Okay, guys... now I DO have to post with Naiore. That's altogether too much activity outdoors for her to just sit there in her tree and do nothing.

The second I say that she has a clear view of the rear gardens and the stable, you immediately put all of your characters out there in the gardens and the stable.

I can't let it slide.

I had also thought that it might prove useful to have Avanill and Rauthain spot Menecin, (or rather the other way round), so if needed, Vanwe might find out (via Amandur maybe after 'watching' Avanill) that he is on his own and in the vicinity.

Ah so that is what Juta was listening to!

Yeah, well, even so... I have to say it's a little annoying that you guys put SO MANY characters out there and vulnerable (Vanwe, Lespheria, Rauthain, Menecin, Avanill) when you know I can't kill any of you because of the constraints of the storyline. It makes a very dangerous character look rather helpless and oafish if she does nothing.

I was willing to let Menecin slide. Then it was Vanwe and Lespheria. Now with the last bunch, it's entirely too much. Naiore is going to have to take some action. I will try to have my save filled in by Friday, but if I miss, it will probably be Monday before I will have a chance to write again.

I would think Naiore would deem it too risky to go near Lespheria and Vanwe.
So sorry, I did not mean to bait her so with Rauthain and his whims, but the stream I thought was in front of the building. Ah well!

But Naiore isn't helpless, she's rather wise to pick the best moment to act.

Okay, maybe "helpless" wasn't the the best word for it. Ineffectual is more what I meant. At any rate, I just want to mention that I have decided to change direction somewhat. Instead of seeing nothing of anything that is going on, Naiore has seen something and will move on someone. Stay tuned!

look! im putting up a save! (Finally) and mid-terms are over.

Ealasaide · 06-18-2004, 10:50 AM

I've had a change of heart and deleted my save. For the moment Naiore will remain where she is. Time frame may advance at any time.

Everdawn - good to have you back!
