Latest version of the draft for the suggested law against irresponsible handling of Goo:

The Theocracy of the Zoraï hereby bans the production, use, unauthorized possession, import, export, trading/transfer, advertising/offering as well as non-reporting the knowledge of such illegal deeds of all kinds of objects, item-parts, fillings or components and the like, that are mixed, filled or processed with Goo of any kind in the Witherings.

Especially weapons and munition made with or from Goo are strictly forbidden to be made and/or handled; as well as any kinds of drugs made of Goo. Also transport of and dealing with Goo-infested items to make profit is forbidden. Any counteracting will lead to a court proceedings and will be punished severely.

Any findings of Goo-polluted objects, item-parts or the like (especially weapons and ammunition) in the Witherings has to be reported to the officials of the cities of amber as quickly as possible. Trusted scholars can ask for an official permission to scientifically research Goo and will be advised to use utmost caution; not least because of the danger of Goo for their own body and mind.

It is not forbidden to harvest Goo of any kind with the intention to destroy it - but on the contrary: this task is very welcome; we encourage every homin to do so as often as possible. Goo and Goo-polluted materials should otherwise be delivered to officials in the cities of amber. Goo-infested materials shall never be used to produce items of any kind as this is extremely dangerous.

The Theocracy of the Zoraï wants to remind all Zoraï and Initiates that the most respected Kami have bestowed the honorable task of fighting against the Goo on our people. Please remember this duty at all times and also let the officials of the cities of amber know if you hear of any problems or dealings with Goo wherever on Atys. Thank you.

(OOC: please note that the "handling" of Goo-mission-materials and even Goo-polluted animal-loot is not forbidden RP-wise. Some Goo-polluted loot might be used for crafting - but since the products are not specifically labelled as Goo-polluted you won't have to fear of getting "in conflict with the law" :) )

* possible addition to the law following a suggestion by the Awakened Astarth:

- the Theocracy has renowned scholars and scientists who will receive and handle any Goo-samples delivered to them with utmost care and all due respect to the Kami, avoiding incautious experimentations.

* possible additions to the law following suggestions by the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang:

- as Goo is a plaque and a manifestation of nothingness, so Goo-contaminated items, item-parts, fillings, Goo-drugs and the like - of any kind - are not to be seen as "wares" nor "goods".

- the Goo is a disease and abomination that threatens all life on Atys; it's not part of the natural world. Destroying Goo is an important task to protect nature and to ensure the health of the ecosystems of Atys.

- Goo can be destroyed by the hands of homins, so this is recommended to do with small amounts of Goo like the kind that can be found under the bark. Even though fire can be used to destroy Goo please refrain from it and remember the fire of Coriolis: sap is dangerously inflammable even in it's veins under the bark and if fire should ever spread on a large scale in the Witherings it would cause horrible damage to nature.

* Akenak Bardor
* Mjollren, Atys-Citizen
* Osquallo of Amazons Mysticia
* Akenak Icus

topics that were actually addressed (a very personal view of the events by me, Zhoi):

* about Goo: Zorai-researches of Goo, how to destroy Goo, law against handling Goo

First physician Tao Sian, the personal healer of our beloved Grand Sage Mabreka Cho, declared that methods have been found how to destroy Goo, but did not explain how. At least natural fire is known to be able to destroy goo, but Tao Sian's words indicated that there are other ways too. She agreed with the suggestion to give any goo-items and the like found to the officials in Zora to be destroyed, as was planned for the text of the goo-bill. Tao Sian is one of few experts who are allowed to do research on the Goo within the Theocracy; so it seems that experimentation is still forbidden for anyone who is not especially authorized, even though it was not mentioned clearly during the assembly since the discussions became chaotic because of the intemperate imputations of an attending Fyros.

