With both really like it, although I think some of the story has clearly gone over Niklas's...

Some of the highlights of the vacation: Niklas and I went on a bike trek - by the end of the day he rode nearly 20 km on his little bike, most of it after a crash in which he took most of the skin off one knee. Watching Timothy trying to eat...

Beatrice, Niklas, Quina, and Rae are here. -------------------------------------------------------[ Exits: N S W X1 ]---- Beatrice and the land forces have been massing all through pre-dawn and the early hours...
The Setting: A brief scene run first by Albertus and then taken over by Niklas. A small group led by Knight Captain Taleyn who's mission was to deliver a prisoner to Fort Kolvir for interrogation. Taleyn addresses Pwyll and Zane, "Will you gentlemen please accompany me to Mount Kolvir, where we will take the prisoner to be interrogated?" Pwyll nods, "I'd be delighted to." "I'm having the prisoner...
...were right. It took time but I no longer feel Mikhaila haunting my dreams or her claws in my heart. With your permission and that of Father's, I wish to bring visitors to our home. There is Nia and Niklas of who I have spoken before but then there is she, Lilith. I have much to tell you about her but do not know where to begin. She is only part-Weir; her father belongs to a Great House in Amber....

She is in the middle of those armored Weir, wolves in sheep's clothing. Niklasstands at the head of what few Weir that are not armored. Oddly they all seem to have something in common... they're the ones like Niklas. The barbarians. Maybe there just wasn't armor big enough...
