Melina was an attempt to use a stack of beasts to out-maneuver the faery horde. At the time, dragon-breeding had just been discovered, but no one had bred a significant number of them yet. That left a window where the use of 'normal' beasts was at its maximum effectiveness. In no way was Melina an attempt to take faery, but we thought there was a chance to raze a castle and run. - cisco -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- cisco@src.honeywell.com lope0019@maroon.tc.umn.edu ------------------------------------------------------------- An employer?
