I'm back too and I have read the thread. Seems like things have been going on nicely.
I will post as soon as I manage, which means either tomorrow or the day after it, depending on when I'm having work.
Just one quick comment here, though. People are getting rather confusing in their uses of ´ in names. You should stay consistent on how your characters' names are spelt.
And since I'm on the topic, I may also add that Ori's name is Ori, not Óri.
