Re: Town Square
In reply to GM (msg # 54):
Tegan listened intently as the old Gnome read from the parchment -- from the way he spoke, it even looked like he might be reciting it from memory, but the Half-Elf had trouble crediting that the old codger's recall was that sharp.
~"Blood and Honor" -- glory to the good gods, it's in there, right enough -- the old fellow got it right. And there's another catchphrase -- "Light and Knowledge" -- that might also mean something. And who's this Watcher, I wonder -- the one referred to in the "Watcher Willing" wording . . . that could be helpful to know.~
"That's . . . interesting," Tegan said after the Gnome had finished his telling, "but sadly, I have no clue as to what any of it means."
"Still and all, I'd like to be able to study the words from time to time, in the hopes that understanding will come to me at some point. And I have no chance of remembering all that. Do you some paper, ink, and a pen? I'll pay you for them."
"Then, I'll trouble you to read . . . recite . . . those words again -- slowly, if you please, so that I can write them all down. Or, if you think it better, you can write them down yourself. Either way, there's a little extra coin in it for you as a recompense for the writing supplies."
OOC: DM, what sort of a roll would Tegan need to make to see if he knows anything about "The Watcher", or the "Light and Knowledge" catchphrase? Thanks.
