44 "Business is business!" Harding pronounced each sylable with a clarity and
|
|||
|
|
45 firmness that communicated the threat of death to anyone who tried to gainsay
|
|||
|
|
46 him. Royce Harding was entirely capable of carrying out the death sentence,
|
|||
|
|
47 too. Wasn't he the one who cold-bloodedly terminated the existence of 100
|
|||
|
|
48 crew members and their families on Asteriod Mining Station 27009 in order to
|
|||
|
|
49 eliminate the competition for selenium in that region of the asteriod belt?
|
|||
|
|
50 Oh, the official report indicated that the mining station had been destroyed by
|
|||
|
|
51 an explosion caused by the collision of another asteriod with their own. Who
|
|||
|
|
52 was going to challenge the official findings of the Inner Belt Mining Regulator
|
|||
|
|
53 y Commision Saftey and Accident Board of Inquiry? Such an august board of
|
|||
|
|
54 engineers and astrohysicists, mostly on the payroll of Mr. Royce Harding!
|
|||
|
|
55
|
|||
|
|
56 However, such thoughts wouldn't help the crew of Mass Driver B-111 at all, nor
|
|||
|
|
57 me in particular. The thought of being a "victim of an unfortunate accident in
|
|||
|
|
58 space" made me at once sick and angry. His thugs had already herded my crew of
|
|||
|
|
59 four back onto my ship, sans space suits of course. I imagined that his men
|
|||
|
|
60 were setting things up for the "accident" so that all would appear normal when
|
|||
|
|
61 our mass conversion unit exploded, sending the crew compartment hurtling off
|
|||
|
|
62 into space with major damage to the life support and communications systems.
|
|||
|
|
63 His ship would get there too late to save us, unforuneatly. And since our
|
|||
|
|
64 payload would be just sitting there, possibly causing danger to others, he
|
|||
|
|
65 would, out of a strong sense of civic duty, attach one of his own mass drivers
|
|||
|
|
66 to it and head back to the processing station, there to recieve a large
|
|||
|
|
67 commission, not to mention large revenues.
|
|||
|
|
68
|
|||
|
|
69 "Miss Jansen." He paused. I hated the old form of address. Could he see that
|
|||
|
|
70 in my face, and would he care? "You are probably wondering why you weren't
|
|||
|
|
71 taken back to your ship with the rest of your crew." He waited for some sign
|
|||
|
|
72 from me. His face had a Cheshire cat smile that was infuriating. However, I
|
|||
|
|
73 was like a mouse trapped by a cat, and we both knew it. "Yes, the thought had
|
|||
|
|
74 crossed my mind. I'm sure it's not out of compassion," I said as sarcastically
|
|||
|
|
75 as I could. What did I have to loose? The sting of his space suit glove
|
|||
|
|
76 accross my face brought me up straight. "Excellent! I like a spirited woman.
|
|||
|
|
77 However, don't let your cockiness get you into a position from which you can't
|
|||
|
|
78 recover. To be sure, it was not out of compassion that I separated you from
|
|||
|
|
79 your crew. You are one of the best commanders in the entire Mining
|
|||
|
|
80 Organization. I'm always on the lookout for good 'men'." I bristeled again,
|
|||
|
|
81 and he hit me again. "Spirit is one thing, insolence another. I didn't take
|
|||
|
|
82 you for a fool, Jansen. Perhaps your reputation is false?" "What are you
|
|||
|
|
83 offering me, Harding? The chance to work for you, to kill innocent people, so
|
|||
|
|
84 that your profit margin will stay nice and fat? You know me better than that.
|
|||
|
|
85 I'm not crazy about death, either. Have you another offer?"
|
|||
|
|
86 He looked at me in silence. What was he up to? There was that Cheshire cat
|
|||
|
|
87 smile again.

