A stitch in Souragne - OOC

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Higginz; you can have your character come walk up the road to the good Doctor's house now. Describe yourself to the group, if you please.

[Guzrath]

I will be abroad for a long weekend for a family reunion of sorts. I know they have internet, but it being a reunion will also mean I will hardly have a moment for myself. So I dunno if I will be able to post from wednesday to sunday.

Higginz, what exactly are you trying to do with the machine?

[Higginz]

He's just trying to get a closer look at it while the doctor is distracted. He's not going to actually do anything with it though.

The machine is roughly the size and shape of a shoebox, and appears to be made mostly of steel, though with some brass fittings and a few copper pipes running around the outside. There are two small holes, one on each of the longer sides, from which a little bit of steam trickles. The steam smells slightly scummy. At one of the shorter sides of the machine is a clamp, in which the pewter cup is fixed - a receptacle for the clean water. On the other short end, there's a round opening, which is probably where the unpurified water is introduced to the machine. A large ring, made of equal parts copper, brass and steel, turns on top of the box with a soft ticking noise. This may well be the key to keep the machine running.

The next chapter will be starting soon. Good job to Ken for asking a very significant question!

[Ail]

Indeed, indeed! Now this makes all the difference.

WHERE IS EVERYBODY?!

[Ken of Ghastria]

I am here, sahib. I delayed posting for a couple of days because I worried that Lucien might be hogging the conversation with Doctor Arrogant. Thanks for the kudos about the question. Yes, I've been gaming long enough to realize the folly of overlooking a knowledgeable NPC!

[Rock of the Fraternity]

And may I just compliment you on your fine posting, sirrah? ^^ Alas, the Doctor is not just knowledgeable - he's shrewd enough to see what you were trying to pull, there.

OOC: erm, mr DM, does Zumba know how to get to the Lac Noir?

[Rock of the Fraternity]

You all know: Chicken Bone's Superior Message spell implanted you with the route you have to follow to get to him. Kind of like being implanted with a Google Ravenloft map.

The new chapter is up. Enjoy your breakfast and make plans; what are you going to do today and where are you going? Some of you have PMs incoming.

[Ken of Ghastria]

Cool post, Guzrath. Vincent is an interesting guy -- lots going on beneath the surface.
