Folwren,

That's alright. Mistakes happen. And thanks to everyone who helped clear this up.

My post is filled.

I've put in a hook for Azhar at the end of it. Let me know, Tevildo, if any edit is needed.

I will hopefully fill my save this morning or early this afternoon.

Tevildo, I wanted to know, is Dorran going to be arriving just after the three who just arrived? In what sort of condition is he? That is, is he on the verge of fainting, or is he pretty steady? Mostly, what should be Athwen's first idea when she sees Dorran? Also, where is the cut and how deep is it?

Azhar still has a fever, doesn't she?

Pio, Rog's wound has quit bleeding and he's still walking and has ability to speed up and catch up the others. He doesn't seem to be about to topple over. How long and deep is it? Is it just a painful flesh wound that will heal with little mending? The arrow just skimmed his ribs, right?

The arrow sliced a long, shallow, ragged gash along his right flank. Rôg's tunic is all stuck into it by the dried blood. His left shoulder is just massively bruised and painful from the whack on it by the flat of one of the slavers' swords.

Hm. I know where a horse's flank is, and I would assume a man's would be between the rib cage and hip bone, correct? That would hurt. I'll fix you up (that is, Athwen will fix Rog up. . .).

I have to chuckle. That's just like a man.

Folwern -

Dorran will be meeting everyone at the knoll as soon as I manage to fill my save, probably tonight. His main problem is that cracked rib, which is hurting. The gash on his head is not large, and he has an assortment of bumps and bruises. He's likely to grit his teeth and tell his wife that he is just fine! He's not badly hurt but needs to be reminded to slow down and take a breather.

Azhar is another matter. She is worse than she looks--burning up with fever. The origin of this fever should not be known to Athwen, please.

You're welcome to use my characters to get things started. If you fill your save before mine, I'll merely respond to what Athwen said or did.

EDIT: P.S. We crossposted, and, yes, Dorran has a bit of male pride as well as not wanting his wife to worry.

***************

Pio -

I'd very much like to have Azhar briefly say something to Rôg. Could I post it on the discussion thread and you could slot it into your box?

Don't fear about that.

She'll probably think Azhar's been pushed to the point of physical break down and exhaustion. Besides, I hardly know the origin of the fever myself. I know nothing about tending fevers. . .I need to start looking stuff up in Mom's natural healing book.

Ah, apologies to everyone. I had an important college visit on Saturday, and then yesterday the cable was out...was out for most of today, as well. Right now I'm at home only because of a severe sinus infection (I'm one of those chronic people, but every so often it flares up really bad...).

At any rate, I apologize that I did not follow through on getting Vror in on the action. I will as soon as all those saves are filled in and I figure out how everything's playing out.
