If this adventure with chain mail has taught me anything, 'tis that many of us here are having our first exposure to the internet, with all its amusements and pitfalls included. Thus, I thought it might be nice to introduce another 'getting to know each other' game that some of us might not know yet. This one won't involve pictures or ratings of attractiveness, not to worry.

This game is called 'two truths and a lie'. The premise is simple. You list three statements about yourself, two true and one false. Ideally they should all be similar levels of unbelievable. Then, other people respond to you to guess which one is the lie. We all learn a little about each other and have a bit of fun.

Here is nice, and has many amazing technologies Brodia doesn't have, but I do miss home.

[inspiteful]

Same. There's tons of stuff here that I don't think people back home could even really imagine, but I miss things like a real sea.

[tireurdelite]

Do you live near the coast?

[inspiteful]

I grew up by the waterfront back home, even.

[tireurdelite]

I'm sure it must be a beautiful place.

[inspiteful]

That's a first. Most people would say otherwise about the city.

But the view from the beach really is beautiful.

[tireurdelite]

Brodia has coastline, but the capital is in the heart of the mountains, so I don't get to see the ocean as much as I would like. I can't imagine it not being beautiful.

[inspiteful]

Well, the sea's definitely beautiful. As are the beaches.

[ The port city itself however, is...not, by most people's standards. ]

What's it like in the capital?

[tireurdelite]

Busy. There's always something happening in the city, and court is full of nobles from various houses lobbying for their own province to receive more benefits from the crown. I imagine it seems different to people living outside the castle.

[inspiteful]

[ He supposes some things apparently don't change no matter what world it is. ]

I can't say I've ever been in a castle.

[tireurdelite]

They're imposing on the inside too. Hard to relax in.

[inspiteful]

Do you ever get to relax, then?

[tireurdelite]

Not very often. Especially not recently, but hopefully soon.

[inspiteful]

Then I hope you get to relax a little more in the future.

[tireurdelite]

I hope so too. There's a lot of rebuilding that will need to be done, but after that... hopefully.
