Well met, fellow scribes.
I hereby return from afar, and i'm astounded at the large collection of scrolls which have accumulated in this time 
It will take me a good while to read through the posts herein, as well as the PMs and emails. Rest assured, I will respond eventually, so please be patient if your correspondance requires a reply 
Now, let's see if any of the traps I left in my chamber have been triggered

As you see, discussion proceeds in your absense. However, that does not mean that you are not needed or were not missed. A warm and friendly Welcome back, Alaundo!

It was a couple of the Calishite Dancing Girls, I swear! I told them to stay out of there... And no, I don't know how your bed got broken.  |

That third one on your desk was a bit to much in my opinion; I am still hurting. I will also object both to the amount of dust and spiders located at the back of your closet and at the collapsing bed trap. You could have caused serious damage with that one. |

Alaundo has been gone? 
No one informed me in the cellars... neither was I invited into the part... er... I mean.. to dust the books in the library! |

All that writing must have made your fingers stiff. I didn't have any problems with the desk, and the bed was not trapped, just old and not made for jumping. As for the closet did you see the ... uh-oh ...got to go.
Oh hi, Alaundo. Didn't see you standing there. I hope you enjoyed your trip. You can see we took real good care of the place for you. |
Anyone who likes to read something that's really dark and gritty and completely awesome ought to read The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks. You can check out a little taste at www.BrentWeeks.com I should probably warn you, though, that it is definitely not PG-13 :-D
He also started a new Trilogy with Black Prism, which may even surpass the Night Angel Trilogy in its awesomeness.

Oh that's nice, come in after I have done all the work and say it was easy? I spent three hours putting that bed back together; not to mention the desk. You going in after me explains the mess.
Alaundo, it was all Brynweirs fault, I am not to blame. |

| Welcome back! And if someone says something about a multi-faceted silver "disco" ball hanging from the middle of the Temple to Oghma, I know of no such thing. |
One usually has far more to fear from the soft-spoken wizard with a blade and well-worn boots than from the boisterous one in the ivory tower.

Well, as long as you're 'Staying Alive,' especially on Halloween when most others are undead... I don't see a problem with it. Besides, some of my favorite songs are disco related, though the 80's are still my favorite. But as they say, When In Rome...
Also, welcome back Alaundo! |

I love the 80s too...besides, there was plenty of disco and funk music created in the early eighties. |
