As Daniel Horne tells it, 􀂓On weekends some of my fellow SCA friends and I go into the countryside in costume. It was late afternoon and we stopped in an apple orchard for a rest. Then we started to sing the song that the dwarves had sung in The Hobbit. I looked to the sky and saw ragged scarlet clouds 􀂗 one of them in the shape of a dragon! I went home and quickly did a sketch of it.􀂔 Daniel told us the painting is untitled, and suggested we come up with a name for it if we wanted to.

And, in the servants􀂒 foyer, there should be a door to the kitchen opposite the door in the west wall.  \nOn the upper level map, that long void in the south part between the stairways is the Upper Gallery.  \nIt should be noted on the tournament PCs􀂒 sheets that they are all human, and three of them are dual-classed. To be official, the strength scores of Kai Randar and Velton Sectal should each be raised to 15.  \nColin Myrrh should also possess a ring of free action, and it should be noted that his armor class of 5 does not include his shield +2.  \nThe two double-sided documents are the map and the list of guests. All other documents are one-sided, and can simply be photocopied.  \nAlambar must have a vial of acid in his possession before he can use it.  \nFlaloch and Fleatis must go upstairs after 9:43 so that they can come downstairs at 9:50.  \nOtherwise, Kim, we got them all, with the exception of the three typographical errors which I􀂒m certain you'll find.  \nMichael Selinker  \nEvanston, Ill.  \nroll 20 or less for her hit points, and the party could possibly dispatch her by slaying her homonculous.
