Ask Luna #187

From: Kevin

Hey Luna kind of an odd question but I read that you played World of Warcraft and I was wondering what class, race and faction, did you play/were your favorites?

And on a similar note do you guys play the games you used to together now that’s life has gotten a little less crazy?

I never actually had a favourite.  Kept trying different races, classes, etc, and never found one I was really happy with.  Whenever I thought I had, I’d end up losing enthusiasm and giving up.

And no, we don’t really play those sorts of games anymore.  After everything that happened, things just never really went back to boardgames-around-the-coffee-table like they did in the old days.  It’s a bit sad.  I do miss those times, everything felt a lot simpler back then.

Do you know anything about the new Senior Council members I presume took over Sal Sarque and Levistus’s seats? Not looking for an in depth primer just do you know if they are for lack of a better word “more moral”/not corrupt/evil as the ones before? I know that is asking a lot but do you think they will at least not be as bad as Levistus and Sarque were or is that too much to hope for?

And was the mage who got Alex’s old seat a Dark Mage or was he part of the Light Council or an independent mage they tried to say was Dark?

I’ve kind of tried to stay out of politics since Alex disappeared.  For now everyone’s too busy with sorting out the new pecking order to pay attention to me, and I think I prefer it that way – if I start asking too many questions, people might get reminded that I used to be Alex’s apprentice, and once that happened, it really wouldn’t take much for them to start to wonder whether I might know something that’d make it worthwhile to come after me as well.

Alex’s old seat went to a mage who qualified as Dark but who was just about acceptable enough to the Council that they weren’t going to have him executed or thrown out of the War Rooms on sight.  I’m not up-to-date enough on Dark politics to know whether other Dark mages think he’s a ‘proper’ Dark mage or not.

Hey Luna, hope you’re doing well.

I have a quick question.
We know your age, Alex’s, Anne’s and even Sonder’s.
But how old is Vari? When is his birthday? Was he in the same year in school as Anne?

Thanks for you’re time!
Nana

Vari’s birthday is March 29th – he’s four months older than me.  He was one year ahead of Anne at school.

1.After the battle in Sagash’s shadow realm, what happened to Rain? Did he make it out and is it possible he takes Nimbus’s job?
2. Any news on Morden’s operations or future moves?
3. Is it possible that the Arcane Emporium expands or makes new hires?

1. He made it out alive, but he didn’t get promoted to Nimbus’s job.
2. Haven’t heard anything, though I haven’t made any effort to find out.  I’m not exactly friends with the guy.
3. I don’t get enough customers to justify expanding (and making money isn’t really the priority, anyway) but I’ve been starting to think an assistant might be nice.  Having someone to man the register on slow days would help.
