My post is finished; the Gondorians have just been captured. Some quick notes:
* Pearlle and Packs are dead.
* Devon is not mentioned - I didn't presume to guess how he was doing after the last battle.
* I did not mention specific survivors because I don't know in what state of repair you'd like your characters to be in. After two such hard-fought fights, Calnan himself isn't doing just terrific.
* If anyone cares to write a vignette of Marx's Boromir-like death scene, feel free and I'll incorporate it. Otherwise, I guess he'll still be alive. My invention of horrors is running a little short.
As usual, any comments/complaints/corrections invited. I've done my best, and I must say - I'm exhausted! I hope it's good.
Carrying on,
Nuranar
