Radorac-8354 Nov 29 1994 orcfun This is a very amusing tale, although it could have gone very wrong! I had been wandering between Staers zone and the ford at Rdell for sometime. Everytime there were orcs about I was somewhere else. But this time when near the Maelstrom: Sylan narrates 'orc at ford' Sylan narrates 'solo' [OK, even I should be able to tackle this one for awhile, lets rush to ford] Sylan narrates 'didn't engage i don't have shield' Boan narrates 'orc at last inn' [Lots of souths, easts and norths] Sylan narrates 'fuck orc in rdell!' * Mana:Burning>Sylan narrates 'no shield!' Obvious exits: North - The Inn at the Last Bridge East - The Inn's Stables South - You can't see anything. [No orcs at Inn so on I go] Boan narrates 'find elrond' A trained horse is neighing here, calling its master, ridden by you. Boan the lamer is standing here. [I find Boan on the road hehe company] * Mana:Burning> Boan begins some strange incantations... Boan utters the words, 'hzrzsafh' Boan slowly fades out of existence. [ah hes using a short-cut.
