Gandalf, you are welcome to Borleg, be sure to read the latest post regarding his current role -- right now he and his men are watching the ruins of Tharbad from a hidden place on a crest not far from the location. His current mission from Saruman is to keep watch and send messages back to Saruman about *anything* that happens there. He has been warned about the approaching band, but the "you-will-know-what-to do" instructions are left purposefully vague for now. The reader can guess (and so can I, becuase I have not quite fleshed that plot point out yet...<grin>) -- it will probably get played out when we arrive.
To all the rest -- Saruman is working on you, though you do not know it yet. Even elwood might be hard-pressed to detect this one...before it's too late...bwahahahaha! Post to follow soon, revealing the insidious plot advancement. This is one subtle wizard...
Thanks, Dwarin, for reviving the thread yet again -- I've been a bit dazed by the Audience with the King thread, and helping young and under-experienced RP wannabees hone their skills. Careful of that spear, though, Dwarin...it might be more than you expect...
Once more unto the breach, dear friends!
