Samiyah's Journal

I have decided to start a journal, as I can sometimes be absent minded. My head is so full of songs, that it seems there is little room to remember things. Perhaps putting them to paper will help.

When I first left home, many were kind and gave their help. Aoide, Eathor, Ink and Faile provided me with many pieces of clothing to wear, and magic to help me on my way. The three of us spent many hours together, and their words of encouragement helped me to find my way in this very new and strange world. While I do not remember the days that they helped me... I will never forget their many deeds.

07/24/2010:

Today I met one of the most famous bards in the world, Whistler! He helped me with a Mobhunt, and I reached the fourth round with the help of he and Eathor. Eathor obtained a Lyrical for me, though I am not sure I understand what they do. He said that's okay, he is still learning about them as well. Following his directions, I took my first trip through the Vortex, going to Nydia. We traveled across the lake and down the river pathways to the Temple of Isiira, where he slew a mummy and obtained the Sustenance Lyrical for me to study. It was beyond my comprehension, however. Faile visited, and gave me much encouragement. She was very distracted, and I soon learned why. (Faile in a Fluster).

03/06/11:

I awoke as if from an enchanted slumber today. Much time had passed since my last waking. Many of my possessions were gone. I sought to regain my bearings and ran afoul of some heavily armored grubs and bugs with too many arms. I perished. Ink was kind enough to help me, travelling swiftly with Myst to the elven lands and regaining my things. While I rested in the temple, trying to regain my strength, Eldric gave me healing and blessings. Myst teased me about carrying too many useless things - but who is to know if they might be needed?! - but admitted that she had the same vice. IT was this day that I met Belsambar, and he was keenly interested in the bark that Faile gifted me with. He demanded to know its properties. Then he wanted to know about my dragonscale shirt. It made me uncomfortable, his persistence, and I finally had to ask him to leave me alone... yet still he persisted. Myst told me to be careful, as Belsambar can sometimes be 'creepy'. I had to agree. I went out to adventure for a while, and met Cremini when I stumbled into him fighting in the Delving. I gave him a spell and accidentally broke his mobmastery quests. I thought to pursue a location quest, and headed to the Living Lands. There, I was found by Zmandforkso, who attacked me! His spells tore at my very soul, disembowling me. With my last strength, I quaffed a shimmering elixir, which brought me to safety. I thanked him for the reminder to be more on my guard and told him I appreciated the lesson. Determined not to cower in the guild, I sought a MobHunt, which Swyth helped me with by registering. Alas, the sand-cats proved too strong for me, when I dared to creep into the deserts of my home.

Zmandforkso gossips (in common), 'whose stalking you samiyah'.
You gossip (in common), 'some guy named belsambar'.
Zmandforkso gossips (in common), 'wow his a stalker?'.

Zmandforkso gossips (in common), 'hahah'.

Swyth gossips (in common), 'I think he just takes pride in being informative'.

12/16/11:

A man named Tristram died many times today. I gave him most of my gold, so that he might purchase some clothing to wear.

12/17/11:

Today my journeys took me far and wide. I was tasked to kill a 'Rebel Trainee' and learned that it dwells in the Frontier Lands. It was a fearsome thing to travel the ocean, but I made it to the town of Braddlebury where the trainee is found. Alas, I could not find the key and met with failure. Though she did not know the answer as to where the key might be found, Miressa was kind enough to provide encouragement. Sayyida Bliss ran an auction of scores, and insisted that I speak Orc with her upon my winning an auction for a song that would teach me that language.

01/27/12:

Lexie greeted me today with an offer of some scrolls. Her kindness has been a bright light in Aoide's absence. We met in Midgaard, so that someone named Morphius would not put her in fetters. Sahib Lycron created an auction of some scores, and asked if I would need a Bard Review. It was kind of him to ask, but I know that I am a long away away from being ready. Jaerith Alandor of the Legion gifted me with a scroll out of the blue, which was very kind of him. (Though he spoke in the language of Ogres and I could not understand what he said.) I was outbid (by a great deal) for an auction on a restring voucher by Allanthon; may he use it in good health. I travelled to Sanguinna, and was swarmed by vampire bats that made me run away from the pain they caused. I found rest and continued my efforts, and there tried to find a Vampiress, as Kale advised me that was the best place to look. Sadly, the fog, angry men, and other vampires were too much for me and I had to retreat to the temples.

