	Ah, you speak of danger. That sounds more interesting than waiting, though I perceive that such danger occurs on the Judges' schedule and not ours. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[nods] Outside of games, we hunt, fish, gather, and garden in order to obtain enough food to feed ourselves. It's not without danger, as there are dangerous beasts to be found the further you go from the dorms. Also, recently an angry Judge has also sent beasts to attack the dorms, though I believe the first wave is gone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How disappointing. If I had known there would be dangerous beasts outside our dorm, well, I would not have slept so late. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[carefully] Luckily there weren't any around when I returned at the dorm, and I hope what we've seen of them so far is the last we'll see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well. If they are to show themselves again, you may direct any which seek to puncture your flesh towards me, where I will endeavor to strike them first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...orz] [sighs, and hopes this doesn't backfire horribly one day.] If you're so eager to fight, then one of us can start teaching you how to use a knife. Hunting and fishing can be taught over the next few days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-11 01:05 am UTC (link)
	That will have to do. Are hunting and fishing often needed for the table? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 01:48 am UTC (link)
	Fairly often. We also have other sources of food. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 01:57 am UTC (link)
	Other sources, you say? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 02:06 am UTC (link)
	Gathering and gardening. Some plants outside are safe to eat, and we keep a garden here. It's located on the second floor, on an outdoor parapet that circles the bedrooms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 02:26 am UTC (link)
	I do not think I'd make much of a gardener. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 02:34 am UTC (link)
	That's fine. I think it would be a good idea for you to at least learn how, but between Lynx and Corvus we have enough people that it won't be a problem if you don't want to tend the garden. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 02:54 am UTC (link)
	Well, I do not object to learning how. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 03:07 am UTC (link)
	Alright. ...What have the others told you so far? I know we've given you a lot of information in a very short time, but there's still more that you should know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Executor Selendis, Rory and Persephone have told me their names, and the dark-haired Easterner who was sleeping when I entered his room gave me a lesson on the teams here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, yes. I apologize for the oversight, my name is Spear. Have you chosen a name for yourself yet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 03:25 am UTC (link)
	I do believe I have! My name is Honor, until I remember my first name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 03:37 am UTC (link)
	[first (tiny) smile] Honor. That's a good name, even as a placeholder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am rather fond of it, for all that I've had it for but a short while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spiltbloodlines 2011-06-12 03:57 am UTC (link)
	Well, Honor. I think the only two topics left to discuss are Ophiuchus' rules and how people can be taken from their teams. The second ties into what we know of the history of Sabra la Tau. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-12 04:01 am UTC (link)
	You perceive I am listening intently. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'll start with the rules then. There aren't many and they're simple:

You cannot give or accept anything from another team without making an equivalent trade for the object. No punching the walls. Do not stay overnight in another team's dorm. No killing other blanks outside of games. No self-sacrifice is allowed during games.

There is also a curfew in place. The cavern will be pitch dark after the curfew, and you will know when curfew is approaching when the torches dim.

So, there are to be no gifts. For everything we give another team, we must treat it like merchants. We are not to punch the walls, which strikes me as a silly rule, but I will remember it. We are not to go out after dark, nor stay in another team's dorm. Bah, so many of these rules.

As for the killing... that covers all deaths caused by another blank? That is to say, if someone were to give an insult that could only be answered honorably by me attempting to remove their head from their shoulders...

	[nods along as she repeats the first few rules] Yes, the no-killing rule cover all deaths outside of games, whatever the circumstances. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	baddecisiondzur 2011-06-13 06:23 pm UTC (link)
	I will endeavor to remember that. Though it may be difficult depending on those also here. If they are well-mannered, of course, I shan't need to kill them. Though perhaps they wouldn't mind the exercise of a few practice bouts. That would be a fair trade. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
