The challenges of time travel again.....

As you know, the Star RPG involves certain events concerning the hobbrim which, according to the great music, must not be revealed to the folk of Middle-earth until the end of time. After consultation with Bird and Pio, we are suggesting the following guidelines when dealing with time travel "secrets".

We will attempt to keep the information about the Star voyage itself hidden--hobbrim, tomb rescue, etc.--except for the general piece of news that Cami has just gotten back from a time travel journey. We will let the Shire hobbits know in what age Cami, Maura, Lindo, and the others actually live, that the Valar have arranged for their "transportation", and they'll be returning them back to the same time and place.

These restrictions apply to the Shire hobbits only. There can be free exchange of information between all visitors who arrived in the Inn via dream (from the 2nd and mid-third age), since anything too sensitive will fade away in dreamland.
