Online Reservations
My friends and I had dinner after attending the Opera opening nd had a great time. It was still restaurant week and Tinto had a nice selection of dishes to choose from. The gazpacho was very good as was the pulpo for the first course. For the second course we tried the organic chicken and he sea bass with were both done expertly. The drinks from the bar were also well prepared. There was all a dessert included which everyone finished. We had very good service nd everyone was very friendly even though it was the end of a busy Friday night service. I would highly recommend Tinto to anyone that has never been before.
The food was so delicious! I loved the salad, the bacon-wrapped figs, and especially the cheese with apple slices and jam. The octopus was heavenly, and the bamba rice was wonderful. I can't wait to go back, and I loved the red wine pairing.
The "Deluxe" Tasting Menu is one of the best all around meal's in Philadelphia. This is the fourth time I've ordered it and the only complaint I had from the previous visits was that the food runners were delivering the courses too quickly and there was a pile up of plates on our table. This was not a problem during my last visit and made for an extremely enjoyable tour of Tinto's imaginative menu. We also ordered the wine pairing for the tasting menu and, as always, the server was innately knowledgeable of everything put in front of us. Prior to my visit I called and asked the hostess to make special accommodations for my girlfriend's birthday (candle in dessert). She assured me they would take care of this. Unfortunately, it did not.
One of our favaorite spots. Went for my wife's birthday. LIved up to our expectations. Sat in a booth in the downstairs section where it is much more quiet and private. Chose the Grand Chef's selection (a few additional "premium" selections for $10 more per person) and left it in the chef's hands. Everything that came out was delicious. eclectic pairing of foods and spices - a foodie's paradise. Higest recommendation.
Ok so I am a New York snob now, but this place is better than anything we have in New York for tapas. Honestly I have never eaten better tapas in my life other than in the king of tapas town of Honorabia in Spain just outside San Sebastian. Every single dish was outstanding and the place is so very pretty like the coolest tapas places in Barcelona. I will long to have dinner at Tinto for months. Already scheming how to get my boyfriend to take me back to Philly just so I can eat here again.
Good vegetarian options. Pete was a great server. Enjoyable time!
My wife and I had the chef's tasting menu (the $75 menu) with wine pairings. The menu was delicious. We enjoyed all the courses. The wine was good, not great...I'm not sure the pairings were quite a "special" as I had anticipated. The only issue we had was it seemed as though the courses were being brought out to us a bit too fast. But overall we really enjoyed our meal, and we will definitely go back again.
We had the tasting menu, and enjoyed every dish that came out. I did not appreciate the server's attitude toward my parents visiting from Asia and toward me.
Everyone in our party loved Tinto. The service was incredible and the food was delicious....except for dessert. We were all sorely disappointed after how fabulous the main dishes were that dessert was almost inedible.
The sea bass, the piaya, the duck, the almonds, the green beans, the pulled pork sandwiches and a bottle of Spanish wine. It was one of the best meals I have ever had.
We ordered the tasting menu, and were treated to a variety of delicious treats. Every single dish was fantastic and the three of us enjoyed sharing everything from prawns to potatoes. We accompanied it sangria, which was one of the best we've had. Service was attentive and the service was paced just right. I can't wait to go back!
Food is really special, and the sangria wonderful!
This was our first time at Tinto, although it is in our neighborhood and we walk past it everyday. We both tried the Chef's tasting. It was quite delightful and our service could not have been better. We plan to go back and order individual dishes. Looking forward to another meal there.
We made a reservation at Tinto not realizing it was a tapas restaurant. After hemming and hawing about what to order, we decided on the Chef's Tasting. WoW!! what a great choice!! Every plate (9 total) brought to our table was better than the last. I can't wait to go back to TINTO! Our server was adorable and the service was excellent!!
The four of us were completely satisfied with our meal that included figs, serono ham, manchego cheese, short ribs, octopus, Kobe beef and more. Our server explained everything we needed to know, and suggested doubling a couple of dishes that came with only two tastes. The Spanish wine list, while not lengthy, is comprehensive. One from most of the categories is sold by the glass. Our server described this as "northern Spanish" as opposed to Amada's "southern" fare. Dinner for four, with 2-3 glasses of wine each, came to about $280 with tip.
My husband & I went to an early dinner there and the food was very good. He fell in love with short ribs there and he loved the scallops as well. The wine selection was great, which I really appreciated.
