STORYLINE-WL
Tuesday night in the Landing – A Problem Pyles Up. Pylasar rolled into town. Literally: he was in a purple barrel. He seemed to be lost in another time as he discussed Rachel (Raznel). Regaining his presence of mind, he fielded more questions about Raznel from Adventurers. The summary, highlights, and log from Miss Leafi are at the wiki: https://gswiki.play.net/Witchful_Thinking_-_5119-07-02_-_A_Problem_Pyles_Up

REPOspotlight
A new script was placed on the repository to help players attending KST called kstwatch.lic. This script is designed to capture all of Kenstrom’s monsterbold messages and dialogue, and echo them into the speech window. This should make it easier for players to follow along in the crowds. What a GREAT idea, thanks Claudaro! ;repository info kstwatch
