The Fellowship of the Fourth Age (Part 1): A New Beginning Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Hmm.....

I don't know what Tevildo will say, but I can think of two possibilities.

1. Steal the keys, but that would be difficult, or,

2. hack through the chain. This would be much easier to do than cutting the bands off her wrist. (those wrist cuffs could be dealt with later). Maybe just drape the chain over the top of the boulder and slam down with all your might with an axe or hammer? That way at least she is free to leave.....

***********

Edit: OK, I see you've got her loose. My guess is that you're going to need someone skilled in metalwork. I know Lindir could do this or maybe Vror???
But it would have to wait till after the battle ended.

I've cut the ropes, but I believe she is still chained to the horse. Am I wrong? Check his post. I believe he not only had her roped but also chained to him.

Tevildo · 01-27-2007, 08:25 PM

To tell the truth, I never thought about how Azhar would get free.

The rider had one end of the chain in his hand. The other end was attached to those iron manacles that are locked on the girl's wrists. He probably looped his end of the chain around the pommel of his saddle or something like that. You could have the slaver drop the chain or have it come unattached from the saddle. That's possible. Then Azhar will be free, even though she's still dragging the chain.

You could do what Child said....take a hammer and slam down on the outstretched chain if you want to cut some of that off. Or you could just leave it and drag it along. I vote for Lindir to get the whole thing off once the fight is over.

If you can come up with another idea, I'm certainly willing to be flexible here. (sorry about this....)

No, that's fine, Tevildo. I just didn't want her dragged around by the horse while the men were fighting. I'll just have him drop it when he reached for his sword, how's that?

I'll do that later, though. It's too late to be patient with a veeerrry slow computer and editing would take too long.

Alright! I believe that it is done. Tell me if anything needs to be changed, Tevildo.

Hilde,

Save filled and moved to another location later in the thread: here.

I trid to do what we discussed. Carl has a wound -- not serious at all but it has drawn some blood. I'll eliminate this if you'd prefer, just let me know. And if there's any other problem, just tell me.

Hilde Bracegirdle · 01-30-2007, 09:54 AM

Looks great, Child. Thanks.
