Out-Of-Game Discussion

It came out longer than expected, as the bishop once said......--Ginestre 06:20, 13 Sep 2004 (EDT)

There appears to be some problem - Andelphracian Lights were created by Andelphracia, who would have only been 5 years old in -325 EC. It's hard to think that she would have created the lights, and for them to have enough gestation to be the cause of a battle. --Morbus Iff 13:14, 13 Sep 2004 (EDT)


Hmm, I guess I can see that particular approach. Is that your intention, Gineste? There seems to be a lot of flexibility on a quick re-scan: these battles could still be going on, no master smilching technique has been agreed upon, and so on and so forth. --Morbus Iff 14:53, 13 Sep 2004 (EDT)

That's the way I see it; I wanted to link in, but not explicitly or overtly, a number of strands, whilst leaving space for others to digress upon... my strands are 1) a clear relation between andelphracian lights and altoxian bulbs; 2) our lack of information about so many things ancient, which urgently needs at least the framework of an explanation, and so conflict and iconoclasm sprang to mind (the Raking, etc.); and 3) the desire to see some discussion of the physical (ie scientific) structure of this world-what is the underlying unity? how does obith relate light to noise, if that's what it is? But principally it just sort of came out... Let me also add that I don't think the entry places any temporal reference between Andelphracian lights and the battle; but others might have further information on this score. --Ginestre 15:08, 13 Sep 2004 (EDT)

What's (fit 7 lines 1124-1127 in my published transcription of Dunby’s transliteration) mean? --Morbus Iff 19:21, 13 Sep 2004 (EDT)
