Short Story 62: Straw

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Also, very briefly, Gawain stayed at Ascolot - his symbol is the pentagle,
the 5 pointed star, according to some myths.  (His horse is Gringolet and
Gawain is careful with his horse - Lancelot has no distinct horse and will
ride them to death if necessary.)

The horse Jerr finds in the stable hiding the straw is "a big warhorse with
a white star on his forehead."

[Gawain's shield is gold on a red background - as the balloon sinks, Jerr
remarks "we were sinking towards what looked like a red and gold carpet"]
Could be entirely coincidental but I thought I would mention it.
