    EDIT: Rats' Nest will honor our obligations. If you have an Athanil trophy I will pay you 500 gold as promised.

    On the 10th of October, we'll see who has the most trophies. If Athanil is buying them back, you can take screen shots that simply show the Price of the Oracle as confirmation of the kill.

    For more details look here.

    Richard Daskas has converted Partition of Virtuous Pretense into .abc format.

    Feel free to download, use, and share the files as you journey through New Britannia. My hope is that this inspires you to tell the tale of Rat's Nest on your bardic adventures!

    The files can be found at the bottom of this page:

    Over the last few weeks I've spent a lot of time debating how to properly spell Rats Nest to be grammatically correct.

    Some people would say Rat's Nest, others would say Rats' Nest, and some might say Rats Nest. I have no idea which is actually right.

    Well it turns out that no one else knows for sure either. :) People have strong reasons to believe one is right over the others.

    But I was able to find an interesting article in the Wall Street Journal that touches on the issue of when to use an apostrophe in a town name. It's a good read, and it convinced me to change the name permanently to Rats Nest (my original spelling).

    http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424127887324244304578471252974458308

    I look forward to hearing why I'm wrong to do this in the future. :)

    That was a consideration. Felt a little too dude-ish for me.

    If people want to call it Ratz, of course they can do as they wish.
