Fordim Hedgethistle has been trapped in the Barrow!
I had been pondering the issue of saves in this game -- and had not really achieved any resolution for myself. I'm glad that our esteemed Mod has stepped in.

I think it might be best if we do NOT have saves in the game, as we do need to keep things moving forward, rather than back. That having been said, if you do need to go back, we can still do that in one of two ways:

1) a flashback sequence, or remembering something that happened earlier -- my preferred method as it will allow a character to cover ground, but to focus on the present action

2) if it's imperative that there be a post inserted earlier in the action, then we can ask someone to insert it at the end of their post at the logical point.

My apologies for not working this through earlier, particularly to Oro.
