Nuygen jumps to his feet and declares "Absolutely, milady. And you are in good company - for we too are warriors like yourself and have slain a mighty lion as...
Nuygen's kind gesture and welcoming tone seems to assure her, and so she steps into the soft light of the fire. It has gotten noticably darker outside behind...
Indeed, Friday, tomorrow night at 7:00pm or so. It will be an introduction of sorts I imagine. I'll meet the gang, explain a bit about what I'm doing, and...
Good morning folks, I finished 'The Inklings' by Humphrey Carpenter last night. On the whole I give it an 'A' for "exceedingly interesting". Well worth the ...

In Greek mythology, the white-robed Moirae or Moerae (Greek Μοίραι — the "Apportioners," often called the Fates) were the personifications of destiny ...
Ah, neato. As for your verbosity - yes, I can attest to the fact that when we manage to catch you in person you are at least as verbose as Jarod - which says...
