We played our Tekumel selves, as they were. We arrived in the bay, Gertie showed up, and I made instant contact with her as Chirine is a magic users descended from the ancient Dragon Lords of Tekumel's past. It was pretty smooth sailing with the locals after that, aside from the language problem. I'll go back to my notes and get the rest of the details for you; I kept a log book of all our games, starting in 1976
Hi Chirine,
I know you are deep in preperation for the memorial event (I swear I'm going next year!) but when you get a chance, I'm wondering if you can tell me what year this happened. I'm thinking of adding it to my timeline project.
Lemme see...
Ah! Late 2361 A.S. in the Tsolyani calendar, according to an entry in the Imperial Military Journal, published in Bey Su and Minneapolis. This was after we'd gone swanning around in Lake Parunal, and which adventure the Professor used as a plot device in his novel "Flamsong".

]My notes say the late summer of 1982. Dave was very amused that he'd been able to 'feed' Phil a plot development, by the way.
Event preparations are going well; I spent a very enjoyable several days last weekend sorting out terrain, figures, and ships. I'm meeting the first wave of out-of-town guests at the airport in about three hours, but things are on schedule.
If you do think you'd like to wash up on our shores next year, the DLA MMME will be held on the first Saturday directly following April 7th; in the case of 2012, it will actually be on April 7th, the first Saturday in that April. Usual schedule of watery fun, too.
Does this help?
yours, Chirine
