Don't be silly..." </BLOCKQUOTE> <BR> From Regent Gerard's decree: <BLOCKQUOTE> ...All the scions of Amber must present themselves to King Random when he returns. This means you will have to stay in the castle for as long as he is away. Delays will indicate you have something to hide. I remind you all of the oath of allegiance you made to the King, whose explicit orders I follow now... </BLOCKQUOTE> <BR> From a letter to Regent Gerard: <BLOCKQUOTE> ...I'm trusting you because I think you're the only one in the entire family who <I>can</I> be trusted. If this is what becomes of being King of Amber, I'm ready to abdicate and throw the crown to the fishes in Rebma. <P> Doubtless the others will want to know the why and where and when of everything...please don't tell them. I strongly suspect that it's one of them, anyway. Keep an eye on them--all of them. Remember, this is for Vialle. Or whatever pipsqueak fragment of fondness you might have for your little bro. <P> I will return as quickly as I can. <P> My eternal thanks, <BR> Random <BR> King of Amber and all that bull <P> P.S. If it all works out, through some miracle or other of the Unicorn...we could name him Gerault or Geran or something like that. Just a thought. </BLOCKQUOTE> <P> <HR> <P> Clockwise Shadows is an Amber PBEM--that is, based on the Amber Chronicles by Roger Zelazny and Erick Wujcik's <U>Amber Diceless Roleplaying</U>, out from Phage Press. The majority is still in my brain, unfortunately, but sooner or later I'll get all the necessary information up. <P> <A TARGET="_parent" HREF="info.htm">Basic info about Clockwise Shadows</A> <P> <A HREF TARGET="_parent" ="proc.htm">About the playing procedures I'm going to use</A> <P> <HR> <P> <CENTER> Last updated on January 23, 1998 by <A HREF="mailto:liyet@bigfoot.com">Yune Kyung Lee</A>. </CENTER> </BODY>
