Wagner Rescued Top

After a horrible invasion of Sable City by a horde of orcs and orogs, much of the city was in ruins. There was rubble everywhere. The inn was one of the buildings destroyed. Wagner, the well-liked owner, was nowhere to be found. We started digging in the rubble, hoping that he had managed to make it down into one of the rooms below before the whole thing collapsed.

Rubble and Ash

    Here where one of Sable City's buildings once stood, is nothing but rubble
and ash. Charred wood, bent and twisted steel spikes, and burnt bones of
every humanoid variety are all that remain here.

    The sun shines brightly in the western sky.
    Fluffy white clouds drift lazily overhead.

Kerrin Healed Top

One particularly traumatic death caused Kerrin to completely lose his sight. He also suffered a terrible case of amnesia and wound up thinking he'd always been blind his entire life. It took an aweful lot of convincing for him to accept that he might have once been able to see. After about ten years of blindness, his sight was once again restored.

    powers before. How can anyone question her powers and dedication to
    healing?"

Here I lie upon the ground,
I know the end is near.
All I manage is some small sound,
I don't even feel the fear.
In my mind I know I should pray,
But the words they have all gone.
So now I pray to Vivoria
With the notes of this song.

To myself I feel so small,
Now that this time is here.
To call unto Vivoria at all,
To hope to catch Her ear.
I pray I do not ask too much,
Of a goddess such as She.
Please forget about myself,
But instead help one dear to me.

Over them I kneel with my head bowed,
Numb fingers play the lute's strings.
Like my voice the notes have slowed,
Harsh in my ears the rain rings.
I sit here soaked and in the mud,
How could it have ended this way?
Wait! There is a slight stirring.
To Vivoria I shout, "Hooray!"

Sex On Stage Top

Here is the sort of embarassing thing that can happen when people misuse the King's property.

Five of us bards had just finished rehersing a play. The set we had been using was still out on stage. We were all backstage discussing how the rehersal had gone. Suddenly, two people appeared on stage for what they thought was a private romantic interlude.

Some time afterwards the woman was forthcoming with a public apology for the gross misuse of the King's property, so her name has been removed from the transcript below. The fellow was a different story. Over the next several days he accused the entire bard's guild of lying, argued publicly with bards, slapped one bard, threatened the guildmaster of thieves with his scorpien tail, posted sarcastic notes on the public message boards, and wrote disrespectful letters to the guildmaster of bards. Therefore, his name has been left in the transcript below.

Here is what transpired...

A dank underground cavern. Large stalactites hang ominously off
the ceiling. Some reaching almost as low as the ground. There
is a faint echo of dripping water, or maybe even blood. But
there is dripping nonetheless. Philia is surrounded by her new
companions.

  a female catfolk with deep blue eyes with silver flecks
  a male scorpien with a slick, yet ridged carapace

[Stage] Merathian rubs Woman's breasts as they kiss

[Backstage] Kaith hmms
[Backstage] Kaith says, "This is amusing."
[Backstage] -> Jasric peeers around
[Backstage] Thalia says, "Lemme get them"
[Backstage] You say, "Use sound effects!"
[Backstage] Kaith nods
[Backstage] Thalia grins

[Stage] Merathian lays down beside Woman
[Stage] Merathian says, "i love you"

[Backstage] Kaith sniffs

[Stage] Woman rolls over on you and snuggles with you
[Stage] Woman says, "i love you too"
[Stage] Woman sighs
[Stage] Merathian says, "what"
[Stage] Woman says, "the time.."
[Backstage] Kaith says, "I want to do something frightening to them."
[Backstage] Kaith shuffles about uncomfortably

[Stage] Woman says, "i'm sorry"
[Stage] Merathian says, "ye want to come back when you wake?"
[Stage] Merathian says, "we'll make love on the stage here"

[Backstage] Aelyn acks!
[Backstage] Kaith says, "Like hell they will."
[Backstage] Aelyn rolls on the floor laughing
[Stage] Woman says, "i got to go"
[Stage] Merathian says, "thank you"
[Stage] Woman says, "your welcome"
[Stage] Merathian says, "shall i escort you?"

[Backstage] Kaith says, "Can I?"
[Backstage] Thalia says, "damn"
[Backstage] Jasric says, "Let's get some buckets of water?"

[Stage] Woman says, "if you want"
[Stage] A voice booms, "THE DEVIL YOU WILL!"

[Backstage] Aelyn rolls on the floor laughing

[Stage] A voice booms, "LEAVE MY STAGE!"

And then they were obviously flustered upon being discovered...

Merathian enters.
Woman enters.
Merathian enters the stage from the right.
Merathian leaves east.
Woman enters the stage from the right.

[Stage] Merathian says, "uh oh"

Merathian leaves the stage to the right.
Merathian enters.
Woman leaves the stage to the right.
Woman enters.
Merathian leaves weststairs.
Woman leaves weststairs.

Of course, an apology was requested immediately thereafter...

Thalia [threshold] The theater is not to be used for sex. I expect the
    offending couple to post an apology to the King and to the bards whose
    performance they interrupted

Thalia [threshold] and I know your names, so be snappy