* about the Goo-contaminated Rangers in the Kitin-Lair who are being treated by Tao Sian

Tao Sian is taking care of a group of Rangers deep within the Kitin-lair in the dark mines where they have been infected with Goo. In that same cave remains of an old Matis-like camp and a Karavan-transporter-device have been sighted. It was revealed that the condition of the Rangers is getting worse every time they are trying to leave this place. It might be because of a special kind of goo or something else in there, perhaps it has to do with the old camp? Unfortunately Tao Sian is struck by health-issues every time she uses the Kamis magic transportation to the Kitin-lair, so she has to take a break and regenerate.

* suggestion by Jen-Lai to form a peaceful/non-deadly deployment force

After the tryker are considering a federal army to fight against marauders and other threats to their cities of New Trykoth, Awakened Fey-Lin Liang suggested to form a Zoraian group of defenders who should not resert to killing but find other ways to keep different threats away from our amber cities. One of the tasks of this group - called Pak-nédai squad - would be to hinder wild Gibbai from desturbing attempts of the Zorai and other homins to destroy/close kitin-tunnels, for instance by destroying termite-mounds...

* review about the visit to the Gibad(d)s, still open question about who should make/deliver containers

The spiritual leader of the Gibads, tribe chief Amagastai, spoke with a delegation of the Zorai and friends on Pluvia 9th in the third cycle of Atys-year 2573 (OOC: June 19th 2013), led by the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang, Initiate Pao-Len and myself, honorary initiate Zhoi. Chief Amagastai did not seem to know any better solution for the kitin-tunnels that are still present under the bark through all of the Witherings and the other New Lands. However he confirmed that the Gibads could provide us Zorai with magic potions - probably more safe for the environment than those that the Rangers are using on the termites... I informed the Sages that we have promised the Gibads to send them containers and am sure that this has been enough for our wise leaders to send them some from either the Icon-worshippers or our merchants.

* announcement of a date to meet with the Ancient Dryads and the Siblings of the Weed

A meeting with these two tribes from the verdant heights shall take place at the Kami-altar in the grove of umbra on Harvestor 18th in the first Atys-cycle of 2574 (OOC: July 21st 2013).

* a sudden assassination at the end of the Assembly terminated any further talks

All of a sudden a stranger stormed into the audience and drew something weaponlike. He attacked the Zorai Xiao-Mei who was said to have been held captive by Marauders and treated with goo-drugs for a while before she was saved. The male homin fled before anyone could stop him, but was recognized as a Marauder by those who were sitting next to Xiao-Mei as it seems. Xiao-Mei then started to behave strangely - she spouted words of enmity, took out a dagger and attacked initiate Pao-Len from Jen-Lai.

Judging by the words spoken it seems that Xiao-Mei had originally "wanted" or had been commanded to assassinate Sage Supplice / Sorrow, but initiate Pao-Len has prevented this and so happened to be wounded. As initiate Pao-Len died almost immediately and after that everyone realized with a shock that her life-seed had been destroyed and even the mighty Kamis were not able to bring her back, it was clear that the dagger had been poisoned, most likely with goo of some kind; just like goo-filled ammunition had been used to assassinate the Tryker governor Still Wyler long ago who was beloved by all. Investigations were decided upon, Xiao-Mei was brought away under the observation of healer Tao Sian, and the dagger given to the Guild of Cho who guards the amber cities and our spiritual leaders.

More details can be found here in the dialect of Hoi-Cho (German):

List of topics scheduled:
* introduction and listing of pending issues:
- How to fight goo ? how to be safe from it ? What to do in case of contamination
- The state of progress on the Goo Bill draft (future law)
- Alternatives to the termites solution (Ranger project):
Gibbad Tribe : report on the last meeting
Botany : about the future meeting with Dryads and Siblings of the Weeds
- Academy of Zora
- About the Information sign in Zora:
Voting on kind of panel.
Decision on where to put it ?
+ about Jen-Lai's plans of re-writing of the treaty of the four peoples with Thesos

#73 [en] 

