Alasse Re'Uth

May you not be downriver of the hog farms this time. It is amazing how severe weather forecasts increase in personal priority when highly respected friends are involved, even though they are hundreds of miles away. (Geez, gal .... say it in English this time!) OK. Many of us Texans know there's a hurricane nippin' at the heels of the East Coast. Looks like a big one --- we respect BIG, ya know. But now, I'm going to worry. Because some really decent folks that I've come to know and like could be affected in a bad way. (And the price of bacon could skyrocket!) I shall keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I'm sure our Father will recognize the avatar names. Best Wishes, Alasse Re'Uth

Hail, Sosarian! Though I am relatively new to this guild of HONOR, I believe I can be of some initial assistance to you. Matters such as you describe are dealt with by our Senator of War, if the HONOR member is assigned to our Legion. If not, our Head of State deals with such issues which are normally referred to him by our Prefectures. The times are such that our Senator of War is the individual most frequently seen among us. I believe the Head of State is currently occupied with crucial matters elsewhere. I dinna wish to inquire as to the details of your encounter with the HONOR member, but if you will direct a pigeon to Roost #42755612, including your return roost address, I will make sure our Senator of War is informed of your desire to speak with him. You are to be commended for the manner in which you have approached us. Kind regards, Alasse Re'Uth HONOR Squire

Look forward to meeting you, Johnny! Erm .... d'ya have any shots of your helmet?

Hail, Squire Tasslehoff! Unfortunately, I shall be toiling away at my gainful employment during the time of your adventure tomorrow. I do look forward to Saturday's gathering. If there is anything I can do during the week to help with the preparations, please let me know. (ICQ 42755612) Strength and HONOR!

Alasse/Kaatya can be available almost any weeknight after 8:00 Central time; usually all day Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. As was stated earlier, it would be most helpful to have an estimate of the length of time required to complete the quest so that I can coordinate it with RL family matters. I would assume the duration is dependent upon the skills, savvy, and determination of the squires. And with this collection of talent, we should do exceedingly well! Strength and HONOR!

Alasse approaches Olympus at a breakneck pace. Her greeting to Tod is muffled by the swiftly closing outer door. Her hurried steps cover every room of the bottom floor. Not finding whom she seeks, she takes the stairs two at a time. Happy anticipation turns to disappointment as again her search bears no fruit. Out of breath, she pauses while descending the stairs and takes a moment to think. "How do I get word to him?" The sentry's pointed cough disturbs her reverie and an idea forms. Hastily penning a note in her best hand, she again approaches Tod and puts the parchment in his hand. "Should you see the Emperor, kindly deliver this to him on my behalf." The exchange is fumbled; the paper falls to the floor and Tod is able to read: Joyous news, Lord Logan! I have this morning traversed the western regions of Sosaria, hoping to be of assistance in your quest. The townspeople could not be bothered to help. The Healers, too dedicated to leave their posts. But I did not lose heart, I persevered. I happened upon a humble dwelling situated near an encampment of undead. An agreement was negotiated with its sole inhabitant; and after my personal delivery of a mere five cauldrons, Grizelda the Hag has agreed to be your date for the upcoming festivities! Strength and HONOR! Alasse Re'Uth Alasse bids Tod farewell and puzzles over the expression on his face as she heads for home.
