Dalin got a little carried away in the forge and has missed (at the very least) the first portion of the celebration. He'll head there next, perhaps arriving during the imminent horror/confusion/pandamonium caused by the news of Balin's death... or before it, makes no difference to me. But do feel free to cart our lord on in!

I will be ready to enter with Gror whenever I'm needed.

If you would like I could do a post about leaving the Lonely Mountain and setting out for Moria. But I didn't think for this "tale" that would be necessary...?

Legate, check your PM.

Thinlómien · 12-02-2008, 06:01 AM

Ok, now we only need Kath and Ilya to post. It's going fine!

Himaran (do you have a nickname btw?

) - wasn't your character's name Dalin, not Dwalin?

Well, it wouldn't fit there as such... but you could write Gror's musings and memories about it in some (not necessarily the first) post of yours.

Just see and do what seems fit.

Himaran · 12-02-2008, 09:05 AM

Thinlómien: Yes, yes it is indeed... hmm thanks for pointing that out - post has been edited.

As for a nickname, you can just call me Him, which is amusing but honestly it's what people usually resort to. Or you can make something up.

All right, I have posted for Óin now and it is up to Boro to continue on with this part of the plot. I see it the way that eventually, news will be brought into Moria about the new threat: but for now, I think there is time to go on with the celebration, resp. with Balin's body being carried in, and with the reaction of everybody on that.

I may post for Onli in concern with the celebration now yet, but that's not the most important thing. We'll see.

Boromir88 · 12-03-2008, 11:33 AM

Posted. Our meeting is finished Legate, if I need to change anything, let me know.

I didn't know when you wanted the Orcs to get to the East Gate, I just had Gror say he suspects they would be on top of the dwarves by nightfall. Next, I can have Gror see that a skirmish had just taken place near the Mirrormere, and learn about Balin's death. But anyway, Groin, whenever you're ready to have Gror give Tror the dire news, he's ready.

Groin Redbeard · 12-03-2008, 11:41 AM

Great posts everyone, glad to see that Him, Ilya and Boro haven't left us. Excellent posts, and well worth the wait.

Boro, whenever you want to talk to Tror that would be alright. I'm getting a post up for him. If it's alright I'm going to have the group of nobles stand for a moment outside the Eastern-Gate, it will not be a pleasant task anouncing the death of Balin.

Looks great, Boro!

Only one thing, maybe, since you asked about it - if you could change the mark after "That is a threat indeed." into an exclamation mark. Just to give Óin's reaction a bit of a less "casual" tone.

Folwren · 12-07-2008, 05:47 PM

Arry, I went ahead and had Kenan ask him something.

Kitanna, I don't know what you were planning on putting into your save. Very hopefully, I have not ruined anything for you. I haven't done anything drastic.

No, I checked out your post and it in no way ruins what I was going to put in.

Thinlómien · 12-08-2008, 06:00 AM

Great job, people.

I'll try to post for Vigdis soon, but I'm afraid "soon" means Wednesday...

Boromir88 · 12-08-2008, 09:01 AM

Groin, I will be pretty busy the rest of the week, so if you'd like to keep things moving along, you can write in Gror informing Tror. If it wouldn't be a bother to you.

Groin Redbeard · 12-08-2008, 05:35 PM

All done Boro, although I think I rushed it and made things move along faster than needed. What do you think? Also, how is your character? Let me know if I wrote something wrong, or if you want to write for him instead.

Ilya, Nisa has approached Adela. She thinks Adela looks sick, but this could also be from what Nisa is feeling, you decide.