02/01/12:

Uthmar showed me kindness today, making a large number of mushrooms for my travels. Lady Bliss was giving away restrings today, and I asked her to craft one for me. She sewed me a veil! (Though she said that she poked herself with the needle many times, and it took her a very long time to make.)

03/18/12:

Today, the Sahib Tynian was running a quest. I was able to find several items and submit them.

04/01/12:

I met Bortex the Battlemage today. We bartered back and forth - truly, it was like being at the souk market - and agreed that should he find scores or scrolls, that he would sell them to me. When he had more things to sell than I had gold, he very kindly lowered his price so I could afford them all. I was able to memorize a scroll and learned three scores!

04/04/12:

When I awoke today, I found that my magic rings that Eathor gave me had disappeared. Cresom was very kind and retrieved them both. A thousand blessings upon his head. Bortex had some scrolls and scores for me to buy today. I think this is an agreement that will help me a great deal, as he seems to travel far and wide. Fayil, who I had never met, introduced himself with the offer of a scroll! I travelled back from Kharad Delving and met him in the guild. Sadly, when I tried to read it, the words melted from the page and I failed. Later, Bortex contacted me with more offers, but I had spent my gold on supplies. Upon hearing my balance, he gave them as gifts. He is a generous and kind man. That evening, Cresom and I spoke in his temple. He asked if I had considered giving worship to a god. I said that I had, from time to time, but that people from all sorts of followings had made veiled threats of harm, should I join anyone other than their group. I explained that I feared to make any such choice, else I would earn enemies just by doing so. He agreed that Bards seem to need help from all quarters to survive and succeed, and reminded me to check the pit as he often puts scores there. While we were speaking, something very strange happened. A gnome, who said he belonged to Boromir, staggered in and tried to steal Cresom's beer. He belched and then staggered out. It is hard to imagine an Immortal keeping such company! After it left, Lord Hutt allowed me to see his presence and I thanked him for the hospitality of his temple and followers. It seems that Tynian's quest is still ongoing, but there was little I could do to help Borlan build his tower. I wonder, though, how stable any tower can be, when it is build on the second floor of a building... and how the owner of the Grunting Boar will feel when it projects through the roof..

05/10/12:

Not much to write about in my journal today. Bolaon was kind and offered help, but I could not tarry overlong.

05/19/12:

When I went to the market and announced my interest in buying scrolls and scores today, Kylor of the Legion gave me two as a gift. Though he spoke in Dwarven, which I did not understand, it was kind of him to make the gift. Later, he asked me if I had a high level scroll of Improved Invis, but I do not, and gave him that reply. Seithr of Wisdom asked if I needed Identifies, but at that time, I had no need. The folk of Wisdom seem very kind. I asked him if he knew where a Mist Wolf was, but he had never seen one. No one else was able to guide me, so I failed that quest. Lord Lycron's office was invaded and some thieves stole some apples from him. I saw some, but did not realize the importance of them, and failed to gather them. I was tasked to find a 'young minotaur child' and explored both Mithas and War'loov's fortress, but could not find it. My friend, Bortex, had suggested both spots, but it seems this quarry is elsewhere. While travelling Mithas, I accidentally attacked the wrong ghost. Champas BladeBane was happy to teach me a lesson. I asked for help, and Kylor offered. After travelling to the temples, he cast Darkness and the ghost vanished. Later, as I was returning from Kuroth on a Mobhunt (I was later eliminated at round 3), it returned, and chased me half the length of the Great Western Road. This time, Troy of the Wyld Hunt assisted me. He also located a Lyrical, but it was held by a 'crazed pirate' and that seemed like a bad idea... I kept on about my business on the Mob Hunt. Moments later, he asked if anyone needed mushrooms, and as it seems I am always hungry, I met him at Took Hill at his request. He attempted to empty the bag, and lost all that he had in it. I felt badly for being an oblique cause to his losing other items. I spent a while wandering the world, looking for specific places. In some, I was successful. In the land of the dragonettes, however, their fierce little bursts of flame drove me away before I found the room I needed. My biggest trial now, other than finding scores and scrolls, is the Vortex. As I cannot become invisible, the Nightmares have tasted of my flesh many a time. More than once, I escaped its winds with barely a breath in my chest. I long for the day that I can be as stealthy as Eathor.

