It contains many things, hopes, dreams, possibilities, as well as danger sorrow and, regrettably, hate as well. The contents of the chest are never in and of themselves the answer, but merely a means to an end, and in some cases a helping hand, while in others a mere distraction." Drax smiles, and looks towards the barmaid. "Another glass of your crystal clear water, mayhaps. All of this talking has made my mouth parched. Another slice of bread would also be greatly appreciated." Drax returns his attention to Lightfinger. " In any case, I would be interested in accompanying you to your fair land. It sounds somewhat intriguing, and my ..... talents..... have come in useful on more than one occasion." ----------------------------------- jax@polyslo.calpoly.edu Another Keeper of the Archive
