I've just sent a brilliant post back to TB12 (being his semi official proofreader is fun), which should go up in the morning. However the events of the post will make it clear that Regin, Fea, Himaran (and Meneltarmacil if he's still around?) should make all haste to Armenelos.

Just a very few notes. "Rómenna" should be spelled the way I have just done. Not "Romenna" with no accent or "Rommena." "Abârzadan" has also lost his accent in the last several posts.

Also I would like to see us throw in a few varied names. We're a group of people that loves our homeland dearly, impassioned patriots if you will, and we speak several languages which include many names for Numenor, including:

Númenor, Númenórë, Elenna, Andor, The Land of Gift, Starwards, Westernesse, Anadûnê, Yôzâyan.

The latter two are Adunaic, and therefore probably used by the King's Men and ourselves equally. The former are probably terms of the Faithful only. Armenelos would also likely be called Arminalêth by the King's Men, as it is the Adunaic form of the word and the elven tongues were *cough* out of favor.

Despite my many and lengthy absences this has been hands-down the best written game I have ever been part of.

Thank you everyone.

And in other news I start my new job tomorrow! So I will soon be providing my own internet with my own paycheck! And paying for it in a timely fashion. Hooray.