05/21/12:

A day of unpleasantness. I was approached by one of Wisdom, named Kahaan. He asked if I had low level scrolls to sell. As I memorize all the low level scrolls I have, and retain only the higher level ones, I told him no. I explained that I, too, am always buying scrolls, and memorize all that I can. A short time after our talk, he died. I can only assume that it put him in a bad temper, for later, he offered to trade me a score for one of my scrolls. I again explained that I memorize all the low level scrolls I obtain.

KaHann tells you (in common), 'should have taken that deal i just sacced 3 scores'.
You tell KaHann (in common), 'that's very unkind of you to gloat.'.
KaHann tells you (in common), 'i offered a deal son..'.
You tell KaHann (in common), 'first, I'm a girl, not a boy. Second, I didn't have what you were seeking'.
KaHann tells you (in common), 'you have scrolls?'.
KaHann tells you (in common), 'i located them on you'.
You tell KaHann (in common), 'not low level ones'.
You tell KaHann (in common), 'you asked for low level. I memo all the low level ones I find'.

Lexie brightened the day by Mobhunt Registering, so I could continue my efforts after I was eliminated. Kahaan joined the hunt, and slew one of the smaller creatures. I was unsuccessful in finding another that I could reach, so I was eliminated and he qualifed for the second round. In frustration, I drank a potion to return to the guild, and wound up in an eagle's nest, where I was slain. Hungry and thirsty, I could not regain my strength to travel back. Teva and Lexie both offered to search for my belongings. Fortunately, I was able to just barely defeat a dog, and gain enough gold to buy some bread. I slept in the temple, then ran back to where I had died, recovering my belongings. Shaken, I decided to stay in the guild for a time. Kahaan resumed his taunting by selling scores on auction at a price far above my means. I did not take the bait, and simply sought my rest.

05/23/12:

Today took me to mines deep within the earth, where I sought to find a miner. Its protectors, some Dwarven Warriors and Shaman, where far too strong for me to prevail. I did succeed in slaying a bronze dragonette, and a spirit however. Late in the evening, I saw my friend, Aoide. The weight of the spirits seems to be heavy upon her. She spoke of death and dying and vengeance in a way that I have not heard from her before, and says that for something called Triat Mastery, she has forsaken the living. I told her of Kahaan's unkindness, and she counselled me to vengeance. When I demurred, she smiled and said perhaps she could someday be its instrument. I also spoke with Sayyaida DarkClaw, and she asked me to translate that title for her. We spoke a short time:

DarkClaw gossips, 'I've yet to ask, Samiyah, but curiosity can no longer wait. What does that term mean?'.
You gossip (in common), '"Honored Lady"'.
DarkClaw gossips, '*eyes widen in surprise, a frown crossing her lips* Though I thank you, I don't deserve such a title.'.
DarkClaw tells you, 'I strayed from my path long ago...leaving those who counted on me behind. There was nothing of honor in that.'.
You tell DarkClaw (in common), 'Forgive my disagreement - You are Immortal. That is all that matters.'.
DarkClaw tells you, '*smiles faintly* I suppose you are correct there. Some things cannot be undone, no matter how far we stray.'.
You tell DarkClaw (in common), 'Or how far we travel... yet still, there is always the path home.'.
DarkClaw tells you, 'Indeed. I've found it again...I only hope for forgiveness.'.

As she often does, Lexie offered to help me find some scores and scrolls. When she was busy, I asked Celeste of the Legion for help, but she was focused on another task. Hedschott of the Magi was too busy even to answer. So I went about my business. Plague was rampant in the Guild, and I caught the fever twice, myself. (Morgaine and Miressa were kind enough to provide cures.) When I was at the pit, looking for scores, a member of the Magi named Rydell also was struck with the fever. I called out to the world to ask for help, but he immediately departed the chamber. Lexie returned about that time, and told me of more places to find scores. One such place was the delving, so I travelled there immediately. Even as swiftly as I ran, someone else was there first. Corpses were piled high, all members of the guard. I wondered who else might seek the score, and saw that Kylor was there.


