Tuesday is the hardest day

      Yes, the scrollies changed a few days back. Frenzied Feline, sharp-eyed cat that she is, noticed today. She didn't mention two other changes that I made, but she may have noticed them. Did you?
      It was a busy day today. More theater group stuff. I'm slowly getting things done. I'll be glad when the patron drive is over. We've done okay. We've gained a lot of new patrons, but unfortunately lost some of last year's. But we won't be hurting for money as long as we're careful and watch our spending. I don't know of a non-profit group that doesn't have to do that.
      It was a hard day today. I was tired for most of it. Haven't been sleeping well. Wears me down. Doesn't leave me with a lot to deal with the myriad disappointments that the world seems intent on handing me. And sometimes I don't feel like pulling a victory out of defeat. Sometimes I just want to run away. Which is why I'm going to cut this short. No need to talk about it. Just the way things are on Tuesday the hardest day.
      So good night, y'all. See you tomorrow.
      Oh, and here's a bit for the Knaves.

From the History of the Dragons & Their Armoured Kin by Loremaster Edora Varlent

"When the Shadow Dragons appeared after the apparent death of Bahamut Cartocillian Sar, it was less a surprise than a confirmation of what many had suspected: Chiefly that for centuries, a unseen force had moved both for and against the Bone Throne. The Shadow Dragons' psionic powers and their ability to create and wield psionic enhancement items only added to their mystique.

It might seem odd that the Eberoni, as they call themselves, had remained undetected, but since their coloring closely resembles that of the ebony dragons, it is probable that they had been seen before but misidentified. Certainly the Eberoni took advantage of this.

What are their powers? The Eberoni have been careful to hide such knowledge, but apparently they hold the full range of psionic abilities thus noted in humanoids. There have been hints, however, that they possess ones undiscovered by even the vaulted mind witches of the Sarlissians. The most disturbing aspect of their shadowy powers is the possibility that they may have been using them to manipulate humanity for their own ends.

The discovery that Eberoni have human disciples can only be seen as alarming by the rulers of the Great Empire as well as any free-thinking humans ..."

Yes, FF, one of the other two changes is a new Favorite Quote. What's the other change?

Thanks for the sympathy. :)

SBB said...

Vibes would be received gratefully, Joel!

Knaves is sounding VERY interesting. Will we poor people who don't get to participate be receiving any more details on this?

so which side will the eberoni side with? is boaz still assuming the throne? gotta love the dragon drama!

SBB said...

Slim, a few more items will be posted, but not much more. It's a very complicated story so there won't be too much of it here.

The second change is at the bottom of the blog, FF.

Cartoc, you'll have to wait and see. But I can tell you this: The Eberoni aren't the only "unknown" clan of the dragons. There are others, one of which you'll learn more about this time. Painfully more.