89 Look out, Miss Jansen... sex is the only thing (other than money) on such

|
136 A silent and heatless column of silver flame rose from the narrow
|
|||
|
|
137 dirt path. The column rose six feet upwards before the base left the
|
|||
|
|
138 ground, then faded quickly to show the gnomish figure which had been hidden
|
|||
|
|
139 within the argent brilliance.
|
|||
|
|
140 Grann moved slowly down the path, taking in the peaceful scene
|
|||
|
|
141 about him. The birds began to sing again, having been startled by the
|
|||
|
|
142 flames and now calm once more. Grann walked farther along the path, until
|
|||
|
|
143 he came to a somehow familiar clearing.
|
|||
|
|
144 A circle of stones and a few old logs marked a campsite, not many
|
|||
|
|
145 days old. But the place itself brought different visions to the gnome.
|
|||
|
|
146 When he did not look directly at the camp, it felt like Innisfall. Grann
|
|||
|
|
147 put down his pack. "Well," he muttered, "is it or isn't it?"
|
|||
|
|
148 A robed figure appeared from the edge of the clearing. His face
|
|||
|
|
149 was completely concealed by the dark blue cowl. He stepped forward.
|
|||
|
|
150 "I was hoping *you* could tell me that."
|
|||
|
|
151 The gnome jumped. He hadn't sensed anyone within his range; and
|
|||
|
|
152 his range was considerable for an apprentice. "W-w-who are you?" he
|
|||
|
|
153 managed to say.
|
|||
|
|
154 The cloaked one chuckled. "Call me Morwin. I seek a place. It
|
|||
|
|
155 should be here, but it is not. Do you know of where I speak?"
|
|||
|
|
156 "Yes. Innisfall. The Inn is there." Grann wondered exactly who
|
|||
|
|
157 this Morwin person was, and how he had found his way here.
|
|||
|
|
158 "Do you know how to reach it now?"
|
|||
|
|
159 "No." Grann hesitated, but had to ask. "Do you?"
|
|||
|
|
160 Morwin chuckled again. "Not yet, gnomish friend, not yet. I have
|
|||
|
|
161 only tread the paths of the body, 'til now." He looked closely at the
|
|||
|
|
162 circle of stones that circled small pile of ashes.
|
|||
|
|
163 "I-I'm looking for a friend of mine. I think he's in trouble."
|
|||
|
|
164 Grann said, more to calm himself before the inquisitive stranger (who still
|
|||
|
|
165 was examining the stones) than for any other reason. "His name's Milchar.
|
|||
|
|
166 Do you know-"
|
|||
|
|
167 Grann found himself floating three feet from the ground, with
|
|||
|
|
168 Morwin gripping his shoulders tightly. "-him?" finished Grann.
|
|||
|
|
169 "WHAT DO YOU KNOW OF HIM, GNOME?" screamed Morwin.
|
|||
|
|
170 Grann thanked Amigc (as he had heard Milchar do) that he had been
|
|||
|
|
171 taught a displacement spell. In a blink, the gnome stood several feet
|
|||
|
|
172 away from Morwin. Two blinks later Grann's pack appeared beside him.
|
|||
|
|
173 Morwin sputtered in disbelief. Several moments passed before his
|
|||
|
|
174 temper was under control again. Much more courteously this time, he asked,
|
|||
|
|
175 "Were you his apprentice?"
|
|||
|
|
176 "Yes. How did you know him?"
|
|||
|
|
177 Morwin lifted his cowl, and allowed Grann to see his face. He
|
|||
|
|
178 looked remarkably like...
|
|||
|
|
179 Morwin laughed aloud. "Fate of birth. I am his brother."

228 the interesting ideas and concepts that people talk about here.
|

229 That is what BW is all about as far as I'm concerned. As for personal

230 attacks... just what defines a personal attack? Was Green Eyes attacking
|
|||
|
|
231 said user because of a stated dislike of the use of BW? or is it just
|

