Ruth says, "Right, we will begin the negociations."
Aodfionn points at Ruth.
Aodfionn says, "Ahah!
Orzaansyn says, "Ah, it seems he understood you."
Ruth says, "No, no. He does not understand. I know, it leads you to this conclusion because he came without an interpreter, but he does not understand anything of what I say. You may try, daughter."
Orzaansyn raises an eyebrow questionningly.
Ruth says, "Just say a random sentence."
Orzaansyn ponders.
Orzaansyn says, "I appreciate the taste of fruits with sirup."
Aodfionn points at Orzaansyn.
Aodfionn says, "Ahah!"
Ruth says, "You see, daughter. He does not understand."
Aodfionn ponders the situation.
Aodfionn says, "Ruth! I declare war."
Orzaansyn says, "He does not understand what we say, but does he understand what he says, Mother?"
Ruth gives an uncertain look.
Ruth says, "In that precise case, I do not really know..."
Aodfionn says, "RUTH! I appreciate the taste of fruits with sirup."
Ruth nods carefully.
Ruth says, "Okay, it was nothing to worry about."
Orzaansyn says, "We should nonetheless talk about that peace treaty."
Aodfionn yells, "WAR! WAR! WAR!"
Orzaansyn says, "He looks like he knows what he's saying, now."
Ruth says, "No, I assure you. It is not because he yells. Here it is "war" but it could have been "salsify", it would have been all the same."
Aodfionn yells, "SALSIFY! SALSIFY! SALSIFY!"
Ruth says, "There you are."
Orzaansyn says, "How will we negociate then?"
Ruth shrugs helplessly.
Ruth says, "We won't. We'll just stay here until he's bored..."
Aodfionn shouts, "RUTH! SPOON! SALSIFY! I appreciate the taste of fruits with sirup."
Ruth sighs deeply.

Ruth says, "Will we decide to put guards on that road? Three times we are raided by Eleusians ..."
Orzaansyn says, "The problem is that when you put guys in a guardhouse, the first week they play cards, they are serious ... But after a week, with loneliness, they are drunk all the time. They were found sprawled on the table."
Ruth says, "But I do not care! We change guards every two weeks! That's guarding, eh, I'm sorry. Has anyone ever told it was a sinecure?"
Orzaansyn hesitates a second then says, "This is not wrong ..."
Ruth says, "Then the enemies arrive at the guard post, they are surprised and do not even have time to raise the alarm!"
Orzaansyn says, "The first week it is okay."
Ruth says, "The first week! You will tell our enemies they should not attack on second week because our guards can not stand solitude! No kidding, this is quite a paradox."
Orzaansyn says, "Yeah ... This is not wrong ..."

@Xer, @Arador and Orzaansyn are in the forest during a battle. Orzaansyn takes a map.
Xer says, "We know nothing, the scouts did not return..."
Arador says, "Well, we have to find another rally point."
Arador looks at the card.
Xer says, "I thought maps were false?"
Orzaansyn says, "I did not say they were false, I was told they were not new. It's not the same."
Arador says, "But how old are they?"
Orzaansyn says, "I do know. Anyway I do not understand anything with maps."
Xer upsettedly says, "Ah huh! Make a effort!"
Arador says, "Okay. They are not new. But do you think they are outdated?"
Orzaansyn says, "This is not wrong ..."
Xer says, "What is not wrong?
Orzaansyn says, "About what?
Arador says, "I asked if you think the maps are outdated!"
Orzaansyn says, "Responsibilities ... Always in duties."
Herenicus says, "Many Viceroy duties or ...?"
Orzaansyn says, "It's not so much that but ... Ruth often need me for strategic advices. And Hasar too, for all military actions on the Mhaldorian territory. This is a lot of work."
Herenicus, in awe, says, "Ah ... It is even nicer from you to take some time to talk with me. No, I ... I do not know what happens to me these days ... I look in the mirror and I ... I feel .. tasteless."
Orzaansyn says, "Yeah. This is not wrong."
Herenicus looks askance, surprised, then upset.
Herenicus dryly says, "Well, it actually made me feel better to talk with you. Thank you."
Orzaansyn smiles happily.

Orzaansyn is eating at Ruth's table.
Orzaansyn says, "The ribs are not bad, but not worth the chops. Chops are more tasty."
Ruth says, "Yeah. This is not wrong."
Orzaansyn, surprised, says, "Seriously, you do not know what "tasty" means?"
Ruth says, "Of course I know."
Orzaansyn says, "It's "chops" you don't understand ?"
@Kresslack and Orzaansyn are again at Stygian Crossroad, with @Xer.
Xer says, "Between Order issues, Houses issues, City issues, raiders who come devastate the City twice a month ... I was already angry, but there ... I think I reached ... the epitom."
Kresslack looks at Orzaansyn and gives her a little nod.
Orzaansyn says, "Yeah, this is not false."
Kresslack smiles and gives Orzaansyn a thumb up.

