Any player can play an interrupt, if e has a story element card which is mentioned in the last segment played. (For instance, with my last segment one could play "thief" or "temple"...) Then that card is burned, and then it is eir turn to play eir own story element card. (Actually, I suppose I'm not sure if, in the current rules a)a player can interrupt emself, or b)if multiple interrupts can be called on a single play.) - -- - --Alfvaen(Web page: http://www.terranet.ab.ca/~aaron/) Song In My Head--Simon & Garfunkel:I Am A Rock Current Book--Jo Clayton:The Snares of Ibex "I can't come to bed!

The priest nodded vigorously. "Most sure, O High Priest. He fits the description perfectly. Even to the birthmark on his back, which he seems quite unaware of." Welecta nodded. "I always thought there was a bastard or two running around, and as I read the prophecy, they will satisfy the conditions perfectly. But just to be sure...do you know if he is married?" The priest blinked. "Married?" "He must be unmarried. If he has been...then he is of no use to us. The first thing you must do is find out." As the priest scurried away, Welecta considered the rest of his plan. The Princess was slowly being turned away from all the eligible suitors. Her romantic streak and headstrong nature made her all too easily controllable. This Stutim, with his romantic past, all that her parents would forbid her in a mate, would be irresistible to her. Now all that he needed, should the thief prove a bachelor, was to bring them together.
