Trivia Time (Otherwise known as.. Amber's bored)

[Amber]

Gor trivia only.

What is invisible, but more beautiful than diamonds.  That which is silent but deafens thunder. That which depresses no scale, but is weightier than gold?

[RAGNAR]

*Chuckles*

 

[Mercilayne]

There is probably a right answer.....and this isn't it............-chuckles- I suck at trivia.......


A good Attitude...

[Amber]

Of course there is a right answer, Sis. -lol-  And it ain't 42 either.  Nope.. not a good attitude.

[Taryn]

Honor.

[Amber]

Yup.  Your go, Sistah.

[Taryn]

What is the name of the Gorean funeral procession song and dance?

[Amber]

There isn't one.  The procession was silent, as it was not time for such things as singing.

[Taryn]

Correct! Your turn.

The procession did not chant, nor ding, for this was not a time for such things, nor did it carry boughs of Ka-la-na, nor were the sounds of the sista or tambor heard in the sunlight that morning. At such a time as this Goreans do not sing nor speak. They are silent, for at such a time words mean nothing, and would demean or insult; in such a time there can be for Goreans only silence, memory and fire. -- Assassin, Page 2

not to derail or anything- but if that is the case, what is the blue sky song from? is that an onlineism?

[Amber]

We do things a little different here.  What that is describing a funeral procession in a city to be specific.

[Amber]

Also we don't sing during the actual procession. it's when the pyre that is lit that the song is sung.  But I could be wrong.


In the books there is only one drink served which is measured by rings on a goblet. What is the drink?

[RAGNAR]

The Blue Sky song is often sung by Warriors of Tuchuk when they are dying and they know it, and are able.

The refrain of which is;

"that thought I die, yet there will be the bosk, the grass and sky".

[Mercilayne]

Wine

[Amber]

Duh the Vintner gets it.  Lol.  Good job, Sis.  Your go!
