Lord Brits Roof top

As I read the LS's reporter say Samarian told her that you cannot recall to the top of Lord Brits castle, I must say that this info is false. If you're rune was marked above where the old EM blocked off the area in the chamber room then your rune will not work. This was not done by Casca. Although I do not like Casca (my own opinion which does not reflect what MT thinks), But we shouldnt blame him for things that he didnt do.

Ahh thanks Ceno!! I haven't tried my old runes yet. I know the castle itself you haven't been able to port into for some time, but the roof I wasn't sure of, as I use to port there quite a bit. Perhaps Samarian's runes are older and further back. With so many things going on we need to be most watchful and keep one another informed.

Here's how I read it, Mama Faith:

That stupid human, Samarian, used wrong book. Me not let many use good book!
Oh my gosh, Sara; you're brilliant! I didn't know you could speak Orc! From now on, I'm coming to you for translations since I'm just a "dumb hummie".

P.S. I hope it's warmer in your part of the state than it is on mine. If they had an emoticon with an icicle hanging out of it's nose? That'd be me. :sad3:

Mama Faith, all you need to do is ask Kurpur for the orc dictionary he had Samarian write. That will help as will exposure.....lots and lots of exposure. *smiles*

I don't really speak orc. I have found if I read it outloud, sometimes 5 or 6 times, some of the words will often fall into place, and then from there it's sort of a guessing game. You can just ask Kurpur about that ... I was at his Orc library the other day. Conversing with him reminded of me when I was in college and tutoring a deaf woman. I had no knowledge of American Sign Language, fortunately she reads lips and we did have a computer right there to type things out. I could always tell I had messed up trying to sign something to her as she would just rock the room with laughter. I think Kurpur was laughing the same way when I was trying to translate our conversation the other day. Oh, and Kurpur speaks much better human than I speak orc!

As for warmer, I don't know. Was 32 below last night, is barely up to 19 below now .. noonish. If it gets much colder, I'll have to find some socks for my feet.

Thank you WildStar and Sara. Ori and I will have to find this library you speak of. I've also found that by reading it over and over again, I can usually figure out what's being said but words like "rung", "mez" and "uz" totally befuddled me. I'm going to have to hang around Kurpur more so that I can become bilingual.

Honestly, how can you live in a place that cold? *Laughs*

It was fifty degrees and sunny with a slight breeze, and I was still commenting to my brother that its too bloody cold. I was watching the news earlier, and apparently the warm weather over here is displacing the cold air and causing some of the blizzards in the midwest.

...just wait until you meet my Ilythiri.

Vendui, Rivvil Ilharess. *Bows*

Sounds like a tropical heat wave to me. *looks out at the many inches of snow on the ground*

I'm not 100% on this translation, but this is what I come up with:

Hello there Mama Faith!

You help me when cub, so me give you Orcish Dictionary not tribune!*

Any that wants to see Orcish Library can talk to me or other orcs as them show lots. Lots of good Orcish books to read!

*Tribune = Orcs will demand tribune from anyone, this is a way to determine bravery or dominance. (Quoted from Orciez Diktunri )

Wow! That one had stumped me, Sara. I wondered if Kurpur was the same one I met one night while working the Skara Brae invasion. He was such a nice orc. I would love to have an Orc dictionary so I know what Kurpur and James are saying.
