    The table was a shallow triangle. Ksarul did not get a seat. No, they all sat around and were sort of nice to each other - Ksarul really did cheese the lot of them off...

    Very good! Yes, this is a Streamline Moderne clothes steamer that Phil used to have.

    Wanna hear how it worked on the Ssu?

    So, caution and experimentation were advised, despite suspecting that it's a steam cleaning machine of some sort, and because I didn't get that it's trying to clean clothes.

    Your caution is not misplaced; we came to grief a number of times from assuming we know how a device worked. Like the time Gronan pulled the safety pin out of the metallic sphere and threw the device at the Black Ssu who was chasing him at the time...

    No offense taken or assumed. Having been dead for a bit, some years back, I have my own opinions on the subject.
    Well, after the guess of Lord Green hi Tongue, I think we can all relax and think of how to use it best. Or, we can seek the answer in the stories of heroes that came before us!

    That makes two of us. We should compare notes some time.

    You totally should.

    What happened? Was it a bottle of perfume?

    Chirine, I had a question about something you mentioned a while back. Empress Dashiluna. You said her antics caused you a lot of trouble. Was that just referring to her legacy of nasties, or did you actually go back and meet her at some point?

    Agreed; I'll fill everyone in.

    I still owe you some e-mails, too! Life at work is still being bizarrely crazy, but it's getting better.