Kylor yells (in common), 'sac'd it'.
Kylor yells (in common), 'that's for getting me unfettered'.

You yell (in common), 'Why would you do that?'.
You yell (in common), 'And how did I do that?'.

I got no answer from Kylor, and sought audience with Lord Cecil. He did not answer, either, so I wrote him a missive. As I was writing, Natilena created a great battle and many of the mighty were drawn into it, fighting. Hedschott of the Magi was the winner. After the conflict was over, I sought my rest.

05/24/12:

No word from Lord Cecil as of yet as to the actions of Kylor. I am troubled by such unreasoned and unprovoked spite. He has been so kind in the past, it took me completely by surprise.

Vendetta of Wisdom was kind enough to locate some scores. One was far away on the North Sava River, but I was able to slay the dragonfly and obtain it. Another was in the Delving, which I also obtained. I accepted a few Mobmastery challenges, defeating the Minister of Craftsmen and a black raven. Orgrim of the Magi, I was told, had many scrolls, by friends who were trying to locate them. I approached him, and he sold me three. Memorizing them allowed me to level, and I requested a Bard Review. Natilena was kind enough to hear my song (Samiyah - Level 10 Bard Review) and gave it her approval. Afterwards, I travelled a bit and gained another level. It was a day of accomplishment.

05/25/12:

Today my travels took me well around the world. I focused on mobhunts, and qualified for the second round in one. Alas, the third was beyond me. I switched over to location quests and completed four. My attempts at mobmastery were poor as well: with success at defeating a blue flame, failure with a mess steward, Barbegazi Secret Priest, deckhand and fireworm. Vendetta was very kind and gifted me with several scores, and also spent time locating them for me. Belsamber also helped with a few locates. Where 'a hunting falcon' is, few seem to know, but it has clung determinedly to a score for many days now. Miressa was kind and allowed me use of her Trading Post quill, so that I might slay a librarian to liberate the score she held. It was my first trip to the Trading Post, and the angry attack dogs enjoyed savoring my flesh - though I made a successful escape. Apparently, there are more librarians than thought... for the one in the Post did not have what I sought. Celeste of the Legion and I made a trade: some 25 mana boots for 5 scores to be delivered in the future, her word as bond. With the help of friends, I was able to memorize 9 scores today.


05/26/12:
Still no response from Lord Cecil. I admit a bit of disappointment. I had thought the behavior of his followers would at least merit an answer to my message.

Three mobmasteries today in total: A bald eagle, a white tailed buck, and a mummy. Portobello provided some guidance on where to find the eagle - all the way to the Frontier, on the Sava River. Additionally, he gave me two scores! When I auctioned a request to hire a bold adventurer to slay some creatures holding scores that were too big for me, Anduin declared that he 'sacs scores.' While travelling the world, I used the Vortex for speed and convenience one trip. There, I ran into what seemed like every Nightmare to be found. They chased me from place to place, their teeth nipping at me. I fled, and wound up in the Demon Realm. There, a shadow demon found me! I fled, straight into two succubae found me and attacked! I fled again, quaffing a potion, and somehow escaped. The two demonesses pursued me to the recall room. There, Kylor told me to go to the Temple Courtyard. I declined, not trusting him from his behavior a few days ago.

Kylor says (in common), 'who's party'.

You say (in common), 'Mine.'.

Kylor tells you (in common), 'come to tc'.

You tell Kylor (in common), 'No thank you.'.

Kylor tells you (in common), 'bastid'.

You tell Kylor (in common), 'I beg your pardon?'.

Kylor tells you (in common), 'that was a mistell'.
Kylor tells you (in common), 'I meant that for porto, he unfettered me'.

You tell Kylor (in common), bastid' implies male. I'm female.'.

Kylor tells you (in common), 'yeah... that was for porto'.

You say (in common), 'Kylor offered to help me.'.
You say (in common), 'but I do not trust him.'.

Portobello nods.
Portobello says (in common), 'i wouldn't'.

