SWEET! I'm going to go read what sort of fix you've gotten him into. Mwahahaha!

Okay, I've filled in my save and the Raca and the Fame and Fortune are now alongside each other. Sailors and soldiers should be leaping from one ship to the other. Let the chaotic battle posts ensue! As Folwren put it:

I would like to post, but I hesitate a bit because I'm not sure what to write. Just to write soldiers trying to kill each other...hmm... I can do that or make Lingwë nearly get himself killed or drowned or something... But if anyone has any tactic idea please tell me because I don't want to post nonsense...

Well, I would look at it first in the sense that the F&F has to escape, so the attack on the ship can't be extremely successful. I can't really help you with tactics - I really don't have much idea at all of how sea battles work - but I would start there.

Lommy - You could try posting a death scene for Sergeant Nillendion. I've had an idea in my head for a couple of days about killing off one of the NPC characters (if none of you mind), just to give a bit of drama to the story. It's up to you, though.

Sounds interesting... I could do that. You said you've thought about that, do you have in particular ideas or do I just make up something? I could do it on Thursday or Saturday, I hope we're not moving on that fast that I couldn't do it then. I'll think about this.

A heads-up for you all - I'm going to be going away from Friday to next Wednesday. I'm going to have a post up either tonight or tomorrow sometime before I leave.

You could have Nillendion killed while fighting one of those big, black-armored guards, or maybe while trying to get belowdecks to the slaves. Just a couple of ideas; you can let him die anyway you want.

Well, you know the sluggish pace this RPG moves at.