Orzaansyn says, "It's still wonderful, the secret weapon."
Kresslack says, "It's unstoppable."
Orzaansyn says, "I use it fifteen times a day, at least."
Kresslack says, "Careful! If it is noticed, we'll be screwed! No kidding! Because if people are getting the trick, then we will really be known for being idiotic dumbs!"
Orzaansyn says, "And if I do not understand the word?"
Kresslack ponders the situation.
Kresslack says, "In order to avoid exhausting the thing, at times, you admit you not understand the word."
Orzaansyn says, "Really? Won't I be considered like an idiot?"
Kresslack says, "Well, occasionally, just accept to be considered as an idiot."
Orzaansyn says, "Yeah, it's better. It's not as if I was considered as totally dumb all the time."
Ruth says, "You see, daughter, it is no fun to tax. If I could, I would cancel all taxes..."
Orzaansyn says, "Anyway, you should not listen to the people, they are never happy."
Ruth says, "Taxes are supposed to be used for the problems of the people. And when you hear them speaking, their only problem are taxes. There's a real dichotomy there."
Orzaansyn says, "This is not false."
Ruth says, "Then finally it goes nonetheless. People will grumble but will pay more or less, and their money is more or less used thoroughly."
Orzaansyn says, "This is not false."
Ruth considers Orzaansyn suspiciously.
Ruth says, "Elaborate?"
Orzaansyn says, "What do you mean?"
Ruth says, "What is not false?"
Orzaansyn says, "Well... What you said... This is not false."
Ruth raises her eyebrow and looks Orzaansyn, who does not notice anything.
Ruth says, "... This not false ... ?"
Orzaansyn says, "Well yeah."
Ruth frowns while continuing to look at Orzaansyn. She takes a breath.
Ruth says, "And you also agree to say that ... The very definition of taxes, and critics they raise are aaaaaaaaa ... dichotomy?"
Little silence, Ruth looks wickedly at Orzaansyn and awaits a response. Orzaansyn is uncomfortable and looks down.
Orzaansyn says, "This is ... No ... I do not understand this word."
Ruth gives a dubious look, a little lost.

Orzaansyn says, "It's good to have refined the secret weapon, it varies a little."
Kresslack says, "You have needed it these days?"
Orzaansyn says, "It was crazy, I felt as if I was talking to books. So then, boom, "this is not wrong", boom, a shot of "I do not understand this word" ... They looked like idiots."
Kresslack says, "Well! Wonderful."
Orzaansyn says, "In life, I had two enemies: vocabulary and spinachs. Now I have the secret weapon and I am Logosian."
Harmonia says, "Well, maybe you'll say I'm an old crazy witch, but I have the feeling she talks to me."
Aegoth says, "Ah? Not to me."
Harmonia says, "It's as if she were encouraging me. To rethink some things. You see? Evil... To never stagnate, to always get better..."
Aegoth says, "She tells it to you?"
Harmonia says, "No, it's me who feels it. It's blurred."
Aegoth says, "She doesn't talk to me. Probably she knows I'll anyway tell her to shup up if she does."

Harmonia says, "... Orzaansyn talks to me. Believe it or not, it's like this. If she can sustain my Faith, I can bring it to the Realms."
@Ysela says, "And if our hearts are not pure enough? If we're not worthy to serve the Lord?"
Harmonia says, "I know we are."
Ysela says, "How do you know?"
Harmonia says, "... Orzaansyn told me."

Harmonia is at the Gates of Mhaldor, teaching some Slaves about Evil.
Harmonia says, "And this is why Evil is not at all gratuitous violence, and violence should always have the purpose to teach and improve. You understand?"
Orzaansyn arrives from the south.
Harmonia blinks.
Orzaansyn says, "Hey!"
Harmonia says, "... Damn! Not only I hear her, but now I can see her!"
Orzaansyn says, "I'm back!"
Harmonia blinks again.
Harmonia says, "But... You're not dead, you shithead?"
Orzaansyn says, "No, but I was very sick, so I ordered to write a letter to tell I'm dead. In anticipation. And finally, I vomited, and vomited, and now I'm better."
Harmonia turns to the slaves
Harmonia says, "Forget what I said about gratuitous violence."
