    Miyuki looks at the fire, somewhat entranced by it, shaking her head she continues,
    "This house seems fairly isolated and the flames are unlikely to spread, perhaps we should try to find the others or press onwards.

    Was trying to post this yesterday, but the site was being difficult :P

    Sorry for the pause, folks.

    Some of you may know this, some may not: my mom has terminal lung cancer (diagnosed in April). She had a small stroke about 6 weeks ago. She went to the hospital Tuesday night and was admitted because she wasn't feeling "right".

    My wife and I came down that night and the docs did all their tests over the past two days, and determiend that sometime between Sunday-Tuesday she has had 3 or 4 more strokes all across her brain.

    She's doing a bit better than she was on Tuesday, but she's not going to recover 100% (even if she had more than the 6-12 months that they feel she has left).

    This was my first chance to get close to a computer, and not sure when my next will be (maybe tomorrow, if we go home tonight---we're about 2 hours from home).

    Thanks for your understanding!

    I echo Sxoa's sentiments.
    Take whatever time you need.

    Aye.

    Much as I enjoy the game, some things take precedence.
    People seemed to like this better, but only marginally so - the way one might prefer to be stabbed than shot. Optimally, one isn't stabbed or shot. Optimally, one eats some cake! But there are times when cake is not available, and instead we are destroyed. This is the deep poetry of the universe. -- Tycho Brahe

    Thanks everyone for your patience, and hopefully sticking with me through this

    Here's the latest:

    ****

    Now, back to our regularly scheduled game!

    ****

    "Toriskopa? She's the head priestess at the temple of Chauntea." Mayor Kjeldoran says, wiping sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand.

    "Captain!" he yells out. "Take them to the temple of Chauntea, and hurry!"

    The Captain nods, casting a glance at the dying fires.

    "Now!" The mayor reiterates.

    "Follow me." he says, and then begins to run toward the west part of town.

    ***

    The three of you pass by the others, who are helplessly watching some isolated buildings burning.

    Sage sees the others running and quickly tries to catch up. "You look as though you're going somewhere with a purpose. Where are you heading?"

    Miyuki sees the others running and follows, presuming they're being more productive. She figures she can get the details later...
