Simply put: currently Amroth is standing on the shores of sanity, calling to Nimrodel. SHe's not responding. He will draw back, gather strength, and follow her into her madness, in order to meet her in the depths of it and finally bring her back.

I envision it to be a kind of retracing of her steps-- whether in reverse chronological order or in normal chronological order I hadn't decided: but since they've all been dreaming about bits and peices of her life til now, it will pull all the tapestry threads tighter, and perhaps form the whole picture and make everyone's part in it clear. I hope.

It would have been so much easier to have each character's writer taking part. I miss everyone keenly now. But there it is. I could wish for a dream-summary but I do not have the time this month to reread the whole RPG, so I will have to just do the best I can.

Mithrellas should be a large part of the warp and woof. BUt I am not sure how to approach that. A constant stream of self-sacrifice has been coming from her, for a thousand years. That should be huge. SHould be huge. Should be. How do we make it enough? Amroth's debt to Mithrellas-- well, I don't know. Perhaps it might cross his mind that if only she had been alone she might have gone on to Mandos a long time ago, and met him there. But then, he's too noble to let that stew for long; he'd set it aside. I hope. RIght?
