    "Chlug Ressamog is just Gossamer Gulch spelled backwards... inverted. It would make sense that the prince of the inversion of the land of magical dream creatures would be a creature like a troll" she observes with a smirk.

    "Of course, that just makes Gossamer Gulch itself another place to look for clues."

    [just so were clear, this is the kingdom of Gossamer, and the Gulch is a legendary place hidden somewhere in the kingdom?]
    Don't call it a comeback. It's a riposte.

            [I'd say, "what are we waiting for," but the stuff Teal said about it being a fairy tale suggest to me that we won't easily find it on a map.]

                      Gossamer Gulch is a day's walk away - in what direction, you don't know and it doesn't matter. As long as it's the destination of your heart, that's where you'll end up.

                      So the silly legend says.

                      But it also says something about Gossamer Gulch being something or other's home... No one seems to remember what.

                      The Footman only remember something good lives there. He says he's been there many times and can even tell you when - but not what why or what lives there. Evidently, no one remembers once they leave the place.

                              [Moving right along...]

                              The footman is more than willing to let you take the spindle - seeing as it's a cursed item and they've been trying to find someone stupid enough to take it for years (he doesn't put it quite that way, in fact he complements your bravery, courage, strength and just about everything else when Siri suggests taking the thing [from SB conversation]).

                              Otherwise, there isn't anything to loot - unless you wanna steal someone's spinning and tote a fifty pound spinning wheel down a LOT of stairs. [Y'all are gonna have an interesting time with that bard of yours...]

                              Once back in the throne room, His Majesty provides mounts and provisions for the day's journey to Gossamer Gulch. Three days worth of provisions, which seems odd but who's gonna argue?

                              [I'm gonna presume you were ready to travel - post any 'eek, I needed to ____' actions in your next post and we'll count them as having happened before leaving. And on that note, off you go!]

                              Map and directions provided, you start out the next morning. A half day passes pleasantly but uneventfully. After a nice lunch, you don't ride far before coming across three goats, one normal sized and two progressively larger. The largest is huge. They are on the side of the road, huddled together as if in conversation.

                              As you get closer, you hear a childlike voice complain, "But Big Brother, you beat up Timothy Troll every day! We need to get to the pasture - I'm hungry!"

                              A deep, rumbling voice answers, "Timothy is on vacation. His substitute likes riddles - I can't help it if they change the rules! And besides, I don't even know what that thing is!"

                              Actions?

                                [ugh. Didn't think about the possible difficulties of playing as a high-charisma character in one campaign and an overly terse robot in another.

                                and yaaaaay Billy Goats Gruff meets the sphinx.]

                                Siri, with a grin, turns to her companions: "Do either of you like riddles?"
