Monks Rush In

It pains me to say that we have become quite unpopular in Delros of late. The minstrels have begun to sing unpleasant songs about treacherous half-orcs and short-legged paladins, with a gusto that suggests some sort of sponsorship, and unfortunately association with Meyv and Neil has tarnished the reputations even of those of us not involved in the events that would appear to have provoked this business.

NEIL: "People are talking about US!"

Also, the story of my unfortunate extinction of a couple of species of dinosaur has been doing the rounds - I was required to tell it as part of my revised application for membership to the Order of Sensation, as a substitute for something I point-blank refused to do - and despite the fact that this happened back when floppy hats were in fashion, if my readers remember back that far, and was accidental, and one of them wasn't *completely* extinct when I left it, some small tinge of embarrassment remains.
