Thank you.  I particularly liked the tents as well.  they turned out how i
imagined them, which is not usual for me.  I've always had an interest in
middle east/central asian peoples and cultures and look forward to the new
"oriental" adventurers!  finally turbans in something other than that silly
purple!

Being a hermit, and not very well liked by the Marketplace Guild, he was
assigned a booth in the mud.  But Cirab enjoys it okay, but it hasn't
started raining yet.. soooo. (or maybe i ran out of green 16x16 plates
before i ran out of ideas!)
