Due to a computer problem, and the fact that his password is stored on the site and not in his head, LMP has been unable to get on the Downs for a few days. He's hoping to clear it up by the end of next week, but until then he'll be in touch by YIM.

I put up the post he wrote for Raefindan on the game thread.

Sorry to jump in.

Also, once morning comes, and everybody's whereabouts gets cleared up (since surely, on this open plain - with a few trees I suppose - everybody will be somewhat embarrassed to see that they're all within shouting distance of each other), Ædegard will start packing, ready to start off toward Rohan, allowing Mellondu to continue the loan of his mount (whose name I forget). Should try to have a bit of a caustic and.....

Wow, so the news is out about Roy.

I've tried to stay away from this with my Elves, but now they will have to deal with it. How much exactly should they see of the future through Roy, if any at all? Will Maegeleb cover his mind so Erebemlin and Taitheneb cannot see it? Any help at all on how to handle this? Or do you have something planned?

Thanks.

From LMP:

Tharonwe has made a tactical blunder by revealing Roy's secret, too gleeful with Roy's discomfiture. Now he faces the dilemma of having to either hide Roy's mind from the Elves, or hide what he's been doing while leaving Roy open to the Elves; he chooses the latter - it gives him greater flexibility to use hypnotism elsewhere..... I wonder if Tolkien is rolling over in his grave at my use of the time travel idea?

The messenger, Sophia

All, I tagged a Mellonin post on the end of lmp's post (that he had me put up.)

Hey, lmp, get a password, willya? PM Mithadan, or something!

alak,

I had no clear plans for nethwador's racing off-- just that he would never sit still if Bella was in danger. (However did she run off without him noticiing?? I'll have to backfit that, or it's just not plausible...)

anyway, I guess we can use Nethwador's near-panic and his relief at finding Bella again for a foil to Leafa's and Ædegard's chilly un-relationship...

Orual, Mellonin would like nothing better than for Ravion to invite himself into the threesome-- only he's out in the snow isn't he? Dratted nuisance. Maybe when he gets back with Bella and Leafa, she'll try to get him together with Mellondu.

Southward, march!

Thank the gods for good friends who know computers well!

I still have to read the latest on the Tapestry thread, but it's verrrrry good to be back!

I'll take a peek, and thanks to Sophia for helping out so much! Did you know that she's been reading our little rp? Says it's one of the best written!

Glad to see you. lmp. How did the last ad-aware scan go?

Orual, if you'd like your rangers to find the girls, that would be good. Taitheneb wound have found them by now if they were nearby, so it makes more sense for him to have gone the wrong way to begin with.

It's night-time? Ædegard and Aeron, and Liornung are asleep but Mellonin, Mellondu, and Raefindan are awake? Hmmm, doesn't make sense; the elf would order the mortals to sleep. Guess I'll put my little circle to sleep, then. **off to edit**
