrix is part Fire Elemental, too, and has used what little influence he has to hide his tracks. Those Who Command the Flames are waiting to see who wins -- the old species or the new -- before helping one side or the other. Secondly, I assumed that Tchakrix has about 30 Xill working for him, and that for a [i]Commune[/i] to work it would have to be phrased pretty precisely -- "Did Tchakrix kidnap Archi?" is a clear No. (Though, to be honest, I don't have a ton of experience with high level Divinations...) Finally, yes, Perlfive is a "computer" joke -- I tried to make the Llama as palpably comic relief as I could, then imagined the Xill scratching their heads, wondering how the hell THAT thing had them beat. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. -- Nifft [/QUOTE]
