Yeah, it's a heck of a hit.

You were warned, sort of:
Zhym wrote:"In the outer planes, much will change," she continues. "You three"—she points to Malibran, Xale, and Hallagad—"will find yourselves cut off from your gods, perhaps for the first time in your lives. The spells, prayers, and Mysteries you receive directly from your gods will be withheld from you. The accounts of priests in Hell also tell of a diminishing of spell power and retention. Conserve your higher-level spells carefully, for you may have no way to obtain more while you are away."
I guess that doesn't tell you that you'll lose entire levels of spells, though.

I'm going to stop reporting times in the status. None of you have watches, and it's not like any of you know how to tell time in the lower planes.

Today's weather: cloudy, with a chance of brimstone through late afternoon. Tonight: burning hail mixed with frogs until early morning.

Why are we snooping around Emirikol's boat? I feel like we're looking in the medicine cabinets while visiting a friend's house. :)

My posting rate will also drop this weekend, and should resume to normal by Tuesday. Have a good weekend, everyone.

In case we have to retreat from the open, vulnerable area of the deck.

I don't see anything wrong with exploring the boat, as long as nothing is damaged or taken.
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Sorry about the delay again.

The description of the scenery was inspired partly by this passage from one of my favorite Terry Pratchett books, Small Gods:
YOU HAVE PERHAPS HEARD THE PHRASE THAT HELL IS OTHER PEOPLE?

"Yes. Yes, of course."

Death nodded. IN TIME, he said, YOU WILL LEARN THAT IT IS WRONG.
And now I'm realizing that I need to re-read Faust Eric for some inspirational material.
