Sorry if I have stepped on your toes here .
Not the least! Don't worry. I was smiling quite widely, as I wrote my post. I assure you, it was positive anyhow...

I figured since we are going to be as one group soon, I would offer some assistance to Farael's question. It was meant to be a suggestion not a "This is what we are going to be doing and this is how we are going to be doing it." Like you have been doing so far and yes your idea of a deserted town is a good one. I realize that your character was sent out to guide the young ones, but I think it was intended to be just your character not you as a person in this thread. Other people will have their opinions and will want to help and offer suggestions at some point in this game and I think that we would all look at what that person has said and take it into consideration, even if we had a concrete 'map'. You surely don't have to use my suggestion regarding the ferry, that is of course your prerogative. Like I said it was just a suggestion.
Well, this I guess, is a special case, as we have made a deal - with Arry's consent - that I could prepare a little surprise for our party. In that situation, I would have to be the one to give the overall scheme for the others to play. I have left the basic map very open indeed for anyone to react to it on their own will & imagination (well I admit suggesting some posts while riding through the empty town: it sounded so nice and fruitful, that it would have been a pity, if someone would have rushed us straight to the ferry-place without coming to think about that possibility).

And I really don't mind others helping, not at all. I would be very happy to have myself given suggestions and ideas too. All I'm thinking, is being in a good story, where we players might have fun.

If you refer to the earlier "rush-night" post, where I tried to give my suggestion for how to continue from now on, you may be more right. For a while I really thought, whether I should write that post or not, but as everything seemed to go so fast, and one could never know, what other people were writing - just at the same minute you were writing yours, I kind of tried to offer one view of things we would need. It really was feverish: as you had written five sentences, and took a look at the thread, things had changed already: so it was crying for some plan or another. And after that we discussed it together, whether we should have some overall strategies to let others know (we: not me alone!). And anyhow, my suggestion surely would be open to other suggestions! It was just one way to see it... I think everyone has the right to suggest. You seem to concur with it too in your post.

Waiting for our teams to meet up...

Can you go ahead and put up a SAVE for yourself

I have an encounter I'm working on for our group and will be moving the Wulfhamers ahead a day or so late tonight my time (Pacific U.S.)

Thanks!

I'll also leave a general SAVE up for any one who needs a last post or so, before we move on.

Yes, Eostre has been over the river before...

I appologize for my posts seeming defensive. That is not how I intended them to be; if they were interpeted that way, I'm sorry. Nowhere did I intend to imply that I didn't think anyone here was a good RPer or whatnot. It's simply my time doesn't permit me to post much more than a couple times a week and I didn't like the idea of holding the rest of the RP up when everyone wants to move it forwards quite fast.

Heehehee. I just realized that over the course of five pages, Fionn has somehow acquired a second "N" in his name. Originally I created him as Fion, but now I somehow cannot write it without adding the extra letter!

You could say that his character has already grown since the beginning of the game. By one whole letter.
