"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

But, but ... where's the insane evil antagonist in this story?  |

Yay Rosemary!
Methinks this is another case of a story she wrote long ago, which has managed to sneak up and surprise us when we least expected it.

Heh. I've never known Rosemary to use that particular trope.

Hi: it not only surprised Erik, it surprised me too! It got lost in somebody's computer somewhere on the way to being published....having seen Tron, I'm now visualizing this particular short as riding light cycles and battling its way to publication.
Glad everyone liked it. While I have no new Realms fiction on the horizon, there's some other projects coming in 2011 that are exciting for me. |

Oh man, that was just really, REALLY good.
Thank You - precisely the type of 'small tale' I enjoy. It practically drips 'Realms'. |

Thanks for the little story Rosemary (and thanks Matt for posting the link!)!
I like those little tales that make you want to pull out the dice!  And I like this kinda 1st level PC feeling! |
