We might have here some co-operation! Sythric's only goal would be Calimehtar, and Brand - even making his resurrection in some miraculous way, could not be getting up at the same pace as Syrthric would - as he started up first... Protecting Vaenosa could have taken some time from Sythric, but still? Well Arry has written Brand to take on Calimehtar...

It might have some poetic justice, that Sythric would come after Brand's blow, and kind of finish off Calimehtar... - blowing him off the saddle - just after Brand's blow, just making it very bad from his (Calimehtar's) point of view? But as he should be be left alive - and get a way, we should leave him get a horse and beat it...

I guess we need to see Child's post to figure out this scene to the end...

Arry,

Feel free to connect and give him a real injury but one that he can eventually recover from......

It would be fine to have Osmod, Incana, and Leod work on the sick together. Feel free to use Leod sparingly in your posts to set this up. I won't be posting till late tomorrow.

I only resurrected poor Brand because no one else was going up the hill to help you. That, and the fact that at the end of your last post you said:

He approached the top of the hill, barely conscious . . .

I'll just write a little something where Brand deals him a blow that only infuriates him, not really harms him. Then why don't you you have Sythric deal him a harder blow as Child mentioned Arry could give him.

Sound OK?

I see your point, and it's a good one. Brand and Sythric seem to be the two fools going after all the remaining easterlings with just rage in mind...

Happily we have been so efficient earlier...

Let's see about the blows. I'll try to take time to write something later today (it's noon here now, and I'm hurrying to choir-trainings), but I guess, Sythric will end up lying on the ground somewhere...

Nogrod · 04-23-2006, 09:25 AM

Just to inform everyone. My possibilities to contribute text in the following two days seem thin (I'll try, but can't promise). So don't wait for Sythric to deal any hits that would be important, looking at the plot.

If the story goes forwads in two days, I'm happy just to let Sythric drop from his horse or something...

But it would be nice to have some company helping Dorran and Meghan (so now: Sythric, Brand and Vaenosa?).

Ok.

I'm writing a short post (I've made a save already). Sythric comes to the top of the hill and has to pause. He sees Brand rush in and only then notices the situation... tries to do, what he can (I was first thinking, that he should be so weak that he would drop off from his horse, but now as Brand has fallen too, I think it would be somewhat funny, if we all drop off our mounts, one by one - on the hilltop, where there should be a couple of easterlings still alive). I'll come up with something, but don't hesitate to put things forwards - I can adjust my post to yours.