* decisions for the future sign-board of Zora
- the "gravestone"-design C was decided upon by vote of the representatives of the amber cities
- the board will be put up close to the stables as per wish of the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang
- the information can be written on this board with a special waterproof colour that can be wiped off and thus can be replaced at any time
- crafting-master Lu Fan-Wan sent an Izam to Awakened Fey-Lin Liang, Awakened Astarth and myself, Honorary-Initiate Zhoi about the materials needed for this board. Each city shall provide 200 Scrath Wood Node, 100 Soo Amber, 50 Sarina Seeds and 50 Dzao Fibre harvested in the jungle of grade choice or higher, with a quality minimum of 150 or higher - and additional 30.000 dappers per city

* academy of Zora
- the name for the academy to come was decided by vote: "temple of knowledge"
- the Awakened Astarth suggested that the academy should be dedicated to a special main-topic, preferably the research of goo-infested items/weapons, while the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang suggested Goo in general

* kitin-thread against Zora
- the Kamis have forseen a kitin-attack on Zora, after Pyr and Yrkanis have already been seized
- the Awakaned Astarth repeated his report to the officials http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/17752/5# 5 - Celiakos Lyan Cexius had invited the Awakened Fitis, Astarth and Fey-Lin Liang to Pyr and had offered to send guards from Pyr to Zora to help defending the capital of the Witherings. The three Awakened had also agreed on an exchange of Fyros- and Zorai-wepaons; 14 burning axes for 14 electric maces and 14 burning grenade launchers for 14 electric rifles
- the Awakened Astarth volunteered to take care of the gatherings of jungle-materials for weapons and ammunition for the Zorai and the organisation of a convoy from Zora to Pyr. He also agreed to assemble the Zorai-weapons in Pyr and teach their use to the guards
- the Sages had their own talks with the Senators and had decided to accept the generous offering of Fyros-guards
- the Sages were informed of the missing guards at the north-east-east entrance of Zora to the Haven of Purity and agreed to let Fyros-guards take care of this gate

* ending
- some new guards had been hired to defend the Assembly, but their training had been lacking. When two members of the guild Asylum started a brawl, the guards also attacked us Zorai and our friends because of their inexperience. Eruv, high officer of the guild Asylum asked to please not blame it on the guild as a whole or the leader Rollocks, as the two members were returnees and had not been informed about the changed circumstances in the New Lands yet. He said that these members will be called to account
- the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang wanted to talk about the attack on Pao-Len by Xiao-Mei, but decided to do this in private to not let information fall into the wrong hands maybe
- the next regional Assembly will be changed to a national one because of the many pending issues. It was mentioned that Hoi-Cho has decided to not have any regular regional Assemblies any longer anyway

* sign-board of Zora
- crafting-master Lu Fan-Wan collected the materials and dappers needed for the information-board from Hoi-Cho. Min-Cho and Jen-Lai will provide their share later on, hopefully at the next regional or national Assembly
- as mentioned above this would be 30.000 dappers, 200 Scrath Wood Node, 100 Soo Amber, 50 Sarina Seeds and 50 Dzao Fibre harvested in the jungle 150 or higher of grade choice or higher per each city

* kitin-thread on Zora
- the Fyros had generously provided the Zorai with 50 burning/flaming melee weapons of excellent quality plus 100 additional melee weapons from the forge in Pyr, also with 74 burning/flaming brazer launchers and 148 launchers from the forge in Pyr to top it off. Ranger Daomei announced to give away ammunition for these launchers for free with the help of the merchants of Zora. The Sage Sens / Gangi Cheng-Ho had a talk with Celiakos/Senator Dios Apotheps. She had reported that the delivery of Fyros-weapons and ammunition to Zora went very well, and that a hold-up had been avoided by choosing an unusual route.
- the Awakened Astarth from Min Cho will organize the counter-delivery of materials for Zorai-weapons and ammunition, he will oversee the assembling of these materials to weapons in Pyr and teach their use to the guards of Pyr. The Sage Sens suggested that the Awakened Astarth should share the details of the progress with the other representatives as soon as possible, even outside of Assemblies. The Awakened Fitis also assured to contact the Awakend Astarth

