Coromswyth and Ambarturion have just figured out what the Enemy's plan is -- which might be too soon for the plot, Durelin, so if it is, let me know and I will edit and send apologies.

On the other hand, all they have is a theory -- the Mirkwood Elves have no reason to believe this theory if (and when) they hear it. . .

Great game so far, everyone!

Fordim - That is exactly what I thought should happen, and when it did was not at all a big concern.

Yes, a theory, for some to believe and some not to.

Fordim and Amanaduial

Would you like to throw the Elves in the wagon yourselves

. . . or leave that to a post from Grom and company?

Fordim Hedgethistle · 07-13-2004, 03:23 PM

Well, I just posted and wouldn't have much to add to what's there other than "The foul orcs threw them unceremoniously into a wagon and began the journey to Dol Guldur."

Perhaps Aman would like to get us on our way?

Durelin · 07-13-2004, 09:22 PM

Well, I basically got you lot on your way, I hope no one minds... And I threw in a little encouragement for you prisoners...hope no one minds that little addition, either. Any of the Lorien elves can be the one who sees.

Okay, here's a run down...

The scouts are planning to head off the orcs escorting the prisoners back to Dol Guldur.

Meanwhile...the army moves slowly toward Lorien.

More meanwhile...the prisoners are treated poorly, but find hope...

As the orc escort is moving slowly, I expect that the rescue will occur shortly. But I don't think we're ready for it quite yet...

Is everything actually going alright?

One question, Durelin: Is the prisoner wagon still in close proximity to the army's camp? If so, Thrakmazh still has some parting words for the prisoners, and might try to wave down the wagon before they depart in earnest. If it is already too far, I might try to conspire a post below yours, so that it might not seem out of place. Suggestions? Opinions?

Kransha -- I have a save up in which Ambarturion will reply to Grom's proposal. If you would like, it could include a 'flashback' to Thrak's parting words(?).

If you want to do this, just PM your post to me and I will insert it into my post.

(BTW -- I still think it should be "Crapulent Corpse"

)