Portobello says (in common), 'fortunately for you he's bloo'.
Portobello says (in common), 'so he can't really kill/loot you'.

You say (in common), 'no, but he can express malice in other ways'.

=======================================================

Kylor says (in common), 'Nice major amulet'.

Bortex says (in common), 'this foe is beyond me'.

You giggle.

Bortex throws back his head and cackles with insane glee!


Kylor says (in common), 'No you're in trouble.'.
Kylor says (in common), 'now'.
Kylor says (in common), 'even'.

Bortex says (in common), 'i do not see it, do either of you know if the hunt code is still broken?'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Notice the demons have left?'.
Kylor says (in common), 'The hunt code is working as it should.'.

Bortex nods.
Bortex says (in common), 'oh okay'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Mobs no longer sit forever in safe rooms'.

Bortex says (in common), 'ohh'.

Kylor says (in common), 'they will return when you least expect it'.

Bortex nods.

You say (in common), 'I accept that risk.'.
You say (in common), 'Better than trusting you, Kylor.'.
You say (in common), 'I will take my chances with the demonesses.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'That is your choice.'.

Arya tells you (in elven), '2 scores here now'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Whether it is wise or not remains to be seen.'.

You tell Arya (in common), 'I cannot come. I have two demonesses on me.'.

You tell Arya (in common), 'I thank you for thinking of me though.'.

You shrug.

You say (in common), 'You accused me falsely'.
You say (in common), 'and I have proven it to your god.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'It is evident in who you associate with'.

You say (in common), 'yes, Vendetta and Celeste and horrid people, apparently, as they are people I asked for aid as well that day.'.
You say (in common), 'Hedschott, I asked and gained no answer. Celeste was too busy. Lexie helped, in kindess.'.
You say (in common), 'what did you do? You destroyed that which I need to level, out of miserable spite.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Yes as did your shaman friend'.

You say (in common), 'Because someone else, unrelated to me, unasked by me, did you an unkindness.'.
You say (in common), 'so speak with your forked tongue to someone else, Kylor.'.
You say (in common), 'For I have seen you for the snake.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Yes well I see the value of one score as an equal to the value of an unfetter'.
Kylor says (in common), 'we're even'.

You say (in common), 'had I cast an unfetter upon you, perhaps'.
You say (in common), 'but I did not'.
You say (in common), 'nor did anyone else at my request'.
You say (in common), 'you blame me for Rydell's actions'.
You say (in common), 'when I had NOTHING to do with them and had never associated with him'.

Kylor says (in common), 'You did lie about his location.'.

You say (in common), 'I simply gossiped he had plague'.
You say (in common), 'I did NOT. He was where I said he was'.
You say (in common), 'and the log supplied to your god proves it'.
You say (in common), 'YOU were simply too slow to catch him there.'.

Kylor chuckles, evidently amused.

Kylor says (in common), 'I'd like to believe you.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'but alas'.

You say (in common), 'the log does not lie.'.

You shrug.

Kylor says (in common), 'It's too suspicious'.

Bortex says (in common), 'Bard, Mage, let us have a beer and talk of another battle '.
Bortex grins happily.
Bortex draws a cold, frosty beer for Kylor.
Bortex draws a cold, frosty beer for you.

Kylor downs a cold, frosty beer.
Bortex downs a cold, frosty beer.

You say (in common), 'There is a bird in the sky! A dog bit me! Ah, it is the bird's fault...'.
You say (in common), 'that is your logic.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Fact is, one score isnt going to kill you, nor does it define me.'.

You say (in common), 'it revealed your spitefulness.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Oh yes, I have spite.'.
Kylor says (in common), 'The duties I am assigned grow spite.'.
Kylor says (in common), 'that's the way it works'.

You say (in common), 'Go away, Kylor. Before I write a song about you.'.

Kylor says (in common), 'Write what you want.'.

Kylor shrugs.

Kylor says (in common), 'Fact is you seem awefully emotional over one score.'.

You say (in common), 'You are still talking. I am not certain why.'.
You ponder the question.

Kylor says (in common), 'spite'.

You say (in common), 'indeed.'.

