An old table featured a parchment of a city with wooden pieces on<br>either side of a central palisade. Also in the room was the Wizard of<br>Puppetland, finishing a few words of enchantment as the wound on his<br>stomach repaired itself in front of Rotterex's eyes. The Human-Bazak<br>cleared his throat and the Wizard turned in a flash.<br><br>"Compressing space for movement was the first skill a learned as
an<br>apprentice, and I have become somewhat of an expert over the years",<br>chirped Rotterex. "And", he sniffed, "finding a half-decayed body was very<br>simple in my new form. So this time, try not run away. I expect that the<br>rest of my Fellowship have neutralised your mad ghosts."<br><br>"I give my word as a bond to my life that we had no idea that the General<br>had reprogrammed the Mostal. A trick clever even from Bazak standards. We<br>thought our old friend had been recovered".<br><br>The Wizard sneered at the wizard. "Fools! The General has no power to<br>recover spirits. They are entirely in my domain. He knows nothing of the<br>mystic arts, of minds and souls. The soul of every puppet he turns into<br>one of his iron guard eventually find their way here, mad as they have<br>lost their body. And you - under a banner of truce, under the banner of<br>The General - breached my hospitality."<br><br>"You dishonourable rat!", the Wizard spat out
with extra venom in his voice.<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Ignorance mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Ignorance@mimesisrpg.com" ymailto="mailto:Ignorance@mimesisrpg.com">Ignorance@mimesisrpg.com</a><br><a href="http://mimesisrpg.com/mailman/listinfo/ignorance_mimesisrpg.com" target="_blank">http://mimesisrpg.com/mailman/listinfo/ignorance_mimesisrpg.com</a><br><br><br> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
