I’m glad it doesn’t snow like that where I am. We do get some snow, and I enjoy a pretty snow here and there, but after one big storm I’m done for the year lol. I prefer 70 degrees and sunshine. It’s supposed to be getting up to 80 this weekend, which is a little unusual for October.

Sounds good! Should we have @rae…[Read more]

Yosemite is pretty cool! My family went on a road trip a few years ago around the Midwest/West and that was one of the places we stopped. I would say my favorite place though would probably be either the Grand Tetons or the North Cascades in Washington. I wish there were more mountains like that closer to where I live, but…[Read more]

I do agree there is something powerful about the laying on of hands, and I won’t argue with you on that. And certainly, if someone is being ordained or brought into a role of leadership, I think the laying on of hands is important. I do think there is something powerful about a leader laying their hands on someone else and praying…[Read more]

@euodia-vision

I used to do mostly nature (flowers, animals, scenery, etc.) but I started doing a little with people in the past few years and I enjoy pretty much anything now.

Welcome to KP! I’m Janessa, known around here as Trailblazer, because I enjoy hiking and mountains. I write a lot of contemporary fiction, as well as historical fic, some mystery, and some journalism. I also like photography.

A few quick questions for you:

What’s your favorite place you’ve ever been to?

Do you have any other…[Read more]

Well, I think I’m gonna sign off for the night. I’m not sure if I’ll have much time tomorrow to RP but I’ll try to at least read through anything I miss.

@jonas

Oh goodness. Sometimes it would be nice if we could see messages pop on the screen as soon as they’re sent instead of refreshing the page.

@highscribeofaetherium

It was just Kari, Hugo, Amir, and Hedieh. The rest are still back with the queen.

@jonas

Hmm then maybe we have some conflict here, eh?

@savannah_grace2009

Well, to be fair, he hasn’t known all the other characters any longer than he’s known the queen, soooo

@jonas

Since these characters have known each other longer than they know the queen, I think it makes sense that they trust each other more than they trust her.

@jonas

Yeah I can’t tell you how many times I start typing and before I finish someone else posts something else lol.

Kari

“I’m coming, too,” Amir added.

“Me, too,” Hugo put in.

“Okay, well, let’s go.” Kari started off in the direction Ottoline had gone, with Amir, Hedieh, and Hugo following her. “I hope they didn’t get far.”

The four fell into silence as…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium

Oh that’s true! I was speed-reading to catch up on all the posts lol. Just pretend Lane said “the other guy” instead of Ellis.

@grcr @jonas @savannah_grace2009 @esther-c @highscribeofaetherium @acancello @rae

Meanwhile….

Kari

“Well, this is fantastic.” Kari laughed sarcastically. Things kept getting crazier, but she knew she couldn’t lose her mind or they were doomed. Maybe she had already lost it, but in all cases, she needed to think rationally. “We all stumble…[Read more]

@jonas @rae @savannah_grace2009 @acancello @esther-c @grcr @anyoneimissed

Quick question: how many of the characters have experience in warfare? So far I think I counted Ottoline, Ellis, Nayhim… and I think there were others but I don’t remember who. That might be important to know exactly who has experience and who doesn’t. Kari has no experience btw.

@euodia-vision

What kinds of photography are you into?

@thearcaneaxiom

I think I understand what you’re saying. I’d say that authority is still active- I think there was a period of time where it wasn’t as commonly seen in the church, or perhaps inactive altogether (I’d have to do more of an in-depth study on church history to say for sure) but I definitely still see it around me today. Just as with…[Read more]

@jonas @rae @everyoneelse

I will add something later today… I have a full schedule this week so I’m going to try to keep up as much as I can, but if I’m not involved just keep dragging Kari along lol.

But yes, I think they need to discuss how they’re going to work together to accomplish this quest, since some are experienced and others aren’t.

@thearcaneaxiom

Authority as in God designating specific roles, like the Pope for lack of a better example, or authority in the terms of authority God gives believers over satan and his demons?

In both cases, I think the question is not necessarily “Is authority Biblical?” but rather “How far does authority extend and what is our proper…[Read more]