Samiyah gets out a parchment and quill and pot of ink.

Kylor gasps in astonishment.

Samiyah hums softly as she thinks, tapping the quill on the paper.

Kylor shakes nervously.

Kylor says (in common), 'Tell me... where did someone so small get such nice items?'.
Kylor says (in common), 'No need to tell me... I already know.'.


When the song was completed, I performed it in the Kitchen for an audience of one. Later, I was chatting with Vendetta, and told her of the morning's events, and Kylor's destruction of the score. She was horrified, and offered to speak to Cecil on my behalf. I told her that I had already written to him, and told her of the song I wrote. She asked to hear it as well. To cheer me up, she went off to find some scores. Dun of the Magi also gifted me with a scroll. Dun offered to help me with the demonesses, but they did not show up, though we waited for quite some time. I was exhausted, and sought some rest.

The moment I awoke from my nap, Vendetta was giving me locations of scrolls and scores. I don't know what I would do without her generous help. I travelled to N'Kai for the second time, there defeating Lin-Tra, and obtaining a scroll he held. A friend of a friend mentioned to me that they had heard Khali sacrificing scores that Vendetta was locating. I decided to attempt a mobhunt, which Khali, another bard, also participated in. To my surprise, while I was in D'Nal N'Tor, she entered the area and began slaying myconids - our target. After a few were killed, she asked if I was exp'ing. I explained I was there to mobhunt. Usual ettiquette among bards is that whoever gets there first, is given the opportunity to pursue that quarry. Khali did not observe such courtesy, and began slaying the myconids. She was much stronger than I, and could slay them much faster. I moved to the farthest reaches of the caves, and kept trying my best. At one point, she entered the chamber and attacked the myconid I was already fighting. She struck the death-blow and obtained the mobhunt point. I was appalled at such rudeness. I was eliminated and she continued on in the quest.

Khali tells you (in common), 'Are you mob hunting or XPin?'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'mobhunting'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'Ok then I won't feel too too bad about being here :)'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'something tells me you wouldn't, either way'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'How can you say that, we don't even know each other.'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'Vendetta mentioned you were saccing scores and smirking earlier'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'Why would I ever sac a score?'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'one can only wonder.'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'vendetta is wrong'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'I memo scores'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'whatever.'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'So rather than get to know me you assume I am mean and believe vendetta...'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'well, your inteferance certainly bears that out.'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'even though its clearly ridiculous for a Bard to sac a score....'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'we are engaging in a mobhunt... we are supposed to compete...'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'If you were Xpin I was going to leave.'.
You tell Khali (in common), 'Please accept this as my formal request that you not speak to me any more.'.
Khali tells you (in common), 'So be it.'.

I told Vendetta of our conversation, and that Khali had said she was a liar. Vendetta is a passionate girl, and immediately began discussing it on gossip.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'khali im not a liar wtf u talking about'.

Khali gossips (in common), 'Sami said that you accused me of saccing scores. I simply said that wasnt true.'.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'you didnt'.
Vendetta gossips (in common), 'some other legion did'.
Vendetta gossips (in common), 'jerk'.

Bolaon gossips (in common), 'i never did'.

You gossip (in common), 'ah, earlier, you mentioned her name.'.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'some other legion jerk did'.

Khali gossips (in common), 'Why are you calling me names??'.

You gossip (in common), 'perhaps there was confusion. :)'.

Khali gossips (in common), 'I did nothing...'.

Miressa gossips (in common), 'wasn't me!'.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'not you'.

Khali gossips (in common), 'I memo scores....'.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'calling the score saccer a jerk'.

Khali gossips (in common), 'Yes well you can keep your hatred for that jerk away from me, I have done nothing.'.
Khali gossips (in common), 'I am simply mobhunting as I am required to do.'.

Vendetta gossips (in common), 'it wasnt directed to you, sorry'.

[ 13] Vendetta: goods picking on UA

To: all
Why is a good follower picking on a UA?
Bard to bard even. Please.
I'm sick over this. Khali, stop picking on lower level bards


[ 14] Khali: mobhunts
Sat May 26 17:19:01 2012
To: all
I will continue to mobhunt to gain my levels regardless of who else is mobhunting.
I am sick of Vendetta and other members of wisdom bad mouthing the Legion.
Let's stop the good on good trash talk.
Khali.


