NARRATE, SHOUT, TALES

If you want to tell a tale to all the other players in the game, narrate it. All the players wanting to hear such things will receive it and all the players who don't want to be disturbed won't. You can choose to receive tales from other players using the command

listen
tales

The global communication channels are not that global, since they are restricted to either players of the same race, or at least to players of the same side of the war between Good and Evil.

Note: The effort you make when communicating with other players on a global level takes its toll. Narrating reduces your movement points.

The narrate channel is meant primarily for in-game communication. Discussions about music, movies, computers, sports and other RL related issues generally don't belong there.

If you are asked by other player(s) to take your discussion to the songs channel, you are required to do so.

shout is an alias for narrate. The output of narrate is influenced by the comprehension level of the language that is being used.

Example:

  > narrate Is it safe to travel from Bree to Fornost?
