Robinnnnn the hooded man
So, after watching Intermission, I had to add my Clannad album (a best-of collection) to my .mp3 player and have been listening to them again. The sound takes me back to high school, and also to the beach, and sometimes the music just sinks down into my brain and I regret, in that horrible melancholy way where the world could all be right and I'd still regret that I couldn't do everything. But it's also fun to listen to them, and while I probably don't have the Celtic soul noted in Intermission necessary to make me worthy of listening to them, I definitely have to conclude that I like Clannad pretty well.
Getting excited for vacation time as it nears!
But here is D&D summary, since I did not have time before now.
-We met back up in Lunel, where Esra identified the items we'd found before and we doled them out as fit. Llewain came away with a serrated dagger, Sabine with a frosty sword, Esra with a scroll and a wand and a ring of jumping. Denar had the FLAILSNAIL shell made into a rainbow mace that leaves shiny trails. And, he can use it twenty times to sap people's will to resist him, which is pretty impressive even without the glowy rainbow trails. Sabine also gave Esra the scroll of Fireball she'd asked Maligos to draft for her, and he identified that it truly was a fireball spell (Danny noted that it also had definitely been scribed by Maligos).
-We returned to Nys, pursuing Kelisandra and Korad. But we found them in the Greased Goose inn, where questioning, prying, and severe irritation with their deception yielded the information that, in fact, they had been posing as us under Maligos's orders.
-Esra may need to compare the writing on the fireball scroll with the writing on 'Bishop Dinta's secret notes; also, the scene I did the excerpt from earlier happened, as we checked our ship to be sure nothing much had been stolen.
-I'm also remembering some mysterious hooded figure had lunch with Esra waaaaay back at the beginning of the game, where by 'lunch' I mean 'a cup of boiled water, which he or she did not finish.'
-Hmmmmm. But yes: ritual murders have been happening in Nys, as have nightmares, so we figured we'd probably need to resolve that. This may all be connected to Dinta, Maligos, and the fact that anyone was ever interested in the Crown of the Speaker to begin with.
And Dustin kept claiming that we don't want our island unless it's threatened. To which I say no, we're just savoring it, man. Jeeeez. We're taking our time. We're being prepared, that's all. It's ours and we'll go when we're good and ready. ...probably.
We also made terrible jokes, including poop jokes, jokes about "pass womb", the spell that allowed a crazy knife-wielding NPC to escape his mother's belly, and so on. So on track and mature! That's us. :D
