I like this idea very much!

Let me see...Sorn will actually make it to the cellar, as his intention all along was to kil lin before he threw the knife. He makes it there, sees she is gone, and decides to chase her down to make sure he saves his skin.

He bumps into Gurth, asks him to find the girl, and Gurth refuses? They fight, they monologue, and Sorn gets his just desserts.

This would require Anguirel to delete the save post and put it up later on where it fits. But that wouldn't be so hard.

Does that seem like a good plan? Or too simplistic? I'm open for suggestions.

I'll be honest; I'm still not completely for Sorn dying already and I think it could be interesting if Sorn himself were to chase after Linduial - is this a logical decision? or a mad-Sorn-on-the-loose decision?

And Haleth needs to die (this has been written in on the Mead Hall thread by now); if Sorn is gone, I don't think Osfrid is going to kill anyone, not surrounded by Rohirrim. Would Gurth?

Very good point, Fire.

So, we hold off the altercation with Gurth even longer, and have Haleth bump into Sorn? Maybe not so bluntly...perhaps Haleth is near the study and Sorn sneaks up on him? Sorn would be rather miffed to see people wandering about HIS house...:P

I can only guess on Gurth. At the moment, Sorn is your best bet.

Sounds good. I'll try to have another post up for Haleth soon getting him alone in the study - no guarantees on that, though; my life has been absolutely nuts the past few days and doesn't look to ease up until after the weekend sometime.

I don't see that Ang would need to delete his save, either...I never thought that save would be more than Gurth walking in and reacting some to the chaos.

TARA:

I think the next post needed is Sorn's discovery of Scyld's treachery. Any threat or risk that could be thrown at the escaping pair (without interfering with your plans with Anguirel for Sorn's demise) would be welcome.

We're in the endgame, folks...press on to the finish!

I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Or mostly is, anyway. I'm back at work today, though, and last Friday I started a post here and today I will finish it and put it up. And when I do that, it will give at least Elempi, Firefoot, and Celuien a chance to write.
