Nogrod, if we can finish this thing soon, we can move on to another day...

Please don't keep up waiting too long.

What the - - - ? Noggie! What is Athanar thinking?

This - er - will be very interesting. Duel to the death, or injury?

As I said, 'what the - -- ?'

Duel to death with bare hands...

Heh, it might not be what it looks like being, though. Let's see about it.

Thornden won't fight him. Good gracious. You DO know that right? I'm sitting in a hot camper and your post still made me go cold in at least one point. Nice post. I'm on free time, now, and am feeling quite energetic. I think I'll reply.

Hah! Thornden never was all that great at subtlety. Looks like Athanar is going to have to spell out what he hoped to convey indirectly. Or was Athanar posing the question to test Thornden in a new way? Eeeeeenteresting!

And I for one hope that Eodwine returns on said day. Wishful thinking?

Off to read the game thread. Sounds exciting.


Edit: After reading the posts, I've come to these realisations:

1. Athanar, like Eodwine, is a tad crazy, albeit a different brand of crazy.
2. I'm glad Ginna would never even think of marrying Thornden, because then I would totally try to steal him from her.

Fun.

Foley, I made the few changes to my previous post you asked me.

Lhuna: aren't all "rulers" a tad crazy as they have to be to gain that position to begin with?

Nogrod, I am so sorry to make an issue about this last thing, but it seemed SO awkward for me to have them walk in together like that. I don't know why...just me...I'm guessing it's because I come from a very non-touchy sort of family...? I dunno. But the two men just left looking like they were about to kill each other, and, well, to come back in clasping each other's shoulders seemed like overkill.

I obviously way over-think these things. I hope neither you nor Athanar are insulted. Though, it'd kinda be funny if Athanar misunderstood and was. Except for the fact that this day should really wind down soon.

Lhuna, that is one of the two best compliments ever paid to my character. Actually...I'd probably say it is the best...

Heh, you (and Thornden) seem to have misunderstood lord Athanar totally... I did actually think of making him clarify it in my last post but then thought it would be just surplus length to the post...

No, he is not requiring Thornden to go in shoulder to shoulder physically like sportsmen after a goal but to either go with him in good terms together or to go differently and thus send a message things are wrong.

Now it looks like Thornden insists in entering the hall separately... just opposite of what Athanar suggested and thought important. Actually, looking at lord Athanar's character profile it would be quite natural he got mad again...

Long live misunderstandings.

I need to go to sleep now (1AM already), but I'll try to continue tomorrow earlyish. Hopefully I come up with a way that makes it possible to overcome this little problem we have here so that we can get forwards...

Okay. We (Foley & myself) have posted now and you can infer the two have entered back into the Hall, together and in decent terms. So if anyone wants still to make something out of this evening, you should do it in a day or two.

Then we could change the day as I have gotten the feeling there are some wishes for that to happen.
