Not Feeling Well
I'm giving people warning that I may not post today. I will try to write if I feel better.

589 - Roses and Fanilas in the Bed
I know that I am dreaming. I am in the Hearthstone Independent. If I could open my eyes I would see fleeces
and feather pillows and feather beds and the edges of Yeola-e style bed
boxes. I would see the glowing, warm
walls, the stones built thick with hot water running through.
The glass windows instead of scraped parchment,
scraped vellum to let a watery, transluscent light through

588 - Mind the Trug
The traditional Arkan carry chair… one carried by
bearers on foot as opposed to this wildly modern idea of an express chair… was
trotted up and set down carefully in front of the Itrean house.
The Itreans had not moved from the familial home,
though the miniature and the plinth before the house had been replaced by a
sculpture of a winged horse poised with only one hind foot upon the
bearers on foot as opposed to this wildly modern idea of an express chair… was

587 - Aras's Verse of Conquest: 83
It was very late in
Chevenga's… Virana-e's house, even though technically he did not own it, his
spouses did. Kallijas and I and Kyriala
and Laisa and all our entourage were staying another day so the family could celebrate
Kall and Laisa's betrothal. My gut was
uneasy and the height of the mountain was making my head pound.
I light the candle and
opened my holy book to a passage that

586 - Awwwww Gian!
Nuninibas is being a
dork. He's saying that my brother is
being bad by waiting so long to ask Kyriala to marry him.
I kind of agree with him
but there's no way I'm going to let him say stuff like that so I yelled at him
and he yelled at me and we got to pushing.
I don't know who said what first but we ended up rolling on the floor,
with some of his friends and some of mine around us,

585 - The ORF
MAHID WOMEN REIN IN DULIS
- by Kafiris Loren
Risae 8, 50 Y.P.A. Arko
City
Two days ago, contrary to
loud predictions of an enormous loss, the female Mahid team held the Flying
Dulis to a zero zero, with opened goals. The historic match was played in front
of an exclusive and appreciative crowd.
It seemed at first that the
Dulis would, as predicted, roll

584 - Touch My Razor Fan
The disk soared up, just
beyond her reaching glove and Irenas reached past her with his long arms,
snatched it and came down. Rather than
take advantage of his eight-stride safety, he snapped the shot to Mirenen,
their second enforcer who bore down on Amitza.
He didn't hesitate,
thinking he'd be able to roll right over her, not seeing her grin behind her
helmet bars. She ghosted

583 - What Did I Expect?
"As I said... I'm not intending to do anything about it right now..."
I said to Entera's white-all-the-way-around eyes. "Other than talk to you. You were not
quite as murderous as the rest of the drunken thugs you were hanging about
with... May I ask you... was it just because I was stupid enough to be
alone in a garden?"
He grabbed his crystal in both hands. "I never laid a hand on

582 - Spiking a Cleary
"Elsha… go in for Jorasa…
she only needs a moment or two more."
Elsha nodded and picked up her helmet, but didn't get up. They were still in the midst of mid-game. The choir sang softly as the watching crowd
spoke quietly, a sea-murmur of bets made and changed, and commentary on the first set play. Servants moved between the seats, offering refreshements.
