Good evening!

Thank you to everyone who has been taking advantage of the classes at Menrva's temple. To those of you who have not yet had the chance to stop by, please find a schedule available here.

Of course, we are also happy to make space available for additional classes if you have a skill or a subject to share. Please contact me or my goddess Elsa Randall for scheduling.

Which brings me to my second reason for contacting all of you! Since many of us aren't yet comfortable with the Internet, we'd like to raise money in order to purchase at least one computer. We already have a few offers to teach. Any donations that you can spare will go directly towards purchasing equipment and

getting us online!

Thank you very much for your consideration. We appreciate any and all assistance.

I hope to see you at the temple soon.

Computer?

[reformedsinner]

Oh, of course, my apologies.

It's a machine that transmits and processes information, like the ones we use to access this bulletin board.

[brynwieldr]

...these machines are very small. They can't be that expensive.

[reformedsinner]

They seem to be much more expensive than you would assume from their size.

[He was just looking at prices the other day.

It's what convinced him he really would have to fundraise.]

[brynwieldr]

I see. How do you fundraise here, then? Do gods need money?

[reformedsinner]

Our basic needs are provided for, but to purchase anything from the Near Shore, we need their currency. I'm afraid gods aren't paid in human money.

I know some of us have taken on odd jobs for it.

[brynwieldr]

What sort of jobs?

[reformedsinner]

I'm not exactly sure! I didn't ask for details. I'm sure things like house-sitting or assistance with moving could earn a little money, couldn't they?

[brynwieldr]

If one knows the first thing about any of that, yes.

[reformedsinner]

Are you looking for something you could use to earn money, Leo?

[brynwieldr]

Well if I will eventually need it, then yes. But I barely know how to make this tiny computer work.

[reformedsinner]

Perhaps we could help you with that.

Ah. I'm afraid the request about Niles still holds, however.

[brynwieldr]

I can work around that.

[reformedsinner]

Thank you!

I hope you've been settling in well?

[brynwieldr]

Define "well".

[reformedsinner]

The majority of limbs and internal organs intact?

[brynwieldr]

Yes, I've been doing just fine in that case.

[reformedsinner]

Ha ha, that's good to know.

And your shinki?

[brynwieldr]

Also fine. Thankfully.

[reformedsinner]

I'm surprised. He must have an excellent sense of when to run.

[brynwieldr]

He's quite agile and quick. And yes, knows when to run.

[reformedsinner]

What a very useful trait to go along with his hobbies.

In any case, I hope to see you at some time, Leo?
