> l mittens
Just a simple little pair of mittens, eh? Knitted, no doubt. Angora maybe.
No. Nothing so simple.
Some sort of great and terrible sorcery was used. The kind that historians
try to keep quite hush-hush lest the unwary or foolish attempt to recreate
such monstrosities. Truly, only a madman would have made such a thing. The
mind boggles, as you examine the unnatural thing before you: mittens, soft
and warm and luxurious, made of a dark black fur. Unremarkable, Except...
Except for the undeniable fact that THEY ARE ALIVE! They blink at you with
adorable, kittenish blue-gray eyes, and mewl and purr. Truly, this is mage-
craft gone terribly, terribly awry.
Corri grins wickedly.

You say (in common), 'I hope that Venom cannot do that.'.

The Lower Hall
[Exits: north up]
This hallway must have been built by giants! It is huge! Then
again, there are more than a few giants that belong to The Guild, so
it may just be so. A stairway leads up to another hallway above.
A copy of the TFC Daily News lies here.

Ghazkull says (in elven), 'what makes you say that?'.
You say (in common), 'Your peridot is gone.'.

Ghazkull says (in elven), 'it appears so'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I thought a lot about our conversation'.

You tell Venom (in common), 'YOU are evil. AND you have a red aura.'.
Venom tells you (in common), 'I wonder how your Sahib feels about that.'.
You tell Venom (in common), 'Sahib knows that I am friends with Ghazkull. He gave me permission to ask Ghazkull to join the High Order.'.
Venom tells you (in common), 'And what of his rigid stance against evil, surely all red auras must be crushed?'.
You tell Venom (in common), 'Besides, Ghazkull and I are blood bound, people say. I don't know what that means except that means I smell like pastry to him.'.

Venom tells you (in common), '*chuckles politely* Yes... a very educated statement darling.'.
You tell Venom (in common), '*frown* You are being unkind. It was an analogy. Not a good one. We couldn't find a good analogy that did not involve pastry or crying.'.
You tell Venom (in common), 'and I do not know about vampire things, just that everyone says that since I fed him, that means we are bound.'.
Venom tells you (in common), 'And here I thought you were stale and took analogies literally.'.

You tell Venom (in common), '*firmly* You take people's will away from them. That is worst-of-worst.'.
Venom tells you (in common), 'He has his will, sand-goat. He just has to obey me when I require XP.'.
You tell Venom (in common), '*gasp* I am not a goat!'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), '(multiple conversations on different channels are tough on my phone)'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'is everything okay?'.

Ghazkull raises an eyebrow.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'who said that?'.
You say (in common), 'Venom!'.
You say (in common), 'he is very strange'.

You say (in common), 'first he says I am uneducated and like a flower and then disill... a word I did not know..'.

You say (in common), 'after saying I had much to teach him and he had much to teach me'.
You say (in common), 'and that I was wrong to trust you and believe you'.

The Crest of Took Hill

The sky is cloudless and a warm southerly breeze blows.
A statue of Bandobras Took stands by a small fountain.
(Dark Purple Aura) Venom is resting here.
>at venom l venom
Your gaze pans the height and breadth of what seems at first glance
to be a regular elven adventurer when your eyes catch some rather
odd details. His clothing and equipment are immaculately clean and
rather polished, discretely bearing the runes of magical enchantment.
Something is also a bit different in his posture, he stands very
stout and proper as though a high classed mannerism were natural.
His pupils are unnaturally huge and dilated, glinting with an evil that
cannot be totally veiled by his friendly smile.
There is a sense of unseen danger exuding from this seemingly weak
person.
Venom won't win any beauty contests.
You ftell, '*sighs and shakes her head silently to clear it*'.
Venom ftells, 'What troubles you Madam?'.
You ftell, '*frankly* You.'.
You ftell, 'But I think you already knew that.'.

You ftell, '*rolls her eyes* Oh, I'm sure you do.'.
You ftell, 'You've weaseled your way into my thoughts. *half-whisper, half-hiss* I want you out.'.
Venom ftells, 'Weaseled? I've done no such thing. I would say more... snaked.'.

You say (in common), 'He bragged to me that he has a vial of her blood for his spells'.
You say (in common), 'and I warned her, but she isn't listening'.
You say (in common), 'because he hasn't hurt her directly yet'.
Ghazkull blinks.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'he was considering trying to charm me earlier'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'said he needed a ranger to make steaks whenever he wanted'.
Samiyah's brow furrows as she frowns, looking troubled.
You say (in common), 'If he does that..'.
You say (in common), 'I will follow him the rest of my days and HURT him.'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I would not let him'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'and DarkClaw would not let him either'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'she is very protective of me'.
Ghazkull snickers softly.
Samiyah says sadly, 'I think less of her that she let him charm Verminard.'
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'Verminard was willing'.
Ghazkull shrugs.
You say (in common), 'Because she yelled at me - over and over and over - about how I was letting Sahib make my decisions and take away my will..'.
You say (in common), 'and yet that is EXACTLY what Venom is doing to people'.
You sigh.
You say (in common), 'and he keeps saying he is talking to me by accident..'.
You say (in common), 'but he keeps doing it'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'well, on that note, we are a chaotic evil following, she lets us do what we like, within reason. Verminard was willing to be charmed'.

