A Gift From The Land!

Post by Haruchai »

If you could have one thing from the Land, what would it be?
A Ranyhyn would be cool, or maybe Earthpower. :) Or maybe a hot Haruchai.......8)
What would you choose?

The ability to attune yourself to Earthpower.

Yes, I think that's the best one, too. Also marrowmeld craft would be very rewarding have. That seems to me like it would be similar to earthpower in nature.

A huge supply of hurt-loam... :)
I'd take it straight to Mott Children's Hospital and work my way through from child to child... 8)

I haven't been sleeping well this week; diamondraught would have been welcome. (No, no, I didn't run out and take the Vow when nobody was looking... :roll:)

On a different note entirely, I've wished ever since reading the first series that our world had rhadhamaerl lore. That was the hardest thing to forgive SRD for taking away in the second series.

If I could have an orcrest or other artifact to bring back for scientific analysis, that would be neat.

Sorry to be a party-pooper, but Earthpower doesn't work in our world. I think the hurtloam would end up being just a bucket full o' mud, though very clean mud. :)

Hmm, bringing back diamondraught for analysis would be good, too. It would make for an excellent medicinal drink, unless its therapeutic properties also depend on Earthpower. In that case, it should still make for a tasty beverage. Coca-Cola, look out!

I want to take him with me wherever I go and have him perform nifty tricks to amuse me and my friends as well as intimidate my foes. Plus I hear he's a good cook. Oh, and I figure that if there is any way Earthpower could ever work here, then he'd be the one to find it, being an expert on the subject and all. If he could pass a little of that knowledge my way, that wouldn't hurt either. :D

You might have to keep Kevin bottled up in a hollow version of the Staff of Law until you need him, so he couldn't accidently Desecrate your left shoe when you're in a hurry and the shoelace breaks.

If we're adopting Lords as servants, I might appreciate Hyrim to cook for me. -- Except he uses too many spices. Oh, well. Better to let him battle the Illearth Stone.

EarthBlood. I want the Power of Command! Would I set this planet to rights or what ?!? :twisted:

Hmm, maybe not such a good idea... I have recurring dreams that tell me having too much power is NOT a good thing! :?

OK, I'll settle for an aliantha bush. I'd love to taste treasure-berries! And I could sell them for $1,000.00 a kilo at the Adelaide Central Markets! (all of you here at the Watch would get freebies tho!) :D

I think I would want the gift of telling tales, like the giants. Also, their longevity wouldn't be too bad. I could stand to live for a couple of hundred years!
