ÛÕÛÛÖ ÔÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÓ An anonymous avatar broke the Library policy and managed to remove three of the most valued books in the collection. "The Path of the Smile and the Sword", "The Tome of Blue Mold" & "The Treasure of the Lost Towers" are missing. THE RANT is cooperating with authorities to withhold details of the sinister crime in order to discourage copycat attempts. THE ORACLE has taken steps to insure that this action cannot be repeated. 2

We need to take a look at the damage we may do to our shops and Vendroids. I'm calling for the formation of a Merchant's Guild. This would allow us to keep prices fair and help new shop owners keep their heads above water. (more) 17
