From dannimal@engin.umich.edu Wed May 11 21:23:32 1994 Date: Wed, 11 May 1994 16:26:01 -0400 (EDT) From: Dann Fuller To: shadows@umich.edu Subject: Ulysses (130/10) <> The war is finally over. Not that the chaosites were fighting for any other reason then for that Tianen bitch to get at the Jewel. The day started much as the last one ended, with me as cosmic telephone. As long as it keeps me off the field, it's cool. As the day draws into night, I am called upon to aid Laughter in her transporting of the puca. For lack of a better method, we were going to Trump them through ten at a time, with three people pulling. As I was constructing the trumps, Fiona stopped in to tell me how inefficient I was. Good thing, because she went so far as to tell me how to build a Trump gate. Maybe she's not so bad after all. But that's a worry for later. I get the gate to Laughter, and she's a bit surprised to see that I made it. She brings her army through to the designated point, and waits. Again in the morning, life continues much as it has. Laughter contacts me, and asks me to get Fiona to let magic work long enough for her to cast spells. Fiona says no, but she will take care of things for Laughter. It is discovered that the puca were being used as listening devices, and that's how Chaos had been a step ahead of us, and 20,000 steps ahead of Laugher. Poor girl, she feels bad about leading those puca to their deaths. About midnight, there is an event, that brings attention to the roof. Many chaosites are on the roof, one with a dagger at Random's throat. Tianen is here, she wants Archimedes to abdicate the throne for Random, to Tianen. D'oh. There is much stalling, and then all hell breaks loose. The scroll goes over the wall, as does Tianen, after I give her sketch to Fiona, and Jubal goes wild, and so does Benedict. Sandr and I go after the Jewel and Tianen, only to find Cameron down on the ground before us, and no Tianen in sight. Sandr and I head to the patter, thinking that she might try to attune herself to the Jewel. Nope. We need to get back upstairs, and quick. What a day. ______________________________________________________________________________ Dann Fuller Journ Tarmakk Prince Ulysses of Amber Mac/IBM Repair Chancellor, Eternal Ban Trump Artist, Alcoholic, CAEN Service Center Technicolor Conjuror Nymphomaniac, and all 313-763-5413 Eternal Citadel, Faerun around fun guy. --- dannimal@engin.umich.edu --- God didn't create the world in 7 days, he screwed around for six, then he pulled an all nighter. ______________________________________________________________________________