[ 15] Vendetta: this is about Samiyah
Sat May 26 17:37:22 2012
To: all
Khali, this is about what you did to a UA lower level bard.
so stuff it
mmm making me want those stuff bread things from somewhere. bah.

[ 16] Hutt: Enough
Sat May 26 17:57:47 2012
To: all
1. Where is the proof of the bad mouth/trash talking from my guys about Legion?
2. Maybe there is a moral reason behind Vendetta's note
3. I will personally talk to Cecil about the subject at hand, so from here on out drop the issue.
- Hutt, Philosopher of Wisdom.

P.S. I have personally witnessed Legion bashing Wisdom about our acts, so it is only "fair"
we get to do the same. Most of us are grown ups let's keep this bickering private. If you
can not come to a agreement on private channels post the notes to Cecil and me, I am sure
Cecil and myself can fix the problem.

Upon awakening, Teva gifted me with a score! A location quest to the Thain's office was successful. 10 scores memorized and one scroll. Bortex has been very helpful, gathering many. Our financial arrangement is working out well - though I need to spend some time raising gold to ensure I have the funds to pay. Teva was doing battle with a variety of folks, and at one point, he walked in and handed me a bag. Fearing it was from one of his attacks, I immediately replied: You tell Teva (in common), 'I'd prefer not to receive the bags, if that's ok'. he had not yet returned to reclaim it, when Rincewind appeared in the room.

Rincewind laughs.
Rincewind Samiyah holding bags for evils, WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED!!!

You roll your eyes.
You say (in common), 'he handed it to me and walked away'.
You say (in common), 'You tell Teva (in common), 'I'd prefer not to receive the bags, if that's ok'.'.

Teva his not here.

You say (in common), 'Rincewind Samiyah holding bags for evils, WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED!!!'.

Rincewind looks at Teva.
Rincewind looks at Teva.
Rincewind looks at Teva.
You say (in common), 'You tell Teva (in common), 'I'd prefer not to receive the bags, if that's ok'.'.

You give bag made from secretary hide to Teva.

Rincewind give her the egg too.

You shake your head.

Teva drops bag made from secretary hide.
Teva drops an egg casing.
Teva sacrifices an egg casing to Isolas.
Teva sacrifices bag made from secretary hide to Isolas.

You say (in common), 'I didn't want the first bag'.

Rincewind laughs.
Rincewind pats Teva on his back.
Rincewind well done!

Teva patiently twiddles his thumbs.

Rincewind smiles happily.

Disgusted, I sought a nap. Sometimes, it's the only thing to make a day better.

Upon awakening, I set out to continue my efforts. An attack dog fell to my weapon, and promptly spawned a ghost. While I was fighting it in the Temples, it fled, just as another ghost entered the room. I cast my spell, only to realize my mistake! The ghost of Teva's life-drain *** ANNIHILATES *** you! I fled for my very life. Two demonesses and the ghost of a Magi are now very, very angry with me... along, it seems, with half the Legion. This has not been a good week. :( Hoping another nap would make it better, I sought rest.

After my second nap (running about the world is hard and exhausting work!) I woke to find two members of the Wyld Hunt waiting for me. They had heard of my latest composition, and asked me to perform it for them. I gladly did so: A Song For Kylor. A young Magi was present named Violaine and also listened. Afterwards, Lore very kindly gave me a monetary gift, in appreciation of the song, as did Violaine and Portobello. It was well timed, as my gold reserves have been very low of late, and Bortex has had many scrolls and scores to sell.

14 more scores memorized!

05/28/12

Teva's ghost showed up again, and Teva himself showed it the omnipotence of the Nashite god, Isolas, sundering it. I slew an ice elemental for mob mastery, and gained a level! Four location quests done, today. Mish sold some scores, but another bard, Gheorghe, had greater funds than I, and was able to purchase them.

05/29/12

Still no response from Cecil. I reposted my note. Bortex had ten scores for me this morning! Thank goodness for Lore's generosity - I had just enough remaining to pay Bortex for the scores.
