Looking for help with that pesky quest? A wizard of Bath discovers the realities...

Hilarious.

...I did learn a few useful things...

Older people are much less likely to see the funny side of something, even when the safety of the universe is in the balance.

Couples are far better at avoiding the magically hindered than individuals.

Men with grey beards really don't like to be called, "fellow wizard." (Although, their wives are likely to find it funny.)

I didn't see him, and I work in Bath. If I had...hmm. I don't know whether I would have bitten. I'd like to think so, but to be honest it would probably have depended on my mood.

That's a disheartening thought...the universe going to Gehenna in a gehandbasket because I've got a strop on...I must do better.

Great link... I had to mention it in my LJ too, with a little explanation text for my friends who don't do the online games.

Ironically enough... I can completely picture a Young Wizards MMORPG along those lines... though the quests would be less "Would you do a favor for me?" and more "Err... could you help restore the universal balance of entropy and anentropia before it's too late?"
