Before I fill in my save, I was wondering ... is Bella going to be dropping out of the quest? If so, I could introduce that idea.... Liornung suggesting that perhaps she could accompany Ædegard and Leafa 'back to civilization.'

Know what, Nuru? My sense is that it's up to you. If you consider yourself capable and interested enough to write Bella and keep her around, then whe can stay in the quest. So it's up to you, your Liornung character being about as close to the Bella character as any has gotten. So do you feel like you know what makes Bella tick?

Nurumaiel · 09-19-2007, 10:25 PM

Well, you see, that's just the thing. I 'knew' her well enough to have Liornung and Leafa interact with her, but she really is a rather deep girl and I don't know if I could do her justice.

And that question aside, I don't know if I have the time to commit to the additional character.

Would there be any negative impacts on the story if she went home? If so, I'm sure I could spend enough time on her to at least keep her in, even if I didn't give her too much attention. If not, I imagine I'd rather see her sent off safely in the company of Ædegard and Leafa.

Then it's best to send her home.

Mellondu, for the moment, is feeling a bit, well, lonely. Aedegard, Liornung, Bella-- he misses them. So Raefindan (as Mellonin's loyal friend) has a certain, well, appeal, perhaps. Hopefully. Maybe.

lmp, if you'd like to interpret this as playing into Tharonwe's hands, it'll be eermy but it's up to you.

Erebemlin ought to call an archery session soon. No shooting in the snow-- arrows get lost too easily; but draw and aim, yes.

PS what is the alt-code for AE again?

NOn-sequitur comment of the day: I am reading C. S. Lewis' space trilogy. THe first book too place on Mars. It was great. THe second took place on Venus. It was great too. So far, THe third book takes place on, of all places, Earth. Property sales, corporations and shady job offers, and profcessors hobnobbing about. DUde like how totally sleep inducing is that? He was off to such a great start. What happened, Jack??

And where is Ransom???

We return now to our standard TOlkien-oriented trains of thought.

I'll look into it. Crazy busy today. Tomorrow looks better.

Could you write that, Helen?

What, never read it before!??

Don't worry, all will "out" in the end.

At long last, I've filled my save. I've been away so long... it feels a little rusty and weak, but I hope it will suffice.
