Dragon Elf, just write an evening post and put it here on the discussion. Envinyatar can copy it to his save.

Please read the story posts carefully. You have Menecar asking, "Why talk to the inkeeper?" But in my post on 09-16-04 I made it clear. I also made it clear in my discussion post just above: "The landlord of an inn like the Prancing Pony knows probably more news of the surrounding country than anyone else, so he's the logical place to start." Thoronmir's talking to the landlord to get information.

I also said: "We have no reason to think Trolls or Orcs or anything non-human is behind this." Menecar should not be assuming Orcs are involved at all. Nor do we know that these are organized raids. That's why we're asking questions.

As writers, we know the whole plot. But our characters don't. We need to be very careful to show how they discover everything.

Please fix those as soon as possible. Thank you!
