Raefindan has asked a question of those gathered around the table at the Seven Stars Inn. I think those that are with Raefindan and Ædegard are Bellyn, Leafa, Liornung, Ravion, and Aeron. Would some one of your characters please deign to answer Raefindan?

Helen, that was intense. I would love to rep you for that, but alas, I had to spread it around. Well done!

Some not-so-random thoughts on Elessar, Arwen, Mandos, and Mellondu. I shall spew my thoughts in case the team feels they are adoptable/ adaptable. Please do not feel constrained thereby.

Were I Aragorn, once I had interviewed Erebemlin, Taitheneb, and maybe Tharonwe (or maybe not, as he has a cagey air) I would be more than a little desirous to speak with Amroth-- if indeed it be he. Imagine my delight in learning that Amroth (if indeed it be he) is dwelling in one of my subjects. Heh. I summon the lad to my Impressive Court.
What follows is not quite proper Sindarin-- I leave that up to the team. (And I wanted to watch lmp squirm.)

Strider: Mellondu, my lad, I'd really like to talk to Amroth, you know.

Mellondu: I'm not exactly comfortable with that.

Strider: I am your king, after all. And-- Arwen would like to meet him too.

Mellondu: Well, if you put it like that. Do I really have to?

Strider: Come on. For your country, and such. Please?

Mellondu: Okay. Even though I think he's a cad because of the way he treated my sister.

Strider: Yes, yes. Ready?

Mellondu: I suppose.

Mandos: Slap.

Arwen:

Strider: Eh?

Arwen: Maybe this isn't our best idea.

Strider: Why...?

Arwen: Lo, I fear we do trespass upon doomed ground, and stuff like that.

Strider: Try again.

Mandos: Slap.

Arwen:

I'm out of here. Seriously, honey, this is a bad plan.

Strider: (in Sindarin of course) Well, rats darn, phooey and drat.

Mellondu:

Another headache. Ouch.

Strider: So do we believe him or not?

Arwen: I'd really rather not go there.

Strider: And I thought this was going to be good stuff.

Arwen: I think we should leave well enough alone.

Strider: Doggone it! No quests, no armies pouring forth from the gates? Back to the administrative grind?

Arwen: Mmm-hmm.

Strider: Feh.

I love it as is. Copy and paste, shall we?

mark12_30 · 07-25-2006, 08:39 AM

Why thankee.

But I fear lmp would flmp.

Formendacil · 07-25-2006, 01:24 PM

Well, I've posted into my Save...

I'm not altogether sure I like what I've written, but I'm still foggy with too much sleep, and I'm rather afraid that I can write no better at the moment. A large part of the delay was a complete lack of ideas on HOW to execute this.

Anyway, I'm sure you good people will direct me on ways to improve it, should the improvement be needed.

mark12_30 · 07-25-2006, 02:00 PM

I like it. And when at a loss, brief is better. I think you did well.

Er, does that mean I'm next?

littlemanpoet · 07-25-2006, 02:03 PM

What a hoot, Helen!

..... so long as it's only on the discussion thread that way. Copy and paste, indeed, Fea!

Bad girl. I think the gist of what would happen is just right.
