Rituals and . . .
« on: February 28, 2011, 10:52:22 PM »

Out of a small territory not far from the Bazaar, an 8 and a half foot tall tree emerges with a purpose.  His branches are scraggly, more bare than usual in the winter chill, but a number of leaves still cling tenaciously.  A single thick vine wraps around his large spiky trunk, worn somewhere between a belt and a bandoleer.  A locket glints from deep within his branches.  His roots twist upon the ground, somehow propelling him forward despite the uneven ground. 

He approaches a small standing bulletin in the Bazaar, looking at it distrustfully.  He digs in a small crystal ball out of his branches, then peers about for an eye or camera or face to talk to.  Finding none, he holds the crystal ball up to the sign, and says, "Broadcast this, please."  A small moving image plays inside the ball.

An artificial female voice replies back.  "I am sorry Felegro, but your recording will have to be analyzed, and converted for proper signal broadcasting.  Will you permit your copy to be sent to Paladin's broadcasting center?"

Felegro looks at the sign, clearly frustrated already.  "Yeah," he says to it, "But no editing."  He turns away, and barely audible is the phrase, "Bloody red tape politician technology...."
