WWLVIII: Escape From Angband (or Behavioral Modification) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

It certainly suggests she was a lover, but for some reason Hamlet didn't go down with her. Perhaps because of our ranger...? Or we simply don't have traditional lovers. If we do have the traditional lovers, a werecreature and a non-werecreature...if the wolves killed one of their packmate's lover...?

I guess it's probably a waste of time to speculate on it...unless Mira was lover to a werecreature and we can follow a trail to them...which I doubt. The trail part anyway.

We need to look a bit at why the wolves picked Mira, too, of course. Maybe I'll have time to go over her posts a bit before I go to bed, but I'm definitely not staying up as late as I did at the start of yesterDay...

A note about yesterDay - I guess the double vote thing was what Legate was experimenting with. Bleh.

(Edit: Crossed with many...mostly Shasta.)

A tisket, a tasket, a basket full of rye
I wonder, yes I do, what has caught Durelin's eye?

Shasta is certainly Hamming it up.

Alas, poor Durelin, I knew Ham well, a pork of infinite jest.

That's really pretty clever.

Clever is, as clever does, but clever and intelligent are two different things, says the virtuous fool.

Suggests, madam! Nay, it is; I know not "suggests".

Ok so I have to ask. For lovers if one dies the other dies? Or not? Because I thought it was if one gets killed by the wolves then the alive lover gets to have a revenge kill. Or is that just not the case?

Really to bed now.

That's how I thought lovers worked in previous games here...but that doesn't mean anything. It might well be the revenge thing in this game because we only have one lover down...if Mira was a lover.

Is this then sorta a warning maybe?

But to my mind, — though I am native here
And to the manner born, — it is a custom
More honour'd in the breach than the observance.

...Or in the observance, rather than the breach, if thou tak'st my meaning.

Shastanis Althreduin · 03-19-2009, 10:17 PM

To one of you:

O, villain, villain, smiling, darned villain!
My tables, — meet it is I set it down,
That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain.

Shastanis Althreduin · 03-19-2009, 10:18 PM

And to that I say -

The time is out of joint; O cursed spite,
That ever I was born to set it right!

Shastanis Althreduin · 03-19-2009, 10:19 PM

The time is out of joint - ay, the time, the time!

You cannot, you will not take from me anything that I will more willingly part withal — except my life — except my life — except my life.

Durelin · 03-19-2009, 10:20 PM

Wellll, looks like this is going to be a long day...
