I've been meaning to ask if any of the writers for other women who would be in the kitchen are around and feel like writing. I thought it would be nice if someone actually pressed Ledwyn into telling her story.

And since the last post was about Harreld, I had a random idea that Theolain could follow Harreld around - without the need for his knowledge or consent, at least at first. I don't know what exactly happens next, but I have all the worst intentions for him. Are you ok with that, Elempi? If you have other plans for Harreld, I could stalk another character, or just "go exploring".

Stalk as it please you, G55.

I was wondering if there might be anyone who takes exception to my license with a Human being able to do a limited form of osanwe, but nobody has said anything yet.

At any rate, my thought is that Harreld being especially introspective, is able to communicate inside his own mind if an Elf shows up there, but that's his limit. Sound okay?

Actually, I'm really excited to hear more of this osanwe. When I read your post I thought that it would be a totally awesome loop to add to the story - which it already is. I was coming up with possible reasons for why it is there - ranging from "Harreld is just an introspective person" (which is what lmp says) to "he is an indirect (and unknowing) descendant of an Elf, probably Mithrellas, but perhaps of Luthien-through Numenor, so he has more potential than other Humans"... And all kind of crazy combinations in between...

So, in other words, I really like the osanwe discovery. And your post, btw.

I'll write up a post for Theolain today.

There has already been an RPG that Mithadan and I and Child of the 7th Age wrote in where a Human was able to do some osanwe. I have no doubt you'll handle your osanwe venture well.

Well, good! And thanks! Nice to know it's not an original notion with me.

Yes, "head over heels" in all of its meanings. (I didn't really mention it specifically, but I think he would fall more than once in his haste)

Heh, the truth to that is that I forgot that there is a "Middle Emnet" when I was writing the bio, since I used a Third Age map for reference... Gonna drum something up.

Would Saeryn be curious enough to ask what happened to Theolain?

LMP, I'll post for Theolain too soon. I think it won't be today, but hopefully tomorrow.

Yes, she will, once she notices he is missing. I wanted to give us a chance to chat before the mother was off worrying about her son.

I edited my post, because Elempi kindly pointed out that my character was sitting at the table with Athanar and Eodwine. The end is in essence the same, so you can carry on as before.

Well, couldn't refuse an excuse to stay up later, so I wrote and posted for both my characters.