Samiyah looks a bit deflated at the reminder of your alignment.
Ghazkull nods.
Samiyah nods a little bit.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'sometimes I wish we weren't as deeply red as we are.'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'but, we all find our homes in the strangest places'.
Samiyah smiles faintly at that and nods.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'were it not for Seraph's restoration, I would have had you pegged for neutrality'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'Unaligned is the same as Neutrality (in my mind)'.
You say (in common), 'I was forbidden by oath to ever follow a god-who-walks, or give oath to one not of the Desert. But Sahib is. I would have stayed true to that oath, except that it does not apply to Sahib since he is Desert.'.
Ghazkull nods.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'that is understandable'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I read your diary with interest the other day'.
You blink.
You say (in common), 'how did you read my diary?'.
Samiyah looks through her bags anxiously.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I found it laying on the ground, it called to me to read it, then it disappeared, just as suddenly. I will not speak of anything I read You have my word on that'.
Samiyah lets out a cry of distress.
Samiyah looks more frantically.
Samiyah turns a bag upside down, shaking it hard.
You say (in common), 'it's GONE!'.
Ghazkull blinks.
Samiyah looks again through each of her bags.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'it disappeared when I had finished, I assumed it had returned to you somehow'.
You shake your head.
You shake your head.
Samiyah searches again with shaking hands.
You say (in common), 'Ghazkull, it's not here..'.
Ghazkull blinks.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'it must have been missing for a while, the last entry was some time ago'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I do not have it though, I promise you that'.
Samiyah nods distractedly, still looking. "I have been so busy..."
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'we all have'.
Ghazkull utters the words, 'locate diary'
Ghazkull shakes his head.
Samiyah bites her lower lip in consternation.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'if it is with someone else then they are not with us at present'.
Samiyah turns her face so you will not see tears spring up in her eyes.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'did you know that it had magical properties?'.
You say (in common), 'no, it was just a book. I have been practicing writing, so that people will not think I am a desert barbarian that is uneduc.. not learned.'.
Ghazkull exclaims, 'you are not uneducated at all!'
You say (in common), 'Venom says I am.'.
You say (in common), 'and a flower and a rock and a goat and many other things and words I did not know.'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'a rock?'.

Ghazkull says (in elven), 'Jade is a green rock, yes'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'but I don't think he meant it that way'.
You say (in common), 'Oh.'.
Samiyah admits softly, embarrassed, 'He uses a lot of words I do not know.'
Ghazkull nods.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'There are several meanings for the word'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'the one I believe he means is, to be worn out or wearied, through overwork or overuse'.
You say (in common), unjade' ?'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'unjaded'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'well, jaded means that'.
You say (in common), 'what does unjade mean?'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I do not think it is an actual word'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'at least, I have not heard of it'.
Samiyah bites her lower lip and admits, 'I might be saying it wrong.'
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I think you mean 'unjaded.
You say (in common), 'Oh. yes. That was it.'.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I'm not quite sure what adding the 'un' to it does to the word, my definition was for 'jaded.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'I would say to put it from your mind'.
Samiyah hmms.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'There is an old saying, 'Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'it's childish I know'.
You nod in recognition to him.
Ghazkull says (in elven), 'but it kind of rings true'.

You say (in common), 'and she meant it to me to know that Sahib was a bad spell on me, but.. In this case, I mean it as the story says -- '.
Corri winks at Ghazkull.

You tell DarkClaw (in common), 'That is true, Sayyida, but.. that does not mean I want to _seek out_ conflicts. What will be, will be, but that does not mean I want to hurry that.. I even acknowledged Belgarion, the last time I saw him. Though I think it just confused him very much.'.

You tell DarkClaw (in common), 'nono... I mean... Sahib said that people were worried that I wanted to drink blood, because of a connection.. but we don't think there IS one - I just like him because.. he's .. He's Ghazkull. Not because he drank my blood. And yes -- He looked like week old goat meat that sat in the sun for a long time. But better now.'.

A Path Through the Valley
[Exits: north east west]
The grass below you has been heavily trampled, and you can see large
hoof prints in patches of soft dirt, leaving little doubt centaurs
have passed through here recently. To the east, a solitary oak tree
rises up out of the tall grass. The path continues north or to the west,
toward a collection of stone buildings in the southwest corner of the
valley.
The sky is cloudy and a cold northern gust blows.