* treaty of the four nations, free trade agreement
- on Medis 22nd in the second cycle of Aty-Year 2573 (OOC: May 25th 2013) Diwu had reported that Akenak Icus had suggested in Thesos to rewrite the treaty of the four nations and then to present it to the other nations as a peace offering. Seemingly the other cities have not been told about this though; only Jen-Lai was informed by patriot Geyos
- Akenak Bardor confirmed the plan in general, but said that nothing official has been done about it yet. He did not reply to the question about the rumors that the Sharükos Lykos had given his consent to this. Akenak Bardor agreed with the opinion of Filira Salazar that all cities on Atys should have a say in this matter
- my humble self, Honorary-Initiate Zhoi, filed a petition to the Council of Elders to let the representatives of the Circles meet with the representatives of the other nations and the Rangers to talk about this issue (if they will comply with it of course), since different versions of this treaty are known on Atys http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/16969/, so an unified version for all nations would be an asset
- the leaders of the four nations and rangers will naturally get the last / final word and decision in the end
- if the political representatives are allowed to come together the free trade agreement should also be addressed. An old agreement was signed in 2516 by all four nations http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=post/view/113117 but the phrasing and details are not publicly known. From the little we know there seem to be at least two slightly different versions. At the national Assembly of Taliari on Folially 4th in the fourth cycle of Atys-Year 2572 (OOC: April 15th 2013) Taliar Luth had petitioned to conclude a trade agreement with all nations, so he will surely want to be present when this matter is discussed
- even though the Awakened Fitis and the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang were asked if they are interested in working out a unified version of these treaties, both of them did not reply to the question at all. The Sage Sens deemed these talks a good idea, but will have to ask the Grand Sage and the Council for permission

* goo bill draft
- Hoi-Cho has attempted to pass a law to forbid trading and even owning of goo-infected items, especially weapons, ammunition and goo-drugs, on Fallenor 16th in the first cycle of Atys-Year 2572 (OOC: March 1st 2013). Shortly afterwards the first draft was published http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/16585/1# 1 in an open letter to Min-Cho and Jen-Lai
- the Awakened Astarth and the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang were told about this at the following Assembly in Min-Cho as well. Both wished for additions to be made, which seemed to indicate that they agreed with the law in general, but they refused to phrase these additions themselves and to work on the draft. I, Honorary Initiate Zhoi, suggested a phrasing for the desired additions, however the Awakened did not even comment
- while talking about Goo-research at the Assembly in Zora on Fallenor 2nd in the 2nd cycle of Atys-Year 2573 (OOC: May 30th 2013), the Grand Mask Mabreka Cho made clear that studying the Goo had been forbidden in a number of amber cities in the past. http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/17636/1# 1
- on Nivia 28th in the 4th cycle of Atys-Year 2573 (July 11th 2013) Tao Sian told the Assembly of the Circles that research had been done in the past - by a small number of chosen scholars. She also stated that Goo can be destroyed by homins, however without letting on about any details of how it can be done. Tao Sian announced a meeting of scholars to approach all of the pending questions, but no schedule was fixed. Unfortunately the additions for the Goo bill draft could not be phrased clearly without knowing these details
- I, Honorary Initiate Zhoi, asked the Circle and Sage for permission to constitute the basic law (ban on goo-infested items) quickly and only to later on add more information to the law after another talk with Tao Sian and learning about how to destroy Goo, how to handle Goo without risking infection and where to deliver Goo-infested items for research (presumably the future Academy that will be known as "temple of knowledge")
- the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang voiced worries that the tribes of the Witherings (as the law is supposed to apply to all of the 6 regions of the jungle) might view this law as a declaration of war. I, Honorary Initiate Zhoi, calmed these worries by pointing out that the ban of the usage of Goo is already well known to these tribes and just writing it down wouldn't make any difference to them
- the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang then asked: "And as they already know, is there a point to this law ? I am afraid it's just loosing some time in discussions". "Exactly, he difference is we put time into this, instead of action". "Writing a law will not change the behavior, as it is a Theocracy principle, initiates already follow it, allied tribes too, and enemy tribes won't change their behavior"
- replying to this I explained some of the reasons for this law once again: it's supposed to inform everyone, including visitors from other nations and especially newcomer-refugees, of the unwritten laws of the Theocracy. It will remind everyone about how dangerous Goo is, also Goo-drugs."
- the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang now stated all of a sudden: "We don't need written laws for that", "Information doesn't c ome from a law, information must preced a law". Still she clarified that she did not want to stop all the efforts that had been made to pass this law
- I added that this law will allow the Theocracy to bring criminals to court if they are caught carrying goo-infested weapons or drugs, like the homin who had attacked Xiao-Mei for instance. As of now it is sadly not officially forbidden to wield such items within the Witherings...
- as a conclusion the Sage Sens / Gangi Cheng-Ho suggested to form a work-group to phrase the law, since otherwise the topic might dominate the Assemblies for a long time. I proposed to let Tao Sian be a member of this team, and to set a clear aim for this group: to get this law on the way as soon as possible, and definitely not to discuss it to death. Again I insisted on working out a basic draft (like the one I have already phrased many cycles ago (7 RL-months) quickly and leave the additions for later if needed, since we still have need of official information for these
- once again the lack of communication amongst the amber cities was addressed at this point. When the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang explained that many Initiates are troubled by language differences I suggested to use open letters since everyone can take their time to phrase things and also get direct translations on the boards. This did not fully convince the Awakened, she thought that more organization will be needed for this
- Initiate Nahual stated that it's tiring to read long texts. Well, since laws are no telegrams and political discussions are no speed dating sessions, the only solution for this would be to read long texts bit by bit, taking as much time as needed. And boards are better suited for this again than talking for hours at a stretch
- maybe there's a lack of personal motivation? If action followed the talking like the Rangers demonstrated, then more homins might get interested and think that it's worth the effort to discuss things with each other...