|

232 an expression of an opinion? Am I attacking you for attacking Green Eyes

233 for attacking the computer ad person? (Yuck that sounds lousy... anyway).
|

234 Is it small minded to express your opinion on a subject? Am I acting

245 "Yuck." said Zephyr "This does NOT look good."
|
|||
|
|
246 The void was no longer formless. It now had form, but not the proper
|
|||
|
|
247 kind of form. Right now it looked as though every single law of the universe
|
|||
|
|
248 the Psycho-Enhancer had taught him was a lot of bat guano. It looked like the
|
|||
|
|
249 laws he had known BEFORE the Enhancer were all a lot of bat guano.
|
|||
|
|
250 How could there be TWO INNS?
|
|||
|
|
251 Sure, everyone knew that weird things took place there, but this one was
|
|||
|
|
252 took the cake.
|
|||
|
|
253 How long had it been since Zephyr had first walked through those doors.
|
|||
|
|
254 Of course, he had been different in form then, and was not able to realize his
|
|||
|
|
255 true potential.
|
|||
|
|
256 Then he met Zeb...
|
|||
|
|
257 Perhaps, he thought, that hadn't been such a wise move.
|
|||
|
|
258 Zeb was what you'd call an intergalactic generic rebel.
|
|||
|
|
259 He also had the most annoying habit of speaking very eloquently when in
|
|||
|
|
260 dire situations. Unfortunately, the personality had overlapped upon Zephyr's
|
|||
|
|
261 when Zeb has used the Enhancer to give Zephyr human knowledge to match his
|
|||
|
|
262 human form.
|
|||
|
|
263 Zephyr also had an uncanny knack of remmbering lots of television trivia.
|
|||
|
|
264 He learned it from Zeb, and Zephyr didn't even WATCH television.
|
|||
|
|
265 He suddenly looked out at the void and realized how tired he was after
|
|||
|
|
266 examining every inch. There would be time enough for explanations as to how
|
|||
|
|
267 there could exist two Inns later. Again he looked out at the void.
|
|||
|
|
268 "I can't believe I scanned the whole thing." he groaned, and fell back
|
|||
|
|
269 into the bliss of void-sleep.

279 Hi to all: One of the things I was expressly commenting upon was the
|
|||
|
|
280 ad-proponent calling BTW a "member of the oldest profession." In case
|
|||
|
|
281 you didn't understand the implication--that means (in polite language)
|
|||
|
|
282 a prostitute. Perhaps you are right--maybe I am too touchy about
|
|||
|
|
283 seeing someone call another a prostitute. However, I am pointing out
|

284 that the name-calling did NOT originate with me.

315 twit word at people, make darn well sure you aren't open up to that particular
|

316 name yourself, oh user of UPPER CASE only. You should know better by now.
|

|
|
317 June, just ignore the mashers. They tend to lose interest after a few days.
|
|||
|
|
318 In the more sticky situations, they stay around for a few weeks. But they
|

|
|
319 always leave eventually. One can only go so far on the trit amusements of
|
|||
|
|
320 making an ass out of one's self. It gets old rather quickly.
|
|||
|
|
321
|
|||
|
|
322 As for the ad. It was quick, especially at 1200 baud. It was to the point. It
|
|||
|
|
323 is not plastered to the beginning of every disk. The questions that should be
|
|||
|
|
324 asked are "Does any retailer or wholesaler in his or her right mind think that
|
|||
|
|
325 anyone who uses backwater is going to actually spend real money on computer
|
|||
|
|
326 equipment?"
|
|||
|
|
327
|
|||
|
|
328 Or... Perhaps this is another psychological test, such as the WHO CARES and
|
|||
|
|
329 the SPELL CHECK tests, where the users of Backwater were forced to confront
|
|||
|
|
330 two potentially annoying and/or thought provoking message threads. The
|
|||
|
|
331 reactions of the users were then downloaded, categorized, and used in part
|
|||
|
|
332 of a larger study on human reaction to different stimuli. The word might
|
|||
|
|
333 have spread among Portland State University psych students. Backwater is a
|
|||
|
|
334 singular location for a good cross section of the populace (the exact
|
|||
|
|
335 determining factors escape me right now, but they are recorded). This
|
|||
|
|
336 small computer ad could be another attempt at getting sample reactions to
|
|||
|
|
337 a sudden burst of crass commericialism on an popular writers board. In a
|
|||
|
|
338 few hundred lines, there have already been several comments on just that
|
|||
|
|
339 subject. Of course the conversation has dejenerated a bit, but the causal
|
|||
|
|
340 factors are still the active ingrediant. If it is an experiement, no doubt
|
|||
|
|
341 once again Backwater has come through with outstanding data on how people
|
|||
|

342 react to things.

