This is the 'closest left'-side of the amphitheater. The side on the right is called 'closer right', but this one is the closest still. The hall itself is more or less the size of 500 squaremeters. Here are a number of seats on which the audience is meant to be seated while watching shows, acts and other presentations. You are just right before the platform and can see to it very well. It seems to be floored with some kind of parquet. Obvious exits are: n, e, s and se. ten big wooden mugs six small barrels of pixie-ale a serving of 12 pieces of chicken a serving of 8 small cookies a serving of 10 slices of brown bread a serving of 4 chunks of ham four mugs (empty) a serving of 3 rolls of bread a serving of 5 white breads Tarken Kalia the Human M3RCH4NT Lozlo the Dwarf {Wannabe Merchant} Jeskko Pupunen the Human poks boredly < pu-pu > Eressa Evergreen the Calico Catfolk Kimahri Par-Salion the Gnoll Kops Poks the grey Elf huggaileva hippie The Easter Bunny is hopping around here Gore the Archwizard Era of idling A slender orange cone, supposedly Darol Qurp Blitzkrieg the Leech is the octave doctor Caesar Salaatti the Duck *perseesseen* Jacen Solo-Ravensflyte the Wolfman SIEGE TANK The lights dim. A performance is about to begin. The lights get brighter. The performance is over. Tarken is absolutely stunned and amazed and can only say 'Wow...'. You clap. Tarken says 'that was fast.' Kops says 'Oh', with a blank look on its face. Lozlo grumbles '2nd lowest bmight in guild :(.' Large muddy tortoise shouts 'I butchered Smash for breakfast, who's up for dinner?' Tarken says 'yes lozlo you suck.' You are standing on the platform. It is retreaded with some kind of parquet, made of lacquered wood. This is where you can perform your arts and others in the amphitheater before you will see and hear. Behind you is nothing but a screening blue curtain. A list of instructions lies on the floor. Obvious exits are: s and se. Lord Wainamoinen, the chief bard of Kalevala Hannu Karpo, defender of just Lozlo looks at stage. The lights dim. A performance is about to begin. %Hannu_Karpo says 'Good evening, you are here with me witnessing something' %Hannu_Karpo says 'unspeakable, so vile and horrid, that you couldn't have' You feel like Kiesi healed you a bit.

Wainamoinen...' %Hannu_Karpo says 'At first, could you tell me shortly what is happening' %Hannu_Karpo says 'in your kingdom, if I may say so?' %Lord_Wainamoinen takes deep breath and starts to speak slowly but firmly. Miss Kitty (mossad+): mokasin yhen linenki %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'Well, it all begun nine years ago... Through some' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'mysterious portal, which appeared at the edge of our village,' Tarken says 'damn.' Kimahri goes 'Shhhhh!'. Kops stumbles and nearly falls down. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'came group of adventurers which got past our' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'villages defences by killing everyone on sight.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'During each attack I was at my prosperous valley,' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'standing helpless.' %Lord_Wainamoinen takes a deep breath. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'Then they found out weaknesses from two of my loyalest henchmen.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'First one, the gatekeeper, passed any angelic murderer through' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'gates to the village, the heart of my land.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'And bit further was my headmaster, that hungry munchkin!' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'He sang our secrets like hummingbird on speed to those savage ravagers!' %Hannu_Karpo says 'So they finally found you? What happened?' %Lord_Wainamoinen shivers as dry tears run through the canyons of age on his tanned cheeks. Info: Juggelo enters the game.

Info: Gorge goes link dead. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'The story is tragic and quite propably known to you.' Kimahri nods his head, yeah, ok. Kimahri left the game. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'As well you know that then came time of prosperity,' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'which lasted almost 1300 years. We lived in paradise,' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'but then it all begun from the start. The vain death of' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'Lemminkäinen and the misfortune lovestory of Ilmarinen.' %Lord_Wainamoinen shouts 'Everything, again and again!' %Hannu_Karpo hmms for a moment. %Hannu_Karpo says 'Like if some gods would have played with your reality?' %Hannu_Karpo says 'How did you solve what is happening?' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'We used services of our bardic choir to get information' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'from higher ones, and all we got was one name:' Chorale [sales]: +5dex alch ring FRESH now ale price mb140k :D %Lord_Wainamoinen says '"Elias Lönnrot".

Please continue...' %Lord_Wainamoinen thinks briefly. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'Then everything came stable for awhile, only occasionally' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'we had to relive our past again. But after three times' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'sixty years had passed, the hell broke loose.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'These nine men groups of "good" adventurers.

The great ritual.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'I succeeded to get my message to the great ones.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'But what did they understand about my life.' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'Numerous times adventurers just came looked at me and left' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'me alone, just because I was wearing some iron ring and' %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'shiny breastplate.' Info: Kitania is unidle. Lozlo leaves east. %Lord_Wainamoinen says 'But after gods "helped" us, they didn't see anymore what' You hear the convent bells chime 'DINGG!
