Creative answer Contest: Sacrata books 1-14 as the prize.

Postby Corwin Skyborn » Fri Sep 08, 2006 8:08 am

A rogue has 1 brother and 3 sisters, His mother has only 1 sister who helped raise his sisters and 2 cousins, his father has one brother and 3 sons. If the rogue were to stop speaking to one of his sisters and one of this brothers for 5 years which of his parants would have the best chance to repair the problem and get them all back onto speaking terms?

I'm bored so come up with a creative answer to claim the prize. I'll let the contest run for at least the next 3 days and hopefully find a very nice answer here so I may award this expensively collected set of Sacrata Journals. I tend to have a bad habit of spending money to buy Treasure Boxes so several of these journals cost me over 1000p each. Enjoy!

Well, If the rogue has 1 (full) brother and his father has 3 sons, he has a halfbrother, who is not the son of the mother (obviously). Assuming this halfbrother ...

Well, I'm going to cut a long answer short. Who has the most chance? The one with the most opportunities. Who will have the most opportunities? The one who lives the longest. Valorn is a dangerous place, even to assume that one of them would reach those 5 years is a liability

The Cleric Parent, with their healing words, would have the best chance to repair the situation. If, of course, they allow each party the opportunity to air their side of the story, since what had them stop talking in the first place was pretty serious (I can't believe people still DO that....). Then again, if Mom puts her foot down.... well, let's just say no one wants to see that happen.

:D

The aunt. The rogue and his siblings are unlikely to listen to their parents since children never do that, and they don't trust their father's side of the family because he has children with someone else.

As it says to the left......I talk WAY too much. ;)
And yes, I am fully aware that currently it says so to the right, rather than the left, which used to be the location for said line, but I am simply too lazy to change it for you.

you're claiming that his aunt is in fact his biological mother? hmm mabye thats why he's not speaking to certain family members..... they were hiding the secret!!! I like it!

I think Corwin missed the point! It was not the rogue who stopped speaking with is brother and sister, it were them who stopped speaking to the rogue! Who has the most chances? Both parents have just as long as the rogue gives back the purses he took from his brother and sister (which was the final drop that started this all situation!) and promise not to do it again (although I have my doubts if anyone believes the promises of a rogue)! Of course there's always another point of view: he is a rogue! The black sheep of the family! Probably they just don't want to talk with him anymore to avoid him from stealing their words or something!

the mother because the mother is the only one related to the rogue's whole family (the brother and sisters) whereas the father has only blood ties to the rogue, and two other sons from another relationship.

*she laughs* Why the mom because she will try the hardest. *smiles* No mother worth the name can stand to see her children unhappy.
*smiles happly and looks about* There is no greater calling that to give your life to save others but tell I am called to pay for that honor in the coin of my life I am going to enjoy every bit of it.
