A triple-chocolate cookie comes lofting in to you from the up, and you catch it nimbly.

A frosted sugar cookie comes lofting in, from the up, to Havyn, who catches it nimbly.

Lord Templar Achilles, Knight of Shallam says, "Must be a Cyrenian Sniper."

Thanks for the cookie

Mathonwy

Flying above Path circling Selenia pond (road).

It is raining heavily, pregnant drops of water pouring down onto you. The gravel

path here is lined with descriptive words. The Blue 

Dragon Mariya's imposing form looms.

You see exits leading northeast, southwest, and northwest.

Mariya Eruu'Yul asks, "What would happen should you fall?"

You say, "I don't know. I don't have wings."

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "How would you land, I wonder?"

You say weakly, "Gracefully, of course. Like I do all things."

Mariya begins her long dive, laughing through jagged teeth.

You follow Mariya Eruu'Yul northwest to Orator's Grove.

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "For science!?"

You squirm uncomfortably.

Mariya flaps her wings violently, braking the fall.

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "Last chance, Corso, before we begin our experiment."

You have tmoted: As she brakes the sudden descent, Mathonwy jerks particularly 

violently in Mariya's claws. The shoulders of his coat are torn to shreds and 

deep cuts rend into his flesh as he slips from Mariya's grasp and plummets to 

the ground below.

You begin to struggle free of your entanglement.

You twist and turn as you attempt to escape from your entanglement.

Mariya suddenly releases her vice-like grip on you.

Lacking any way to fly and any support, you plummet to the earth below you!

You plummet head first to the surface with a sickening crunch.

Mariya descends from above.

You say weakly, "That could have gone better."

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "Indeed."

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "Let's try again, until we get it right."

You have tmoted: Mathonwy woozily pulls himself to his feet in protest.

You frown and say to Mariya, "There's no reason for all of that."

Mariya Eruu'Yul asks, "How are we to be certain, without science?"

You have tmoted: Mathonwy glances at the shredded remnants of a black samite 

coat with regal embroidery.

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "It's not as though we get the answers we seek by simply 

asking."

You look undecided and say, "If anything else, I will run out of clothes long 

before then."

You remove a black samite coat with regal embroidery.

Tahquil, riding Varniis, a Notic water dragon, arrives from the southeast.

Moving awkwardly, as though manipulated by invisible strings, a diminutive 

homunculus resembling Tahquil scuttles in from the southeast.

Tahquil tilts her head curiously.

Tahquil inclines her head politely.

Mariya inclines her head politely at Tahquil.

You say to Tahquil, "Ah, hello."

You ask Tahquil, "Incidentally, how would you feel were I to reincarnate into an

atavian?"

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "I suppose this concludes the experiment."

Tahquil curls her nose up and grimaces awfully.

You give Mariya the once-over, eyeing her suspiciously.

Mariya Eruu'Yul says to Tahquil, "Good to see you again."

Mariya Eruu'Yul says, "Take care."

Tahquil nods her head emphatically.

Mariya begins to flap her wings powerfully, and rises quickly up into the 

firmament.

Tahquil wrinkles her nose and gives an indignant sniff.

Tahquil, riding Varniis, a Notic water dragon, leaves to the southwest.

A diminutive homunculus resembling Tahquil gives an abrupt jerk and lurches off 

to the southeast.

Mathonwy

SOME TIME LATER...

Tahquil, riding Varniis, a Notic water dragon, arrives from the east.

Moving awkwardly, as though manipulated by invisible strings, a diminutive 

homunculus resembling Tahquil scuttles in from the east.

Entry to the Merchant's Quarter.

It is raining heavily, pregnant drops of water pouring down onto you. As the 

prime commercial area of Ashtan, description blah blah blah. The Silver Dragon Skarash's imposing form looms. Guardian Askiva 

Trismegistus Sly, Crimson Lioness is here, vines undulating about her form. The 

Silver Dragon Kald's imposing form looms. Sensei Ryukishi 'Danger' Hayabusa is 

riding on a Baarian tiger. His face is partially concealed beneath a raised 

hood. Blood Warlock, Mako Le'Dominae is riding on a charcoal black hippogriff. 

His face is partially concealed beneath a raised hood. He wields a ranger's bow 

in both hands. Sempai Kui Leises is here. 

You see exits leading northeast, east, southeast, northwest, and up.

Tahquil, riding Varniis, a Notic water dragon, arrives from the east.

Moving awkwardly, as though manipulated by invisible strings, a diminutive 

homunculus resembling Tahquil scuttles in from the east.

Tahquil gives ten corpses of an atavian warrior to you.

Tahquil gives seven corpses of a female atavian villager to you.

Tahquil gives the corpse of the atavian shaman to you.

Tahquil gives eight corpses of a male atavian villager to you.

Tahquil gives the corpse of Tinja, the atavian to you.

You peer at Tahquil unscrupulously.

Tahquil gives the corpse of Danae, the beautiful atavian to you.

Tahquil rubs her hands together greedily.

Tahquil Maris says to you, "I think, I make my point?"

You say to Tahquil, "I think I see your point."

Tahquil nods her head emphatically.

Tahquil smiles softly at you.

Tahquil gives you a peck on the cheek.

Are you kidding? I know what that means. I don't want to sleep with the fishes (or, in this case, atavians).

The dragon Yudhishthira turns his great head to regard you with one contemptuous, fiery eye.

You say with an urbane accent, "Very well, wyrm, I will remind you again of your last visit to the Bastion."

You have been slain by the dragon Yudhishthira.

...all according to plan.

Sohl

You shout, "You'd do best to remember this lesson, angry wyrm. I may be a coward, but I've got more friends than you."

The faces of the Conclave, eyes alight with some secret thought, glimmer momentarily in the sky before fading away.

So after doing wyvern clean-up, I display my geographical prowess and walk straight into one of the enormous groups of ormyrr.

To  : Everyone
Subj: A Request for Memories of the East

Even those who never lived within the walls of the Jewel of the East
could appreciate the city's finer points. Memories of being with family
and friends there are especially dear to us, especially now.

I am preparing a book for the Lucretian Athenaeum titled "Memories of
the East" and welcome you to share yours to be included in the
submission. Just prepare your entry on a letter so that it may be pasted
into the tome in your own words.

Your letter may contain prose or poetry. It can be a memory of another
adventurer, a Divine, a denizen, or even a place. However, as this is
meant to be a book of uplifting memories to comfort those who are
mourning the loss of their home, letters bearing inappropriate content
may find themselves in the belly of the nearest humgii.

Please direct questions or requests for more information to me by either
tell or message.

In song and rhyme,
Madelyne

Solias, Zaikousei of the Hold says to you, "I just wish to help. I'm not that experienced in my
class either, I've still got a long road ahead of me, and you do as well. Take defeats as a way to
learn and prevent it, in case of a real fight breaking out."

Solias, Zaikousei of the Hold says to you, "And if anyone ever teases you about something, ignore
them, nothing can stop you from improving."
