Elder: <FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>"...I do apologize for any
trouble it may cause. I learned that you were shipwrecked on our east
coast and I feel obliged to keep you safe while we deal with this problem.
Of course you could stay as a guest in our citadel but I feel you'll be safer
with these friends on their future plans."</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>

never my intent to remain here for a long period of time. I am, however,
surprised that one so insignificant as myself could garner such attention from
both cults and our Master, the High Elder. I am honored and thankful for
your consideration of my safety.</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>"</FONT></DIV>
