"Question about Amberites in UF"
|
Just a quick question for Gryphon. Is UF Gryphon aware that he ran into one of the princes of Amber (or at least a near shadow version) back in Secrets? Kheram |

He wasn't paying much attention. Given the cosmology of the UF universe, it's extremely unlikely that character was who he seemed like he was supposed to be, anyway. --G. -><- Benjamin D.

He was probably talking about Julian "The Huntsman" Amberson, the commissioner of the 3WA detachment on Tantalus IV in the so-bad-I'd-like-to-Stalinize-it Exile story Secrets. --G. -><- Benjamin D.

>He was probably talking about Julian "The Huntsman" Amberson, the >commissioner of the 3WA detachment on Tantalus IV in the >so-bad-I'd-like-to-Stalinize-it Exile story Secrets. Grumf. Darn free-association. Well, nothing to do for it, except ... SING! Hunt, hunt, hunt, he's The Huntsman! "Into Action!" is his cry! From the forest to the city, He will run there in a jiffy, To sock Evil in the eye! Marty Feeb was a poor sportsman, Hungry, without dough, 'Til the day he saved a chunky elf From being eaten by a crow! The elf rewarded Marty Feeb With a magic sack of corn; It gave him strength, and speed, and shiny teeth, And as The Huntsman was reborn! Hunt, hunt, hunt, he's The Huntsman! He'll whip the pants off the bad guys! When you have an emergency, Sound the Horn of Urgency and summon The Huntsman: "Into Action!" is his cry! Hunt! ...There, I feel better now. - TTTFITN - Lord Ilmartello!

Thanks - I had this in my head as soon as I typed that part, and couldn't actually remember anything but the first line. :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.
