Subject Night time discussions

These are various conversations that occurred while traveling or when camping and spending a watch with Shatra's party.

While traveling with Rochelle

?Master Salix, I do miss it, and I do not know when I will see it again. I miss the hustle and bustle of Cnom, with the river flowing by. I have seen the sun rise over the Ard Desert in the morning and the sand burn like fire. I have rafted down the Great North River with my family and camped in the foothills of the mountains. But tell me what you know of Schon. I hear it has beaches and you that you can see the ocean. I have never seen the ocean. What is it like?

First watch, Harp and Amaril

For the first hour of the watch the two say nothing to each other. Amaril moves with a quite grace that Harp admires. It is obvious that Amaril is uncomfortable around Harp, but Harp is not sure if it is just natural reluctance or Harp's background. After a while though the two do engage in a little conversation. Harp picks up that the dwarf, Bear, is also a ranger from the dwarven homeland on the world that Shatra's party comes from. It seems that this world and theirs are very similar. Almost all of the same races exists and it also seems most of the same plants, although often with different names. One of the biggest differences is the way elves are named.

Second Watch, Alarion and Surin.

Surin starts talking with the ? elf Alarion right away. ?So what is this with the magic items and such. How do ye be goin about getin such items?? ?We do research in the cities? Alarion responds, ?trying to find references to lost treasures and such. Lydecca, our employer, says that to get all of us back will require many items. So far we only have a couple of items and we are keeping those under guard at her house so that we do not loose them. We occasionally keep and use a magic item if it will assist the group, such as this sword I carry.? With that he holds out a fine longsword. Surin looks at it and gives a shrug. ?Ill take ye word for it. Weapons like that are more along the lines of what Ran and Harp use, not me.

Ran and Bear, Third watch

Ran tries to start up a conversation with Bear several times. Eventually the dwarf looks at him, his face still shadowed by the cowl of his cloak, ?Listen laddie, if I wanted to be flappin me gums with you I would. So if you ain't to stupid to get the hint, I donna wanna talk. I find that half breed elven voices grate on my ears, so shut your gob and do what you are supposed to be doing, with is watching and not runnin your lips.? Ran looks abashed at the insult and walks off. An hour or so later Ran looks over an catches a glimpse of Bears face. He almost looses his dinner. The dwarf's face is a hideous collection of scars. His nose is almost gone and the lips and teeth do not match up in proper alignment. It is surprising that the dwarf can talk at all. All of a sudden Bear glances up and sees Ran watching. He quickly turns and covers his face with his cloak.

Cai and Shatra, Fourth watch.

Cai and Shatra just talk about small things, such as the names of animals and plants. They also talk a bit about local geography, with Shatra asking most of the questions and Cai supplying the answers. Cai also fills them in on what the party has been up to the past month or so.

OODM: I will write more about the next morning tomorrow. Any thing else any one wants to do, or ask, please let me know.

Subject Computer

I am back online, after a period of really messed up email.

Sorry I wasn't around for most of this new stuff.
