I can read/write Runic alphabet (based on traditional Celtic druidic runes.)
That would be Ogham, correct? I picked that up while researching for my Ars Magica saga in Ireland.

Yes, that would be one name for it.

I would imagine chinese would be hard to learn, Is it?

Damn difficult. Its tonal so the word  yi can mean 14 different things depending on how you pronounce it.  If you're going to learn a language its easier if it isn't a tonal language for damn sure.


Lily is cool isn't she?  I think I'll be letting her have a boyfriend; I like the whole Cheyenne/Cantonese connection...

For difficult languages look no further than Papua New Guinea. It has about 800+ langauges Info

Much to learn. All different.

And Navajo. I've heard that if you weren't born learning Navajo, you could never learn it. . . It is both tonal, logic-parsed, and has contextual grammar. One phrase could have about 200 meanings depending if you raised your voice, lowered it, dragged a vowel, whatever. Needless to say, I have no knowledge in it.

And about your latest Excerpt. Very nice. Kinda a shame how even love can be dangerous in the sixth world. . .

At least Red and Lily seemed to hit it off. Good luck to them!

He's the same guy we took to see the shaman last excerpt.  The  older more world weary partner.

I'm sorry about any confusion.  It is tough reading out of sequence like this but I'm posting the bits that I'm polishing/editing at the moment.  When its done I promise it'll make a lot of sense.

I like Ray as a character. Is he the gruff older Shadowrunner type? Or the type who just survives at any cost?

A bit of both.  He's mid to late thirties, ex military, ex lonestar, no alligiences...unless he calls you friend - then he walks through blood to back you.  Red's a bit more idealistic but he has the same loyalty gene.
