The wolves are on their way to spying out their next meal.

On their way, they've decided to pass on the bedraggled figure of Mitharan lying in the snow.

Nuranar: Check your PM's

Saurreg: I figured, with Belegorn looking for Carthor anyways and only being interrupted by his summons to the King's tent, upon hearing of Carthor's appointment as the new leader of the King's Guard, he'd rush off and try to disuade him from leaving... sorry but I sort of used Belegorn a lot in my post, I could change it to another non PC soldier or someone, but I don't think it would have the effect...

What would you like me to do, if you want i can just change the whole thing.

No-no-no-no...by all means take Alak's character, she isn't coming back for RL reasons, but just hold back on devouring Lal's character yet - she was one of the three who I PM'd, and said she would consider coming back. Admittedly, that was about ten days ago, but there is hope from that front. So just...hang on!

I shall send a quick prompt...

Nuranar! Glad to see you back - thank you

Thanks, Osse - I'll reply shortly.

I thought that would get a rise from you.

I'm refering to the (often untimely) death of the protagonist's mother prior to many stories. For example, Frodo and Harry Potter. There was a very interesting discussion about it a couple years ago.

At this point I have only vague ideas about a post. Should I try to provide a hook-up for Lal? Please let me know if you get a response from her, Aman. Thank you!

Amanaduial the archer · 07-20-2005, 08:50 AM

An interesting idea indeed, dearest mother-mine, an interesting idea indeed...*evil* Lal said that she wasn't sure how to get back into the game, hence her uncertainty of how to return, so if you could provide a 'hook-up' Nuranar, that would be great

- and if you wanted to PM her and just make her aware of what you had done if you decide to do so... And even if Lal chooses not to return, the entrance can just be altered and her absence can be made more permanent.

Good lord, sorry, didn't mean to sound quite so threatening there...

Nuranar · 07-20-2005, 09:47 AM

I think you're better with the idea-hatching, m'dear, so if you have some evil ideas for my poor character, PM me. *sigh* It's a shame, I'm really rather fond of her now...

I'll plan on incorporating Renedwen somehow, then. What about the little people - her son and Gilly? I hate to kill people off, and it certainly wouldn't do Renedwen's mental state any good. But realistically, babies and small children in battle are an insurer's nightmare! If Brander went west, why not one (or both!) of them?

And yes, whatever she chooses - and delaying to choose = no return - we can work her character in or out. I've carried her a little bit, and thought about her a lot, so I think I could manage that best of anyone.

. . . sigh . . . no one wants to die . . .

Well, then, the poor wolfies will simply drag down and haul off some anonymous two leggeds and you can name them or not.