* marauder arrested in Zora
- officials told us that a homin named Ezek was arrested in Zora; it seems he might be the attacker of Xiao-Mei who then killed Initiate Pao-Len, which happened at the Assembly of Zora on Nivia 28th in the fourth cycle of Atys-Year 2573 (OOC: July 11th 2013). Filira Salazar Caradini asked if he had been interrogated, which was negated by the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang
- the Awakened Fey-Lin Liang asked the officials to keep this prisoner apart from his victim Xiao Mei. More details will be discussed privately amongst Zorai only

* Kitin-threat: Kitin-observation-camps/-towers

The wise Sage Supplice / Sorrow told us that the Grand Sage Mabreka Cho is aking all initiates to help with the rebuilding of the kitin-observation-camps/-towers, starting in the Cities of Intuition north of Hoi-Cho. The kitin-threat is growing, and these camps/towers have proven to be helpful in the past; also to observe any changes of the goo in the case of the Witherings. The Grand Sage wishes the Zorai to organize themselves, help each other and do everything possible to build the observation-camps as soon as possible, Sage Supplice / Sorrow said.

The Kamis have indicated to the Sages that the Kitins are growing more and more restless as if it was just the beginning; and the Kamis have warned the Sages that the kitins will be here in their full strength soon.

* Kitin-threat: maps, plans of the rangers, warnings

Ranger Mac'od Bittty is keeping a map of the kitin-mounds up-to-date and asks of all homins to inform him about new appearances of kitins, also the small kitin-patroll-groups without mounds. http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/18199/5# 3 Awakened Fey-Lin Liang warned all homins present to be careful when travelling as formerly safe areas might be dangerous now. She pointed out that the Rangers are searching for the source of the kitin-activities in the old lands and have been asking master-cartographers to help them out.

* botanical solution for the kitin-tunnels

An overview about the events ( Xyphacanthus : The Sword of The Botanist) up until now:

1. on Pluvia 9th in the third cycle of Atys-year 2573 (OOC: Juni 19th 2013) a Zorai-delegation and friends have met with the gibads to ask them about alternative ideas to close the kitin-tunnels than using termites. The gibads did not like the idea of millions of termites crawling under the bark of the jungle, but they suggested to simply eat the termites if their number should become a problem. Additional to that they said that they would be able to provide "safer" magic potions to be used with the termites different to those of Fyros-scholar Daeronn Cegrips who brews the potions for the rangers current experiments with termites.

