All: I apologize to the players and to the AD&D echo for the lateness of two consecutive turns. If all goes well, this trend will not continue. As the players, at least, must have noticed by now, this turn has been cut short. I thought it only right to give _something_ to the FidoNet echo. Turn 26, with luck, should be out in a week, but just in case it's delayed for some reason, it's nice to have this one around.

Since you've been hiding in shadows a lot, it makes sense to put at
