- ADMIN: if the fight ends by someone else then amend the following
-
- characters involved : ...sage, Littlefair, Listener, Kevin
-
- "Time to return" thought ...sage, finishing chronicling the adventures
- of the Kron Questors in their battle to rescue Cheyenne from the
- Great Mother.
-
- Opening a worm-hole to his mailbox in the Great Library, ...sage put
- the newly finished scroll inside, then closed it and dusted down his
- mottled green cloak.
-
- ..sage then visualized the entrance into the Dragon's Inn and stepped
- through from Sanctuary into the Inn itself.
-
- Mildly surprised that it worked he wandered to the bar and asked
- Littlefair for a White Russian, then noticing the beginnings of a
- brawl, asked Listener to start up something relaxing.
-
- As Listener's strains wafted through the disorder, those inclined to
- violence suddenly felt very relaxed and the melee broke apart as fast
- as it started.
-
- ..sage sighed, smiled, then realized that a young man by the bar was
- speaking English. The mind readers would have little difficulty making
- themselves understood and understanding him, but for the vast majority
- of the Generica, the poor guy would have little hope of communicating.
-
- "Kevin", he said after catching the young man's name. "If you want
- help with the local lingo - ask me."
-
- ADMIN : ...sage picked up English on the [KQ] thread
-
- He then went back to sipping his drink.
-
- ADMIN : I'm *still* getting *nil* for the review and it won't
- continue if no other input is forthcoming.
-
- I remain the Inn's servant
- ...sage
