21 Do I believe this? Do my roving orbs decieve me? Am I at the top? I come backafter a long hiatus (after a time on
|
||
22 this board in which, it must be noted, Inever made it to the upper eschelons of glory) and I find this board strangely
|
||
23 less busy than I left it. What's the deal? Have I just struck upon a good time of the day to call? Or has there
|
||
24 been some monumental schism that I am not aware of? ( besides the Destroyer...ah.. incident)
|
||
25
|
||
26 Back to the book of the Pariana Riva. The number four holds great significance in the land of Illyria. There are four seasons,
|
||
27 each boasting it's own seasonal animal. These animals are the Dragon of Summer, the Phoenix of Spring, The Unicorn of winter,
|
||
28 and the Gryphon of fall. Each of these hold almost messianic status in the Illyrian Religion. In the ruling body, as well
|
||
29 as the theocracy, there are paralells. THere are four seats of power, each corresponding to one of the four elements and held
|
||
30 by a practicer of the four basic arts.
|
||
31 ( Elements: earth, wind, fire, water... Arts: priest, sorceror, warrior, mariner.)
|
||
32 The Book of the Pariana Riva states thatthe two most popular thrones are the earthen throne, and the Merlaor (undersea)
|
||
33 throne. This is because these are the only two elected trhones. The other two, the thrones of Fire and Wind, are eitherempty
|
||
34 (as in the case of the throne of Fire) or unconcerned with governing (as with the sorceror that holds the Northern throne of
|
||
35 the winds.) There are many more parralells that can be drawn, but for now they would be too tedious to write., as well asread.
|
||
36 More later.
|
||
37 To the author of the Book of Souls.. Is it a real book, or are you writing itout of your own fertile little 'maginings
|
||
38 Yours, riding on the winds of spring....

|

42 Rivania: It was nice of you to attempt to save lines, but next time use
|
||
43 MA 120. As it stands most of your lines are 127 (128?) characters long.
|
||
44 This means that (due to a bug) the FI & FA commands will "find" those
|
||
45 lines (ie a 128 char line is an automatic match).

49 From Prometheus; Aside the warm light of a soft lamp
|
||
50 The electrical circuits in my room decided to take a shower. In their own
|
||
51 sparks, but a shower. There were a few fires in the wiring and the insulated
|
||
52 aluminum wiring is in it's last days. Emergency wiring was installed until the
|
||
53 old stuff is ripped away. Leaving me with a five inch teleivision, and a fine
|
||
54 lamp, on the floor. The effect of this on my monitor is pleasant, and I felt
|
||
55 the urge to do something under the light.
|
||
56 Hence, this entry.
|
||
57 Assorted messages follow.
|

58 Guardian; I wish you had never disclosed the secret of the numbers. Now
|
||
59 they are visible every sixty lines, or so. Do us a favor, and never reveal any
|
||
60 other notation systems. Until then, sd8503.22 mt1824.43, heh, heh.
|
||
61 Man in Gray; Dad let me drive to Colorado. The roads are a lot different
|
||
62 when I drive, they were easier when someone else was driving. Once I got to
|
||
63 the promontory the observatory is on, it looked worse too. Those people left a
|
||
64 few crates of ammunitions in the corrugated tin walls. The main lens had razor
|
||
65 scratches on it, and there are at least fifteen pounds of sugar in the kitchens
|
||
66 that weren't there a year ago.
|
||
67 The spent shell casings fit ingrams.
|
||
68 I think we might be in a little trouble. Renting it out was incredibly
|
||
69 stupid. I might be able to blame it on hunters, and stray chefs, but no one
|
||
70 is going to believe me.

