The Great Tree

Nion

The weirdest thing happened, and I want someone who's been around a while to explain this to me, so I'm putting it out here.

I waited until I had completed the Ages and the Marker Quest, and a couple of othr things, to attend the Orientation lecture in the Beginner's Bevin. One of the Explorers there heard the high-pitched screaming and asked what it was. One of the other explorers said, "It's the Bahro." The Greeter (sorry I can't remember which one) said words to the effect that the Bahro are "a myth," and that no one had actually seen a bahro. I was dumbfounded. Evidently, in her naivete, so was the responder, because she said, "I saw them on the volcano. Several of them." (How I wish I had known then how to capture the dialogue!) Anyway, he continued to deny their existence for a moment, then proceeded to ignore her protests and questions entirely and continued with his lecture.

"We're walking, and we're walking ... "

What was going on there?

Some explorers have not completed the Journey, choose not to follow Yeesha, and do not believe.

They call me Cleopatra - Queen of De-nial.

I love that song.

Are you talking about one of the orientations with a ResEng?

Sorry, I am still confused about the terminology. It was a ResEng. Simple denial? Or maybe ther's a more sinister plot. I'm always up for one of those. Perhaps this is what Yeesha (whom they say is dead - you know, like Elvis and JFK), meant by choosing sides. Who ya gonna believe?

And please translate for me the D'ni in your sig?

It seems odd that a ResEng would deny the existence of the Bahro - the DRC has openly confirmed them. maybe he's new and just doesn't believe the DRC...

As for the D'ni in my sig, it translates to "Yahvo is love. All love."
