Sorry about the delay, I completely forgot that the server ate my post.

It's like a magical pony express. In that it's magic and acts like the Pony Express, not that it's a message system using magic ponies.

I like the idea. However, the post office shouldn't extend far beyond Saalarann's domain. It would be impractical for them to have an office in Aquacor (Aqua changes the skyline like a socialite changes clothes), and Dekon and Obsid have their own ways to get information from place to place.

Wind is loosely translated as "habb", reader as "alqar'e". On another note, I was thinking of what the name for the Teleport express could be, and I thought, "why not "wind-riders"?" Thus, the word for "rider" in arabic is "alerakeb."

In my posts, smilies generally correspond to my expression at the time. As an example,

means "huh?" and "Hmm..". Also, "Landis" is fine.
