Ahhhhhh....that's it, that's it!  The demonic picha!  Kill it... Kill it... Kill it!!!!!

[Sir William Marcus]

What is done,  is done.




Deus Vult!

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

And there was much rejoicing...

[Femme Falchion]

Readers will note:  that is one of the Sister's hatchets that cleaved the demonic creature asunder (although she did jump up on a chair for a few minutes...)

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

Don't be fooled into thinking she did this out of "fear". Jumping to a higher postion gave her a tactical advantage* over the demonic creature and allowed her to use the effects of gravity to deliver a horrific blow against a minion of Satan.

*the holding of the "high ground" has always been considered an advantage in conducting military style operations. One wants to hold the high ground for obvious reasons; line of sight, effects of gravity, etc. It is a dominant position (stay focused!) It would also have biblical applications since Heaven is always seen as resting higher than the plane of Hell. Even Star Wars reinforces the concept when Obi Wan cuts Anikan's legs off after warning him of his physical disadvantage in the final part of the epic showdown in Episode III.

[Sir William Marcus]

[Femme Falchion]

thank you for clarifying Warrior Monk.  Of course it's hard for Sister Hatchet *oh how I love writing in 3rd person narrative!* not to be dominant....whatever the position may be 

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

[Femme Falchion]

I hope TJ won't be mad that we killed his pichas.

[Richard de Graeme]

Is anyone in control? One must reflect upon one's own motives for seeking control or perhaps desirous of being controlled or fear of losing control. Control is an illusion.......methinks....from the stream of consciousness spirit doth flow.

Fear not Femme Falchion, there be many pichas yet to "kill"! The Green Monk will aid in the flushing out of same.

[Just Jesse]

well, im in dauphin island, the fair was big, fun, got some knights to sigh a lance shard... met no one interesting though, exept the king

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

You met King Allyn the Only.

Wonderful news. If by chance you read this before returning tomorrow, if you feel so inclined, please extend my best wishes to his Majesty. Tell him "Templar wishes him well, and would have loved to attend, but new career changes put a damper on his travels for the moment".

I thank you for this effort.
