That isn't dust. We had a vampire in here applying for a job as barkeep just before you arrived. Unfortunately, he pressed the tanning ray button behind the counter.Originally posted by Bloodstalker
Perhaps. Ancient dress is not my strong point. But, if you would at least brush some of the dust from them, perhaps they wouldn't appear so ancient....
Poor guy. I hope his relatives and thralls had insurance.
Babylonian? tell me, was it really the den of iniquity it has the reputation of being?
Not at all! Oh, we had our hotspots, and I mean, Nineveh was pretty hot. But really, life in Babylonia was just the same as it is today, the usual round of work, taxes, play, prayers, invoking firestorms, beating up Persians in chariots, etc. We were a tolerant bunch: if you didn't bother us, we wouldn't bother you. Drove this one guy Ibrahim up the wall. Said we all worshipped idols except him, and his idol was god. Took his sons and slaves and west southwest, claiming our morals stunk. Not a partylover, that one.
