Newsgroups: alt.pub.dragons-inn Subject: +obadu [inn] Message-ID: From: tim@mik.uky.edu (timothy c huesman) Date: Thu, 15 Oct 1992 08:22:22 GMT +obadu who was a tracker removed from his sack several objects and placed each separately on the table before him. He picked them up one at a time and stared at each as though he were trying to remember from whence it had come. They included: A pair of short pants (shorts) that crinkled at his touch, a dagger made of black glass in a thin sheath, a stick having various colorful feathers attached at the bottom and a gourd-rattle at the top, a small bag of pearls on a long thong, a folded contraption that unfolded to become a very odd hat, and a strand of thin netting, rolled into a belt complete with shell clasps. The changes made evident in +obadu had slowed and then stopped. But certain changes in his anatomy made(for modesty's sake) the shorts a necessity; he put these on and they rustled as might paper-thin leaves. +obadu who was a tracker awaited something. But waiting while sleeping was the same as waiting while awake, so +obadu took a large, black pearl his hand and hesitated....then vanished..... .....but there appeared before Littlefair a large, black pearl and all in the inn could swear that all in a rush, a grey-skinned man had run directly at each of them and then vanished. Trained eyes saw the grey-skinned humanoid at the top of the stairs leading to the rooms. -- Doc Pan tim@mik.uky.edu Tim Huesman
