Thanks, Nerindel!

So does that mean we will be leaving Ferny for the vultures, then?

I've posted for Gilly. Are we ready to move toward closing up this side of the story?

Very nice post, Hilde! Yes, I'm thinking one more post from Benia after Nerindel's post for Dúlrain goes up and I will be ready to switch gears and pick up again with Naiore. In the meantime, should we just throw up a few saves for this storyline & move on to Naiore's side of things? Or wait a little longer for Nerindel?

Nerindel - how's that post coming along?

Thanks Ealasaide! Yes, I'm thinking it might be a good idea to throw up the saves in order to keep up some sort of momentum.

Thumbs up

Okay - I'll put up a few Saves to close out the Gilly/Benia/Dúlrain storyline. Then we can move ahead with the other side of the story.

I have put a post on the thread that Nerindel had PM'd me awhile ago.

If you have any revisions you have made since then, Mizz Nerindel, I'd be happy to change it out for you. Just let me know.

I've posted for Menecin bringing that crew into sight of Gladden Fields. The ball's in your court now Ealasaide!

And yes, I guess Barrold wasn't exactly left to the vultures...they might get sick, you know?! Hope that that is alright with you all!

Just dropping in to say that although I am running a bit behind in my Naiore post, I do have something in the works. I'll try to get it finished within the next day or so. Sorry for the delay!

Okay - my post is **finally** up. It is again nighttime, just norht of the Gladden River.

My only regret is that we did not think to bring along any extras for me to pick off one by one like, say, "Security Guard #3" on Star Trek.

Thanks for the post, Nerindel! I have placed it on the thread in my Save #328. I will now get to work on Benia's response!

(Pio - if you get the chance, could you please delete Nerindel's Save #326 as it is no longer needed. Many thanks!)

Hey, Miss Ealasaide. I finally got that post out there. I've changed the first two paragraphs and the last one as well, since you last saw it. If you need any revisions, just drop me a line!

Nice avatar there, Eala!

I will be looking forward to your posts, but hopefully they will come one at a time, so that I won't have both in my court at once!

Thanks! I couldn't really relate to Audrey Hepburn, anyway. This is more my speed - a bird from an ancient Mimbres pottery design. It looks almost heraldic, though, doesn't it?

It does look heraldic. And the color of the wing feathers makes it quite 'wightish'.

The green does go rather nicely, doesn't it? The picture came out better than I had expected, too. I was having a hard time deciding whether to go with this one or a blue mayan monkey. As it turns out, I'm very pleased with my choice, although be warned! The monkey may show up eventually...

Eala

Are you still planning on filling those SAVES - 328 and 329 (I think!?) Or can we take them off?

Yes, we are still planning to use them, at least at this stage. Hilde & I plan to close out that side of the storyline with a couple more posts, at least one each from Benia & Gilly. I have Benia's last post in the works - I am hoping to get hers done within the next couple of days. Once we have done that, we can delete the save(s) we don't use. I hope that is okay.

Just a quick note to say that my computer at work died, taking with it all off my files, including my partially written post and an 1100 name customer database for my business. I will have to put my post on hold for a few days while I try to reconstruct the database on my notebook. Then I will try to reconstruct my post.

Argh! Sorry for the delay, but I will get my post finished as soon as I can.

Heya Ladies

First off I have too say you are both doing a marvelous job! I really enjoyed both Benia and Menecins posts. Again I'm sorry I have not been around but things have been complicated and I have been suffering every writers worst nightmare .... writers block However if no one minds I think I will have a stab at trying to write Lespheria's next post.

Quote:
Before too long, her sharp elven ears were greeted by the sound of approaching horses and the soft murmur of voices. Moving with a feline grace, Naiore pulled herself high into the branches of an ancient oak and fitted an arrow to her bow.
Eala, Just one quick question! who is it that approaches, Lespheria and Amandur or Avanill and Vanwe???

Hello Nerindel, good to 'see' you here! If you don't mind me fielding that question, it is Avanill and Vanwe that are approaching Naiore.

Hello, Nerindel - Welcome back! I'm glad you liked what we have been doing. We have been missing you! I will be looking forward to your Lespheria post very much.

Yes, Avanill & Vanwe sounds right to me. (Thanks, Hilde)

Yes I thought it would be them but had to check

Okiees Lespheria's post is up and its back to Naiore! Eala can I ask that Naiore shares with Lespheria the pain and fear of her victim/s, as she should now be aware that this would be the elf's greatest torment. ie that what Lespheria fears most is fear itself and to break her she must fuel that fear with the pain and fears of others.


Where Does Fear spawn/dwell? ok I have thought long and hard about our answer to Naiores question, and I think in Lespheria's mind it is a discord in the song of the world, a demon that lies dormant in the hearts and minds of every living creature waiting to be awakened by impending danger and fueled by pain and suffering till it consumes even the strongest warrior.

How does this sound to you two, if this is about right I need to have some idea as to how Naiore would react to this truth if Lespheria presented it to her?

Ah, you are both the smart ones! Ealasaide the Ignorant, however, will have to do some studying and thinking before venturing an opinion. On first pass, though, it sounds good.

I will try to get back to you quickly regarding Naiore's thoughts/reactions... once I have had time to play catch-up!

I'm trying to get something going from Naiore as well, but am bogged down in trying to learn a little something about Elves, who are in general not my strong point. I can wing it pretty well on character and situation but when Elven-specific history and philosophy come up, I have to hit the books. Sorry for holding things up! I'll do my best to have something up by Monday.
