      Sir, you have them all on the hilt of the sword.
      How will it work for them
      and the surprise if someone else grabs it.
      Will only the two of them hold it?
      Are they physically strong enough or
      is it symbolic?

      Wow, thanks! I did not expect that you would use it.
      It actually came from a old video game from the 80’s,
      part of the end cut scene. I paraphrased it a bit. No,
      I can’t remember what RPG it was, but it was a good one.
      But it had dragon riders in it.
      Damn, it’s on the tip of my tongue….

        there is a subreddit dedicated to finding lost games

          Not really, it was a SNES game. I might have in my
          rom collection for my emulators. It was 2nd gen game,
          they had double the ram/rom than 1st gen,
          which was still pretty low.
          I’m 64 and good game play is not something I can do anymore

            I am 60 right now, and I play games at easiest settings,
            then at least I can dream of completing some levels.
            I love sim racing, but whenever I try to drive around the
            Nordschleife with anything more than an MX5 or a gr86,
            I am glad to not crash before half the lap.

              I have to take a medication for a type of arthritis that destroys
              the joints, it’s similar to rheumatoid but more damaging.
              There’s been times when a simple left click sends my mouse
              off the back of the desk tray. The joint locks and when it
              lets go it’s like a slingshot. Damned annoying…

    Naadir means ‘Dear’ or to find rare love.
    or the good in some one…
    Rohaan means ‘Compassion’ …
    Minha means ‘blessing’ or to bless…
    Inayat means ‘kindness’.

    I was a bit surprised at the group of “Angels”, but it makes sense.
    I just hope some a-hole doesn’t come out and tries to shoot Terysa,
    although, if they were to try that and say, one her guards
    shoots back with a bolt of lighting, (a charged spear) killing the
    idiot, while Terysa shrugs it off, it would hit them HARD.
    “She IS an angel sent from Allah!”
    Teresa is an angel, but which kind depends on YOU. Love, or
    DEATH, it’s their choice…

    I had a thought, it came from a news clip I watched after
    ship 5’s launch, they were talking about the amount of
    junk orbiting the planet. the shear amount of rare-earth
    metals and gear is in the billions! The Empire no doubt
    harvested that as well as the tech from foreign satellites.

    With Musk’s rocket and a few tugs built, the USA could
    rake a huge amount of resources that way, more than
    enough to cover the costs. Plus it would make the space
    around Earth safer to launch through and keep any
    manned satellites safe.
    (they said something like 13 billion)
    (Cue the screaming matches at the UN)

    • Petercat
      October 19, 2024, 03:53 | # | Reply

      The UN would probably claim abandoned property rights
      and demand that Musk turn all proceeds over to them.
      After he had salvaged them all, of course.

        What?! You (UN) want what I went up and
        brought back down on my own?!
        Not only no, but Hell No!
        You want it, YOU go up and get it!
        And NO, you’re NOT “renting” my rockets
        to do it. Build your own.
        Oh,and don’t forget the land for a launch site.

        Actually, it’s salvage, so he would have full rights, most of
        the noise would be over the “stolen tech” from the satellites.
        “Those satellites have our (insert stupid thoughts) tech and
        you have no right to steal it!” To that I say so why didn’t
        you put a self-destruct on them?

      “No Right of Salvage.!” UN agreed that while in space,
      no “identifiable” debris or nonfunctional satellite is allowed.
      by any other agency… IE: Musk cannot touch NASA junk.
      AND IF foreign junk hit your house,,, your Gov, has to
      sue the other Gov, in your name.!

          unlike the sea, not everyone can get/build a craft to get space.
          sell back… they claim it’s worth more than the national treasure,
          and you have to pay it.
          farming ,, when they brought back mineral samples from a rock
          as a test,. the prices dropped.!

            No doubt, that many minerals that “easy” to get at (no direct human
            contact) would be easy money for any space mining operation.
            it would effect both the mining industry AND the foundries on Earth.
            It won’t happen over-night, so no real impact on the economy. Sure,
            the miners will have to work/learn new machines and how to function
            in a micro-gravity situation, but with the (almost) endless supply
            of raw ores and the new alloys this will create, everything will
            balloon in just a few decades.

      TV and movies paint a dark picture of their lives,
      if you were to look at the shanty towns of the
      homeless in some areas, it would look the same
      as you’re thinking. Or the streets of any run-down
      ghetto’s in any major city, Gary was like that in

    If this is Britain, then great presentation of a row of
    terraced houses – although it must be from an
    area that was moderately affluent when it was built,
    given every house has a bay window.
    The police uniform is rather distinctively American,
    to my eyes: I can accept the casual firearm as fallout
    from the Apocalypse, but the rest of it doesn’t seem to
    have any throwbacks to the current British police equipment

    I had a thought, basically the Empire are using their beliefs
    and lore to convince those people that not only is the Empire
    good, but it cares for people. While it’s a bit of a lie, this
    will (hopefully) bore through the HUGE amount of lies and
    misquotes those (now dead) leaders have been spewing
    on the people to get them to obey without question.
    The extremists are using obscure passages and misquotes
    to get their people to just take over and to follow without
    question some tired old ideology from centuries past.
    Genocide is wrong and bad, no tired old book can make
    excuses for it. The Empire has been fighting everything from
    raiders to now entire planets, and they don’t want to, if
    this works, it’s bloodless.

    The wife turned on the TV and it was tuned to ABC, the George

    A bit of a shame the timing didn’t work out a little differently. The last
    4 panels from the last installment and the first 4 from this one would
    have been perfect for the Flight of the Valkyrie.

    “Six originals”, five winged horses and Terysa. I assume the other 4

    Well it’s happened, Jasmine officially weighs just under 16 lbs!
    So, I’m going to get an auto-feeder and try to get her pudgy
    belly under some control. Only nice thing is she’ll let you rub
    her belly for about 10 seconds before she attacks. Before the
    transgression was instantly handled by her highness. So she’s
    gone from mean Miral to Mavia? Hmmm…

        She doesn’t like being picked up, I guess it scares her.
        But when I changed the bed sheets, (of course she wanted
        to lay on the bed) I had to pick her up to move her
        and I was shocked how heavy she was. Plus when I
        did, her belly went “squish.” So diet change and metered
        feed amounts, we were using a gravity feeder. It’s
        common with strays, they lived so long barely able to
        find food, that having a seemingly endless supply is
        like heaven and they over-eat. Big cats in zoos are the same.

    I went and voted, did some grocery shopping, had dinner,
    and ran the clock out.
    I’m sore and tired after unloading a van full of groceries.
    I did stow the refrigerated and frozen stuff.
    But my living room is full of groceries.
    I’ll put them away later.
    Unless I eat them before I get around to it. It happens.
    On a good note,
    I had seven women at the polling places laughing.

    I am curious as to how the sword was rigged so the hilt felt cold to one
    hand and warm to the other when the hands were side by side if not
    touching. Warming and cooling coils under the surface? A bit of stage
    magic could enable Terysa to make sure each kid grasped the desired
    portion of the hilt. But that’s going to be hard to maintain as they draw it.
