Legate, I think it's pretty funny that you have Aflorgad (or however you spell his name) smitten with the healer. Very good way to slip Matrim in there. That was great.

Hey, while falling asleep last night, it occurred to me that what might potentially happen in this issue with Thornden is that Hilderinc could mention to Coenred that he saw a scout being sent out that morning. Coenred would of course say that there was no scout and Hilderinc would possibly tell him that Thornden knew about the man's departure, and this would probably awaken more misgivings in Coenred, who had some sneaking suspicion earlier that Thornden knew something he wasn't saying (you remember when Thornden and Coenred were talking to Athanar about where to send the search parties? I remembered it last night while trying to think of who all knows a little about Thornden's cover-up and it came back to me that he let something slip and Coenred suspects him of knowing something). It wouldn't take much for Coen to put two and two together, and then he could either confront Thornden on it, or go straight to Athanar. I personally hope he comes to Thornden first, but that would be Dury's call.

Does anyone know where Durelin might be, by the way? I don't think she's been on here for quite some time.

I have to go finish getting ready for work. See ya'll later.

P.S. Oh! And it just came to me - Mnemosyne, what Saeryn wanted to tell Athanar was that Lithor left with Erbrand, too, so they no longer have to wonder if he went somewhere else or what. She didn't know Thornden saw them go.

Foley, thanks

The ideas sort of came to me randomly and during the course of writing the post, but it was sort of natural... it all originally came simply from that I wanted Áforglaed visit Scyrr, which seemed to imply that he would likely encounter the healer there, then it occured to me that Matrim could be near her... and only then I have realised that it was actually him who was in the original fight with Áforgaled the day before. The course of things which comes unplanned is sometimes even better than if it was planned

As for your idea about Hilderinc telling Coen, I think it's good. You just seem to come up with possibly more and more ways to put Thornden into more and more unpleasant position

I can make Hilderinc mention it during the dinner, for example, or after it; I think it would be fitting, since the topic of the unsuccessful hunt for the fugitives will be sort of "on the table".

I am wondering about Dury too. Does anybody know about a way to contact her otherwise? I can, of course, just write a bit about Hilderinc without her and then we could wrap the matter up in some way by Coen addressing Thornden, but it would be probably far better if she can be here to actually decide for Coen herself.

Yeah, I'm good at getting myself and my characters into scrapes.

I enjoy immense amount of conflict in my stories.

I sent her a message on facebook, hopefully she'll get that.

Foley: I'm in the middle of some chaos right now, but made a short post to get things moving. If you can make a reply to my last, then great. I'll post for lord Athanar speaking to the Mead Hall about the day and tomorrow (in game), hopefully tomorrow (RL).

Let's hope Dury is found as well...

Durelin · 10-20-2010, 01:58 PM

Hey all. I'm in the midst of a busy semester, and haven't had the energy or interest to really try to stay active or involved in this...I apologize. It always seems to work out that when I do have the time and interest, everyone else (except Foley, who is always around!) is busy. Not that I am ever consistent.....ever....

I've been lurking off-and-on but...it's hard to come back right now... I'm not sure what time I can dedicate until the end of this semester, but I'll see what I can do.

Dury, if you can't come back right now and don't think you'll be able to participate for a couple months yet (that is, till the end of hte semester), could you possibly tell us how you think your character would act in the ideas and situation that Legate and I talk about in the above posts?

I know what it's like being in the midst of a crazy semester! And don't think I'm always around...heh...a couple weeks ago, I was skipping a week at time. I felt pretty bad about it, but as no one else was posting, I just let it slide.

Nogrod · 10-20-2010, 05:08 PM

Give us some thoughts about Coen, if you have time Dury. And all the best for the semester!

Foley: I just threw you one back as I haphazardly ran into your post at the right time. If you have time, make a line or two (or more of course). I need to get to sleep now and will try to make something more tomorrow in the form of lord Athanar addressing all the people.

Meanwhile, keep up posting anyone who have anything in mind...