172 #########################################################################
|
||
173 It seemed like an eternity being stuck in the statis field. I had no
|
||
174 real idea what was going on, or even what this was all about. It was
|
||
175 all so frightening. The voice in my head was of no help. It was almost
|
||
176 smug in it's knowledge of things. I wish I was back in my safe and
|
||
177 secure Inn. I wasn't cut out for all this adventuring stuff.
|
||
178 The Inn! WHo was watching the Inn? What was happening to it? Why anything
|
||
179 could happen. It could be burned down or overrun while I'm stuck here.
|
||
180 I hope it is alright.
|
||
181 My little voice had been quiet for sometime. since it tried to do what
|
||
182 ever it had tried to do before the restraining system had taken hold
|
||
183 it had not said a word. I didn't know if it was biding its time or
|
||
184 planing some devious plot. -Say something- #Something# -Well, at least
|
||
185 I know you're still there. What have you gotten me into though?-
|
||
186 #I haven't gotten you into anything. This primitive contraption has
|
||
187 gone into an overload condition from too many entities occupying it
|
||
188 at the sametime. When the space/time dialation field generator started
|
||
189 to fail the autoreturn mechanism took effect and is attempting to now
|
||
190 return the vehice to its original source.# -Huh?- #It's heading for the
|
||
191 repair shop.# -Oh, why didn't you say that in the first place?-
|
||
192 #Sigh... never mind... If we're lucky it will make it before the whole
|
||
193 thing colapses in a pile of molten metal and plastic.# -And if we aren't
|
||
194 lucky?- Then the power generator will fail, and the containment field
|
||
195 around the blackhole that powers this thing will disappear, and we'll
|
||
196 all be sucked into it crushing us into nothing.# -Oh... I hope that
|
||
197 doesn't happen, I've got to get back to the Inn.- #Sigh, I don't know
|
||
198 which is less intellegent, you or that slime slug I was stuck with
|
||
199 last time.#
|
||
200 The air around me started to shift more quickly traveling the whole
|
||
201 spectrum of the visible colors and beyond. Getting brighter and brighter
|
||
202 as they shifted. the throbing noise was getting louder too, as was
|
||
203 the smell of burnt something or other. Just when I thought it was going
|
||
204 to go on forever, there was a loud thump, and the vehicle came to a
|
||
205 shuddering stop vibrating everything despite the statis field that was
|
||
206 still in effect. The compartment deformed and canted to one side from
|
||
207 the force of the landing. Moments later the force of the landing apparently
|
||
208 caused irreperable damage to the controls, because the statis field
|
||
209 suddenly let go in the midst of an explosion from the control panel
|
||
210 that showered everyone in the area with sparks and bits of burning
|
||
211 whatever it was that made up the equipment. Having been in a bit of an
|
||
212 awkward position before the statis field took effect, I fell flat on my
|
||
213 face when it let loose. "Well," Bard said, "We're home...I think..."

376 My mind was numb, even after the stasis field switched off (or became
|
||
377 inoperable?). One thing I never did understand- if the entire craft was
|
||
378 placed in a a stasis field, including the stasis device itself- why didn't the
|
||
379 craft and all its contents remain in stasis forever? Never mind, don't explain
|
||
380 it to me.
|
||
381 Small bits of flaming debris rained down on us. A few began to burn into my
|
||
382 robe, as if that mattered anymore; it already had several serious char marks.
|
||
383 A quick survey of the cabin- no one seriously hurt, hard to tell in the case
|
||
384 of the alien, though. I helped the Innkeeper to his feet, he having fallen
|
||
385 to the deck of the craft.
|
||
386 My strength was still not much to work with, but the sleep had helped. I made
|
||
387 a tremendous effort to remain upright, the Innkeeper now aiding me. "Anyone
|
||
388 know where we are?"
|
||
389 A rap-tap-tapping on the craft's outer door silenced me. I tried to smile.
|
||
390 "Well, who could *THAT* be at this hour? Bard, are you expecting company?
|
||
391 If I'd known this was going to be a social fgathering," I gestured toward my
|
||
392 tattered robes, "I would have worn my Sunday best."

