The Rape of Omindalea
locke:
Why was the rape of omindalea removed from the published appendix and is this entry still valid as it was when you posted it to the old forum?

I had no idea it was removed! I'll have to investigate...

Interesting. Just keep in mind that we discovered a sort of continuality "error" in the entry as you shared it a long while ago:

Right, see, you'd think that, but it says

Maybe the nonman children take longer to grow...
Also, welcome to the forum.

No, the problem isn't us, it's the entry.
--- Quote ---820 - The Rape of Omindalea. Jiricet, a Nonman
Siqû to the God-King Nincarû-Telesser II
(787-828), rapes Omindalea (808-825), first
daughter of Sanna-Neorjë (772-858) of the
house of Anasûrimbor in 824, and then flees
to Ishterebinth.

The entry is dated 820, but it says it occurred in 824. My guess is 824 is correct, since it was never published, it was probably never proof-read and corrected.

So it happened in 824 (not really 820) and she died in 825, meaning that it is possible that Nonman gestation could take upwards of a year (we already have mention that there are longer gestation periods for possible half-breeds, if my theory is correct).
EDIT: Mind you my last comment there is rather irrelevant, just finishing the thought that started the discussion.
Cû'jara-Cinmoi:
And it is hard to find decent scribes nowadays, since the Many-Hands have seized the lowland cities, and the Cironji pirates have shut down all commerce, including traffic in slaves.

I think you might find many willing scribes here. Some probably even willing to sell their souls to fend off the pirates, if need be!
(Full disclosure: I'll sign 50 NDA's or an indenture, whatever it might take. I'd prefer the NDAs though, as I already down a few molars thanks to genetics.)
