Subject: Re: About those bodies
I have a theory about the bodies, but it involves the swords as well.  I call
it the Romulan Sword Caddy Theory.
A sword caddy is a highly trained and highly respected member of a guild that
is in service to Immortals.  A caddy has a cloak that renders him/her
invisible, hence the Romulan cloaking device name.  They follow the Immortal
that has employed their services and carry the sword, handing it to their
Immortal at the appropriate time.  They are also responsible for picking up
the coats and protecting all cards with magnetic strips during the Quickening.
Their final responsibility is seeing to the body of their Immortal should he
or she lose the battle.  Their guild has the connections to mortuaries that
ask no questions and a section of spin doctors who have all kinds of
explanations as to the why of the light show.
I'm sure these competent people have other responsibilities but they seem to
escape most notice due to the Romulan Cloak.
I hope this clears things up.  *G*

Hi all
Fortean Times 167 page 48
Immortals Among Us
a much abbreviated and changed by the editors version of my big
highlander project- real life Highlander related Forteana.
to be honest I'm very not happy with the version that got printed, but
on the other hand I wrote a thing that got printed, and it is about
Highlander.
My website will be filling up with the research I used to write the
original version of the article (seven thousand words, more than 150
seperate references) and maybe the long version of the piece if I knock
it into proper shape (some of the edits were a good idea so I have to go
back and fill in) but for right now the actual paper issue is on the
stands.
and I did graphics but they didn't print them so they're going on the
web site too.
and in case you're wondering, it isn't a letters column sort of thing,
it was an article the editor said he'd like done.  proper with payment
and everything.
so everyone go get it.  but mistakes werent by me.
later
