				SESSION 14

	Finndo orders Gerard to take Random to the infirmary.  As the
deposed King in question is bleeding from the neck, the big guy does not
choose this moment to rebel against Finndo's authority.  Everyone else
pretty much falls in line behind him, though, at least until they can
safely duck into an alcove to talk about their options, which Caine opts
to do when he sees Cameron.  Caine, not waiting to commit at this time
decides to wait in sea.  Thank you.
	Archimedes, meanwhile, asks Gerard for info on Finndo, showing
just how desparate his situation is.  Helpful as ever, Gerard tells him
that he could hope to die on his feet if he's really lucky.
	Laughter leads the puca to the promised land, and somewhere in
Shadow Exodus is added to canon.  She then gives Ulysses a hand in
escaping Amber and fails to Trump Fiona.  I think.  I was too absorbed in
what happened next, actually, to notice anything so trivial as other
people role playing.
	Jubal escapes Amber, his mother in tow.  While setting up camp for
the night, he notices someone sneaking up on him.  He determines it's
female and young, so he figures she's harmless.  Mistake number one.  He
and Tianen chat for a while. She wants to know why he's lugging the stiff. 
She compliments his actions on the battlements, then tells him to offer an
alliance to Archimedes.  He really doesn't care, and that's pretty much
where they left it.
	Archimedes wakes up to Finndo cheery face.  Things get worse.  The
old boy has drugged Archimedes' old man.  He gives him a repreive until
Random wakes up. This give our hero the chance to ask Vialle what the Hell
he should do.  She suggests that he not be around in the event that Finndo
remembers how annoying his existance does not have to be.  Archimedes
tries to round up help via Trump, but Benedict will only assist in
situations where calling for his help would be unfeasible, and Gerard
doesn't want anyone getting hurt.  Llewella is more helpful, volunteering
to muster Moire's "Royal Displeasure" on his behalf.  He Trumps Flora who
gives him his own updated deck, which he uses to Trump Ulysses after
returning Vialle's.  Ulysses loans Archimedes his Trump of Plaid.
Archimedes promises that he won't ever forget the gesture.
	Meanwhile, Sandr and Cameron break fast with the splendid company
of Finndo, Gerard, and Flora.  Finndo assumes that their presence implies
their allegiance. Sandr excuses himself.
	While Ulysses makes Trumps of Foil for Laughter, she call Fiona,
who reassures her that all is well, try not to call attention to me--or
yourself.
	Jubal determines that Adrian's problem is that she is incapable of
retaining any memories.  He moves to rectify this.
	Laughter and Sequence argue.  Laughter wants to choose a side, but
Sequence seems to feel that anyone in his way is meat to be wasted.
	Back at the breakfast table, Finndo gives Cameron time to think
about his offer, but points out that he would be displeased to learn of
his departure.
	Laughter Trumps Archimedes, but when he answers, it's Finndo. 
Nothing much seems to come of this, but we are all made aware of who the
real enemy is.  Look to the skies!
	Sandr arrives in Foil.  He might talk to someone, but frankly too
much happened at once, and I kind of lost all of it.
	Laughter Trumps Cameron.  Stuff is said, but I was occupied as
follows:
	Jubal's spell is successful, and Adrian is now capable of charting
the stream of conciousness.  Unfortunately, the waters prove somewhat
shallow.
	Archimedes Trumps Benedict and informs him that he could do much
to prevent the impending tragedy.  While Benedict takes steps to ensure
that Random fully appreciates his condition, Archimedes finally receives
that Trump call from Laughter, which is ambivalently supportive.  Benedict
leaves, and Archimedes updates Random on the depth of their mutual
despair.  Random decides that they're not quite desparate enough to call
in Corwin.
	Archimedes Trumps Corwin.  No dice.  Fiona proves game, however,
and she wins Random's ear.  She asks if they're comfortable there, then
renders the Shadow inconspicuous anyway.
	Sandr locates a Shadow of Cameron, apparently at Laughter's
behest.  It must have some relevance that I missed.  It happens.
	Laughter asks Moire if she can walk Rebma's Pattern.  Since Finndo
has not issued any statement about her, the Queen agrees.  Pay attention,
kids. Sometimes Good Stuff can let you walk right into a big ole smelly
pile of Stupid Stuff.  Before sealing her own fate, she directs Sandr to
the safety of Foil and says she'll inform Cameron of his twin.  Laughter
does this thing and tells Cameron to Trump Ulysses.  ("Uh-huh-huh.  Whole
lotta Trumpin' goin' on.")
	Jubal Trumps Corwin, who does not recall and wasn't there anyway. 
Jubal decides that he really doesn't like his father.  He Trumps
Archimedes, who resists, so he picks on Random.  The deposed King accepts
his promise of an edge, hoping that it won't be inserted in a vital
location of his own.
	Sandr Trumps Tianen and offers himself as a willing toadie.
	Laughter walks the Pattern in Rebma and has it take her to her
father's quarters, outside please.  She is greeted agressively by his
staff.
