[SIZE=16]I have some questions about the geography of northwestern Mistone.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][/SIZE] [SIZE=16]http://lore.layonara.com/images/Mistone.jpg[/SIZE][/URL] [SIZE=16]Please consider the area encompassed by the following imaginary border: west from Palden lake to the Sea of Lampil coast; south from that point, tracing the coast to Krandor; northeast along the borders of the Dark Ash Woods and the Silkwood Forest; then passing thru Fort Llast northwards, and along the western verge of the Hammerbound Mountains; then along the south-southwestern border of the Whitehorn Forest back to Palden Lake.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]What is the terrain of the blank parts of this area? My guess is plains of some sort but I would like more specifics. Specifically what sort of terrain comprises this area? Is it all uniform or does it vary? What is the soil quality? To what extent is it settled? Is farming, grazing, and/or other agricultural activity conducted there, and to what extent? If there are farms and/or ranches, are they prosperous or barely surviving?[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]What is known of Lake Hurbinon and the Broken Swamp, just to its east?[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]A few roads are indicated, one roughly paralelling the coast; another forking off of that road roughly midway and traversing this area east to Llast; and a third looping off of the Llast road to the northwest, passing by Blackford Castle before intersecting the coastal road south of Leringard. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I understand Layo's technology level is roughly that of Roman times in the real world. So in light of this Roman level of technology, what is the composition and usual condition of these major roads through this region? As to minor roads not indicated on the map, do they uniformly cover this area, branching off from the major roads? Or are there still sizeable tracts not accessed by neither road nor trail? [/SIZE] [SIZE=16]I would appreciate details on the coastal town of Karst and an update on the present state of Fort Llast.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]Thanks in advance to whoever responds to these questions.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][/SIZE][/URL]

[SIZE=16]Krys was involved in an impromptu encounter (too short for a quest) initiated by Chongo earlier tonight. Because of time constraints I had to log prior to any debriefing by Chongo, but after I understood the action was completed. Krys was in the quiet chasm area and I received no more npc action or other input from Chongo. I rested and then logged because I had to. Before leaving my computer I pm'd Chongo telling him that I had simply ran out of time, in the event there was anything else in store.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][/SIZE] [SIZE=16]Moments ago, I logged in to move Krys back to Llast to log for the night, and found that the AT out of the chasm maze remains blocked.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][/SIZE] [SIZE=16]I would like to have some one port Krys out of the chasm maze.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][/SIZE] [SIZE=16]If for whatever reason Chongo wishes to continue the impromptu, I am more than happy to schedule with him and the other players involved.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]Thanks in advance for your help!