On Harvestor 18th in the first cycle of Atys-year 2574 (OOC: July 21st 2013) a Zorai-delegation under the special guidance of first physician Tao Sian met with the tribes Ancient Dryads and Siblings of the weed from the verdant heights in the grove of umbra. The tribes and other homins present suggested to plant rotoas (trees with pink blossoms normally endemic in the prime-roots except for the rare examples nurtured by famous Matis-botanists) into the kitin-tunnels to close them up.

Normally rotoas can flourish very well under the bark in Kitin-tunnels (just take a look into the Kitin-lair), but they grow really slowly. The reaction of the Siblings of the weed was not exactly happiness when the Ancient Dryads suggested to ask the Matis about their methods to make plants grow faster - namely the techniques that the Matis-botanist Gilado Almati has been using in older times. Still the Zorai-delegation decided to give it a try and to start asking around, since growing rotoas might hopefully turn out to be a safer method than to use termites…

A personal view about the meeting with the two tribes from the verdant heights written by Tao Sian can be found here: http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/17710/1

2. botanist and master-builder Gilado Almati (presumably 2403 - 2481 AC) is best known for his knowledge how to make plants grow at a fast pace, like the trees in the Almati woods - a region of the Old Lands named after him. Originally he worked at this place at older age to grow Matisian dwelling-trees that would provide living-space for the royality. But more and more rumours started to spread: that Almati was in reality an alchemist and had been breaking the rules of matisian biology to achieve his goals faster…

Homins who followed up the rumours, mysteriously vanished within the area of Almati-woods where Gilado Almati and his assistand allegedly worked inside a hidden underground laboratory; so no evidence of any violations of the law was found. Almatis' good relations with the royal family protected him at first, but as more and more vasalls vanished the king decided to start an investigation. Fortunately or unfortunately for Almati the first Great Swarming began right afterwards - and Almati vanished, like so many other homins did during those dark times.

3. former general Mezza Triva has been spotted and quizzed by some homins on Fallenor 18, 1st AC 2574 (OOC: July 24th 2013) in Yrkanis about Gilado Almati, after a disappointing talk with the famous royal botanist Cuiccio Perinia who would not give away anything about Almati's techniques. Some guards have leaked information that Mezza Triva had found something mentioning Gilado Almati when fighting Kitins, and she confirmed this herself. She said that she had spotted a stele during the battles with the kitins following the young queen who now lives in the Almati-woods. The battle took place in some sort of swamp in heretic's hovel - indicating some lake within the chilling swamp.

4. at this point Filira Salazar Caradini remembered a stele that had been there and lead the other homins to this place. The Stele in fact was there, and the inscription read:

In the year 2512 of our goddess Jena, I engraved this stele in remembrance of our master, the master botanist at the royal court of King Domini, Gilado Almati (2403 - disappeared 2481. He was the creator of the majestic forest who bears his name and in which the trees grow that will harbor the apartments of our sovereign and his family. His talent and his knowledge made this location an adornment of the kingdom and a land in which the melancholy is only surpassed by its beauty. The masterpiece of our master's forest bears testimony and conceals at the same time from the roots to the canopy a knowledge that only he is allowed to pass. To be sure that at least his assistants don't reveal it.

There was an angular shaped dent in the stele, looking a lot like it had been made for an amber-cube.

5. some further informations about Mezza Triva, the stele and Gilado Almati:

At the Assembly of Nobles in Yrkanis on Germinally 7th in the 2nd cycle of Atys-year 2574 (OOC: July 31st 2013) the royal advisor Mephyros Xytis (former Celiakos/senator of Emperor Dexton) informed the attendants that Mezza Triva has already been banned from the kingdom after the second Great Swarming for high treason. The real general of the guild of Karavia is now Ser Elran Antolli. No more details were revealed even upon request, and royal messenger Libi Freldo also did not know about the exact events - but Mephyros Xytis said that the nobles and audience in a former assembly of Avalae had been told all facts.

