Taladas. they are the only acknowledged worshippers of the High God, and they live in a desert made of glass sands. They get around on giant sail glider pontoon things that coast over the sands and protect them from glass shards. They are completely covered from head to toe in protective suits, and don't like outsiders.

awesome stuff.

Talinthas is our local Taladas expert, and I wanted to acknowledge that fact. If you ever have a Taladas question, he's the man to go to.

Tal isn't the only one well versed in Taladas. I know a fair bit, as does iltharanos from what I've seen. So don't forget there are a 'pool' of resources to draw from, not just one individual.

We're a team Trampas. Remember.

Anyway, congrats Tal, you'll do great.

The Glass Sailors live in the vast desert known as the Shining Land.

*complete silence* um...where's that?

Uziel

The Shining Lands are in the central northern region of Taladas. They are effectively directly north of the Hitehkel (The Burning Sea & centre of Taladas).

Didn't mean to imply he was the only sage of Taladas around here. Just wanted to recognize his efforts is all.

lol.
I'm glad to be part of the team, folks, and grateful to be able to work with people i really respect in fandom.

And really, we all have the same source materials to work with, and the same knowledge base to draw from, so i don't consider myself sage of anything. I just happen to like taladas alot, and i know many other folks do too.

Anyway, glad to be of service.

Congrats Tal. Now you have to feel the moderators pain for dealing with me.;)

And what must one do to become a moderator...?

PS: I realise that the Forums would be Chaotic and swarming with ruthless members on the day
I become a mod!

Tal, I'm glad to see you aboard the mod wagon. You've certainly deserved the recognition and it's reassuring to have you're keen eye and vast DL wisdom involved on a higher level with these forums.

Let's not start a big to-do on this, guys.

Really, we are very lucky to have such talented and knowledgeable people in the fan community. I value the contributions of everyone.
