I'm sorry... I don't quite get this one. Why is Dudley starting all over? Has it got something to do with "Ascension day"? (Dudley ascending without AOY?)

IMO it's the way the song goes : come to my arms etc. Except I think it's Rodney who's congratulating Dudley, and reminds him that the goal of the game is not just to kill the J as in the song.

This comment is teh late, but that's not the WizardEbenezum walked before me along the closest thing we could find to a path in these overgrown woods. Every few paces he would pause, so that I, burdened with a pack stuffed with arcane and heavy paraphernalia, could catch up with his wizardly strides. He, as usual, carried nothing, preferring, as he often said, to keep his hands free for quick conjuring and his mind free for the thoughts of a mage.

The little Essex priest spoke the more simply, with his round face turned to the strengthening stars; the other talked with his head bowed, as if he were not even worthy to look at them. But no more innocently clerical conversation could have been heard in any white Italian cloister or black Spanish cathedral. The first he heard was the tail of one of Father Brown's sentences, which ended: "... what they really meant in the Middle Ages by the heavens being incorruptible." The taller priest nodded his bowed head and said: "Ah, yes, these modern infidels appeal to their reason; but who can look at those millions of worlds and not feel that there may well be wonderful universes above us where reason is utterly unreasonable?"

The last stanza is the same, but do the graphics have to be the same? I mean, it's only the same setting it's describing....

I hope this is (well, was) the last one of these.