Awakened Fey-Lin Liang has seen the stele during the battle with the Kitins as well, and it's older text would roughly translate to:

Your bravery is impressive
But if you keep going on
You will face the truth
I doubt this would be enough
My researches on the flora of Atys are well known
The study of the roots is my real objective
If you succedded in deciphering this message,
Maybe you could understand what i am gonna reveal.

Awakened Fey-Lin Liang said that this might indicate that Gilado Almati had survived the second Great Swarming and may even be still alive.

Ranger Daomei Lin Carthan has collected informations about Gilado Almati that she was able to find here: http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/17712/1# 1

* latest events in the causa of the botanical solution to close the kitin-tunnels:

On Pluvia 28, 1st AC 2574 (OOC: July 26th 2013) a small group of homins under the guidance of Filira Salazar Caradini met in the Almati-woods. A ranger named Thopsan O'Jorliam told them that the rangers had found "stuff" inside the Kitin-lair indicating that Gilado Almati's laboratory had once been there at the exact same place where now the kitins are crawling under the bark. Thopsan O'Jorliam wouldn't say anymore, instead he suggested to talk to Orphie Dradius who was away but should be back somewhen in the future.

It still seems that an official letter to Orphie Dradius (to events@ryzom.com) is needed to meet with her whenever she should be available again. In the meantime the rangers have not stopped their own activities with termites, even in the verdant heights, which lowers the chances for us Zorai by the day to find a better (botanical) solution together with the Matis nobles and such persuade the rangers of refraining from letting "altered" termites loose all over Atys. Wilk Potskin who coordinates experimentation-working-groups of ranger-aspirants did not want to meet with a delegation about Gilado Almati, claiming that he wasn't knowledgeable neither in diplomacy nor in botanics.

In my humble opinion it doesn't make the rangers look good that they sought for permission from the royal court while provocatively ignoring the wishes of the chamber of nobles, voiced beforehand by Filira Salazar Caradini who spoke clear words of warning to ranger Wilk Potskin about the Matis' nobles wanting to support the botanical solution and being against experiments with termites inside the kingdom. No documents nor any other proof of the said alleged royal permission were made public either.

More detailled records (chatlogs in English, German and a little French) about all the talks with the Gibads Ancient Dryads, Siblings of the Weed, Cuiccio Perinia, Mezza Triva, Ranger Thopsan O'Jorliam and Tao Sian can be found here: http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/17380/

#83 [de] 

* review about the delivery of weapons from Zora to Pyr
50 electric maces, 83 electric bow-rifles (plus material for a lot of ammunition that Awakened Fey-Lin Liang did not want to include at the end) have been sent to Pyr. The raw materials have been provided by my humble self, Dextralame of Talian Zu from Jen-Lai and Sari from Hoi-Cho have crafted the weapons. Sari transported the weapons with her packers, accompanied by the Fyros Kyton Dedix and Xydon Meros loaden with additional dynastic 60 launchers through the forbidden source - with a group of homins who sometimes rather endangered the delivery than protected it, so Sari's mount died from yelk gas somewhere in the middle of the prime-roots. At least a group of bandits called firebooters was fended off at arrival in the desert. Celiakos Dios Apotheps (who is often present in Dyron) received the delivery in Pyr.

* information-board for Zora
All three cities have handed the raw materials and dappers needed to carpenter an information-board to crafting-master Lu Fan-Wan. It was said that the signboard might be finished and put up next to the stables of Zora until the next national Assembly.

* temple of knowledge (academy of Zora)
Sage Supplice / Sorrow wished to know about any news regarding the academy, for instance about it's main topic as had been suggested by Awakened Astarth. Unfortunately he was not present, but it seemed that everything else was ready and done, like documents and formalities to found the Zoraian temple of knowledge. The Sage reminded us that the academy would be born in a raw form at first like a tree without foliage that we will have to add in the future, so there will still be a great deal left to do. First physician Tao Sian has let it be known that she wants to attend the next national Assembly in Zora after convalescing from her transportation sickness.