My husband and I took my parents to Tinto when they were visiting from out of town. We opted for the "luxe" tasting menu with the wine pairing option. There was so much food (almost too much), and the chef's selections provided a wonderful variety. The service was wonderful, and the pacing and progression of the various plates was just right. I strongly recommend!
This was my second trip to Tinto...the first time was just a matter of wandering around after a conference and stumbling upon it, this time was intentional. After a bit of a wait to get a table that we liked (the first offered was right under a speaker on the bar side...little too noisy) we settled in and enjoyed. The staff was lovely, although we suspect the waitress forgot one of our tapas orders. But it was worth the wait. The food is great here! If you love small plates and variety it can't be beat, and we found the prices very reasonable. Will definitely go back. Chef/owner also operates another restaurant called Amada - probably worth checking out.
Though criticized some time back for an unchanging menu, Tinto's standard offerings remain as satisfying as ever, now with additions like the Melon Gazpacho that add sparkle and novelty. Their wines, as ever, offer pleasing quality and variety, and complement their food well. The Bombay Sapphire Martini I ordered to start was excellent. So lots of reasons to keep coming back!
I've taking my wife on "date night" and this has included Helium Comedy club recently. We were pressed for time and the wait staff was excellent, promptly bringing us our wine and tapas in a timely manner so that we could enjoy the wine and food and make the show. The lamb was tender and the sauce excellent and the rice was out of this world. So creamy, since I believe it is made with Manchego cheese I see why its a favorite among the patrons. The grilled octopus was not one of my favorites. It was overly chewly and lacked the grilled smoked flavor. Best Grilled Octopus try the Waterworks or Estia both in Phila. Also noteworthy was the waiters suggestion on the wine. One of the best bottles I've had. The Ostatu Reserve 2007 Rioja.
I remember liking Tinto on our first visit, but this time was even better, both in service and food. We had a larger party this time and so got to try more different tapas, and all were very good. Also saved room for dessert, which was very good. Only letdown was the sangria, which is not as good as Tequila's, a few blocks away.
We have been fans of tapas as an interesting way to dine. The Basque variation at Tinto was an step further into interesting cuisine. We had a nice table in the lower level [OK, basement] that was a little more private and quiet, great for conversation. All the food was very good and the waiter masterfully explained those unfamiliar dishes. Wine choices by the glass were good Spanish vintages that matched the cuisine and enough variety for any palate. Overall a great experience.
I took my boyfriend here for his birthday and we were both thrilled with our experience. We have tried many other Garces restaurants in the city, and Tinto is up there with one of our favorite meals. We both experienced the tasting menu, which I must say truly is an experience. Come hungry for this one! The amount of food was great for the price. We both agreed that we really enjoyed the tasting menu but that there were other things on the menu we wish we tried, but that just means we have to go back! I highly recommend Tinto for a fun night out, for a celebration or for a top quality food and service experience.
I would highly recommend the chef's tasting, the upgraded version at $75....TOTALLY worth it. Also, dress in layers, the temperature was very warm in the restaurant. Enjoy!
Everything we ordered was delicious. A little pricey but great. Service was excellent I highly recommend.
I love tapas style meals, where you can taste everything. And there were so many great menu choices, we definitely chose one too many dishes. Every one was just stellar, though our highlights were the haricot vert with sherry dressing, marcona almonds, dates and orange, and the tender, flavorful short rib sandwich. Sad that I don't live near by. Loved every bite.
I can not say enough good things about my dinner Sunday might! I was there with my mom. After talking about the chestnut soup for 3 years, she had to try it for herself. We got the tasting menu, insisting the soup be apart of it. Our waitress was accommodating and was so sweet all evening. The food was awesome and we will be back soon!!!
Excellent food, excellent wine, very good service, but a little more smile would make the experience outstanding. I would recommend this place to everybody that can appreciate what wonderful food is all about. Go for it! No hesitation.
Really good food...tastes and textures and flavors like nowhere else...beautifully presented...imaginatively devised. Service was outstanding...three of us had the Chef's Tasters Item, and since I don't eat meat, my plates were made especially for me, and they were lovely...Great Cocktails, too...