[SIZE=16]Setting: Krys and Ely sit on the floor of a bedroom in Quantums Haft Lake home. Ely had fled there to escape a vampire that had been hunting her. [/SIZE] [SIZE=16]Diligently searching for his love, Krys had found her there, comforting her and assuring her their children were all right. In doing so he touched upon a topic he had never shared with anyone outside his family.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16]N[/SIZE][SIZE=16]ot wishing to hide anything from his love, Krys shares the painful tale from ages long past.[/SIZE] [SIZE=16][SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **speaks quietly as he gently holds her close* After I received your note, I sent another to rose with instructions. she brought Coreth and Auhry to Lor where I took them on to Sadinia. They are safe with our family there[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: Oh Thank goodness! I couldnt risk going back and leading them straight to the children. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : Didnt tell em why you werent along and as I am not much of a liar at all *chuckles a bit* Theyre all worried now, but the boys are fine **gentle hug*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **she can easily tell whatever happened between him and his family when he dropped off the boys - krys doesnt have pleasant memories of*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **gently hugs her, dropping whatever memory he had, it fading to nothingness as he focuses past any feelings of his to place her and her well being once again in the center of his consciousness*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she gently looks into his eyes and places her hand against his cheek* What is wrong my love?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **serene smile* My parents, especially Father, were harsh with me when they had me alone briefly. But alas, it will pass.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: What happened? *she gently kisses his nose trying to reassure him she is there for him* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : They love you so much Ely, I understand them **gently hug as he looks deeply into her eyes*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : I have upset them alot in this life of mine **smiles lovingly with reassurance* We all get through it, learn and grow together.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]K[/SIZE][SIZE=16]rysthalien : This being the most recent trial **gently hugs her* they are demanding I cease my service of my Lord Vorax across the lands and remain home to be with you and our family, placing the blame of all thats happened to you on my shoulders.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]E[/SIZE][SIZE=16]lohanna Dawnstar: *she hugs him tightly and reassuringly* Krys it is not your fault at all! You could no more be caged in one spot than I could and I know how much helping is part of you. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **smiles gratefully, hugging her closely as well; a slight tremble revealling the pain he had felt from the confronation; seems to absorb the pain by opening himself to it and not resisting in any way*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: I know your father knows this. He is protective of you too. I know he wants you home where he believes its safe too. He just may not say it in so many words. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **nods to himself, seeming to conclude something; speaks quietly with deep conviction, clearly sharing something that matters greatly to him*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Ages past, my family were loyal footsoldiers and weaponsmiths for various great houses of our realm. And this was millenia ago, before the fallen ones were driven beneath the surface to the dark realms of the Deep where now they languish. In the very war where our people purged the surface of that filfth - our enemies being led by the one named Caduz before his ascencion.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she listens to him trying to convey her understanding as her hand gently holds to his own*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : My forefathers served in valor and complete selflessness **a good measure of pride is expressed as he speaks*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she smiles pridefully as she listens understanding how deeply his pride in his family goes* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : Their lords bestoyed upon them the name we now bear to this day, Dawnstar, and though it was but a name and no title or office, we have since borne our name with great pride, even though we are but common folk **looking deeply into her eyes as he speaks quietly*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**breathes deeply as he seems to approach a part of the tale he does not relish*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Driven on by their own pride and the rush of emotion following Great Victory, my forefathers lords elected to persue the fallen ones lead by CaDuz into the Deep with the intention to eradicate them once and for all.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Picture the glory of the finest elven legions - weapons sparkling in the light of the high sun, banners proudly flying above them as they marched[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *looks sadly to him as she listens understandingly* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : towards the dark caverns which they new would lead them into the Deep, there to face and vanquish their most hated foes. **voice trembling slightly as he quietly speaks*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she moves to hold him gently and comfortingly* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : And the lords of my forefathers - the lords pride, their hatred - dark forces of the heart they didnt know they shared with their fell enemies **sighs with deep resignation* these dark forces within their own hearts sealed their fate and that of my ancient kindred. With vigilance and loyalty, following their lords wills without hesitation, into the darkness many a Dawnstar marched.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**long pause, looking away with deep pain and helplessness*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Alas none returned, nor did any other of our fair warriors who entered the dark void that day. **swallows hard, steeling himself to continue the difficult story*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she gently moves his face to look at her knowing she is there for him and she understands completely, and she wants him to know he can tell her anything no matter how difficult.* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : A few Dawnstars survived, who didnt accompany that doomed army **sad grateful smile with her expression of loving empathy*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *her eyes looking into his trying to convey the comfort he often times gives to her* [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : Wounded warriors who could not go along **just looking deeply into her eyes with love and gratitude* Weaponsmiths who for whatever reason did not find themselves deployed with the main army that day. Having lost so many brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles to the treachery of the fallen, my forebearers met and vowed to forsook the way of the warrior, adopting instead peaceful professions in a variety of crafts and scholarly arts[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *she leans her head against his as she listens to the gentleness of his voice as he speaks softly* And your dad is worried your fate will be the same as theirs.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : My father, mother, aunts and uncles, my sisters and cousins and their families have followed this solemn comitment even to this day.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**gently hugs her nodding slowly; swallows hard* So more than that, I have broken the solemn vow my forebearers took to one another. Broken it by following my own heart and sense of what is right.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**gently hugs her* As I am the first Dawnstar to follow the Way of Warrior once again, since so many of ours were lost to the Deep and the evil of the fallen ones.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**smiles to ely lovingly with gratitude, although at the same time resigned* So my parents were not kind at all to me the other day[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]**swallows hard and just hugs her close, gently* My ancestors served in honor and valor, without question. Perhaps I should learn from that. It was their own lords who betrayed them.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: Krysthalien I know you well though and I know even though you do.. Your heart guides your judgement to be more. Forgive me for saying so. More reasonable than that of your ancestors.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **gently hugs her* Our ancestors my love[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *gently rocks them back and forth and rubs her cheek against his own grateful to be in his arms and it shows as her own trembling as stopped and she seems to have forgotten all about what happened in Llast*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]K[/SIZE][SIZE=16]rysthalien : **seeming to sense this he smiles serenely, breathing deeply and savoring her scent and their togetherness, eyes closed*[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: Our - Its still so much to take in - to become part of[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **opens his eyes looking deeply into hers with a loving smile, delicately caressing her face* love you so much Ely, my angel of light[/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Elohanna Dawnstar: *her eyes are captivated by the love expressed in his own* My Dawnstar, my Fire Opal always. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=16]Krysthalien : **tenderly kisses her; a deep sense of absolute love and heartfelt joy in being together thus with his true love and soulmate*[/SIZE]

-a note meticulously printed in common-
I have heard rumors from and of Bastil that I wish to clarify. Journeys through the northern islands have not strongly substantiated these.
Asking for anyone with knowledge of Bastils history or recent happenings there to contact me. Would like to meet at your convenience with questions I have.

