Message-ID: <2213@rabbit.UUCP> Date: Thu, 17-Nov-83 18:29:42 EST Article-I.D.: rabbit.2213 Posted: Thu Nov 17 18:29:42 1983 Date-Received: Sat, 19-Nov-83 01:58:48 EST Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill Lines: 55 In the midst of the silence surrounding you, a retainer wanders over to you and drops a package containing a map and some written instructions in front of you. While you don't have a lot of time to carefully examine the map right now, you manage to gather the following information: There is a path marked on the map. It heads from Ravenswood directly north (with turns mostly for land features) about 30 miles to a well known passage through the southern mountains called the "Landward" passage. About 12.5 miles north of the Landward Gate (a geographical feature, not a man-made feature) the path leaves the passage, and heads west into an unfamiliar part of the island (at least to the graduates). A marking on the map indicates that this turn is marked by rock cairn west of the road, in a small valley that has branches going north, south, and west. About five miles west of the intersection a geographical feature looking like a high altitude valley is shown. It is labeled "Erinsfell". The text suggests to you that this would be a good place to look for healing herbs, etc. Some of the folks in the crowd are looking at the bottom of their mugs, some holding them upside down and shaking them, some looking in with exagerated unhappiness, and some looking at you and pointing to the mugs. The king is waiting (patiently) thus far, for volunteers. ************************* TO: >From harpo!decvax!trw-unix!pearlman Tue Nov 15 13:25:51 1983 -- Laura Pearlman ...{decvax,sdcrdcf,ucbvax}!trw-unix!pearlman I haven't heard from you since your original message, and I would appreciate confirmation that you have received your character stats, etc. ********************* The party now has an animist (presley) and a ranger (bad). While neither of these are permanant yet, they seem to reflect the interests of the players. -- (allegra,harpo,ulysses)!rabbit!jj
