TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE

There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

Why do you think I'm so frustrated? I've railed and shouted and clawed at it until my throat's sore and my fingers bled. I'll be relieved when I can finally yell a little less.

[This is a lie. kaveh loves yelling.]

It is not always the loudest in the room that gets the most attention in the end, but the most consistent. Continue to pursue your goals and stand up for your values, certainly, but perhaps a slightly more measured approach might serve you well.

Then again, it is true that well-behaved folks rarely make history.

A measured approach doesn't build palaces at twenty-eight, I suppose.

[netherese]

Nor does it earn one the favor of a goddess.

[He gets it.]

They must have been some palaces. A shame; I would have quite liked to see them.

[empyrean_mirror]

Oh, I have the blueprints.

It's just the one palace, but I think I have the sketches from renovating Port Ormos, too.

[netherese]

One is surely enough, I imagine. Certainly more palaces than most people ever manage to build! I would be quite keen to see these sketches of yours in the futures, however. As ever, my curiosity is endless.
