I put up a Save for Airefalas that will take place in the Evening of Day One. If anyone has something planned that needs to come before that, please let me know. I can relocate my save!

EDIT: Oooh... upon re-reading Child's outline, it looks like there is a lot to be done prior to that. Yikes! I'll just delete my save and wait to place my post until the right moment arises.

However, I think the true answer is to add more hours to the day, and I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

Cut and Paste?

Hilde,

If you can do that, please be my guest....

Ealasaide -

I have the same problem you do. My post for Rama will be in the early evening. I am hesistent to put it up mainly because there should presumably be some reaction to Sorona's vision by the Elders and the community at large....

How about if we posted several saves for this reaction, and Ealasaide and I then went on to put up our evening posts? Will that work for other people?

Would the outline below work for people? Are there other things that should go in here? I thought it would be easier to discuss this if we at least had someplace to start. I don't think we want to dwell too long on any one day, as we could get bogged down in talk instead of action....but there are things that need to be covered.

Elders' meeting (done)
Sorona shares her vision (save up)
Elders react (perhaps a save as stated above?)
Those outside the meeting react (perhaps a save?)
Individual evening posts of Day 1 -- One of the things I want to do is to hook Ráma up with Aiwendil
Rog leaves at the end of Day 1. Is that right???
Summary post for day 2 following the outline for the funeral (Hilde?)
Summary post for day three following the outline for the funeral (Child?)
Day four will be individual posts that tie up the funeral and set the scene for coming action and conflicts, e.g., Rama talking with her sister privately about what Ayar said, preparations for the wedding and the official naming of the new leaders....
Day 5 would be individual posts for the wedding and naming
Day 6 would be the BIG meeting of the Elders where everyone is screaming at each other, Rama is officially declared a lunatic when rumors of what her mother said slips out, and we finally decide what we are going to do for the rest of the game

We'd do our long range game planning at the same time as the Elders are screaming at each other. How does this sound? Suggestions, reactions?

If people want to revise or add to this, let me know and I'll stick other things in....

Help Wanted: please apply by pm :

I need someone to overhear part of the conversation between Rama and Narika where my character tells her reluctant sister their mother's requests regarding wyrm's and great Eagles. This conversation is supposed to be private, but I think it might be interesting if it were overheard and somebody spilled the beans in the Elders' Meeting on day 6. Any takers? This could presumably be someone who liked to stir the pot and cause trouble....

Ealasaide · 09-28-2004, 05:02 PM

Child - Sounds like a plan to me!

Also, I can have one of my Oldsters (not Fador) overhear the conversation between Rama and Narika, if that would work for everyone.

EDIT: Oh, oops. I didn't see that part about respond by PM. Sorry.

Please let me know by PM if you want me to do that.

Ealasaide

Oh, good. One of the oldsters would be fine! I'll send you a pm with a draft post when we get closer to that point....

I'll leave my plan up a bit, and see if anyone has anything to change or add.

Cami

Further response to Ealasaide's edit.... The note on the thread is fine. We'll exchange pms later.

Yes, Rôg is leaving at the end of day one - in fact, I'll put up the 2 saves mentioned for the "reaction" posts.

Then I'll have Rôg leave supper and a note for Aiwendil ( Where is the old fellow at present, btw?) Following that - the skinchanger will definitely beat feet . . .

Hilde Bracegirdle · 09-29-2004, 03:57 AM

Child, I am currently working on a post for Thorn that would take place around the same time as Sorona's revelation. I don't know when I will have it ready (my brother and his wife are arriving from overseas this weekend...house is a mess....), but would it be possible to tuck it in somewhere on the the thread, if it has already become night?

After that I will start on day 2.
