I cannot speak completely for her, but today she told me something like "I really hope Wynflaed comes there soon". Also not sure when she might post. So I think you might as well post without waiting for her and it's maybe even better (unless she wants the boys to say something to Lithor, but then it might as well be just better to avoid it, as they might be somewhat in the mood of preferring to say it to Lithor's head once it is away from the rest of his body).

K. I'll try to get something up as soon as I'm finished with this pesky paper... (one page to go!)

Coen has gone over to have a word with his soldiers which I guess means he's basically gone over to have a word with Hilderinc, Legate. Heh.

It's nothing important, so no worries if nothing comes of it before we've moved on from the banquet.

I guess you have ample time... Seeing the discussion through inside and outside might take a few days.

So go on Dury! It would be nice to see those two interact...

Looking at what Foley said it would be nice to see you posting Fea...

Thinlómien · 12-07-2009, 04:14 PM

Feel free to act now, Mnemo and Foley...

I'm sorry Groin, but I just couldn't see it ending otherwise. Note the interesting twist, though.

As for punishing the bullies, where's your common sense, darlings? I'm afraid nobles do have the right to "eavesdrop" on their folk and Athanar is hardly likely to bash anyone for accusing Lithor of treason since he did it himself...

Yes, very nice, Dury. I am actually already in the process of writing a post... let's see if I get it done now.

And I see something's happening even otherwise...

Mnemosyne · 12-07-2009, 04:23 PM

Whoa!

Lommy, was that an aim, or a hit? Will Lithor duck in time?

I'm leaving the decision to the next writer, whoever it is.

Nogrod · 12-07-2009, 04:40 PM

O... M... G... !

Lommy, you're such a menace! ... well your characters are...

I'm kind of backing away from the stance that lord Athanar would be very easy on everything his sons do... I clearly promised too much there.

Nice posts Form and Dury!

It would be nice if we have some spare time during this day that Athanar would notice Náin smoking a pipe as well. That might serve as an introduction between them, and if not on this banquet-night, then the next day or something.

And belated thanks to Fea for giving me a nice lead to turn the general discussion of politics of Gondor into the pressing problems he himself - and the Mead Hall - has!

Thinlómien · 12-07-2009, 04:49 PM

Hey, why is everybody against my characters?

Somebody local has attacked their little sister and they don't know who it was or what happened.

Their father has been insulted, and there has been treasonous talk against him on the first day of their arrival although their father has tried to be fair to the locals.

They themselves have been insulted and their authority and rights have been questioned, and they have been patronised and belittled.

I would be pretty ****ed off too.

edit: haha 'downs censors me, I guess it's just fair although I didn't expect that!

Too late Legate!

I half expected things to go this way and that is why in my last post I made it vaguely clear that Lithor would not fight, since he had offered both of them grievous insults (plus, as a thought of my own, I think it would be beneath an elderly man such as him to be fighting with people less than half his age).

I almost took it as far as a fight in my post, but that was me, talking not Lithor. I have Lithor feeling sort of hollow inside right now. It is the sort of feeling when you lose something that you are so dependent on in life (in his case, laughter);however, he is coming out of his depression. That punch in the face could be what he needs to awaken him.

Anyway this is turning out great!

I love all your posts Dury, Nogrod, Formy, and Lommy! I will get something up tomorrow morning.
