  • The Winged God, Part Two

    Recap

    Live action from Comic Quest in Southern California. The Menagerie continues the combat with usurpers of the mines–a pack of kobolds, a fire elemental, and a red dragon!

    Summary

    A gnome merchant named Nondy Barducks was robbed by kobolds on his last journey. He hires the party as escorts to keep him safe on his next trip to the remote mining village of Diamond Lake. After encountering the kobolds along the road, the players will have the chance to pursue and capture the kobolds or to continue on their way. Either way, the adventurers learn that the kobolds were driven from their home by a Red Dragon Wyrmling.

    The Winged God has two different encounters depending on whether the players chase the kobolds or not, but it eventually leads them to the dragon’s lair.

    With the encounters for this adventure, you can expect to reasonably complete it within about 2-3 hours of gameplay. As an adventure for level 3 characters, the Red Dragon Wyrmling could possibly be the first time your characters encounter a dragon, so there are a lot of opportunities to play up the epic and mythical nature of such beings. Plus, novice and veteran players alike are always happy for a chance to loot a dragon’s hoard.

    Summary

  • Hexagram 39: CHIEN

    OBSTRUCTION

    Surrounded by obstructions, one must first
    retreat, then seek the direction of the Sage.

    There is an old saying which fits this hexagram: “You are caught between a rock and a hard place.” In other words, you are surrounded by obstructions. As much as you may want to blame others for the difficulty, in all likelihood the true obstruction is in your own thinking. What is called for now is a retreat into self-examination and self-correction.

    Emotions of desire, fear, or anger may tempt you to take action now, but do not be seduced. The presence of these strong feelings is proof that your are off balance and need to steady yourself. As long as you try to forcibly achieve results—rather than carefully following higher truth step by step—you will be obstructed from making personal progress.

    Whenever we indulge in judgements about others, we obstruct our own peace of mind and progress. We should choose instead to see the best in others, allow them to come and go as they will, and turn our energies inward, toward self-improvement.

    Often the faults in our own thinking are revealed only with the aid of others. You would be wise now to seek the advice of a qualified counselor or truth-minded friend. Retreat, self-examination, and self-correction will remove the obstructions that block your path now.

    FIRST LINE

    Do not resist difficulties or advance against them. By retreating and observing, you learn an important lesson. Then moving forward becomes easy.

    SECOND LINE

    You are not to blame for the current difficulties. Neither should you concern yourself with penalizing others. Accept, let go of judgements, and simply do what is correct.

    THIRD LINE

    Do not act recklessly and egotistically. Retreat and restore your equanimity, and good fortune results.

    FOURTH LINE

    By keeping still you gather the resources you need to progress. The way will be shown when the time is right, and not before.

    FIFTH LINE

    The obstructions can only be overcome by the strength of proper principles. Through perseverance and correctness you obtain the aid you need to succeed.

    SIXTH LINE

    Do not turn your back when you are needed. The superior person exercises his higher nature now, saving not only himself but others around him.

  • This week we are guided by the Wheel of Fortune

    A large wheel is turning, surrounded by symbols of change and transformation. The Fool has emerged from his retreat and recognizes it is time for change. Nothing remains the same whether you want it to or not. The time is ripe for new opportunities and fate might be in your favor. 

    You need to take advantage of any good luck that comes your way and consider the repercussions of your actions. You might have to adjust your plans to take account of what is happening around you.