We had the chefs tasting for our anniversary. The waitress was friendly and knowledgable. The food was flavorable and filling. The waitress wasn't kidding when she said she hoped we brought our appetite because it would be a lot of food. Staff was VERY attentive! We are looking to going back again!
We visited Tinto 2.5 years ago and had the chestnut soup, it was the same creamy delicious bowl that I remembered. Our server Melissa was excellent and did a wonderful job of not just serving, but making you feel welcome. Our anniversary dinner was excellent with 6 courses, some tempranillo, and splitting the dessert. I'm not waiting two and a half years to return!
This was our second trip to Philadelphia and since we had been to Tinto once we wanted to try it again. Jose Garces is amazing! He really knows how to combine flavors and textures. The short rib and scallops were our favorites. I love the small plate idea and his modern spin on traditional Basque food is exceptional. I am slowly working my way through his beautiful photos and recipes in "The Latin Road Home".
Ask to sit downstairs if you want a corner booth that is intimate/private, quiet and easy to hear/ have a convo!
Service was great, food was delicious, and the ambiance provided a very intimate and romantic vibe for a great date night :)
The tables are too close together. I felt as if I was on a date with not only the girl I was with but with the two couples to my sides. The lamb was pretty amazing.
Great food; very energetic atmosphere until around 11:00 at which time you can engage in quiet conversation
What really made the meal was the knowledge of the staff and their willingness to discuss the many choices with you. Our meal felt like a guided tour. The pace of bringing the next selcetions was well managed with enough time to not feel rushed. The only detraction from our experience was the facility itself. If you sit at a table for two, be prepared to be very close to your neighbors and occasionally have their servers backside in your face. Would definitely go back with four people so we can sit at the better tables.
This is a great place to introduce someone to tapas. The food is amazing, the service is top notch, and the wines are delicious. You will not be disappointed as there is something for everyone onthe menu!
The tapas were great. I think the lamb that we got was the best I ever had. Also had a salad and a cheese platter. The food and ambience was great. The wine list had a lot of foreign wines on it and we spent a pretty penny on a bottle but Napa wines are better. So just get a glass (my recommendation). We both really enjoyed this restaurant and would come back here again.
One of my wife's very favorite spots, we enjoyed another amazing meal. We would go more but I cannot stand going as a table of 2 and sitting on top of the other tables around us. There is no privacy and you are limited in what conversation you can have. Mussels, shrimp, sea bass, kobe beef and chicken in a shot glass were all awesome.
We went for my mom's birthday dinner. All 4 of us liked every single thing we ordered. We enjoyed the small plates and sharing. Everything was delicious!
I've been to Tinto several times over the last couple of years and the food and service are always great. They sat us in a drafty area so that was unpleasant but otherwise the experience is consistently great.
Still one of the best spots in the city and still one of the tastiest pulpo dishes in town. This place has it all.
A few girlfriends and I went to Tinto and had a fabulous time. The atmosphere is cozy and friendly. We all enjoy tapas so this place was a great fit. Dishes were timed well with an excellent presentation. The Sangria was a perfect balance with just the right amount of fruit. You can't beat the prices for the variety of dishes to sample. The bar is small, so get there early for a good seat. Look forward to returning soon!
Special day for girlfriend and I. Heard good things and decided to check it out. We ate early, 5:30. Seated right away, coats checked for us, had a view of the kitchen which for us was a plus. Food was fairly priced, delicious and arrived quickly. Ordering a series of small plates worked great and we shared everything. I'm a fan of Iron Chef and of Chef Garces. I would absolutely recommend Tinto to everyone I know.
You have to try the chestnut soup! The prices and quality of food is also very reasonable.
Each time it get's better! My husbands favorite restaurant.
The food quality was exceptional. I am also a chef and I enjoyed it.
I'm not sure which was better; the food or service! Don't hesitate to try this place. You won't be disappointed.
Food - We had the tasting menu. I would recommend it to anyone who's trying Tinto for the first time. All of the food was great and they were able to accommodate everyone's food restrictions and palate selections. Service - Perfect. Despite being extremely late in the evening, we never felt rushed. The staff was pleasant throughout the entire evening and was able to make great recommendations on food and drinks. Ambience - Again, we were there pretty late at night, and so the restaurant was fairly quiet. We sat at the bar while we waited for our table, and that seemed pretty busy. Overall - A great dining experience and would highly recommend it.

