Fordim - I want to publicly applaud a wonderful post. I'm glad we, as readers, have gotten to experience another well-written letter to Prim. Great work.

I am working on a general post for Marcho to bring us to the river. I will suggest that everyone waits for that post before constructing river posts, because....well, you'll see.

Anyhoo, let's keep going. I'm looking forward to Regin's post, and I will be sure Marcho overhears the apology and such.

Regin Hardhammer · 04-16-2004, 10:31 AM

Alak, Kransha,

A red-faced Harold has apologized. If you want something different about your characters, let me know.

I pushed the post forward so it will come after May's reunion with her dad. That seemed to make more sense.

Alright, Regin, I will put up a response post tomorrow (waiting for other SAVES to be filled). Forgive my minor absence, but I've been, as they say, swamped.

I put a general SAVE before my last post for anyone who might need it. If you do, either place your post here or PM me and I will get it on the thread.

New drama...let's see our heroes in action! Alora must be saved, so we need some swimmers. Have fun!

Kransha · 04-17-2004, 07:25 AM

My save is up, and it is indeed a long one. I used a bit of Marcho in there, so tell me if I need to change anything, alak. Other than that, I will wait for one or two posts before adding a post about Kal's response to Alora's unfortunate incident in the Baranduin.

Alak - What are you going to do with Adelard? I have an idea. His arm is supposed to be broken, so he should be laid up for a while. Since May's on a guilt trip about it, she could be the one who nurses Adelard back to health (And please understand, this doens't mean she actually likes Addey

). Or that could even be her punishment for taking the Whitfoots into the forest. Either way, she's going to resent it, even if she does feel guilty. It would be a wonderful opportunity for both May and Adelard to improve some major character flaws, but, of course, this only works if you keep posting for Adelard. Tell me what you think!

Memory - I think that is a fantastic idea. I can see the two of them bumping heads along the way...could be interesting, and definitely fun to write. I will let you begin...maybe I could have Adelard throw a fit in my SAVE and that could prompt the punishment. What do you think?
