Save filled as well.

Anyone's turn I think...

Nogrod and other Borrim.

Just read your post, Nogrod. Whoot! You've blown the ship out of the water. My congratulations. I'm not sure if there's anything else that can be said by the Borrim at this point. You've voiced what all of us were thinking but were afraid to say.

BTW, I think you are right. If the leaders "turned over" to Melkor, surely there were hints of this within their own people. Such things must have soil to grow, even though we are not talking about the actions of choices of each and every individual. People also get caught up in bad situations not of their own making.

I think the answer will have to come from one of our two elves....even it it's just a bland "non-answer" or "non-response".

After the elves' response, I was thinking of closing down the feast and sending everyone out the door to their dwellings. If this won't work, let me know.

BTW, Ang, I will be sending Khandr to court to query one of the leaders about the desirability of a hunt. Feel free to have them say yes or no....whatever you'd prefer to do with the game. Khandr will adjust accordingly.

Save filled. Sorry it took so long.

Save filled. Lachrandir hasn't addressed the matter of the hunt; perhaps Mith could get Tathren to brightly change the subject to it?

After that we Elves should get moving; we have a busy evening ahead if the banquet's tonight!

Future things to get done -

A (fairly quick?) banquet for the Elves

The hunt

Drenda courts Tora

And we really need to find some substitute Ulfings...

Mithalwen,

Were you going to post next, or should I just have Khandr do a wrap-up post for the feast? (I noticed you had erased your saves.) Either way is fine.....

Anguirel · 04-23-2007, 09:57 AM

Child, could you full steam ahead? I think we need to pick up the pace a bit!

Child of the 7th Age · 04-23-2007, 12:15 PM

Will try to do that in the next day or two....

Sorry I had power cuts last night which made posting impossible.. I could have young tathren ask about the hunt but I am not sure his curiosity will seem too " gauche" eve3n for an adolescent elf?

CaptainofDespair,

That sounds good. I will erase my save, since it would make more sense for you to go first.

Mithalwen,

Hope your electricity problems are over. That can be a pain in the neck in many ways!

Perhaps I can help you here. If you want to use my character to give your elf a lead in, you're welcome to do so. You can have Khandr say thanks for the invite to the nasty Brodda and indicate that this will give him the chance to approach one of the Ulfang leaders about the Borrim sponsoring the hunt. (However nasty Brodda may be, Khandr will be polite to a guest.) Khandr can also restate his desire to have the Elves come to the hunt. In that context, it would not seem strange if your character asked a question or two.

I'll try and respond in my next post and, if it is alright with you, indicate that the Elves then leave. There are some things I need to say to my people behind your back

before I clear everyone out of the house.....

If this will work, let me know. If not, that's fine too. I'll go with the flow of whatever you put down.