A photon is a concentrated packet of the EMF that was formed, as were all particles, in the early moments of the BB during extreme conditions of heat and pressure and turbulence. The particles can only be formed during such extremes.
As the U expanded and cooled the particles stabilized.
The retinas of our eyes are analogue receptors and not digital. They therefore cannot detect photons.
The response curves are standard analogue bell curves as in standard analogue filter design.
Our retinas have red, green and blue receptors.
We only see a limited range of the electromagnetic spectrum.
As analogue receptors they detect waves in the EMF.
These waves are formed by the passage of photons which create a shock wave front.
The more photons following each other the greater the frequency of wave fronts and the higher the energy per second.
The energy of a single photon is 6.62x 10(-34) Joules or watt/second.
Therefore it has mass.
In the two slit experiment. The photon doesn't have to go through two slots. Only the shock waves do, to cause interference patterns.
So there is no duality to light.
A photon is a particle, and a wave is a disturbance in the field caused by the passage of the photon. These are separate phenomena.

Yeah, you bet they are. Still yucking it up like the minstrel show westerners that they are. I really resent that the only western people who get on TV in Japan are total fuckwits who play down to the Japanese expectation of "the foreigner" stereotype. Grr. Hulk smash.

The cool idea I have is that I'm designing the program so that it adapts its character set to be at your level. For instance, when you first start out, everything is in romaji, and as you practice and master kana, it switches to kana, and for every kanji you learn, sentences that use that word will use the kanji. I want to make it fun so it's not so tedious, and I guess when I'm done with it I'll release it as open source, but are there any cool features or game ideas you'd like to see to help you learn Japanese?

all of the classrooms at my school have computers. Sometimes we have study sessions for Japanese in different rooms.

Notes from the Netherworld Library - IntroductionNo Overlord has yet realized that there is another library. When or if one of them does find the other library, the results aren't likely to be happy, at least not for Gnarl.Notes from the Netherworld Library - Introduction1 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
The other library has always been in the Netherworld. It contains Gnarl's collection of research on minion mythology, his notes on Tower management, and his chronicles of all the Overlords, complete with his honest assessment of said Overlords' abilities.
Since no Overlord has ever been particularly mild-tempered, the result of any of them ever seeing Gnarl's notes is likely to be... fiery.
Fortunately for the old Minion Master, there is only one Overlord who is likely to ask, and he is currently trapped in the Infernal Abyss.
Gnarl is not the first minion ever spawned, but he is one of the first generation, and the oldest minion alive. Mortis is from his generation, although spawned some years later. Giblet was once trained to follow Gnarl as a Minion Chieftain, a position that was later abandoned w

A great paladin she was to wed.
Once he was a mighty hero, but now a foppish fool.
Admittedly he was handsome, but he had what she wanted.
His power, his riches. Those were what she wanted.
Then "he" came along.
Clad in armor, putrid smelling creatures at his side, giggling and chattering.
Immediately she was taken by his body and his looks. Metal made imposing features.
She used her charms, her wiles. She had done this man a time, and every time a man was ensnared; in the end they were tossed aside.
But something happened, something she didn't expect. He rejected her. He stayed loyal to his misstress; her sister.

