Hmmm... mental note: do NOT disturb her while she is working.

BTW, no key for the car... that's because it was a

Great updates Leech, adore the Castle!

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Ooo, the glimpses of the RHW look great. The terraced look is awesome too (hmm, I seem to be feeling a bit of deja vu here, though). Anyways, here's looking forward to Stage 2 of the Yintar Yantar Rally! Nice work, and interesting plot developments, too! I'll be back for more.

[Zelgadis 638]

A base of operations, eh? Big question, I suppose, is what is she working on? Probably not teddy bears...

On the Move

October 2nd, 0165AL (2021)

Niwärsni Dolinluke, Dolinluke, Imnatazhüthken

Lt. Black, Laur, and Major Zargolf were currently examining part of the Niwärsni Dolinluke, to make sure that it was safe for the summit that would be occurring in two days for the formation of the Myon Union.

Lt. Black: Where is Brad and Brian?

Major Zargolf: Brian's got time off today, so he's probably at home, but I don't know where Brad is, he was supposed to come.

 Laur: Did he run into a traffic problem somewhere?

Major Zargolf: Possibly.

Lt. Black walked over to scan the windows of the room, and looked out at the lake, which was crowded with buildings on piers and boats.

Lt. Black: Not sure how everyone avoids running into anything out there...

 Laur: Huh?

Lt. Black: On the lake.

 Laur: Oh.

Lt. Black: All clear here.

Major Zargolf: On to the next room.

The Narya RDPM

 Lauren: It seems there is an incoming holographic communication from Myon.

Gen. Yelslew: On screen.

A humming sound announced the opening of the communication, as a view of the Myon RDPM appeared in the holographic display. As soon as the view had totally materialized, the humming got quieter, until it was impossible to hear.

Sergeant Varmon: There has been an unauthorized short range transportation detected near Dolinluke. But it isn't Myonian.

 RA Laura: What type is it, then?

Sergeant Varmon: It doesn't match any recorded transporter type, but it is very similar to what the signal of a Dlorwani or Blitkarni transporter would be if modified for point to point transportation.

 Lauren: Interesting.

Gen. Yelslew: Can you determine the destination?

Sergeant Varmon: It appears to be somewhere in the East Granur Peninsula, in the Kingdom of Glump. Hold on, I'm picking up Brad's transmitter there, too...

Gen. Yelslew: Can you get a lock?

Sergeant Varmon: No, its too distorted, wherever he is must be shielded.

To be continued...

Yintar-Yanar

Nick: It's now time for stage 2 of the Yanar Mountain Rally--

Nikki: --which is a lot hiller than stage 1.

Nick: Stage 2 starts out at the same place stage 1 ends, with a short run though town, the a left turn back the way stage 1 came from.

Nikki: Once it reaches the first intersection there is a right turn to the north, onto a relatively straight road.

Nick: Well, it's relatively straight right here at least.

Nikki: Not so much just a little further to the north and past the farms.

Nick: Watch out for the hairpin turns.

Nikki: And more hairpin turns.

Nick: There's somewhat of a loop around the farm, then a left turn back onto a dirt road.

Nikki: Which promptly heads up the side of a mountain.

Nick: Make sure you don't fall off of the cliffs, it's a long way down.

Nikki: After a little more of the cliff-side driving, the track ends up in the snow.

Nick: As if driving on dirt wasn't hard enough.

Nikki: After reaching the highest point of the track, it begins heading back down the other side of the mountain.

Nick: But not before throwing in a couple of sharp turns in the snow.

Nikki: Good luck here, steep downhill track makes for some high speeds.

Nick: Which can create some spectacular crashes if your brakes break.

Nikki: And back up the mountain we go...

Nick: Watch out for that hairpin turn on the edge of a cliff.

Nikki: And at last, the finish line for stage 2.

Nick: And another parking lot for racers to prepare for the 3rd and most likely final stage.

Nikki: Hey, the map is all on one mosaic.

Nick: Even though it crosses three city tiles.

Nikki: Anyway, this should be self explanatory, stage two starts at the point marked start, and ends at the end point.

Comments:

Note: "Niwärsni" is Zukish for "Hall" or "Meeting place," and Dolinluke is the capital of Imnatazhüthken, the largest country on the planet Myon.

dfnva: Glad you like it!

Archean: Deeper meaning? Not that I know of.

belfastuniguy: Thanks for the comment!

Schulmanator: That would be a good idea.

pipishere: I'm glad you like it!

NMUSpidey: Well, Yanar is somewhat flatter than Yintar... And stage 2 is here!

fabsies55: Thank you for the comment!

Zelgadis: You'll have to ask Valira to find out what she is working on...

