I'm actually planning to do my damndest to never go into the actual keep itself, and setting it all in Euper. So, I guess a better question would be "Are there peace bonded weapon laws in Euper?" Or, does a newcomer unicorn have to get an apple stuck on her alicorn to "peace bond" it? :) Michael Bard > I could see peace-bonding laws being a necessity in Euper, which gets a > lot of traders coming in from a lot of places.
