      Game Update #26 in sequence (file #112)
      ----------------------------------------------------------------

      Admin Notes: Roster updated with notes on language.  The DS
      column is for speaking Donaran/Salaqara.  Y-Yes, N-No, H-Yes but
      not so well.  This is a remainder for me and you mainly.

      [Recap]

         From Kell: [Re: Actions]
           [Kell didn't know Damon, that was meant as an introduction.
           Or so it appears...]

           Ha'Kell is obviously antsy, ready to get going and visit
           someplace new. His Donaran is really bad since he hasn't been
           there, only learned it from another caravan guard years ago.
           He starts practicing it with the group to improve his fluency.

           His gear is fairly light, mainly being the clothing and armor
           on his back, a few bags and pouches, his ebony shield, 3 spears
           and tulwar. The same floppy hat is stuck on his head that those
           in Kiama's Citadel noticed the day he was introduced to the
           party.  The cloak is also the same cloak with the dark edges,
           slightly more worn.  Only his boots are new.
         GM: Ack.

         From Will: [Re: teleport]
           Will nods and says "I should be able to do it but it...
         GM: Ack.

         From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
           Kiet feigns a look of horror on his face (using his acting
           ability) and says "Please! Take precautions!  I'd rather...

           Get it...?  Stoned...?  Rock wall...oh, forget it...
         GM: Ack.

         From  Kell: [Re: Actions]
           Kell bursts out laughing at the acrobat!  After calming down
           he  turns to Kiet and Will, "Mr. Will, tear down that...
         GM: Ack.

      --------------------------------------------------------------
      [New Stuff]

          [Sepes 28th, 1634TH]
          [Location: Sivas, Marentia - Cholan's Tavern]
          [Time: 7:20am]

            Kell's cloak whips in the cool morning breeze.  So far it is
          not winter but it is cooler than a month earlier.  He is clearly
          ready and eager to travel and possibly form new trade relations.

            Squirt seems anxious sitting on his shoulder, munching a bit
          of jerky. The cuddly critter has developed a taste for jerky
          over the past few years.  Kell reaches up and scratches Squirt's
          head.

            Will's wolf occasionally stares and gives a very low growl at
          Squirt.  To him he is just a nice light snack.  But Squirt
          seems undaunted by the large dog.  After all they say in the
          desert the ferret can take on a deadly poisonous snake with
          brave intensity.

            Arawn does some math and figures that he could teleport the
          party but it would take two trips.  Too bad Chion is not here
          but he seems to have more interesting things to do.  Fremea
          is a bit sad not having Chion around as she was just getting
          to know the large man.  Of the group he wears the most hats
          at least for the guys.  Shaman, Healer, Sailor, Warrior and
          wizard among others.

            Will considers the group and with his recent training in
          the spell he should be able to do it.

            Will nods and says, "I should be able to do it but it does
          require some precautions if we don't want Kiet to end up in a
          wall."

            Kiet feigns a look of horror on his face (using his acting
          ability) and says, "Please! Take precautions!  I'd rather not
          be the one to discover a new way to get stoned."

            Kell bursts out laughing at the acrobat!  After calming down
          he turns to Kiet and Will, "Mr. Will, tear down that wall." he
          quips.

            Raban shrugs with a sly smile.  Solid stuff doesn't bother
          him much.  He could plow through most things.  But his own
          half breed status the nature of the Mir that he can somehow
          move through things.

            Will gathers the party together.  He tells the pets to
          stay in contact of their masters.  Will tries to study the
          illusion from the Elder again.  A stone roofed silo about 30
          feet tall.  He considers this might be good.  The ground
          could be problems with bushes or such so this roof yields
          little obstacles.  It is wide enough for the group as well.
          He tells them he'll teleport 33 feet off the ground or about
          3 feet off the roof of the silo.  So they will need to be
          prepared to fall a few feet.

            Arawn then casts a divination spell in hopes to see if the
          group will make it.  He gets the sense that all should be good.
          He nods to Will.

            Since Will's skill is high enough no need to make contact
          like in the old days with Chion.  Will speaks the words and
          begins the spell.  It takes about half a minute then the
          group shifts in a blue haze to a new land hundreds of miles
          away.

            The first thing the party notices is the shift in the sun.
          In Marentia it was bright and sunny.  Here the sun is blocked
          by clouds giving a slight overcast look.  The party drops 4
          feet to the roof - a bit overestimated in distance. Squirt
          falls to the ground not holding too good but is unhurt.
          Corona leaps off Z'leyra and flies away before Z'leyra falls.

            Some bags fall to the roof of the silo before the bodies.
          Unali and Kiet land with a graceful roll.  Kell falls but
          loses his balance and lands on his right knee but does not
          take damage.  The others seem to land gracefully.

            Arawn looks down to his boots and notice he has landed in
          the puddle of bird droppings.  He sighs outloud knowing that
          the forecast worked but it didn't warn him about ruined boots.

            In disguise as a child again Fremea lands since she can't
          use her wings.  The party gather and stand up looking around.
          All around there is great plains in each direction but south.
          To the south it looks like a blur of what must be Salaqara
          on the horizon.  This farm should be a few miles away from
          the city but the party is not sure on distance.  The smell
          of the Sea is tasted slightly on the wind but not as strong
          as it was in Sivas.  The water can't be seen from here.

            The silo is on the north east corner of some farm property.
          To the south is a large barn about two wagon widths from side
          to side and 2 stories.  A two story green painted farmhouse is
          in the south west.  There seems to be some pens for hogs, cows
          and chickens on the property.  To the north west are lines of
          crops of what might be beans but is hard to tell from this
          distance.

            A dog bark jerks the party from their gazes.  A small dog
          is on the ground looking up at the party.   A few moments
          later a man sticks his head out of a covered chicken coop
          and looks around.   He grabs a pitchfork and looks around.
          Then he notices the party.  There is nothing on the roof
          to hide from.  The man dressed in farm blue coveralls looks
          up and frowns.  He is now standing on the ground about 50
          feet away to the south west.  His graying hair seems to
          show he is in his late 40s maybe 50s.  "You there!  What
          in the name of Dylan are you doing up there!?"  The man
          speaks in Salaqara.

            The man raises his pitchfork and whistles. This causes
          two young looking lads to come out of the barn and see
          what the matter is going on.

            Kiet looks around and down to see if there is a ladder
          or such but there seems to be no way down.  Then he notices
          something missing.  Where is Raban?  He notices Raban's
          bag is standing near Unali but the giant is missing.  He
          looks up to the sky but notices only Corona?

          Actions?  Comments?

          Next Update....Monday...

          GM: A small update but now we get the business at hand going.
              It will now go as you guys react.  Notice the Admin note
              above as a reminder for languages.  Consider this the
              Friday update.  Will do another on Monday.  I'm off Monday
              so will work on it early so I can game in D3 :).  Plus
              I still have tons to do with sheets/mana report and such.
              I suspect folks will be on holiday but should not be a big
              issue for posting?

          GM: Teleport precautions are varied.  Some could do Levitate
              and Insub.  But to do 11+ folks would get mana hungry.  So
              I didn't want to wait for John to get info on these precautions
              so I just did it.  With Arawn's Divination spell it sort of gave
              warning that way.  Course a Div spell can be misleading.  As
              you can see above. :)  May see success of such a thing but may
              miss something else.
