Grayling - Wednesday, June 18, 2003 - Page 300 Mid: I can understand the one that looks exactly like me. A backup, right? But what about these metallic looking ones? / Cal: I designed a simple robot for each phase of your development, besides the tests on Jalopy. It was...necessary. I didn't run them for very long. / Mid: Why? / Cal: They could...
Grayling - Friday, June 20, 2003 Cal:Yes.. I understand. I'm rather afraid of myself. / I've never been alive, Midnight. I was never born the way you were born. You don't remember being small, but it happened to you, things happened to you that I never had. / I'm not trying to make you feel guily, I am merely trying to explain... what...
Grayling - Sunday, June 22, 2003 Cal: Ah.. those are your vital signs. If you are uninjured, however, they display your emotions. Red for anxiety, yellow for mild disquiet, green for content, blue for pleasure, and .. well, usually some mixture of those colors, such as purple, will indicate various other, more specific emotions. / Mid:...
Grayling - Monday, June 23, 2003- Page 304 Smoke:Wake up, fern. You need a bath. / Fern: Gzzbt. / Fern: Did I do anything stupid? Pretty sure I did ... dunno what... errr.. too har to think.. / Fern: M'tired, Smoke. Couldn't this wait ... / Smoke: It's eleven in the morning. You got enough sleep. / Fern: Mmm... I smell coffee.. you made coffee? / Smoke:...
Grayling - Thursday, June 26, 2003 - Page 305 Mid: How long is this drive going to take? / Smoke: Not long. We need to teleport to a point near Tower, and then drive inside. Should take about 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. / Mid: Why not just teleport ourselves straight there? / Fern: Because, my mortal-brained friend, there are RULES pertaining...
 
Grayling - Friday, June 27, 2003 - Page 306 Smoke: Remember, the car is on the Ceras level B. What's the plan? / Fern: I hope the market isn't full of tourists.. / Fern: What's the matter, Mid? / Mid: Nothing.. it's just.. wow. I didn't know Tower was.. this big. / Fern: Don't worry, you get over the awe fast once you meet the inhabitants. / Smoke:...
Grayling - Saturday, June 28, 2003 Cal: Oh. Sterling. Now I remember what I wanted to do. If you don't mind terribly, I would like you to spend some time with Mid alone. / Cal: I expect you'll hae plenty of topics to discuss. / Sterling: Aye aye, sir. / Cal: There will lenty of time for you to shop later, Mid. you kow where to meet us,...
Grayling - Tuesday, July 1, 2003 - Page 308 Fern: I frikkin' hate shopping. There must be a BILLION different things in here, and I probably would wear only two of them. / Smoke: I'll find them for you. Go in the changing room. Try this on. / Fern: Changing room? But-- / Smoke: In. / Fern: I hate taking my clothes off in a strange place... / Smoke:...
Grayling - Friday, July 4, 2003 - Page 309 Sterling: Well, since this is your first time in a real Faidian city, you'll get to sample a few of our foods.. that should be interesting for you. / Mid: Yeah.. This does seem like an amazing city. / Mid: But what were you saying before? / Sterling: This is an awkward subject to breach, but... you...
Grayling - Tuesday, July 8, 2003 - Page 310 Mid (narration): That was a very long day.. I thought about what Sterling and I talked about all the way ... / Mid (narration): All the way ... home. Heh. "Home," is it, now? / Mid (narration): I got new clothes... It's odd, people complain about materialism... But there is so much comfort in objects...
 
Grayling - Saturday, July 12, 2003 Morse: I guess something must have gone wrong...The thing is, where am I now? Am I still in heaven..or whatever that was? This seems pretty real to me... / {rumble} / Morse: Och, I'm starving. Definitely real. / Morse:..Huh? / Morse: Oh...what a cute little creature you are. Do you talk? Can you help...
Grayling - Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - Page 312 Dragon: {*leave*} / Morse: Hey! Wait! You can't just walk away from me! I know you can talk...at least, I think you probably can. If you can't speak English, at least SAY something to me in your own language...I need help, here! / Morse: This is still Faidia, isn't it?...Listen, you're the only person...
Grayling - Thursday, July 24, 2003 - Page 313 Morse :It's so cold... at least the moon is nice... / Abelarde: *sniffffff* *snifsniff* / WHAT, may I ask, do you think you're doing still here? Go away! Go home! Your kind are not wanted here! / Morse: Oh, so you've decided to talk at last, eh? / Abelarde: Go away! / Morse: I haven't got anywhere TO...
Grayling - Saturday, July 26, 2003 - Page 314 Morse: Excuse me for what may be an unfair assumption, but is there anything questionable in this that I should know about before eating it? Like.. um. Strange animal parts and the like. / Dragon: I see no purpose in excusing you, since you seem to thrive on making what you call unfair assumptions,...
Grayling - Sunday, July 27, 2003 - Page 315 Morse: ochh.... must be morning.. / Morse: Hrm.. Wonder where my new "friend" went... / Morse: He has some weird stuff, for a wild dragon... / Morse: Y..you have a human form! / Morse: And you haven't got ANY CLOTHES ON. / Abelarde: If it's any of your business, yes, I am a coagliate. But believe...
 
