It's just a misspelling. I'm never surprised that an adult can't write well, given that computer-y nerds are stereotypically awkward, clumsy, don't play sports, and are hopped up on caffeine and sleep-deprived. Adulthood doesn't automatically come with grace and smoothness and refined physical coordination that cannot also be undermined.

Though it's what it looks like, "Mende" didn't make sense; and I thought it was "murder" as well. I mean: "Why did she an African ethnic group in Audale?" Nah.

Might have been quick dictation or brainstorming, writing faster than the brain can keep up.
Incidentally, the first thing I built in Dromed was the Univ of Texas at Austin main campus (or 2nd thing after my house)... way back in 2000. I was such a newbie I didn't snap anything to the grid and it was a geometry nightmare!

I'm sure Charles Whitman appreciated your efforts.

I'm not sure. My map is probably *not* the one you'd want to use to get to know your way around campus, hehe. I was still figuring out proportion and scale and how architecture works. But now that you mention it, I think my original plan was to put a bowman in the clocktower. :erm:
I never got that far. He wouldn't have been able to see a thing anyway.
I remember during campus orientation they showed us the bullet holes that still exist in walls from him. There's a real morbid fascination with him as part of the school's lore.

Thanks for your efforts. I wonder if the original Gamall conception (albeit the brethren-and-betrayer-theme existed in T2) was different from the final result, just because the plot question suggests that there are few other reasons for the Keepers to stop her. To cleanse the world of corruption could hint at a different idea as well, given that these lines are not just written down in haste.
