This is personal, isn't it, Admiral? It was foolish of me to place the blame for every departure on the Wardens' shoulders when we all know who holds the keys to the doors leading in and out around here, don't we? But this time it wasn't enough that I'd come to accept the presences of any of these people, or that I might have just begun to trust ( Read more... )

[This is Mozenrath. He's much smaller, not as small as he was in the last kid flood, but smaller. He's actually a few months shy of a massive growth spurt that will make him gangly and awkward. Presently, aged 12. He clears his throat awkwardly ( Read more... )

For those of you that have been here at least a year, try reading backward in your journals. Just as an experiment. Don't worry; I don't mind waiting while you do this. Look at the things you talked about a year ago. Go further back if you want to ( Read more... )

Some of you are aware by now that the culprit responsible for poisoning Jim Profit has been found. Those same people are also aware that I did, in fact, create that potion. True to my original claim, however, I did not sell it. I gave it to the person in question and made it only for that occasion. Also note that I WILL open this post to other ( Read more... )

So let's chat about policy, Barge. Since we all seem to have varying levels of reactions lately to Wardens behaving badly. So we've discussed the witch. That's sorting itself -- the Wardens scramble to instill some image of accountability to satisfy themselves and the complaints of their charges. This is what they need, you see. Something to pat ( Read more... )

If this place does nothing else, then at least it serves as a constant reminder as to why I'm glad I killed that self-righteous old bastard and would do it again in a heartbeat. I almost want to be sent home just so can abuse his corpse a little more.

I'd say I'm thankful for things getting back to normal, but there's really no such thing anymore.

That potion you requested. That would alter your appearance. Still willing to purchase?

[Private to Judas]

Your order is ready. I'll understand, of course, if you are no longer interested in buying it. Seeing as how you're all ( Read more... )

[On realizing this is the first thing he can find that's out of place in his room, Mozenrath plays with it and quickly learns it's a communication device. The face that appears onscreen is younger by a few years, at least. The face and body appear a little more gaunt than usual, given his slowly improving health on board the ship. In fact, he's ( Read more... )

Well, Admiral, I'm not really covering anything that's not already been said or at least is not felt, but I kind of hope you wound up here by dying too. And I hope it took a long time, and was horribly painful, possibly degrading, and haunts your nightmares still. Because I'm having trouble accepting the notion that you didn't know this would ( Read more... )

Is there a way I can stay? People keep saying we'll be gone soon. What do we have to do to stay?

I work hard. I don't know how to do a lot of things, but I can learn. You can put me to work. I won't eat a lot either.

...I don't want to go back to him. I don't want to learn magic.

I'll do what I'm told if you'll let me stay. I'll do whatever you want
