[pnpgm] Game Update #109

[John Hooten]

  Raban smiles, "My apologies then, I must have misunderstood you. I 
have no performance anxieties, it need not be a private performance 
though generally such things are only done for smaller audiences. In 
fact my Goddess would prefer it that way, though I have found many 
cultures tend to consider it as a criminal act or at least a 
questionable one. As I said, my only difficulty with this is that I 
cannot control it and the way some would interpret it. So others have 
had such things occur? That makes me wonder more about it as many 
magical mishaps I have had resulted in a joining of souls or minds 
briefly. Maybe that is what this is, a joining of souls to do the 
healing and it only works as it does because that is when our souls 
become close enough to join naturally. If that is so then it may be 
something I can learn to control better with more practice. Someday I 
could be able to use it during massage, though my Goddess would prefer 
the original methods there are times they are not practical. As to be 
expected from a Druid, you have shown yourself to be very wise and 
knowledgeable, I should have thought to ask about this before. My 
Goddess rarely speaks to me with more than feelings to tell me right 
from wrong. She does think I am neglecting my duties a bit much even 
under these conditions. Sadly my horse is too overburdened or at least 
one Lady would have helped more with my duties. I may need to use 
another bath house when we have a chance as it is a harmless way that 
does not draw too much of the wrong attention. Unfortunately such a 
brief visit was unfair to the ladies last time, but that too is part of 
my duties, some other lucky man will gain the benefits unknowing..."

      "Feel free to examine me however you need too, I doubt I have many 
secrets yet to uncover, though I do have a number of small gifts. I once 
thought they were some offset for my size, but such thoughts would mean 
I see my size as a bad thing. I understand the Gods work in mysterious 
ways and do not bestow such gifts without reason. Just because such 
reasons are not obvious to me does not mean they are not there. I tend 
to not use my other gifts unless they are greatly needed as too many 
already see me as a monster. My goal in life is simply not to prove them 
right by becoming one when it if far too easy to do so. Fortunately my 
good looks, personality and skills quickly overcomes first impressions 
based on my height. Then they find more appreciation for the benefits of 
my size, of which there are many. Often my worst problems are buildings, 
it pays to wear a good tough cap! Actually the worst is Dancing, so few 
places have enough room for me to really dance. Because of that, my 
performance is so far below what it should be. It will take me a long 
time to surpass my Mother's skill like she desired, but someday..." <To 
the curious, he already dances well enough for a royal stage ;) >
