New rumors were added November 9th 2003. Rumors
*As you wander across the dark , open field, you begin to notice a flickering light in the distance to your right. Growing ever curious, you proceed over the dewy grass until you come to a small grove of trees just outside of the ring of flickering light. Peering from around a twisted oak tree, you see two women perched upon a log before a fire. Behind them looms a brightly painted wagon with many shimmering beads adorning the open back. They are talking animatedly, and appear not to notice you.*
*Watching them engaged in conversation, you notice that the woman on the right speaks with an accent. She wears blue and yellow pants and matching top. Many colored beads cascade down the front of her shirt. Her counterpart is slightly less animated and, as she tucks her hair behind her ears, you notice that they are pointed. She wears a skirt and bodice in dark blue and more sopisticatedly trimmed with a woven silver ribbon*
*As you step around the side of the tree in an attempt to hear a bit of their conversation, you slip and land with a resounding THUD! on the ground. As you begin to stand and regain your composure, you look up towards the women. They are rushing toward you and, startled by the sudden noise, the Elven woman's hands begin to glow a mixture of bright purples and silver. The other woman, equally alarmed weilds a frying pan with her right hand as her left hand begins to sparkle like wildfire.*
*The Elven lady shouts:
"With mystic force i Web you!"
*And you feel your hands bind to your sides as if paralized. You begin to panic as you realize that you cannot use your legs either. You're starting to think that maybe this wasn't such a good idea. You recall memories of your childhood when your mother told you that "curiosity killed the cat". Sardonically you think 'well meow'. Suddenly, the women stop their attack, and the more boisterous of the two cocks her head to the side and says to the elven girl:
"He does not LOOK like a sarr."
*For a moment, you are taken aback by her comment. She turns toward you and says:
"Meow again please."
*Receiving a somewhat disgusted look from the elven, the gypsy woman says:
"Vut? I jess haf to make sure."
*At this point in time you realize that your thoughts were clearly NOT left to yourself! After a momentary lapse of embarassment, it dawns on you that, if you can 'meow', then you must be able to talk! You adress the elven:
"Please madame. I meant no harm. I was just curious as to where the light was coming from, and it lead me here."
*She eyes you warily and, deciding that you are of little threat, she releases you from her spell. The gypsy woman says to you:*
"Come sit vith us by the fire. My name is Karahna Damashay, and the pointy ear-ed vun es Rhiannon, but you can call her Rhia. Vould you like some hooch?"
*Soaking in this information, you begin to walk towards the camp. Approaching the camp, you notice the beads in the wagon doorwar begin to sway and out steps a man clad in black. He has a white face offset by ebony lips and upturned eyebrows of the same hue. He is like none you've ever seen before.
He joins you as you seat yourself by the fire. You acknowledge him with a curt 'hello', and he replies:*
"It is my mating season."
*He keeps an emotionless expression despite the nature of his comment. A bit appalled by the slight to your manhood, you stand abruptly and sputter:*
"Are you a mystic wood elf or something!?"
*He replies with a sober 'no' as the women double over in hysteric laughter. Taking a moment to compose themselves, the elven woman explains:
"Lunar (aka Stoney) is a Stone Elf. They show very little, if any, emotion. I assure you that his comment was merely that: a comment. It was not an offer. He doesn't possess the ability to be....umm...tactful because he doesn't experience embarassment."
*She turns her attention towards the Stone Elf*
"See. What did we tell you?! Once again, it would be in your best interest and ours if you would cease to divulge that little bit of information until you have properly explained yourself. K? Now, apologize...just as we practiced."
*Stoney nods his answer to the woman and turns to you. He speaks hesitantly and seems to keep checking with the elven girl to make sure he's 'saying it right' *
"I am...terribly...sorry for the.... misunderstanding. I hope that you can forgive me."
*Satisfied with that, you sit down again, this time across from the man. Karahna offers you a cup. Taking a sip, you swallow hard, barely able to choke the concoction down. You say to no one in particular:*
"Echt! What is this stuff?"
*Karahna laughs:*
"That would be Reesie Damashay's special hooch. It is a bit strong, but it warms you up quick!"
*She takes the cup from you and tosses the remaining liquid into the fire. Everybody but Stoney jumps back as a rolling ball of fire errupts from the flames*
"I call forth a Dragon's Breath!"
*She calls with a jovial grin*
"Sorry 'bout dat. I always wanted to be able to do dat, but I am not a celestial caster."
*As you once again seat yourself on the log, you hear a sound coming from the forest over yonder. A man comes within your range of vision. He is large, about 6'3" and a healthy weight. He wears a crudely cut fur shirt, and carries what looks to be a dead deer on one shoulder. He carries a sword and shield in his free arm. Rhiannon says:*
"Ah! A kill for the fire! Leave it to you to catch another one! Toff,meet our new friend....err...what did you say your name was? Oh, nevermind."
*Toff, the barbarian grins an accomplished smile. After the deer is prepared and begins roasting on the fire you privately talk to:
Karahna to hear of the many rumors around the area, or to hear a poem about her friendQuagmire the Hobbling
Rhiannon to learn of the people in the Duchy of Greyhorn and beyond.
Toff to learn of the exciting world of L.A.R.P.
