[Mkguild] Harvest festival 'taur pulling contest

[Kit]

Heh, my bad then. I checked the story and 'twas Garigan, not Finbar who
managed the transformation. Rickkter sat out and currently has no soul
anyway, and I suppose you're right that all of your characters not on the
crazy adventure will be at Glen Avery. However though Kershaw and the humans
sat out due to inability to transform, the rest of the longs were still
there. Furthermore, the announcement of a taur hauling contest would inspire
others to figure it out as well. I seem to remember Oberon for one talking
about his character being a taur so you may wish to talk to him about that
as well. *shrug* My character for one would love to give it a shot, but I
won't be letting him taur himself any time soon and he arrives after the
festival anyway. Aside from that, I think that's all the help I can give.
