Charon either:

1) has never dealt with cats

or

2) is intentionally setting himself up

He's overconfident for an 18 year old, and isn't conscious enough to recognize that it's a cat he's telling to fuck off. Yeah, I know this is gonna end badly.

Axum was a real nation that existed where present day Ethopia, Somalia and Sudan are today. It also ruled parts of Southern Arabia at it's high point, mostly around present day Yemen I believe. It co-existed with and outlasted the Roman Empire.

And almost no one outside of Ethopia and a few scholars even remember it existed today.

But the myth was derived from distorted tales about Ethiopia.

I was told it was a distorted bit about Mongol advances, the hordes had some Nestorian Christians as troops and officers.

Either way, Ethiopia would have a high Bastet presence. I'm asking DS now what my unique background might get from the idol.

Although, Boxer might not like her answer. Bastet never pass gossip or secrets for just anyone to figure out. :twisted:

Some of the myths put him in Ethiopia, either from distorted accounts of that land or because Europeans couldn't find him in Asia and went looking for foreign Christian kingdoms surrounded by Muslims that fit the bill.

Oh Prestor John... I'll admit most of my information on him comes from Eco's Baudolino which puts him in somewhere around present day India.

IRWriter86: I have Correspondence 2 Matter 2, can I get a beer from somewhere where it's after 5 o'clock?
DarkSteele: I'd imagine so..
DarkSteele: it's just beer..
IRWriter86: Excellent. Do you want me to roll or anything?
DarkSteele: depends....are you going to blatantly pull a beer out of no where?
IRWriter86: No I'm gonna put the beer back and then pull out another beer from the fridge, not mentioning where it came from unless asked.
IRWriter86: This new beer will be from Moscow.
IRWriter86: Maybe I should go with vodka... No, even that's too much for 10 am.
DarkSteele: ...
DarkSteele: it's liquor at 10am..
DarkSteele: Rowin will have a problem with it no matter what..
IRWriter86: Yeah but as far as Jason's concerned he was diplomatic about it.
IRWriter86: He drank a beer from somewhere where it was after 5. Thus he is not an alcoholic.
DarkSteele: ...
IRWriter86: :grin:

No Tev. It's my plot hook and I gave it to DS, you don't get to ran off with it just because your character has hairballs.

to bad

I used my last post to do something with the Idol.

Next time someone wants to throw something like this in the game, talk to me first, so I'm not starring at a big lump of "what should I make of this" without prior knowledge.

Nonsense. I'm sure that they are in no way relevant to the plot.

In other news, I've become a Catholic.

Of course the murders aren't relavent to the plot.

The mysterious ass pincher, though, completely is.

You must find the ass pincher!

Psshaw. It's just another Marauder. Not a problem, unless he brings a Bygone through the Gauntlet.
