**Meeting called between Kiley and diplomats on the voyage to Martokia**<br>
<Kiley> I will do everything I can to help your people 
  PrinceAlan...<br>
<PrinceAlan> We need brave people like yourself to <br>
  venture and find this land.  <br>

**I'm missing something here.  We had a rod that will help us <br>find the fertile spot of Martokia.  As far as I know other <br>than this initial meeting, the rod has not been mentioned. **
<br><br>
<PrinceAlan> most of us have tried, but can not find <br>
  this land.<br>
* Kiley nods<br>
<Kiley> How does this rod work Prince Alan?<br>
<PrinceAlan> It will tell you when you come close to the <br>
  land within some distance<br>
<PrinceAlan> We aren't sure it was given to us by lady 
  mastrel<br>
<LadyMastrel> And i got it from Blach who won it <br>
  fighting a dragon<br>
* Kiley looks at LadyMastrel<br>
<Blach> Killed it puuuuuuurrrrrttttyyyyyyy good!<br>
* Kiley looks to Blach<br>
* Blach snarls and spits again<br>
<Kiley> so the dragon's rod hmmm?<br>
<PrinceAlan> After all how would a dragon live for so 
  many years!<br>
<Kiley> so how do you know the rod will find this? the dragon 
  told you?<br>
<Kiley> What kind of dragon was it you killed Blach?<br>
<Blach> Dragon dead, just walk and have rod on you, <br>
  tell you somehow, shaman say<br>
<LadyMastrel> The rod will inform you of where it is by <br>
  glowing, that is what the warriors of justice have 
  declared.<br>
<Kiley> I see... thank you LadyMastrel for the information <br><br>

**snip**   Chlorine type gas fills the room<br>
*Cryptic comment from Lady Mastrel about Blach's secret blade * <br><br>

**fight with hellhouds**<br>
<Flytail> their glare is very fierce and fire sprouts from <br>
  their mouth **etc. etc... Hellhouds defeated**<br>
**Harpies in the hold are 'mysteriously' killed**<br>
* PrinceAlan looks at lady mastrel and walks over<br>
<PrinceAlan> Lady Your machine, if there .... oh my...<br>
* LadyMastrel gets up and walks over to the harpies and finds <br>
  the royal crest among them<br>
* Cornasus comes out of the corner he was cowering in and <br>
  says, "Oh! They were atrocious! Those winged witches!"<br>
* LadyMastrel finds the crest<br>
<LadyMastrel> This is the symbol of the prince of Maltokia<br>
<LadyMastrel> I don't know what wizardry or ally!<br>
<LadyMastrel> But he has ruined our water purifying machines!<br>
<PrinceAlan> what do you mean!<br>
<PrinceAlan> I have no such allies<br>
* Cornasus weeps to Kiley , "First they taunted me while the<br> 
  rest smashed the machinery, then they argued about who was <br>
  to eat my wretched body!"<br>
* Kiley consoles Cornasus<br>
<PrinceAlan> I will give you my machine my lady<br>
* PrinceAlan bows<br>
<LadyMastrel> A fitting apology.<br>
<Kiley> It's okay... it was gnome machinery anyway.<br>
* LadyMastrel looks at Kiley a bit perplexed<br>
<LadyMastrel> That machinery saves our lives.<br>
<LadyMastrel> we owe it.<br>
<Kiley> How does a machine save lives?<br>
<PrinceAlan> A famine for food<br>
* Cornasus cries "Then they turned upon each other and and <br>
  fought over my carcass ... then they vanished!"<br>
<PrinceAlan> It allows us to purify the swamp lands, by <br>
  the old wizards<br>
<PrinceAlan> no matter we must rest<br>
* PrinceAlan bows again to lady mastrel and leaves as Blach <br>
  comes down in his true form<br>
<Kiley> a machine lets you do this?  <br>
* Kiley looks skeptical<br>
* Blach walks down and looks at his machinery<br>
* Blach snarls<br>
<Blach> Too bad lady mastrel<br>
<Kiley> I thought this rod was your savior?<br>
* Mulka walks down hurrying<br>
<Mulka> Oh my!<br>
* Mulka sees the ruined machinery<br>
<Mulka> Well I can repair this.<br>
* Mulka turns to Kiley<br>
<Mulka> In case you are wondering<br>
<Mulka> this machine takes the ash soil of the land<br>
<Kiley> I'm sorry Mulka... there seems to have been a few <br>
  problems below.<br>
<Mulka> and turns it to ripe minerals, and deep soil<br>
<Kiley> oh... how very interesting<br>
* Blach grunts at the word swamp<br>
