I don't think I will be able to write any sort of post until after Sunday. I have a rather large test (ACT) comming up on Saturday, and so am very busy. Forest Elf hasn't been around for about a month, but it would be nice, should she come round, if she could write a short post.

Okay, you guys are absolutely amazing for keeping this going...and I am absolutely terrible for abandoning it.

I hope I can start to be a part of this game again, if you'll still have me.

Oh no! Our game moderator is trying to join us! Block her, block her!

Really my dear, what did you think we would say?

Yay, Durelin's here!

What do you Dury think of us abandoning the town storyline and moving the active characters to the forest? Will you write alone something about the village doings or have Parkun following the rest? I think the latter scenario might be hilarious, the "defenders" disappearing to the forest one by one...

Hehe, perhaps I was trying to buy myself a bit of time? Or just was trying to be dramatic?

Yes, post, what a novel idea. * at self*

That sounds like a great idea, Lommy, and I agree - the latter would be quite amusing... Everything already seems to be wonderfully disorganized. It's awesome!

If no one minds, I think I'll kinda pick up Toby a bit. I think I will have Parkun fully separated from the group for the time being...

So, Erling, Kuric, Sam, and Grorin are all right outside town/at the gate. Ash and Lea are within earshot of them, taking Orin home...so that leaves everyone who's been MIA at the inn: Toby, Parkun, Madoc, Grimbeorn, and Robby.

I think Madoc and Robby should be written out somehow. I agree we we can perhaps carry along Grimbeorn for now.

So I'll get Toby, Grimbeorn, Parkun moving at least, if not all in the same direction...

Edit: Nevermind, sorry, just realized Grimbeorn has been carried along with Ash and Lea!

Edit #2:

I posted! That felt good... I thought it best to start toward the direction of perhaps having everyone meet up again, but not best to have two more people randomly show up at the Bree gate and add to the confusion. Parkun is taking Toby on an odd "shortcut"...whether or not they end up where Parkun intends is left up to whether or not the others run into the pair.

I decided that Madoc left for want of food and a nap. Robby I think snuck off by himself because he wanted to accomplish some adventuring on his own and come back a sort of hero (or perhaps he thought he should follow Madoc to make sure he wasn't up to something, hehe?). Is that good enough for everyone? They can easily come back/be brought back from that, but can also just as easily be left out of the picture...even if it is all vague and...random...

Dunwen has just left Hobbiton.
I've added a post where Sam introduces himself by name to Groin. Additionally, I've used hobbits' acute sense of hearing to identify the other half of our band.

Hopefully, I've left leeway at the end for Ash or anyone in his group to react how he/she wishes.

I added something I thought would be fun. I'm willing to delete it if you think it better to not have it.

Yes, anything to get another active character back into the game!
