Tell you what. Let's *not* work out what the formula is. Not until we've finished calculating the wing-tip velocity of a half-fed Bat, anyway :)

That's not such a good line.... Can't see Broyan or Kallyr actually saying that one. Thinking it, maybe.

So what game *were* they playing up in the Orlanth Temple as the Bat approached? I don't see either of them as chess players myself and I can't see Whitewall having a bowling green.
