Maybe this will work better

[aged-crone.livejournal.com]

I was pondering some of the questions we have; perhaps MWT would be more inclined to answer them if they were presented in another format. Like

The twilight dims the brightly shining sun;
The time for work and toil is past and done.
'Tis time, now, to turn our minds to dreams
And wonder what mysteries lie beyond the scenes.

Is underwear in Eddis made of wool?
What makes Nahuseresh's beard so red and full?
Do all watchmakers have biceps so strong?
Are the tunics in Attolia short or long?

Which goddess held that friendly chat with Gen?
Will Sophos reappear, and, if so, when?
What confidences did the Lady Heiro share?
Why did Eugenides unpin Attolia's hair?

Just how old is the Magus? What's his name?
Will Gen become an Annux of renown and fame?
What caused the King and Queen to sniffle and to sob?
What plans has Gen cooked up regarding Costis' job?

Exactly where does the Queen's husband spend each night?
And what, precisely, did he say in that maze to Dite?
Is Attolia Irene carrying a royal heir?
Will there be any appearances by a dancing bear?

Just what locations in the books are north and south?
And which way does the river flow, and where's its mouth?
Why was Attolia's dress a delicate shade of green?
Will there be more of dear Stenides to be seen?*

Is Dite a rhyme for tidy, night, or greedy?
How old are Sophos, Gen, Irene, and Eddis?
Will any of Attolia's in-laws show up at her Court?
Will we meet again Sejanus or his brother, in person or by report?

At what point did Emwit discover whom Gen loved?
Will Sounis and the Mede be working hand in glove?
From whose perspective will the next volume be told?
When will the Sacred Mountain's explosive fate unfold?


*Drag your mind out of the gutter. I mean will he appear in another book.


. I know I've forgotten some, but it's a start.

Three more verses added! Pop by and see them!

Hahaha. You rock, Leslie.

I always mentally pronounce "Dite" Deety, since it's short for Erondites, which I pronounce Aaron-deeties. ^_^;

But wow. That was a super duper rhyming poem there. I like the part about Gen's buff brother. xD

I think it would be sweet if book 4 was focused on Sophos as main character.

Man. You just made my weekend.

Probably in Greek that's how it is pronounced, but I went with the Aphrodite pattern of pronunciation.

Thank you for the compliment. I couldn't leave Stenides out!

[jesusphreaq.livejournal.com]

But that's still Dite-y. Which still doesn't rhyme with "night." xD

[aged-crone.livejournal.com]

No, I'm figuring on a one-syllable nickname.

EuGENidees, hence Gen.
EronDITEees, hence Dite-rhymes-with-night.

Anyway, both Dite-y and Deet-y sound Dork-y, to me anyway!

I should re-read things before posting them. Then I wouldn't repeat myself repeat myself anyway anyway.

[jesusphreaq.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, okay, fair enough. :D

Love the poem.

I rhyme it with "neat".
But then I was one of those who always read it as "Snake" before the movie and was weirded out by the fact that the changed Sna(k)pe's name in the movie the first time I saw it.

hahaha... At the first line I was like "poetry? What did I click on again?" But then I read further and was like. "oooooh.... awesome...."

FABULOUS.

Crap, now the entire library is staring and wondering why I'm laughing.

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHA. Leslie, you reprobate, that's fantastic!

[aged-crone.livejournal.com]

Emerald, every time I see your ring icon I'm carried back to first grade, when one of our learning-to-read workbooks had pictures of various things and one circled the ones that started with the appropriate letter. Your ring looks so much like the ring picture that I feel like a six-year-old again! : )

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

Is this a good thing, AC?

[aged-crone.livejournal.com]

Of course. When one is Aged it is a good thing to feel young. : )
