**Meeting called between Kiley and diplomats on the voyage to Martokia**
I will do everything I can to help your people PrinceAlan...
We need brave people like yourself to
venture and find this land.
**I'm missing something here. We had a rod that will help us
find the fertile spot of Martokia. As far as I know other
than this initial meeting, the rod has not been mentioned. **

most of us have tried, but can not find
this land.
* Kiley nods
How does this rod work Prince Alan?
It will tell you when you come close to the
land within some distance
We aren't sure it was given to us by lady mastrel
And i got it from Blach who won it
fighting a dragon
* Kiley looks at LadyMastrel
Killed it puuuuuuurrrrrttttyyyyyyy good!
* Kiley looks to Blach
* Blach snarls and spits again
so the dragon's rod hmmm?
After all how would a dragon live for so many years!
so how do you know the rod will find this? the dragon told you?
What kind of dragon was it you killed Blach?
Dragon dead, just walk and have rod on you,
tell you somehow, shaman say
The rod will inform you of where it is by
glowing, that is what the warriors of justice have declared.
I see... thank you LadyMastrel for the information

**snip** Chlorine type gas fills the room
*Cryptic comment from Lady Mastrel about Blach's secret blade *

**fight with hellhouds**
their glare is very fierce and fire sprouts from
their mouth **etc. etc... Hellhouds defeated**
**Harpies in the hold are 'mysteriously' killed**
* PrinceAlan looks at lady mastrel and walks over
Lady Your machine, if there .... oh my...
* LadyMastrel gets up and walks over to the harpies and finds
the royal crest among them
* Cornasus comes out of the corner he was cowering in and
says, "Oh! They were atrocious! Those winged witches!"
* LadyMastrel finds the crest
This is the symbol of the prince of Maltokia
I don't know what wizardry or ally!
But he has ruined our water purifying machines!
what do you mean!
I have no such allies
* Cornasus weeps to Kiley , "First they taunted me while the
rest smashed the machinery, then they argued about who was
to eat my wretched body!"
* Kiley consoles Cornasus
I will give you my machine my lady
* PrinceAlan bows
A fitting apology.
It's okay... it was gnome machinery anyway.
* LadyMastrel looks at Kiley a bit perplexed
That machinery saves our lives.
we owe it.
How does a machine save lives?
A famine for food
* Cornasus cries "Then they turned upon each other and and
fought over my carcass ... then they vanished!"
It allows us to purify the swamp lands, by
the old wizards
no matter we must rest
* PrinceAlan bows again to lady mastrel and leaves as Blach
comes down in his true form
a machine lets you do this?
* Kiley looks skeptical
* Blach walks down and looks at his machinery
* Blach snarls
Too bad lady mastrel
I thought this rod was your savior?
* Mulka walks down hurrying
Oh my!
* Mulka sees the ruined machinery
Well I can repair this.
* Mulka turns to Kiley
In case you are wondering
this machine takes the ash soil of the land
I'm sorry Mulka... there seems to have been a few
problems below.
and turns it to ripe minerals, and deep soil
oh... how very interesting
* Blach grunts at the word swamp
