Hi! *Hugs everyone.*<br/><br/>I like the idea that the real centre of the island, where the nagas live, is protected by some kind of barrier a la Black Panther. It would be magical, of course, not technological, but same principle and same effects. I would, however, prefer to keep the technological level low, ie not Wakanda-level please<img alt=":wink:" src="./images/smilies/wink.gif" title="Wink"/>, and have them use magic for their everyday needs. Maybe the island itself it a sort of powerful magical focus for the world.<br/><br/>I very much second the idea that Suriya leads the place and we get to finally meet her. She'd probably recognize Jaku, though he changed quite a bit since they last met, and also Tamara. After all, it was Suriya who changed Tamara in the first place. (And frack me, I had forgotten that it was Eka who played Suriya in the beginning:l<a class="postlink-local" href="https://aryion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&amp;t=110&amp;p=791&amp;hilit=valley+of+the+serpents#p791">viewtopic.php?f=19&amp;t=110&amp;p=791&amp;hilit=valley+of+the+serpents#p791</a>lThis whole thing started 14 years ago, I feel old now...<img alt=":P" src="./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif" title="Razz"/>)<br/><br/>I'm not that keen on dividing our group and having two separate storylines until the Beach group goes after the Adventuring group. I'd rather we stay together, it makes for better stories I think. Though, if everyone else wants to split I'll follow.<br/><br/>In case of a split, I think that Suriya would find the Adventurers to be familair in some strange ways, especially Suri since she's born of the love between Jaku and Tamara.<br/><br/>That's it for me ^^