[Schulmanator 5,787]

That rally looks quite challenging... the Chevette would never make it!

As for the unauthorized transport... could be the pizza delivery guy. But, if no one ordered pizza, then there's gonna be trouble.

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Breaking News:

Brad and Brian  have been sig-napped!

Brad: Leech save us!   Help!

Brian:  We have been sig-napped!

(Awesome rally route BTW...)

[dfnva 34]

Nice update, still need to find time to read the back story. I really like the dirt road with the switchbacks, reminds me of this road up the mountain in Western Virginia, the top is called Reddish knob, nice view.

Lotsa stuff going on. Fun to watch! Sure is one hell of a long rally...

Brad:  Just make sure that you stand in a safe place to watch!

Brian:  Standing on the outside of curves is dangerous!

Brad:  Yeah you never know when a car might loose control!

Brian:  Or worse...  

abcvs:   ARRRGH!   Do these guys ever shut up?  They are driving me nuts!

[Follarch 326]

Oh, that's a very nice looking summit locale, quite beautiful. And I just was curious since the Syndicate is now involved, and it was said she would strike somewhere where victory was assured...eh, nevermind.

Wonderful update! Still loving the story, and abcvs, I believe you made a sig-mistake.

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Nick: Have they driven you insane yet, abcvs?

Nikki: Or would you rather deal with me?

Dearest Leech

I believe these guys belong to you...   I hereby return them unharmed, back directly into one of your own posts...   fully resized.

I do humbly renounce any neferious claim that may have been made against a particular trixie.

Basically my ears could not take it anymore.

Warmest regards

Craig - abcvs

(Would be sig-napper)

Brad:  Yay we are back!

Brian:  That was an interesting experience!

Brad:  Indeed.

Brian:  Indeed, indeed!

[jacqulina 162]

wonderfull update my friend

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Note to self:

Sig-napping Brad and Brian was a bad idea.

[patfirefghtr 159]

LoL Craig you did it to yourself there buddy heheeh

[Hester 699]

Brad and Brian..are you OK??? That had to have been awful! There weren't any medical experiments were there??

;-)

[buildsolid 4]

Great update, would love to drive that course!! Hopefully Brad and Brian are OK, i mean after being with a kiwi and sig-napped, must have been a awful experiance!!! lol.

Apparently they thought they were on a school trip...   

I swear if I hear ... "The Wheels on The Bus..."   (sung as a round of course) one more time...

They did enjoy visiting all the Lord of the Rings filming locations though.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

That is a fantastic rally course. Should prove to be a challenge for even the very best teams. I really wish I hadn't missed the whole sig-snapping thing, though. I'm always late to the party: everyone's had a great time, things are winding down, and all the jokes have been told. *sigh*

Great update, though.

What about "Äen'amn hyip?" (or the English translation, "Are we there yet?")

That's good.

Edit: Odd... 380th post and 3900th view?

[Follarch 326]

- Tristan: Well, seems the "hostage" incident is over with. Welcome back Brad and Brian. *inserts earplugs*

- Lerra: I'm still having issues with your blond hair gone...

- Tristan: Blame the anime girls!

[fabsies55 5]

looking really good there man... just keep it up aye... well done.

[pipishere 3]

Ohh quite some twists and turns there! Great update Leech

[Hester 699]

I have enjoyed this update very much!

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Nick: Region view of the area of Yintar that has been shown.

Nikki: Yanar is south of the river, not much there yet.

Nick: Click for full resolution.

Nikki: And here's a basic Myonian license plate.

Nick: It is the year followed by the city code, followed by a unique code that is 1 to 5 alphanumeric characters, usually 3 or 4.

Nikki: In this case, the city is Namora, and the stuff at the top says Province of Narya.

Nick: The APZ stands for albëpyadazüth, which is Zukish for flying car.

Nikki: And on the left is the flag, the SCJU seal, and Myon's 3AC.

...

Brad: Why is our license plate here?

Brian: indeed, why?

[Twenty20 28]

Very nice pics, city, forest and fields, it's very well done. Great work !

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Brian: Why does Brad always get to talk first?

Brad: Indeed, why?

Brian:  ZOMG! We are in abcvs' post again...

Brad:  That's interesting.

Brian:  Do you think he will sig-nap us again?

Brad:  No.. we are "Just Visiting"

Brian:  So do I get the last word?

Brad:  Nope, not today Zurg!

[Schulmanator 5,787]

So, what do B&B drive that has this license plate?

[Hester 699]

Brian, care to beam me over some de-striping agent? Fresh out over here. Shirt has black and white stripes dripped on it from the gourd of stripe soup. Those stone spoons are hard to handle.