"Fire in hole!" Cham called out as he ignited the gunpowder trail as everyone cleared way out of the cellars and hid among the counters in the kitchen. There was a loud boom as the ground rattled and vibrated, making the pots and pans shake in place. Rollick looked over as smoke bellowed out from below. He coughed slightly as he waved the air to help clear it away.
"Did it work?"
"Let go see!" Cham said eagerly as he hurried down as the others soon caught up to the minion. They found Cham staring at the wall. They had managed to blow away most of the debris but the path was still blocked.
Demeter walked up and growled, "Damnit!" he snarled.
Qeb was beside himself. Grimm had to smack the minion upside the head to calm him down but he too, began to feel the fear for the Master rise up in his throat. What if they couldn't get to them in time?

Malkor was slumped slightly against the wall. He was tired and thirsty. They had run out of water. The minions around him were dying off faster than he realized. Even Gnarl himself was struggling. Malkor leaned his head back. He had shed down to his tunic and pants to help reduce sweating. The minions had been gone for at least a day, if his calculations were correct.
It was only a matter of time before he completely lost it due to hallucinations. Minion blood was something he was not going to resort to. He'd rather die by dehydration than drink their blood, even if they sacrificed it for him. They'd have to force feed him.
Gnarl walked up. "Sire?"
Malkor slowly opened his blood-shot eyes. The normal red glow had dimmed down to a mere flicker, and the minion could see they were truly red, in a very bad way. "Sire, please! Drink, I know it's not of something of your desire, but it will strengthen you." Gnarl pulled out the small water-blad

So much for relaxation. "Explain." He strode to his throne, dropped into it.
Gnarl's ears dropped. "It's the gate nearest the old tower, Sire. It ceased to be accessible while you were conquering Aquilonis."
Thorn frowned, and called up the Tower map. The magical device showed him all the Netherworld Gates in his lands, and allowed him to see what lay in the area immediately around the major gates.
He focused on the wastelands, glaring at the map when he saw that the minor gate less than a day's march from the old tower was indeed no longer present. The other minor gate, close to a week's march distant, seemed intact, and he could see no change in the ruined lands near the major gate. "Have there been any other reports?"
The old minion frowned. "None that suggested any problems, Sire. Southern R
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 1 P2When Gnarl woke, he wasn't entirely surprised to find himself staring up at a three-horned helm that hadn't been in this world in close to twenty years. The glowing white eyes that were all the helm let him see of its owner only proved that his memory was correct.Notes from the Netherworld Library - Chapter 1 P21 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
Well, that's going to put a crimp or two in Master Thorn's style. "Apologies, Lord. I'm not as young as I once was, and after so many years, we'd thought you must be dead, with all the wraiths after you." Gnarl climbed to his feet. He knew he was rambling, but for some reason he couldn't stop the words tumbling from his mouth. "Pity, really, I rather like the boy, but there it is. I can only serve the most senior candidate as it were. I do regret that I never could serve you properly before."
The Minion Master swallowed. "Master?" He couldn't be mistaken. This could not be anyone but Master Doniel, miraculously returned from the Infernal Abyss.
"I know." A little amusement crept into the Master's voice.
Notes from the Netherworld Library - Prologue P2They entered his temple as they saw themselves: the Jester in his two-tone green belled cap, clawed hand clutching the skull-topped staff with its smaller belled cap. He stayed behind Mardis, who wore the Overlord armor with its iconic tri-horned helm. The wraiths escorting the pair were highly amused, and Doniel would have been shocked if there were no side bets on how they'd respond.Notes from the Netherworld Library - Prologue P21 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
The confidence in Mardis's stance was proof enough that he expected to be met by the Forgotten God.
Understanding arrived: the Jester hadn't seen the Forgotten God's death. He'd fled before Doniel had blasted flame through the creature's mouth, before the mortally-wounded God had fallen into his pit. The Jester thought the hordes of wraiths were closing for a kill and was escaping so he and his Overlord passenger weren't mistakenly destroyed with them.
Both believed they were being brought to receive their promised reward.
Mardis faltered, stopped. The Overlord helm concealed his expression

