Out of nowhere, Alan’s reached me through some odd back-channel link that he won’t divulge (which is probably a good thing, since I’m rather mad at him).
His message, in full, reads:
Shorah Tim,
I heard about the second closing of the Cavern; My sympathies go out to you, as I know it was your want to see people down there again. I’m also hearing some odd scuttlebutt that I personally don’t believe, but perhaps it will be sorted out in time for your next appearance as Guardsman.
Anyway, my main reason to contact you was about where you’ve apparently ‘moved on’ to. Though I’ve heard good things about Tyr (and GoMa), you don’t have the money or the time to invest. I’ve taken the liberty to contact your family - you certainly haven’t - and confirmed this, so you can’t wiggle (or waffle, or whatever its called) about it.
I suggest you track down the GoW and get your butt back into that Pahts shell of yours. You’ll be doing both yourself and your wallet a favor. Don’t put yourself down the road I followed for so long; That way madness lay (for now)…
Obviously, I’m not going to tell you where I’ve been or what I’m doing nowadays (not until you’ve calmed down from this rather direct letter), but I will say that things have been well and occasionally I run into friends of yours.
Best of luck to you, and enjoy your upcoming vacation,
Alan Kiesler
Can’t believe he sent that. However, he’s right. I’ll be pulling up the Guard Outpost in Tyr, but have plans to re-locate it into its own Age.
Materials are already being collected, with the help of a supplier who owes me big-time (and who also knows where the Pahts folks are at nowadays).
–TSK
EDIT - A thought occurred to me; Is Alan trying to provoke me into action due to the ‘recent scuttlebutt’ he alluded to? Dunno, but will need to keep a better watch in the appropriate channels…