A Letter to Hanna
**A falcon note is delivered to Hanna - it is written in Elven in an artistic flowing cursive**
Hanna, my love -
After our night together at Corax Lake I returned to Quantums house for meditations and prayer. Early the next morn I set forth, bound northward to where ever the four winds would take me.
There I found Hawklen, resting aside the path leading into the Forest of Fog, towards the giants domain. I erred in pausing to speak with him, forgetting that darkness is usually near at hand with that one. Soon the drow Delmar was there. The mere sight of him angered me, and we exchanged harsh words, his remarks further fueling the flames of my anger.
Thankfully, I refrained from taking it further. It was all I could do to hold back. I walked into the woods doing all that I could to restore proper balance within my mind. I took to the shadows and made for Vale, where I knelt in meditation just east of the village at the safe camp site there.
Tobias - that silly elf we met while you, Tyrian, and I were speaking together - he met me and invited me to journey with him. Shortly thereafter a dwarf, Gravas, joined us and my spirits improved as we journeyed northwards, fighting giants and enjoying each others company.
Later our group reached Dalanthar. A small mob was there, various groups of folk arriving from different parts, very chaotic. As ill spirits had returned to me, I did my best to keep quiet about a number of things going on there that did not sit well with me. Regrettably, I voiced my opinion of Kinai in the Fair Tongue, intending only for Tobi to hear this, but another named Wil, a druid whom you perhaps know, heard my utterance and immediately judged me, scolding me on the spot as if I had somehow committed some great wrong, saying something to the effect that how could some one who claimed to be so good could say such a thing.
Wils judgement and words did not sit well with me, other than pointing out to him that he was the one making judgement, I held my tongue.
My remark to Tobias, and not Wil, had been that Kinai cannot open her mouth without detracting from the sum total of the realms wisdom. I do not like her; she is confused to the point of insanity, and her recklessness does nothing but hurts those around her. I consider her a lost soul. After repeatedly trying to gently lead her from the course she has chosen, I have given up on her. Let her reap the harvest of her own error - perhaps she will learn that way.
Part of the mob followed Tobi, Gravas, and I into the ore hills and the mines there. Constant chatter whereas I needed solitude to ponder and right myself. After Tobias fell to a Treant in the Sinister Forest nearby simply because the mob was not working together as unit, I knew that it was best to seek solitude once again.
Many seemed to be troubled about my low spirits as I bid them goodbye.
I write you to assure you that I am better now, having meditated for an entire eve. The stillness and focus has returned to my mind. And after sending this to you, my love, I shall embark on a journey through Dregar, alone - to places where I know I can practice my arts without the help of others.
I am well and look forward to being with you soon. Holding you close; savoring your kisses; when we are together there is such harmony, such warmth, peace, joy and love. Truly I was meant to love you, to give you all that I can and more. Until soon my love, until soon.
Devotedly Yours Forever,
Krys

[SIZE=13]This past evening, my character died solely on account of the soul mother cut scene that appeared when another character lost their tenth soul strand. With the exception of two breaks of a few weeks each, I have played in Layo since June of 2005. Only once have I seen the cut scene actually work, and even then everything froze and I had to re-log.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]I have heard of many other instances in which this cut-scene freeze has cost other players their characters lives. Fortunately this evening, Krys didnt lose any soul strand. I hope none of the other players characters lost any strands. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]I am making this post to implore the team to re-develop something that works and doesnt cause others to crash - usually during fights where crashing proves fatal.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Heres a suggestion.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Player A has a character, Z who has lost 9 soul strands. A group with whom Z is journeying finds itself in a tough fight in which Z dies and loses his last soul strand. No cut scene occurs and the difficult fight is allowed to continue unabated. Player A receives the regular death options menu - nothing different than before. If for whatever reason player A chooses to Wait for help, any cleric examining Zs corpse will get a message that Zs soul has departed forever to the Plane of the Lost, and perhaps beyond, into the arms of Zs god. Please indulge me for the sake of this example, as a much more prosaic version of this message can easily be developed. Any form of raise/resurrection is impossible.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Effectively, the respawn option is the only one available to player A at this juncture. The respawn takes character Z to the death void or some similar area where player A witnesses some Soul Mother Scene alone in a place where it wont disrupt any other players game play.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Once Z is respawned, a grave stone appears where the corpse was located. Again, an apt inscription could be developed later, but for the purpose of this example, let it say, Rest in Peace Z.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Thanks for considering this. The soul mother cut scene is highly flawed and has an established history of injuring players interests by causing the deaths of characters who would not otherwise have been affected by the death leading to the cut scene. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]So if you are looking to improve Layo, getting rid of the cut scene and replacing it with something that works - not only makes sense, but is long over due.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=13]Respectully,[/SIZE]