Doniel remembered falling. Remembered seeming to hang in air that buffeted him while the Overlord fought to take over his mind. Overlord Mardis, who'd all but defeated the band Sir William the Black had assembled, who'd been laughing as magical winds drove even the giant Khan to his knees.
Remembered pain from ribs broken when he'd been tossed against the wall early in the battle. Doniel had lain there, ignored by the Overlord's minions, until he'd realized he was near the balcony and that the Overlord stood with his back to the open space, all attention on the heroes.
Overlord Mardis never expected to be tackled by an injured hero, and fell.
Doniel remembered that. Remembered, too, the way the ground loomed when the Overlord's body went limp, in that moment before the impact that smeared the Overlord across the jagged rocks drove everything out. It hadn't hurt, at first. There'd been no room for pain.
Then, when pain rose, the welcome blackness. And waking in a tomb, where th

Moving silently, a hooded figure kneeled down by the strange creature. The said figure had been watching it from afar, slowly deciding what it was and why it was so far from the forest. The creature had washed up not too far away from Farmstead, a small farmland in the land of Greenvale. The humans, to the figure's amazement, were decent farmers, for being humans.
Very carefully, the figure picked up the small, frail body, before quickly hurrying off just as a group of farmers pulling a wagon came to the area as they hid behind a tree.
"What we gonna do about them halflin's? They're eating all my crops!" one farmer complained.
"If the lord and lady weren't so caught up on all the problems with em' elves, we'd have a better harvest if those pint sized pigs weren't eatin' em all," the other one replied.

It was a hollow feeling. Here he was the master of this domain, nay the god. Servants obeyed his every command, they had no choice after he slew the Forgotten God. Occasionally there were problems with the dwarves and Halflings, yet they were dead so they would simply respawn in moments. The same applied to the many minions that lulled about, undead minions that is, and not of the kind he had grown accustomed to. It was in these rare instances of idleness, he removed his helmet.
Another wraith filled his cup. Sipping it slowly his thoughts turned to the world above. Quilt would pay for his treachery, that is if the minions hadn't done so already. Those were the days, good old bad days, as Gnarl would put. If anything this recent excursion had done, it was add a little excitement. Admittedly, he enjoyed his earlier exploits, conquering the lands, slaying would be heroes, and now this.

The crash made the Netherworld Tower shake. That would have been bad enough, but the sound of minion voices singing very drunk minion voices, singing very, very badly made Gnarl wince. He had to force himself not to look at the throne. More particularly, he had to work at not looking at the occupant of the throne.
Never mind that this Overlord, having been raised by minions from the age of seven or eight Gnarl had never been good at estimating human ages was more tolerant of their antics than most. There were limits, and a Master who'd been going over the business of his realm since he returned from eliminating the Glorious Empire wasn't likely to appreciate minion partying.
Another crash, and more singing. It was just as well the Master had never learned the minion dialect. He was still young not much more than a boy, really, for all that he'd been remarkably successful and he didn't take well to his... well... exploits in the

