You asked a question I'd been wondering myself! (Though when I saw "split personality," at first I was wondering if there was going to be a joke about a similarly-voiced purple equine with her own great fondness for books, haha. Man, that sounds like an "interesting" skooma trip....)

We're doing Abnur Tharn again next time? Arrrrrgh, why can I never come up with any good questions?

Do you actually phrase the questions in character like that or do they pimp it out to be more lore-friendly?

@Asrien: That's what I actually wrote. I suspect they omit the letters that aren't lore-friendly enough; this is actually the first letter AFK has asked that's been answered. But I frequently have him ask questions when I can't think of anything GOOD to ask--like I couldn't think of a good question for Haskill, so AFK asked if Sheo liked his cheese on fire. That didn't get answered, but it was maybe two lines of text and not a very interesting question. Rohais usually asks more serious questions, and has been answered more often. (Though I will admit I don't know why they didn't like AFK's letter to the Drake of Blades.)

Cool, I sent in a question yesterday about the current state of leadership for the Imperials, trying to be as lore friendly as possible but also mentioning the question plainly and consenting to them rephrasing it to be more coherent if needed.
I really like the lore segment that gets run, it adds to the game's immersion.

It's been two weeks. When can we expect the next one of these?