Grayling - Monday, July 28, 2003 - Page 317 Abelarde: Wh.. Are you mad? You can't just stroll up to Faidia and start a conversation. If it were possible, don't you think I would have done it already? / Morse: Impossible for you, maybe. I think the individual we're talking about is... my cousin. And if he doesn't speak to ME after all that's happened......
Grayling - Tuesday, July 29, 2003 - Page 318 Nordstrom: So this is the human you found? / Abelarde: Do you see any other humans around here, Nordstrom? / Nordstrom: Don't get smart-alecky with me, Abelarde... So, where did she come from? / Abelarde: No idea. She has a wild story having to do with elementals. / Other: Oh, wonderful. I'd hoped...
Grayling - Wednesday, July 30, 2003 - Page 319 Abelarde: I gave her something to calm her. She's asleep now. / Nordstrom: Why weren't we more kind to her? We saw that she was a child.. / Abelarde: It's not our job to comfort humans. / Other: What kind of monsters are we if we don't even assist a fellow living creature? / Abelarde: ..well... / Seth:...
Grayling - Thursday, July 31, 2003 - Page 320 Next morning / Abelarde: Ah... you're awake. Ahem. Well... To start.. It is necessary for you to understand how many Faidians feel about the elementals .. Please note that this is to explain, not excuse, our behavior. / They abandoned us, just, as it seems, they abandoned you. On that account, we have...
Grayling - Thursday, August 7, 2003 - Page 321 Abelarde: Let's.. review what Curtis told you. Right now that seems the most important, because he's.. or was, in the present. / Morse: Yes.. He told me they knew where and.. WHEN to put me... / And that it's.. a matter of choice for me, now... / But I don't really feel like I have a choice at all.. / Abelarde:...
 
Grayling - Friday, August 15, 2003 - Page 322 six weeks later / Abe: You're still working on that crow-shay? / Morse: It's "crochet." And yes, I'm still working on it. / Abe: Waste of good lorriam wool if you ask me. / Morse: Nobody DID ask you. And wasn't it you who said I needed clothes for when it gets cold? I'm sick of wearing this same thing...
Grayling - Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - Page 323 Morse (narration): I stayed as long as I thought I needed to ... learning as much as I could without tipping him off... / Morse (narration): Six months.. itw as hard to believe I'd been here that long. / Morse (narration): I had to go... / Morse (narration): I knew he wouldn't let me, so I planned to...
Grayling - Saturday, September 13, 2003 - Page 324 Abelarde: Morse? ... Morse? / Abelarde: Where is she? Where did she go? / Abelarde: MORSE!
Grayling - Sunday, September 14, 2003 - page 325 TWO DAYS LATER / {Morse is asleep in a field} / *rumble* / Morse: Mrf... G'way, Abe, I'm sleeping.. your breath stinks.. / Big critter: {Looms and glares} / Morse: Oh. / Morse: You're.... Not Abe, are you.
Grayling - Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - page 326 {Abe running in} / Abe: MORSE! DON'T MOVE! / Morse: Abe...? / Big critter: {glares} / {Big critter and Abe stand off} / Morse: {thinking} This is all my fault! Please Abe... I hope you know what you're doing...
 
Grayling - Saturday, September 20, 2003 - Page 327 Wait -- what just happened? He's not going to eat us? Did you two talk or something? Where are we going? / And stop holding onto my hand that way, I don't have to be lead like a child --! / SHUT up. / Haven't you done enough damage with your searing ignorance ALREADY? / You have NO idea what you've done....
Grayling - Wednesday, September 24, 2003 - Page 328 Morse: Um.. What are these big mounds? / Abelarde: Nests. These are clay fields where the carmors brood. We're staying the night here. The full assembly won't be here until tomorrow. / Morse: I wasn't anywhere near these.. why are they so mad? / Abelarde: You trespassed on their hunting territory, not...
Grayling - Thursday, September 25, 2003 - page 329 THE NEXT MORNING / Abe: All right. The trial is over. / Morse: That was pretty quick. What's going to happen to us? / Abe: They won't kill us if we complete a task for them, / Morse: Comlete a task...? So this is like.. Hercules and cleaning stables or something? That makes sense. / Abe: What are you...
Grayling - Saturday, September 27, 2003 - page 330 Morse: So what is the task? / Abe: We have to somehow rid an area of an "evil spirit." Apparently it's been causing bad weather and whenever they try to get near it, it overpowers them somehow... / Abe: Carmors are powerful creatures, but only physically. They possess no magic. / Morse: Wow.... But...
Grayling - Sunday, September 28, 2003 - Page 331 & 332 [page 331] / Morse: Hmm. Maybe not "seagull." More like "wonking great petrel." / Abelarde: He's an albatross. It's a far distance from the ocean, though. / Mores: Perhaps he's lost? / Abelarde: He must not think we're a threat to him. He wouldn't let the carmors as close as this. / Morse: Wait......
