These beings decided to wait with purchasing it till after their birthday.


Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.

As mentioned previously, I did lend my copy of A Fantasy Medley to a member of Robin's Newsgroup last year so am happy to now lend my copy of AWPatPP to any 'regular' thePlenty member who has been unable to make the purchase for whatever reason. If not now, then later. Smiling
Just read this properly!

I now have a very funny picture of a squeaking joost in my head. P

How would you go about doing this? Big Grin

I finished it. Not very impressed to be honest. It's a story that went into one eye and out of the other. Probably my least favourite 6D story so far.

Happy to mail it to you, Valarya. PM me a postal address and it's yours to loan. Smiling

Very quick visit. Am sure I'll have many more to add when time allows. Some bits I enjoyed:

[+]Spoiler

* Felicity's mention that wise men would likely find the scroll/s x or xx or xxx years hence and my knowing that Skilled Ones were dubbed "wise men" in such places as the old tale/poem which began 'Six Wisemen came to Jhaampe-town'.

* The mention of Lostler not only being Witted but also having come from Chalced, just as Burrich was and did...though both were not 'of Chalced' originally.

* That Charger was bonded with a raven, Kennit's sigil.

* I'm not going to specifically mention it here, even under a spoiler tag, until many more of us have read it but obviously I enjoyed the confirmation or answering of a question about something we've discussed elsewhere here regarding the Wit. Big Grin

* That, though he was Witted, Charger was not overly strong in the Skill despite the fact that Skilled Ones were well trained in those times and obviously even bastards were welcomed to such training...far different to the time Chade and Fitz found themselves in.
Sorry!!!

Crikey I hope nobody in the world was just in this thread...I'd ended it with /quote rather than /spoiler and thus the spoilers were open to all who entered! Crying

My apologies if you stumbled in in the seconds prior to my realising my mistake!

Surrender

Afterthought: anyone wishing to revisit the mention of the Willful Princess and the Piebald Prince's tale in Royal Assassin can find it in Chapter Thirty-One ' Torture'. Smiling

That is a wonderfully sweet gesture, and if you lived closer I'd take you up on it.. but it'd probably cost the same to post something to Australia than to just support Robin and buy my own copy. Smiling Thank you, though!!
