(2/2) Atlantis 2.0: Times 35 From: Geoff.Dunbar@alce.pt (Geoff Dunbar) Date: Wed, 04 Oct 1995 00:00:00 +0000 Sicman was pleased with the current situation. Everything has gone as planned and there was peace in the RoR territory. After considering situation, he decided, that it was time to start developing the empire. "Guard, call the Minister of Interior to meet me immediatly", he shouted. The guard saluted and went to find the Minister. After a couple of hours the minister was annouced to his emperor. "Sadi, I have decided, that it is time to educate our people." said Sicman to the nervous looking minister. "Educate, your minister ? That is going to take a lot of time and money." Sadi responses quickly. "What about the armies ?" "The situation is peacefull and we have no serious threat at the moment. Gather all your teacher and help The trade factions to increase their production to double in the end of this year." "That is impossible, your emperor. The wars have burdened us considerably and we have had not enough money to educate our teachers" Sadi said sadly. "What !!!!! Haven't to got any teachers at all ????" Sicman shouted. "No, your divine emperor." "Guards !!!. Take the Minister of Interior and have his throat cut immediatly. You there, what's your name ?" Sicman sadi pointing to a nervous looking official in the corner." "Durnik, your majesty." responded the man quickly. "I hear by nominate you as the Minister of Interior from here on. you first job is to arrange the education of teachers for various professions. Beware not to disappoint me, you will end your days the same way as your predessor." Sicman said in official voice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To the Jaca Alliance: You thought you were all powerfull, You thought you could stand against the orders of chaos, You couldn't. Then what did you do, did you admit defeat and come to a peaceful arrangement? No, you called in foreign barbarians into the one fair city of Jaca. You summoned these savages known as the "PCP" to do your murdering for you and murder they will. Jaca Alliance- you are lower than animals. I may die in Jaca at the hands of the PCP but I laugh with scorn at those such as you who cannot fight their own battles or even admit defeat when beaten.At least I go to my graves a free man with my honour intact rather than as the pets of the PCP. One last thought- how long do you think it will be before the PCP gets tired of its new pets and decides to use them for target practise? Not long I'll wager. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Big Jim smashed his fist on the open book. Damn! There were so many things to remember. For the first time in his life, he doubted himself. Could he be a great general? Was he destined to be second fiddle to Desmorandus? He hoped not. He couldn't stand that bloodthirsty monster, and being second to him was unthinkable. Big Jim turned back to his books... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sweap the land clear of the debris. Clean out all the hidden corners. Call the rested souls to come forth again. Release the troubles spirits to roam and moan. Let the end come with out a whimper. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ye of evil deed will get thy reward. Let ye not forget and tary with the evil ones for thou shalt be grouped with them and their actions. Their evil works wilt smear onth thy cloth and ye shall reek with the rank ordour that coverth them. Get ye away far and leave the foul smell of evil actions behind ye. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Once again, the Order of Mystacia offers to exchange excess wagons for magic items. Any faction in the Jaca area which is interested in the offer please contact the Order with offers. eng35@slvaxa.umsl.edu (The Order of Mystacia) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The drizzle was falling continuously in the city. Around his feet, beads of rain splattered the hundreds of plastic laminated prayer cards which bore Hatred's smiling face. The back side carried a prayer to have malice infest one's life like a pustulent anal fissure. He kicked at them, the sodden artificial leaves stuck together and did not move. He hungered for a cigarette, but there were none left. Hadn't been for days. The war had cut off supplies of all but those sawdust filled Komarken filters, and the smell of them alone made him retch. He stood on the bridge and watched the rain roiling the water of the black polluted creek. The icy cold wind shot up his coat and caressed his spine, but he hardly felt it. He was alone now. When you think on it, we're all souls in isolation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rufus says: Entertaining is a way of life, noone deserves to die just because he've choosen a way of living which some powerful people don't like. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GRub is disappointed with his loyal servants. Month after month they just don't show up in his camp, even thoug they promised. He will still fight the powers who are after him, starting with gathering some new more loyal men. Beware of the giants! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do you feel for those elves and wonder why I do not. It is a simple matter. They do only what I tell them to Exactly that, nothing more, nothing less. Oh, if they could do something on thier own. Those stupid Elves! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ And the winds of change have stopped blowing. The entire continent has begun to accept our rule. The ever benevolent hand of the IUN will not abandon any of our faithful followers to those who would oppose us! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hullo ! My master's holiday are lasting more than expected. I long for him. That friend doesn't take care of me as much as I'd need. Working, working, ever working... :( The faction with the nicest number you can think of ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sir, It comes as no surprise that certain establishments are still selling magic items at prices which far outstrip their market value. This is a disgrace! When it costs merely the support of the mage involved, it is ludicrous to expect others to pay such gross prices. I propose that a boycott be started against any and all vendors who cannot justify their charges, what do you say? Make banners, make placards, make NOISE! Do not pay these ridiculous prices. Very concerned form Monzon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ** MONZON WOOD EXCHANGE ** Monzon Bulletin #21 Published by the Monzon Wood Exchange (289), thayer@uis.edu * More Land? Is the surface of Atlantis covered with land? The Crudbucket has run aground once again! It seems you cannot sail a full turn into unknown territory without discovering uninhabited lands. * Anstruther City Guard Wiped Out to a Man Last turn saw the elimination of yet another cities guards. The one hundred brave defenders of Anstruther died to a man defending the cities neutrality. Escape was denied even those who donned women's clothes as disguise after Renaissance troops were released in an orgy of rape and pillage. * Monzon Beat Another quiet month in the Monzon area. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Its another day in AC and the weather will be fine (I hope). Have you notice that the pigeons in AC are grouping into attack squads !!!!!! Are they gonna over run AC i have seen lots of them at the Geoff statue. You dont belive me !!!! Then you have never seea a kamikaze pigeon loaded with gunpower. Yesterday i say 4 special ultra squads attack Janet(they say that she was assassinated) but i dont belive that. report on the battle Janet dies and the pigeons lost 5 soldiers. thats all for now // high elves of kemdar PS ever seen a pigeon with a assult rifle????ds ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jaca is DOOMED. Repent for the end is near... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Up
