Insiration/Quote for the Month

"One Way Or Another" by Blondie

One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meetcha, I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha
I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all down
I'll see who's around

One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'll getcha, I'll getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
One day, maybe next week
I'm gonna meetcha, I'll meetcha

And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hanging out

One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip, a slip of the lip or another
I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya, I'll trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya trick ya trick ya trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip

I'll walk down the mall
Stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all
Find out who ya call
Lead you to the supermarket checkout
Some specials and rat food, get lost in the crowd

One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who ya call)
[repeat until fade]

Game Summary

Note that this summary has been written by Margaret L. and reflects her understanding of the game.

"This day had many duties for the fae and other super powered beings of Blooming Valley to perform. First, there was the matter of a memorial service for Barone Gabrilel Moonstar ap Beaumayne, who's mortal body lay in a coma, devoid of his fae mein. Second, oaths needed to be sworn to Count William Fletcher of Rolling Hills, and third, the mystery of the dust needed to be shared as many minds can solve a mystery better than one mind alone.

The day began with Count Fletcher entering through the trods. He spoke with all in quiet conversation. Then Branwen lead a beautiful memorial service to Baron Moonstar and even sang in a lovely voice "In The Arms of the Angels." Several made speeches to honor Moonstar including Doyle, Llewellyn, Elphaba, Eleanor, Spirit-Talker, and of course Branwen.

Count Fletcher then met with people privately for discussion and oath taking.

Many citizens of Blooming Valley gathered and discussed what they had learned about the dust. It was determined that the dust was pervasive throughout Blooming Valley and the area considered the 2 mile fringe. If the dust was brought out of the city, it would simply travel back to the city. Within Blooming Valley the dust was strongest around places of power and the city's ley lines. Of note, it seems that those in Blooming Valley were breathing in the dust. However the dust was not touching the missing Baroness's hidden library.

At that point a cat pooka entered names Mina. She apparently had killed the assassin who shot Baron Moonstar and was identified by Branwen and Doyle. Branwen, Doyle, and Victoria went to question the pooka. It was later revealed that she could find a key to the library and knew of a ritual to get into the library. This informatin will be passed to to those in higher position in the kingdom for consideration

Investigation into the library has commenced with information about the library and the dust being sent to those higher up for study. Time is of the essence as the ritual for opening the library supposedly needs to happen on Summer Solstice."
