    • As it happened, the Appleblacks didn't know anything specific about the ruins we were planning to explore.  "There is a a general belief that something dangerous is there so most travelers avoid them. Which leads to a lack of useful or up to date information. If you can manage to send us a report on what you find there, we would be most grateful." Anne said the next morning when we met with her before heading out. We promised to send her a report on our findings as soon as we reached a place that could provide a means of sending it. And after checking our supplies and equipment we headed out. The trip to the ruins was uneventful.  This part of the Plane of Shadows just doesn't have much of anything living in it. "So if there is something dangerous in there it's probably going to be a construct or an undead." Yeriko said as we stood on a hill that gave us a good view of the ruins.  "So, we camp here, observe, rest, and then proceed." Hawk said clearing away debris from a flat area near where we were standing.  
    • Earth Water Fire and Air. We may look bad, but we don't care. To ride the Wind to feel the Fire, To serve the Earth, Our one desire. We Ride the Wind, We feel the Fire, To love the Earth, Our one desire. Nature is a precious Gift, it can make your spirits lift. Love the Earth with all your Fire. To serve the Earth, our one desire. Love the Earth it's only fair, it's one big Earth that we must share. We Ride the Wind, We feel the Fire,  To serve the Earth, Our one desire. To serve the Earth, Our one Desire. **************************************** My version of the Hex Girls song "Earth, Wind, Fire, and Air." Wind is Air and why should Water be left out ? Not sure how badly I scrambled the rest of it. I know I swapped serve for love.  Love should manifest in actions not just be an emotion. Anyway. I'm putting this here as a quick way to jot it down. I might tweek it later to better fit the original. Or to maybe do something to include Water better and make a distinction between Earth, the Elemental and Earth, the World.  Maybe use World, if I can find rhymes that will work. 🤔  
    • I thought I'd written more on this somewhere. Anyway. Eric is a son of Loki.  The "Giant" is placed in the belfry of the church. Highest place Eric can reach. The figure will come to life and grow as big as needed whenever the village is in danger. The figure was made by one of the gods and placed where it was as a way to keep Eric safe. There is some prophecy about Eric. Some vague ambiguous thing talking about how he will make a choice that will save or doom the world but if he doesn't make the choice then all is surely lost.  
    • Those four Words Spoken in the ancient language of Power are a personal Finial Strike spell of subtle revenge against a vast number of foes all at once. Your physical body is disintegrated and your Soul shattered into thousands of splinters that penetrate into the psyche of your victims becoming an inheritable Mindseed waiting for the right conditions under which to sprout and grow; slowly displacing their mind and personality, replacing it with a copy of your own.   The non-evil version of this is: Soul Dust Scatter Share. Typically used by a teacher mentor type for the benefit of their students. In this case the soul fragments are not Mindseeds but simply a presence that slowly blends into the fabric of the recipient's mind. Think of that scene in Fern Gully where the grandma teacher lady turns into a bunch of little bits of light.      
    • 😂Was it the sister or the neice who ate half the fries?  You should introduce her to songs by The Vultures or The Boogie Brothers!