He woke up to the cage being banged, startled, he flew to the back of the wall. His eyes darted from side to side. Where was he? This place, it smelled so revolting! Ew! Smelly bad place! Smelly bad place! He held his nose trying to block out the smell.
"Look! The little red-thing is finally awake," a voice said, as the cage was banged around again.
He cringed, pressing his body flat against the wall, his glowing chest panting hard. "Let me out!" he called out to them. "Let me out!"
"It speaks!" The voices retorted, as laughter filled the air. Again, the cage was banged around before whoever was banging the cage left. The laughter going with them. He cautiously made his way up to the front of the cage, peeking out. "Hello?" his voice called out.
"Pyrros wake! Pyrros wake!" Another voice, sounding similar to his own, called out.
All around him, he saw other cages with creatures the same as him. They all had red skin with glowing yellow stom

Thorn glared at his sire. "I will not be your pet lapdog."
"I want you to rule in my name, not be my lackey." The God rose from his throne.
"I rule for myself." He hadn't fought for anyone but himself: Thorn would be cursed before he'd permit anyone to claim his victories.
His sire stepped forward until he stood directly in front of Thorn. "You will rule in my name if I have to break you to it." His eyes glowed with fierce power.
Despite his body urging him to submit, Thorn returned the glare, the fury. "Just try." The air between them no more than six inches crackled with power. "I'm no use to you dead."
For a long, long moment there was no response, only the hard white glare from the God's eyes. When he spoke, his voice was calmer. "Perhaps we should settle this in the traditional manner. You and me, in the Dungeon training ground, first to submit loses."
"You lose if you call on anything but what you had as Overlord," Thorn retorted.

Thorn returned to his throne room only after venting his rage on another prisoner, one of those sent to the Netherworld for execution when the Overlord so desired. He needed to be able to think clearly, something that was difficult at best when he was overwhelmed by the need to kill.
He really did need Gnarl intact and undamaged, unfortunately. The old Minion Master was the only creature in the Tower who knew how everything worked a weakness he couldn't permit. It had cost him too much already.
Gnarl looked startled although this was hardly the first time Thorn had returned from the dungeons with his armor liberally spattered with blood by Thorn's appearance.
"Erm, Master? Perhaps you might wish to remove the entrails before you repair to the private quarters?"
He blinked, looked down. Perhaps he had been a little more vigorous than usual. What spattered his armor was rather more solid than he usually tracked up to the throne room.

Kaff smelled sleepy-stuff. He knew the smell from when the Mistresses used it, only never this strong. He rubbed his eyes, then grabbed a spare rag from the pile meant for the Master's spawnlings and wrapped it around his face, over his mouth and nose. That made him not so sleepy.
He took one of Mistress Juno's thin scarf things from a different shelf in the storage room, and draped it over his head so he wasn't getting sleepy-stuff in his eyes but he could still see, mostly. He remembered Horde minions talking about that trick, for when the air got stingy in nasty places.
Kaff crept out of the storage room, and peeked into the main room of the private quarters. In time to see a nurse-slave put Master's spawnlings in a big basket and hurry from the room. The nurse-slave had a rag around her mouth and nose, too, and all the other nurse-slaves were asleep.
This was bad.

Gnarl expected the Master to visit the forge early, but not to go directly from there to the library the official library or to be summoned to his Master's presence. Usually Master Thorn preferred to be alone in his library.
Seeing him waiting with his arms crossed and eyes narrowed did nothing for Gnarl's state of mind. "Lord?" It was odd enough Master Thorn not wearing armor. Gnarl had half expected the Master to return via the Armory wearing one of his older suits of armor.
Instead, Master Thorn wore the dark red pants and white shirt he'd worn when he returned yesterday, and a pair of sealskin slippers that had seen better days. He hadn't even tied his hair back as he usually did, so the auburn mass curled around his shoulders in a way Gnarl hadn't seen since the Master had been a boy.
Strange times, Gnarl thought. He didn't like that: strangeness was unpredictable and ruined the nice orderly advance of Evil across the world. Chaos was s

