Comments

[thaumobabble]

"Well, I can do Chronicle, if you like."

[prima_sequentem]

"Go for it!"

[thaumobabble]

Name: Chronicle

Worldfamily, if applicable: N/A

Primary inhabited planet(s): It's just called "Planet".

Known intelligent species: Humans; cats when in cooperative relationships with witches and squirrels when in the Enchanted Forest, I don't know if the species are fundamentally different or not; dragons, "morning" variety; elves, "sylvan" variety; dwarves, "smith" variety; wizards, "staff" variety; unicorns, "pool" variety; giants, "citadel" variety; various others of small population

Technology/magic situation: Low tech, high magic (many kinds, some learnable by people in general, others specific to species or family lines)

Afterlife situation: Added to Downside, numbered 85

Safety rating and notes for visitors: Magic is fully public; the world is very nice, and contains pockets of temporary unpleasantness but nothing too dreadful.

Glass's commentary: By far the nicest world. No relation to any other on record, but vaguely similar in flavor to Thilanushinyel and Rêverie in some ways.

List of inhabiting templates: Bell, Glass, human; Sherlock, Steel, human with some fire-witch; Tony, Iron, human with some fire-witch

"Perfect," says Libby. "Hmm, I should edit Aurum's entry to add the Jokerling. And Golden's warning about Addy." She does that.

Stella's turn.

[prima_sequentem]

(Libby laughs at the nemesis part.)

[self_composed]

"I'm glad you're not my nemesis," comments Stella.

[prima_sequentem]

"Me too!"

[thaumobabble]

"This sounds like an amusing story."

[prima_sequentem]

"It is!" says Libby. "Do you want to tell it, Stella, or should I?"

[self_composed]

"You go ahead," laughs Stella.

[prima_sequentem]

"Short version: Stella came to my attention when there were very, very few mints around and I knew all the rest of them. I didn't really know what to make of her. She didn't appreciate the way I tried to find out. So we were having a very tense cup of coffee together when I stumbled on Milliways and started talking to Elspeth, who was delighted to tell me all about her mother the magical vampire empress. And then I went home and handed Stella the star secret."

Glass laughs. "So there's a long history of people learning about one Bell and deciding to trust another."

[self_composed]

"It wasn't that long ago for me, but yeah."

[prima_sequentem]

"You've got a pretty good template going on there."

[self_composed]

"We rock."

[thaumobabble]

"I'm pretty pleased with us. Although I think Aegis may have upset my mother-in-law and definitely irritated my Sherlock."

[prima_sequentem]

"What'd she do?"

Sarion writes a profile.

[thaumobabble]

"Assumed that I was plotting usurpment."

[prima_sequentem]

"Ouch."

[thaumobabble]

"Yes. And I'm not. I expect it'll smooth over. Why did you make the worldbook planet turn like that?" she inquires.

[prima_sequentem]

"Because it amused me," says Libby. "It's a planet. Planets rotate."

[thaumobabble]

"What planet is it meant to be?"

[prima_sequentem]

"None in particular. It has about Earth's size and rotation speed but an unrelated geography."
