fost from Z'leyra on actions.. From: Alex Koponen Message-ID: <55D64733.7020904@mosquitonet.com> Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2015 13:31:31 -0800 Subject: [pnpgm] necklace & redistribute loads X-BeenThere: pnpgm@list.powersandperils.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.15 Z'leyra will pay the ferry fees. As the party is ferried across the water Z'leyra first suggests to Corona that this would be a good time for him to catch a fish for him to eat as we would be away from the coast during much of the next few weeks with few opportunities to catch fish except in the occasional stream or pond. Next Z'leyra goes to the new party members and tries to ascertain what languages (including sign language) that they might know. If Pyandalgor and Zabyra don't speak Marentian she will determine which to loan the necklace to by whichever has least number of languages in common with party members (whichever would have the most difficulty communicating with the party will get the loan of the necklace first, then alternate till both learn Marentian). To both of them she will describe the magic of the necklace and how to use it. "This necklace is enchanted to once per day enable the wearer to have a chance of learning the spoken language of someone who is speaking nearby. To trigger the magic one must put it on around ones neck, hold the knot in your hand and say (in Marentian) 'Understand'. This will give you a chance to learn the language that you concentrate on listening to. It doesn't always work and it works more reliably for some than others. Hopefully in a few days both of you will be able to speak Marentian. I would be interested in learning any other languages you might be proficient in." She then loans the necklace to one of them. After that Z'leyra will go calm, comb and chat with the horses. She will see which thinks they might be overloaded and slowed. When time for unloading from the ferry she will suggest to the folks that are slowing their horse by the encumberance that they redistribute some of their gear to the horses that are being used as packhorses. _______________________________________________ pnpgm mailing list pnpgm@list.powersandperils.org http://www.powersandperils.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pnpgm
