I think Brian T's turn to pg 10, provides the setup to conclude this story.

I don't know if I will be able to do this before Thursday or so. If someone else would like to write the conclusion, and that's ok with everyone, I would be ok with that as well.

Absolutely amazing sword and sorcery game! Probably the best on the market! I have this and it has great solo rules included as well as being able to play with groups. Definitely pick this up!

Hehe, no.
If my terrible typing is an indication I lack the manual dexterity to even try...

I used to have a gimmick deck, with many fake cards, marked backs etc.
The best tricks I used to know were math tricks, i.e. I prepared a normal deck in a certain way in advance and I controlled the outcome of the shuffling to get a particular result, which worked reliably thanks to math.
But the fake cards were great too:

I have a mentalist trick I like to play every now and then.

Feel free to play along.

Pick a number, any number. (you are going to be doing some math, so probably do not want to pick anything outrageous, but any number will do)
Mulitply that number by 9.
Add the digits of that number to make a new number. Ex. if your new number is 21, add the 2 and 1 to make 3. if your new number is still multi-digit, continue adding until you get down to one digit. Ex. first new number is 87, 8+7 = 15. Then 1+5=6.
Once you are down to one digit, subject 5 from that digit.
With your new number, equate it to a letter of the alphabet in numerical order (ex. 1=A, 2=B, 3=C, 4=D, etc.

Think of the first countrycomes to your mind that begins with that letter.

Look at the second letter in that country name. Think of the first animal that comes to your mind that begins with that letter.

Think of the color of that animal.

Is your color: [o]grey[/o]?
Is your animal: an [o]elephant[/o]?
If your country: [o]Denmark[/o]?

Thank you for playing!
