Oh! Oh!
Polare's talk with Papa Dyevia!!!<sic> Hands down, one of the best speeches I've heard Polare give.
And Papa's example of the dog was neat too. Those older wise folks sure can surprise ya. ;D
Yes!!! Polare's speech was incredible! Did you notice how, as Polare explained the real reason for his wish, a beam of sun actually broke through the clouds, illuminating him and Papa Dayeva! It was like something out of a movie! Such a shame that only four people got to witness that. ^_^ And Dave, BRAVO on your rendition of Papa Dayeva! Despite lack of costuming and the ungodly hour of the morning, I didn't doubt for a moment who you were. And that thing that you did with your eyebrows was really cool!
Another memorable aspect of this game was the endless fog of carnivorous mosquitoes. It made for such an odd moment; my attention divided between the final battle in the tournament, keeping my brother sane, and attempting to fight off those blasted little blood-suckers. (They defeated me good. I have exactly 9 bites on *each* knee.)
Talking with Polare until dawn on Friday. Stange how IG stuff can sometimes hold so much OOG relevance. How it?s possible to love a two year old... that was some valuable advice. Thank you.
The most powerful beings in the universe suddenly appearing in the tavern, and Ellie scrambling to give them good service. Ellie nearly had a heart attack when she realized that she forgot to serve the hunter, and he immediately declared ?The service here stinks!? And when the King confined her, she was sure she was done for.
The conclusion of the liche plotline was really fun. Not as much terrible stuff happened as I?d hoped, but Mr. Ugly Bones did the best he could considering circumstances. A lot of great RP! Thanks Bond, for rolling with me on that one!
I still can?t figure out what exactly made this game so great. Maybe it was just a combination of everything; good plot, good RP, incredibly devoted NPCs, and a recent change in my attitude about the game. Whatever it was, thank you everyone! That game was *perfect*
Thanks for giving me something to think about while I?m in my basement in Alaska this summer. See ya?ll in September! Take care!