351 The people who look into this mad house are a normalized cross-section
|
|||
|
|
352 of society? I seriously doubt it! At least given from what I have seen.
|
|||
|
|
353 So I'm a "twit" eh? Interesting to say the least. At least I now have
|
|||
|
|
354 one person's viewpoint of what a twit is (such an elusive thing to describe!)
|
|||
|
|
355 Actually, my main point in this whole thing is that if you take such things
|
|||
|
|
356 as name calling and strongly opinionated comments by others too seriously
|
|||
|
|
357 you are going to get hurt quite often in life. No mater what you say or
|
|||
|
|
358 do, there are going to be those who dislike it. It is not a reflection on
|
|||
|
|
359 them or you, only repeated proof that people are different and have different
|
|||
|
|
360 views on the world. Differences in what they like or dislike. Some people
|
|||
|
|
361 like to be spoilers, to stir up trouble and get people excited about something.
|
|||
|
|
362 What the excigement is about seldom matters, only that they react, thus giving
|
|||
|
|
363 the spoiler a sense of control over others and thus themselves. Others are
|
|||
|
|
364 despoilers, always striving to keep things calm and quiet. This too gives them
|
|||
|
|
365 a sense of control over their enviornment. In between are those that drift
|
|||
|
|
366 with the tide, not trying to control anyone. Instead they work to adjust
|
|||
|
|
367 their own lives and views to fit what they desire. Instead of trying to
|
|||
|
|
368 force the world to be what they deem it should be, they accept the world
|
|||
|
|
369 for what it is and adjust themselves to live within those parameters.

370 None are good or bad, all are an esential part of life.

|
|||
|
|
373 Emu had waited a long time for a chance like this. What started
|
|||
|
|
374 as a child's dream was now rapidly becoming a reality. It would change his
|
|||
|
|
375 whole life: but his life, up to now, had been in anticipation of this
|
|||
|
|
376 change.
|
|||
|
|
377 Emu looked again at the letter. It was addressed to him, but the
|
|||
|
|
378 name inscribed was not 'Emu', his common name. Instead, the name inside
|
|||
|
|
379 was his true name, the name given him by Pater. As in the custom Emu
|
|||
|
|
380 learned, this usage was by only those most trusted, and only in the most
|
|||
|
|
381 formal times.
|
|||
|
|
382 This was one of those times, and Emu was elated! He would soon be
|
|||
|
|
383 there, helping push back the barriers, while learning how to define and
|
|||
|
|
384 conquer his own barriers.
|
|||
|
|
385 Images of his past mentors went through his mind's eye. There was
|
|||
|
|
386 Sommers, who taught Emu to understand what exists beond the third
|
|||
|
|
387 dimension; Jan Reed, who gave enlightenment towards infinity; Cadams, who
|
|||
|
|
388 showed that there's more than one way to skin a cockroach; and CBaogh, who
|
|||
|
|
389 taught enthusiasm and drive. Later mentors, fine tuning Emu's intellect,
|
|||
|
|
390 were Tristan, bringing magic; Karen, bringing semantics.
|
|||
|
|
391 And Pieter.
|
|||
|
|
392 Emu chuckled at the image that Pieter had become. Pieter had been
|
|||
|
|
393 an 'insurmountable' barrier, deemed impossible by many others. Emu had
|
|||
|
|
394 even conquered Pieter. At one time Pieter had represented the biggest
|
|||
|
|
395 barrier for Emu. Now, a symbol for future 'insurmontable' barriers.
|
|||
|
|
396 Biggest of all of the images in Emu's mind, was that of Pater.
|
|||
|
|
397 Always there, always helping. Pater introduced Emu to machines, and Paer
|
|||
|
|
398 taught Emu to be human.
|
|||
|
|
399 They all worked together to help shape, guide, and groom Emu, and
|
|||
|
|
400 now Emu had that chance.
|
|||
|
|
401 Emu has been accepted as an apprentice to The Cube.

