Cami: I'm rushing around like mad right now but I'll PM Arien tomorrow if I can.

I skimmed over the thread except for Cami’s last post (I really must hurry)—fine work all of it and welcome back Manardariel (I’ll get right to answering your PM by the way). I do have one slight concern, however. It’s minor really and I noticed Ealasaid touched on it as well but it would be terribly unwise for Dol Amroth women to spread an anecdote about the Morthaniawens. That’s two falsehoods against Dol Amroth families and both would be absconded from the Citadel therefore accomplishing nothing for either contingent. I did notice that you also gave up the idea but just to write it down in stone here... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Anyone—but mostly Lyra and Varda: I also have an idea somewhere around here. Since—please think unbiasedly on this—Emilia and Elena are both sort of committed friends of Dryea’s, would it not be appropriate that they take her side without hesitation? I read Varda’s reflection on the rumors and it seemed dubious towards the truthfulness of the rumors discrediting the Lady Finduilas, who, Dryea inferred, if proven guilty of the accusations would damper the Morthaniawen’s reputations (perhaps) since they also hail from Dol Amroth. It would seem one would jump to defend one’s friend. I touch more on this below...

I’m getting a bit nervous now at the balance between good vs. evil. How long do the Morthaniawens keep their allies oblivious to the truth? How far does the Dol Amroth contingent get to uncovering the truth? Will there be any Minas Tirith women willing to stand up for the Morthaniawens during this whole business or are we all going to place our characters in the position of innocence and cast aside Ruiel’s extremely clever rumor mongering? I beg some of you to please accept the role of the giddy noblewoman your character is and take the logical side of the long-residing Morthaniawens over the newly arrived Finduilas and company. Lyra and Varda I’d really like your help in keeping Dryea completely free of blame. Logically there’s nothing against her but things can change quite suddenly. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I start school Monday and will not be able to keep on the very top of things. My contributions will dwindle to an average portion but I shall still put forth the best effort I can. If you’ll excuse me *yawn* I think it’s sleep for me to time and get my rest beauty. ZzZzZzzZzzzZzzzz...
