So any ideas?
Just to let you know -- when a post is "deleted", it's 'soft' deleted; that is, I can always retrieve it.

Good to hear that.

We have still a lot to write before what Groin's post had in it needs to come to the light - so we have time for Groin to reconsider, which I think should be the solution number one.

So let's wait for a few days, a week perhaps, and come back to this then if we hear nothing from Groin before that? And really I'd hate to "delete" a post as laboured as his was... so I'm still willing to hear it from you others; could we live with that scenario if we consider we'd need to strive for somekind of peace between the older and newer "Scarburgers" in the end?

Nerindel, I just read your post, and it was really, really good.

I will take note of what you say here on the discussion thread and have Thornden note Matrim's absence. I don't know when I'll get a chance to post, but I will eventually.

Drat.

I had thought I'd write a short meeting with the craftsmen and lord Athanar just to give you more perspective into his character. But then I realised that Erbrand is a craftsman and might have been called for the meeting as well...

Well, he was a tanner so maybe he wasn't called for it? Garstan, Stigend and Harreld would be called in anyway as they are in charge of the building-works... probably Náin as well as he is around now.

I'm probably not having time to write it today but I'll try to do it tomorrow. Any ideas if it would sound natural Erbrand was not called for?

I think it would be reasonable if he wasn't called for, since he wouldn't actually be working on the building. So, what you said.

Just to report that I am alive... I can see, oh my, you have been incredibly productive over the holidays... I did not and do not have time to read anything anywhere since my last post, but you can expect me to be back in about a week... so let's see after that... let's see where we actually are

1420!

Ok Matrim has broke the bad news to Æðel and they are ready to introduce themselves to Lord Athanar, as I have stated that it took Æðel a while to get ready they could wait till after he has spoken to the craftsmen.
