Sensory Experiences On Ramnu

Nullfire, our old friend, a grass equivalent, glows in the sunset;

lurid colors west, blue-gray above, purple east;

flames and smoke on a black volcano;

an approaching storm towers, flashes and rumbles;

increasingly cold air sighs and stirs Yewwl's fur;

the fire that her party has made is both audible and warm;

the Ramnuans spread their vanes to catch the heat.

Thus:

colors;
sounds;
cold and warmth;
the feel of air in fur.

Two reminders that Yewwl is not human: fur and vanes.

A pathetic fallacy: a storm approaches simultaneously with the would-be usurper, the Grand Duke of Hermes.

Kaor, Paul!

What made Edwin Cairncross' case different from those of Hugh McCormac and Hans Molitor was that he was descended from the Argolid Dynasty. Which meant he could claim to having a better right to the crown than Emperor Gerhart.