404 The piper brushed the sparks off his faded kilt. The chlorine atmosphere
|
||
405 had faded the tartan so that the sett was almost invisible where folds had
|
||
406 not protected the cloth. Carefully, bleach wasn'
|
||
407 (oops, wasn' --> wasn't) very selective, it tended to attack the cloth as
|
||
408 well as the dye. He licked his thumb and applied the moisture to a persis-
|
||
409 tent spark that seemed intent on igniting the whole of his tattered clothing
|
||
410 and began to look around.
|
||
411 Most of the company seemed to be in good shape, the innkeeper nursing a
|
||
412 bruised nose from a fall, Milchar helping him stem the pain. The field
|
||
413 within the craft seemed to have prevented injuries within. Unfortunately,
|
||
414 the same could not be said of the bard's vehicle. The piper hoped that
|
||
415 the bard had propiated the appropriate gods with sufficient gold (they had
|
||
416 just rased the required sacrifice rate or "premium") to enable him to get
|
||
417 the vehicle repaired.
|
||
418 With the rest, the piper turned to look at the door as it reverberated
|
||
419 to the sudden pounding.

425 A needed recap
|
||
426 :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
|
||
427 The Former stood on the white floor. It had been a few days ago that the
|
||
428 metamorphism left him in this state. Dealing for a transporting device, it had
|
||
429 led him to this spot. A faulty transporter had nabbed the Innkeeper and taken
|
||
430 him to a place on this planet. Probably nearby.
|
||
431 The device told him this was the site of the faulty transporter, and so he
|
||
432 arrived to investigate. It appeared to be a home, an alien, strange home, but
|
||
433 a home none-the-less. It seemed calculated for a six-handed alien, who could
|
||
434 breath the planet's atmosphere; chlorine.
|
||
435 The alien also experimented with transporters. The faulty transporter was
|
||
436 probably an experiment gone wrong. Now it had to work though. For as the
|
||
437 Former stood in this alien mushroom of a home, the Innkeeper and all the rest
|
||
438 were at the mercy of the Bard's stasis field.
|
||
439 :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
|
||
440 The Former let the panels operate themselves. Light blinked in random
|
||
441 patterns. Dials turned of their own accord. Slides tugged this way and that.
|
||
442 Phantoms of the Innkeeper and the rest faded in and out. A whistle rose in
|
||
443 pitch until it all stopped.
|
||
444 The Bard's vehicle was solid. The phantoms were now solid, behind the
|
||
445 metallic walls of the vehicle. The stasis field must have been shattered in
|
||
446 the transport. Everything was solid, and in motion.
|
||
447 Leaving the panel to stand itself down, the Former walked up to the vehicle
|
||
448 and pounded on it. No hatches or doors were visible. No way to tell if the
|
||
449 party inside was safe or dead. No way t5o relieve the tension of the moment.
|
||
450 Not until a stunned face popped out of the vehicle.
|
||
451 "Hello?"

|

460 To Prince Dragon:
|
||
461
|
||
462 Obviously you have not met my little buddy Sparky. He is what you might call
|
||
463 "Creme De La Dragon". But I will agree with you on one point.. Dragons will
|
||
464 not tolerate cohabitation with semi- mortals ON EARTH. In the cosmic void,
|
||
465 they can be quite loveable.
|
||
466 Of course, It is a bit of a trial, I mean, Sparky devoted to the destruction
|
||
467 of the universe and me dedicated to eternal good, but once we cross that
|
||
468 doorstep, our careers are forgotten. Youmight say that the time we spend
|
||
469 together is "quality" time. It is not often that you find a Dragon that
|
||
470 doesn't try to tie you to home and family.
|
||
471 He also likes to fetch the
|
||
472 Oregonian for me. In the RAIN yet!!
|
||
473
|
||
474 Give him a call! I'm sure that you could find lots to talk about. Right
|
||
475 now he is researching for his Doctoral thesis on the subject of " Princesses
|
||
476 in the Modern world; a Guide to good eats."
|
||
477
|
||
478 To the Author of the Book of Souls..
|
||
479
|
||
480 I would fain warn you not to give away too many of the Golden secrets.
|
||
481 Things have a way of balancing out, and the power you allow others to posses is
|
||
482 the power that you lose.
|
||