Gnarl blinked when Master Thorn returned to the throne room. He'd expected the Master to take his time with the traitor.
"You've notified them all?" the Master asked without preamble. Within moments of him dropping into his throne the fingers of his left hand tapped restlessly on the stone arm.
"Yes, Sire. Every port has your orders." Apparently his time in the dungeons hadn't been sufficient to work off his temper: that meant Gnarl would need to tread carefully. He was accustomed to soothing ruffled Overlordly tempers, but never before after something he considered a failure.
The simple truth was that Gnarl couldn't remember ever having failed his Overlord this catastrophically, and he had no idea what he should do.
Master Thorn nodded. "Good." He beckoned.
Gnarl sighed under his breath and obeyed the silent command.
"Explain." That single word was accompanied by a fierce glare.
Gnarl's ears drooped. "Apologies, Sire." This was definitely a time when st

Someone was bouncing on him. Anger quickly flowed into him, breaking him of his dreamful slumber and into the wake of reality as he opened his single and only good eye. "Get hell off me!" he snarled as he quickly reeled up and slashed at the moron jumping on him.
The minion rolled backward before landing down flat on his stomach as the one minion with the one eye glared over at him sleepily. "Demy awake!" the minion grinned wide."
"What me tell of what happens with name?" Demeter growled as he slowly got to his feet, stretching and giving a wide yawn.
"Me get ears ripped apart!" the idiotic minion shouted with glee.
Demeter looked at him before lying back down and rolling over, his back turned to him. It amazed Demeter that the moron was even an Ancient, and . . . more so to his astonishment, alive.

The six minions ran up to the wall as Qeb tried to rip out the stones but only in succeeded in breaking off a few of his claws as he slammed his fists onto the stone. "Master! Master!" he cried hysterically. They had failed . . .
Grimm growled as he threw down his knife in anger. Spoon and Egg slumped to the ground. Steve got quiet as his ears dropped. "How we get to Ancients now?" he asked quietly.
Qeb walked back as Grimm helped wrap up his now bleeding fingers in a cloth he had found. "Me . . . . Don't know," Qeb whimpered. Grimm felt his own ears fall flat as he too sat down beside Egg and Spoon. The minions were at a lose. Their master couldn't hold out for much longer and everyone, the whole brown tribe, was counting on them to make it out.
Cham looked at the wall as he walked up and tapped at the stones. The stones were too snug in place for them to try to dig out. He sighed as he too sat on the floor, playing with his tail when a scent filled

Malkor held them back as long as he could as the minions leaped forward at the Halflings. There was no way in hell he was letting the castle fall siege to the vermin. He blasted them back with a fury of his fire, uncaring if he drained himself. He would gradually build it up again. He just wanted the short bastards dead.
The Halflings fell before his small horde of minions and to his own blasts of fire, lightning and his axe blade. He stood panting for a while as there was a rumble in the air. Every sense in his body screamed at him to run. "Minions . . . Fall back!" He called and not too soon as the tunnels began to collapse around them. The Halflings fled from the scene. Malkor snarled as he was forced back to the middle chamber.
He stopped and studied the rock walls around him as the entire chamber shook and rattled. Once the dust had settled, he cautiously walked out

Cham ran for his little-known life. Behind him, almost on his tail, the Halflings chased after him. He was fast but so were they, for having so short legs. He ran down through the maze-like tunnel system of the Halfling burrows. Where he was, he hadn't a clue in hell.
He just ran.
Screaming like a girl.
Cham knocked over anything and everything he could to slow down the growing Halfling numbers. Cham wasn't strong enough to keep up a good fireball tossing or to seriously light anything ablaze. He had to make do with what he could.
He ran down the hallway lost in the maze. He panted hard as he rounded another dead corner. "Dead end?!" He cried as he listened. They were looking for him. He didn't want to die just yet. He especially didn't want to die by drowning for the amusement of the Halflings. "Stupid fat pigs," he growled as he looked around.
He turned around and darted back down the hall turning the corner . . . only to haul ass right bac
