Journal Entry 2022-08-16
Just a day full of ‘sad’ today. Had one of my infamous weird dreams, and I don’t feel up to adding it to the Scratchpad. If it comes up again, I’ll add it then. I wrote a chapter of Second Life during lunch and edited it during dinner. It’s published here on the site and

19 Keeping a Secret
“Let’s get out of here; adventurers are starting to gather for the nightly raids,” said Grumpy while pointing out some people coming down the main path from the gate. They were quite a ways out. “I agree. In fact, why don’t we head to the road? I’ll offer them my shovel, letting them know we

18 Power Looting
When I look around, I see Grumpy looking at me. He shakes his head, “I don’t want to know.” Laughing at him, “Oh yes, yes you do, but it can wait. Have you picked from the vault?” “No,” he replies. “That’s fine. Take your time. I want to spend an hour here, then have a

17 Shaken, not Stirred
After Gilden and Grumpy remove the locks and lift the gravestone out of the recess, Mason and I look in it. “This one is different – there is a palm reader here.” Kneeling, I place my palm on the reader, and a mechanical voice sounds out. “Your party is the first to access the James

16 The Graveyard
After we pass through the foot gate, Grumpy takes us to the left, where there’s a path along the foot of the wall that we follow. The walls and crenellations are high enough that we can’t see the guards stationed there. The forest has also been pushed back, leaving an open field of about five

This ^ is what it should look like!
Look, it’s in the name – Table-Side Guacamole – you make it table-side. This way the customer can see that your ingredients are fresh, can pick and chose what they want in it, and are 100% certain you aren’t loading it up with old stuff that’s started changing color! Those things in the previous sentence

Well, due to SNAFU we’re starting the blog site over from scratch. Expect to see content and posts start to show up now that it’s back online. I’ll also work on making it pretty as time goes by. We need some content, so I’ll copy some content over from RoyalRoad, and I’ve some old things

Things about dwarves I didn’t want to know, but Grunge told me anyway.
You want to know about dwarves? You are an idiot. Nobody really wants to know the truth. They’re all sorry afterward. Fine, stop pestering me. This is going to make you glad you’re a halfling. The ‘gonads’ of a male dwarf detach from him when he reaches sexual maturity. They are referred to as (Dwarven)

15 The Good With The Bad
We’ve just come up on a large square, offset so that the road that passes through the gate is on the left side of the courtyard as you face the gate from inside Horn Point. This arrangement is so that the traffic coming into the city can be shunted off for inspection while traffic leaving

14 The First Step
“Follow me,” shouted Grumpy! And he ran into an alleyway. We’re on a minor street with crafter shops after a few twists and a squeeze between some crates. Many of the doorways have people standing nearby, smiling and catching skittles as they fall out of the air. Gilden says, “Put your cloaks on while we