490 minute you were on the modem? Local phone companies across the state are

492 organizations and people angry at enormous phone rate increases have already

493 collected over half the signatures necessary to stop Mandatory Measured Service

494 in Oregon. Help collect signatures to save telecommunicating;call OSPIRG at

500 lurking today...Guardian, I got your message from nerd. Thanks!
|
||
501 ....................................Entropy.................
|
||
502 BEWARE! The truth about the Book of Souls has been revealed. The author is
|
||
503 plagerizing from another well-known book on the subject. He or she is changing
|
||
504 a few of the words but it is definitely taken from the source I found. This
|
||
505 presents two problems. First off, the person entering these messages does not
|
||
506 give proper credit to the real authors and their publisher. Secondly, the
|
||
507 person entering these messages is taking credit for their creation him or her
|
||
508 self. This is not the sort of thing telecommunications users need to have
|
||
509 tarnishing their image. People who steal ideas and take credit themselves are
|
||
510 a scurge on the good name of modemers everywhere and all steps should be taken
|
||
511 to eliminate the problem. I would be glad to share the title of the book and
|
||
512 where I found it if anyone is interested. Let us hope this so called author
|
||
513 sees the error of his or her ways and apologizes for the plagerism and promises
|
||
514 never to do so again.

|

560 "Keeper": I hope you exercise more care in your rituals than you do in your
|

561 entries here. If you made half as many mistakes in spelling alone, as you
|
||
562 do here, you'd be in big trouble. Anyone who has even *begun* to study the
|
||
563 arts knows that there is no such thing as a "minor" detail, or a "trivial"
|
||
564 error.
|
||
565 ..............................the apprentice...............................
|
||
566 Bard lay where the impact had thrown him. He cautiously gave the
|
||
567 barest twitch to each muscle. When only minor twinges resulted, he decided
|
||
568 that he was relatively intact.
|
||
569 He arose and took a quick look around the conveyor. The automatics
|
||
570 seemed to have taken care of the worst of the damage, so only minor fires
|
||
571 had resulted. The full extent of the damage (both to the vehicle and and
|
||
572 to his finances) was just beginning to register as a punding noise drew
|
||
573 his attention.
|
||
574 He climbed over to the hatch and was about to open it when he realized
|
||
575 that he had no guarantee that the guages next to it were registering
|
||
576 properly. He couldn't be sure *what* was out there. Steeling himself for
|
||
577 anything, he opend a small panel and cracked open a valve behind it.
|
||
578 Well, the pressure was a close match, no major hissing. He gave a
|
||
579 cautious sniff. Seemed ok... well...
|
||
580 He opened the hatch and stuck his head out.
|
||
581 "Hello?"

608 He couldn't do it. Cragmore strained every fiber of his psionic ability
|
||
609 but it was no use. The alien either wouldn't respond, or it couldn't respond.
|
||
610 Unfortunately, the inability of Cragmore to reach the alien did not mean an
|
||
611 end to the screeching he felt in his head, a psychic noise akin to pure
|
||
612 unadulterated torture.
|
||
613 Slowly, his body came out of its self-imposed physical freeze, and his
|
||
614 mind did what it could to thaw the limbs that had been dead to the world
|
||
615 for the past few minutes. Pain. As his senses began to register the
|
||
616 surroundings, nerves started carrying the after-effects of a body that had
|
||
617 been tossed like chaff to the brain. Cragmore winced, concentrated, and the
|
||
618 pain subsided, a bit.
|
||
619 Opened eyes revealed a small disaster scene. Bard's ship was a mess,
|
||
620 more than the usual dirty walls and unclean specimen bags. The inside of
|
||
621 the ship was torn apart. Milchar, Innkeeper, Bard, Piper, and the hideous
|
||
622 looking alien stood around, surveying the damage themselves, and doing what
|
||
623 clean-up seemed appropriate.
|
||
624 Sound came rushing back, and Cragmore could hear the words 'landed'
|
||
625 and 'stasis' and 'my ship!' then a loud pounding, from somewhere outside.