452 The land in which Gary Nadey found himself was in no way like the
|
|||
|
|
453 California suburb he had departed from. Small animals scurried away from
|
|||
|
|
454 Nadey, startled by his odd arrival. A fresh summer breeze stirred the
|
|||
|
|
455 long green stalks of the plants, which rustled fainly. Colorful birds of
|
|||
|
|
456 every description flitted quickly through the clearing, which was bounded
|
|||
|
|
457 mainly by the small white flower of the Dogwood tree. The scene was that
|
|||
|
|
458 of a peaceful forest- except for one very odd detail. The sky was blue.
|
|||
|
|
459 That, in itself, should not be surprising. However, the shade of
|
|||
|
|
460 azure Nadey gazed at for some minutes was a deep blue, much darker than
|
|||
|
|
461 the lighter shade he had seen all of his life. Gary's adventures began
|
|||
|
|
462 with this small hint that all was not as it should be.
|
|||
|
|
463 A mistake in handling the controls of the FEGS was to be expected,
|
|||
|
|
464 considering the terribly complex functions it could perform.
|
|||
|
|
465 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%
|
|||
|
|
466 The FEGS: Force and Energy Guidance System. Intermediate vector
|
|||
|
|
467 bosons directed in a precise manner produced a secondary field effect that,
|
|||
|
|
468 put simply, could direct energy. Boson physics was then an obscure yet new
|
|||
|
|
469 branch of science, regarded by most scientists of the time as an intellectual
|
|||
|
|
470 curiosity of no practical value whatsoever.
|
|||
|
|
471 It was very near the end of a 19-hour long lab session at the
|
|||
|
|
472 University when Gary stumbled upon the effect. He had been experimenting
|
|||
|
|
473 with a boson field's effect on light rays, with little success. As Gary
|
|||
|
|
474 was making an ajustment on his boson generator, he recieved a call from
|
|||
|
|
475 one of his students. While he talked, absent-mindedly fiddled with the
|
|||
|
|
476 generator controls, then stopped. After the call, Nadey forgot what he had
|
|||
|
|
477 been doing, and left the generator at the new setting.
|
|||
|
|
478 When Gary next activated his apparatus, the entirety of the Science
|
|||
|
|
479 Complex plunged into blackness. A crackle of electricity in the room
|
|||
|
|
480 alerted him to a possible malfunction, and he immediately shut down his
|
|||
|
|
481 experiment. Suddenly, the Complex was again alight. To his suprise, he
|
|||
|
|
482 found a tremendous charred area on a countertop over twelve feet away from
|
|||
|
|
483 his experiment.
|
|||
|
|
484 At first, Nadey did not realize what he had accomplished. Several
|
|||
|
|
485 days of calculations provided him with a theory. He was able to easily
|
|||
|
|
486 repeat the results, causing puzzlement among the remainder of the Science
|
|||
|
|
487 staff when they found themselves unable to see a thing in a brightly lit
|
|||
|
|
488 building. Finally he discovered he had redirected all of the light within
|
|||
|
|
489 the building onto that counter, along with some other forms of energy that
|
|||
|
|
490 happened to be captured by the effect.
|
|||
|
|
491 Several of the other scholars were by then engaged in an informal
|
|||
|
|
492 search, seeking out the cause of the phenomena that frankly had them
|
|||
|
|
493 stumped. Not one could guess at the cause. Nadey continued to experiment
|
|||
|
|
494 all the while, finally finishing the device in time to avoid the prying
|
|||
|
|
495 questions of his collegues.
|
|||
|
|
496 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%
|
|||
|
|
497 Nadey tore his eyes away from the sky, and looked about him. A
|
|||
|
|
498 narrow path, unnoticed before, became faintly discernable. A moment
|
|||
|
|
499 later, Gary began to hike in the direction he believed was best.

