> I'm in fact not dead, and I'm loving the new Sartar book. I have a shameless crush on the people who thought to put in those lovely realistic drawings of the cities of Sartar and of Clearwine fort. Excellent work all around.

Thanks - in Sartar Companion you get a few more of those drawings. I just saw the drafts of Runegate and they look lovely!

> Of course I'm still no fan of calling brass the metal of storm, but then we have a 30 year tradition of messing up the elemental assosiations so maybe that one was inevitable :P

The Orlanthi consider bronze and brass to have the same source - bones of the Air gods. Coincidentally, in the real world bronze and brass were widely believed to be the variations of the same substance until the 15th - 16th centuries.
