Quick question - how long has it been since the day of the hunt???

I'll do a quick wrap-up of what's been happening for Dag's family (with pio's kind permission :-) ) and then she'll do the epilog.

Thanks to you players for bringing this round to a good conclusion!!!!!

I believe that this is just the day after the hunt. Things really came to a fast culmination.

The wrapping up of your story does not have to be done in a short time span. I don't think that Uldor is going to be leading his people off in two days. It'll be some time, so if whatever you're planning on happening needs more time than just one day, then take whatever time you need. (Game time, not RL time, if that makes sense.)

Credit in great part to Foley who has held it together despite everything.

Gwathy, I have got Tathren more or less home. I literally ran out of time before I could get him through the gates - well I did but it was one of those posts that took a disproportioante amount of time because it got better the more I edited out and the exchange with the sentinels was consequently too weak. I should be around more than usual for the next few days so if you want to discuss the interview either here or on PM that should work. I don't mind if you want to pick Tathren up from where he is now or if you want me to make a post that gets him to his audience with Caranthir... poor lad is a bag of nerves and I don't expect you to be gentle with him.

Once that is over I will do a final post for him but the nature of it will depend on where we draw the line.

Terrific! I'll try to post for Caranthir this week.

Gwathagor · 01-11-2009, 11:04 PM

There! How's that? I hope I didn't take too many liberties with Tathren.

Gwathagor · 01-12-2009, 11:49 PM

Do we now just need to write epilogues for our characters? Or are there a few things to wrap up first?

Folwren · 01-13-2009, 08:43 AM

I have nothing to wrap up for my characters, beside the epilogue. Pio and Noinkling? What about you two?

That was a great post, Gwathagor! I really enjoyed it. Caranthir's haughtiness to Tathren almost made me feel not as guilty about my character's evil treachery.

Wow.... that wasn't what I expected but

I never realised the lad could muster so much spirit. I think you have changed his fate... but I really like it.

Thank you!

Oh? What had you expected to happen? (I'm glad you like it.)