524 The following seems vaguely familiar. If it was posted here before, I apologize
|
|||
|
|
525 to the previous plagiarizer.
|
|||
|
|
526
|
|||
|
|
527 Oh, my Daddy was a wand'rin' spaceman,
|
|||
|
|
528 He found Mamma lurking in some sea,
|
|||
|
|
529 Oh, they never had attractive children
|
|||
|
|
530 --if you don't believe it, look at me!
|
|||
|
|
531
|
|||
|
|
532 Now every night Mom slept with Poppa,
|
|||
|
|
533 They were happy as could be,
|
|||
|
|
534 Then, of course, I came along to join them
|
|||
|
|
535 --and they were glad to make it three!
|
|||
|
|
536
|
|||
|
|
537 Well, my sister was a fancy woman,
|
|||
|
|
538 At that price you couldn't help but see
|
|||
|
|
539 That the fanciness was only greasepaint
|
|||
|
|
540 --but she never ever did charge me!
|
|||
|
|
541
|
|||
|
|
542 And my brother was a different fellow,
|
|||
|
|
543 He was different as different could be.
|
|||
|
|
544 He never ever slept with girls
|
|||
|
|
545@
|
|||
|
|
546 --'cause he preferred to sleep with me!
|
|||
|
|
547
|
|||
|
|
548 Now, we had a tricky robot butler,
|
|||
|
|
549 He could do things that were ecstasy,
|
|||
|
|
550 I am speaking to you from experience
|
|||
|
|
551 --either AC current or DC!
|
|||
|
|
552
|
|||
|
|
553 Well, the family pet was no slouch either,
|
|||
|
|
554 A forty-foot reptile was she,
|
|||
|
|
555 And when it came to fancy footwork
|
|||
|
|
556 --she almost was as good as me!
|
|||
|
|
557
|
|||
|
|
558 But an awful thing happened last yesterday,
|
|||
|
|
559 At the family reunion we agreed
|

|
|
560 To see how many ways we could do it
|

|
|
594 To the person who left the nice comment many 100's of lines ago about the
|
|||
|
|
595 Jansen story: Thank you very much! I might add, that my story had nothing to
|
|||
|
|
596 do with the advertisment preceding it. I want to stay out of the whole "pen-
|
|||
|
|
597 wars" thing entirely. I don't care what gets posted here as long as there is
|
|||
|
|
598 room for everybody to have her (or his) say.
|
|||
|
|
599
|
|||
|
|
600 The stinging sensation was beginning to dull a little, but the sick feeling
|
|||
|
|
601 in my stomach was intensifying. He had me where he wanted me, and we both
|
|||
|
|
602 knew it. I could either accept his offer and condemn my crew to death, or get
|
|||
|
|
603 myself and my crew killed. His next statement brought me out of my inner
|
|||
|
|
604 struggle.
|
|||
|
|
605 "Thorndrake, Hobbs; take Miss Jansen to the 'guest suite'. Then finish off the
|
|||
|
|
606 crew."
|
|||
|
|
607 There was no time to think or to lose. I lunged for Hardy and hit him with th
|
|||
|
|
608 top of my head, right in the nose. I felt a sharp pain at the top of my skull
|
|||
|
|
609 but was even more suprised by what happened next. I felt his grip loosen and
|
|||
|
|
610 then felt his hands slip off my arms. I looked up and saw blood on his face
|
|||
|
|
611 and a dull look in his eyes. The weight of his dead body crashed on top of me
|
|||
|
|
612 before I could get out of the way. The gaurds rushed up and pulled him off me.
|
|||
|
|
613 "He's dead," said Thorndrake.
|
|||
|
|
614 "What do we do now?" mumbled Hobbs, with a note of anxiety in his voice.

