"Did I do something wrong? I'm not trying to offend everyone, but I ... I suppose that Eve is, well," he hesitates a moment, "she's the most startling thing since I woke up here. Far more than suddenly having a sword of light and living on a planet of almost a trillion people."
Doc responds gently,
<!--coloro:#3333ff--><span style="color:#3333ff"><!--/coloro-->"Richard, I need to worry about the Ban when I use my powers, and I use the discipline to avoid it when that happens. No, to be totally fair there are things I can do which aren't Ban breaking. You, Rama, and Whisper are in similar or better situations."
"Eve breaks the Ban all the time. Her existence is forbidden, and that's not a trivial thing. A bit ago the Ban caught up to us and she started dying. I was nearby and halted time until the rules changed, but it was closer than I care to think. Whatever her equivalent of the discipline is, I think she has to maintain it all the time. Every second of every day, even while asleep. I suspect part of that discipline is that there are things she should not, or maybe even can not, think about.... and this would presumably include detailing how many rules she is breaking."
"So no, I don't think she's offended, but I also think that's a dangerous subject and we'd all be better off if you don't raise it subject again."<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--> <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I have seen this quality of post by all of you over the last month and this time I just have to say
HURRAH!! You are all doing a fantastic job in posting and keeping it flowing. This quality of posting is what keeps us interested and makes the game enjoyable to all.... Thanks all.
However, as far as this topic goes, as well as Smites Get even topic, they both will be wrapping up shortly so as to get us all on the same page and get the plot inserted neatly within. We will still have a freepost topic for you all to take part in and I look forward to that but it is rapidly approaching time to move on.
Thanks again all for the great posts and an extra hurrah for Rama and Richard for being able to jump right into the flow of things and post with such regularity.
