Sounds fine.

Ok, Kara has just met Ginna and Modtryth is also in the kitchen so Lommy or Lhuna, either of you can take over from here.

Sorry Elfthain will answer today

It seems I might actually have more online time this summer than I first thought.

I'll be posting during the weekend. You can go ahead with Modtryth if you like, Lommy.

If you're having time, Lhuna, I think it'd be wiser if you wrote before me, since the situation looks like one Ginna - not Modtryth - should react to. I can write after you since I should have rather frequent access to a computer.

Just so you all know what I'm up to:

Right now I'm going back through the main EMH thread to figure out the dates. So far I've figured out the first four of them (which I used to know

):

March 25 is the Day on which this rpg begins.
April 1 is the next Day written of, on which the wall fell down. Garstan arrived.
April 4 was the next Day, when the injured Lys came, and reconstruction was beginning. Also it was the Day Léof won the horse race, and Linduial was abducted.
April 25 was Eodwine's first Court day.

I'm just at the beginning of it. This take us through the first 7 "pages" and into the 8th. I'm going to list the post numbers for the appropriate days when I have this finished, and link it on the Discussion thread post #1. Soon I plan on us knowing what the date currently is, and I'll keep it current in my own posts (periodically) thence forward. Just by way of general guessing, I think it's some time in early May in Fourth Age 14 right now.

Carry on!
