A tip my of hat to all of you for the last seven years. Thank you for the memories and the lessons learned, the tearful scenes and sudden, milk-through-the-nose laughs. I can't wait to see what new frontiers ex-Tazzies will explore next!

The game was often called Jacks , or Threes , or any of a dozen other names...and it was little more than a mind-numbingly simple way for several simple-minded persons to gather together and redistribute their wealth (in a very simple way). Like most dice games (with the possible exception of Liar's...

At the end of the day, there was always betrayal. Not perhaps betrayal against this character, but betrayal against this woman he knew. If she got... reticent with any deal they cut, well...Linc had the moral destitution (as well as the calibre of metal) to take matters into his own hands. Indeed, h...

A ton of gold. Instantly, every man-jack at the table calculated what that would mean, even if it were only day-dreaming. five hundred thousand crowns, by Western weight, pondered Linc. About fifteen hundred crowns per share, considered the orc quartermaster. Exchanging a glance, they tabulated the...

Any curiosity about the cuisine at Nether's Gate didn't last very long. Fish . Virtually every meal...with no exceptions...was harvested from the sea, and while a few small farming villages lived upon the Isle of Rande, they could never produce enough to satisfy a more diverse diet for the growing t...

There was never really any doubt, anyway. Oh, certainly it was the custom to haggle over details...but custom always gave way to practicality, and the fundamental truth was that the merchant needed to eat...and no one else had demonstrated any interest in this particular map. Two circlets it was...a...

If Link had any strong opinions about Linasis, he didn't reveal them to Zeke . Of course, he did have strong opinions regarding the adhiel captain of the Roark's Revenge , but he was careful not to reveal them. It was one thing to gather up a crew using past successes, sales pitching, and outright l...

The only real certainty Link had was that Linasis had already snapped up all the good hands ashore. Linasis had a reputation to overcome, but he could still hire hands...and now that Roark's Revenge was ready to sail (assuming she could be pulled clear of the strand), it seemed likely that Nether's ...

One of the pair of old men (the one missing a leg) raised his weather-beaten face to cast a shrewd scowl at Marcello . He was chewing something ...most likely tobacco...and his distinct lack of teeth made that effort almost painful to watch as his bottom jaw worked furiously to gum the lump of tarry...

There were many places in Tazlure where one might purchase...well... things , and in virtually all cases, what was typically available depended heavily upon the location of the market. Glassware and clocks were commonplace in World's Mouth markets...fine horses, tapestries, and breath-taking woodwor...

The Nettes (Chyril 27, TradeTide)
While the bulk of the shipping for Nether's Gate ports at Rande's Landing on the eastern shores of the isle, the Nets caters to a more restricted type of sailing vessel and sees far less activity. Home to Nether's Gate's vast population of fishermen and pilots, all manner of small craft can be seen ...

It was a curious thing, but the fishermen didn't entirely fight over Marcello 's rather handsome offer. One did accept, though, taking up the coin and shouldering the chest in a proper, seaman-like manner. He disappeared towards the stairs, leaving his mates...one of whom considered Marcello more ca...

The brief...and somewhat violent...interlude in the above chamber provided some amusement for the patrons below, and brought many to attend to the woman's sea chest. Most sailors had a sea chest...she had been no different...and hers had already been thrown open and inspected. Few took any great int...

Estella was only vaguely aware that the scene behind her had quickly deteriorated into the kind of event that could only be considered common in Nether's Gate. The island lacked a ruler, guards, laws, or any kind of Social Protection save the kind of structure built by Force of Arms alone. This mea...

Indeed, Zeke 's wound finally stopped bleeding quite so badly, dulling to a slow trickle at best. Sadly, a healthy dose of blood made it to the buccaneer's shirt, stains that most likely wouldn't come out without a great deal of effort and soaking (a rather common stain in Nether's Gate, all told). ...