693 XLISP Program Plays Risk
|
|||
|
|
694
|
|||
|
|
695 Because of it's complexity, the Parker Bothers board game Risk offers a good
|
|||
|
|
696 model for AI planning systems. Scott Welser, an engineer at KnowledgeWare
|
|||
|
|
697 (Ann Arbor, MI), is designing a plan-generation program to play Risk.
|
|||
|
|
698 The game is based on a model of world conquest. Players take turns trying
|
|||
|
|
699 to conquer countries and attempting to occupy whole continents. The outcome of
|
|||
|
|
700 each assault is decided by rolling dice.
|
|||
|
|
701 Wesler's program, called Alex, was written in XLISP. (XLISP, by the way,
|
|||
|
|
702 is a low-cost implementation of LISP written by BIX's own programmer-in-
|
|||
|
|
703 rsidence, David Betz.) In its current form, Alex runs on an IBM PC.
|
|||
|
|
704 Because of the large number of possible moves in Risk, and the random
|
|||
|
|
705 nature introduced by the dice, a common search tree of all possible moves and
|
|||
|
|
706 countermoves would be impossible to build. As an alternative, Alex uses a
|
|||
|
|
707 planning system. In this system, the goal of winning the game is divided into a
|
|||
|
|
708 series of tasks, which are subdivided in turn into a series of subtasks. At
|
|||
|
|
709 ehturn in the game, Alex's Task Noticer filters out those tasks that are not
|
|||
|
|
710 possible to accomplish and ranks the desirability of those that are. Alex then
|
|||
|
|
711 executes the most desirable of the possible task plans.
|
|||
|
|
712 Although the program cannot yet play a full game, it can plan and execute
|
|||
|
|
713 the beginning moves. Wesler said it will be a relatively easy task to add a
|
|||
|
|
714 number of tasks for finishing the game.
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
718 Grann was stunned by this news. Milchar had never mentioned any
|
|||
|
|
719 relatives, most certainly not any brothers. Pondering upon it now, Grann
|
|||
|
|
720 could not recall Milchar ever commenting about his past, except now and
|
|||
|
|
721 then recalling an adventure shared by The Doctor.
|
|||
|
|
722 Morwin sat down upon a log, and motioned Grann to do the same.
|
|||
|
|
723 "I apologize for my rudeness...but plead extenuating circumstances. Perhaps
|
|||
|
|
724 things would be clearer for you if I outlined why I am here."
|
|||
|
|
725 Grann nodded, and sat down. "I think so, too. I am named Grann.
|
|||
|
|
726 Why did Milchar never speak of you?"
|
|||
|
|
727 "I believe he was somewhat ashamed of us. He never accepted his
|
|||
|
|
728 heritage, or his family. He tried to work for what he felt were the Good
|
|||
|
|
729 forces in the universe... I believe he thought that he must balance the
|
|||
|
|
730 evil that the rest of the family did."
|
|||
|
|
731 Grann hardly knew what to think of this, so kept his face blank as
|
|||
|
|
732 he said, "Go on."
|
|||
|
|
733 "Since you do not know of our family, let me tell you of us. You
|
|||
|
|
734 feel you know Milchar, but did you know he is not really human? None of
|
|||
|
|
735 us are. His father was Jarin Corey, a great-great grandson of the famous
|
|||
|
|
736 Corwin. Blood from that line contains power.
|
|||
|
|
737 "My own father was human, in a dimension far from this. He is
|
|||
|
|
738 not important, except that I inherited my human form from him. I am the
|
|||
|
|
739 neutral child, seeking my own gain.
|
|||
|
|
740 "Cynthia is our sister. Her father was a demon from some hell
|
|||
|
|
741 best left forgotten, except by my mother. She does the evil that my
|
|||
|
|
742 brother tries to balance.
|
|||
|
|
743 "Our mother. None of us know her origins. We have seen some of
|
|||
|
|
744 her souvenirs. If they are to be believed, she is at least 5000 years old.
|
|||
|
|
745 She is not extremely...fertile. Therefore she is most protective of the
|
|||
|
|
746 children she has, including Milchar, who she has not been able to contact
|
|||
|
|
747 for several Tuhngaol.
|
|||
|
|
748 "My mission here is simple, now that you know all of this." Morwin
|
|||
|
|
749 paused. "Mother wants me to find him."
|
|||
|
|
750 "And you, with powers beyond human knowing, cannot find him?"
|
|||
|
|
751 Morwin nodded. "Milchar excelled in Travelraft. I did not.
|
|||
|
|
752 Illusion and Summon magicks are mine to command, but the planes themselves
|
|||
|
|
753 heed me but little."
|
|||
|
|
754 "Can't you summon Milchar?" asked the gnome, unsure of the
|
|||
|
|
755 possiblities of Summoncraft.
|
|||
|
|
756 "I cannot. He seems to be beyond my reach, somehow..." Morwin
|
|||
|
|
757 trailed off. "He may be dead."
