Everyone - I have put up a save as well, following Hilde's, for other characters' responses to Menecin. Please feel free to carry on with the rest of the action. Please let me know if you need to use my save. It is for whoever needs it.
I am beginning to work on a post that involves Benia and Kaldir. I hope to have it up at some point in the next couple of days.

Hilde - Good luck with your RL situation! Come back when you can!
