Slime Salad

"Certainly! It will take a little time, particularly since I am closing up shop soon to attend the new Queen's coronation, but if you return tomorrow at sundown I can have an acceptable copy available for you, for a price of 10 gold." Meleander's right eye winks like light glancing off a m...

"Well, Specifically, there is an old blind Poet name Uosh who claims to be from those parts. I interviewed him when he first came to Srappa, hoping he would know some geography, but it was hard to tell if anything he said was meant to be taken literally." Meleander points at the drawing of...

Catt totally fails to comprehend the woman's expression and body language "Aaanyway, think about it, okay? *wink* *wink*" "Calm down, wrinkle-bones!" she says to the old man. "You the boss? Nice morgue you run here. I'll recommend it to my enemies." "Thanks for the...

"Inland, you say?" Meleander runs a finger across the north edge of the map. "The sea itself is my area of expertise, but I can tell you what I know." "Sailors say if you keep going this way, it gets very cold. Meleander points at a blurry-edged continent on the north edge o...

After she is finished gathering her stuff, Catt tells Renold, "I'll catch up with you in a few minutes!" She has no idea who the members of the Dark Knives are, nor how to contact them, but in her recent days of carousing, she has marked a few people who seem like they might be assassins. ...

"Aha! Now that is exciting." says Meleander. They get up from the chair and go to a shelf and pick out a folded map. Returning it to the table, Meleander spreads it out, and gesture towards it. I'm going to hold off on drawing this big map unless is is really needed later. Better to leave ...

Hey, BMR, when we quit the last campaign, Catt was carrying some of Kamaron's stuff. If he specifically asked for her to return it, she would have given it back cheerfully, but if he forgot to ask, she would still have it, and be pretending it was hers now. Here is what she was holding for him: * Ma...

Meleander laughs, sounding even more like a stringed instrument being plucked than when they speak. "I was crafted by a powerful sorcerer a few hundred years ago, to do his bidding. However, I outlived him, and now I work only for myself. Cartography is my passion, so I have made it my career.&...

Catt laughs, and claps Gorak on the shoulder. "I like those long odds!" She takes from her pack the (now cleaned and appraised) Ruby Necklace from Demon Pot that she picked up on their unsuccessful mission. "So 100-to-1 on our crew? The Jewler over on 3rd street told me this was worth...

Thanks for the great review! You are absolutely right about the inconsistencies in style and tone and artwork-- just an unfortunate side-effect of working on the game off-and-on for 20 years (my goodness! 20 years!) Having it all described in your review is very helpful. I hope to make the remaining...

Yay! Congratulations on the release! Good work Willy, and everyone who contributed!

"I knew you were the right man to ask, Gorak!" Catt takes out a pen and scrawls notes on her forarm: P.Dragons in bed with Duke/ Kor-Saders are British Orcs/ Dark Knives whatever/ Blue Tridents Churchy-Church/ Merch. G. no good/ She nods to herself, satisfied that she will understand all o...

I was assuming that Horace was with us, but yes, it seems like his question got ignored.

The "lookup slice" command finds the first slice that has that code, and returns a handle to it. If you want to do an action on all the slices that have a specific lookup code, there are other ways to do it. Do all the slices you care about have the same parent? If so then you can loop thr...
