what comes next
1. word from mark12_30
2. The group at the base of the mountains pushes through the increasing layers of snow the farther up they go, trying to make a best guess which way the others went; which although perhaps tricky, is reduced to only one possible way towards the top, as it is a pass high in the mountains.
3. The rear and middle groups meet up where Roy left them.
4. The now unified rear group chases after Tharonwe, Roy, and Indil.
5. ???
While the rear bunch are catching up, Indil, Roy and Tharonwe continue to dream, playl mind games, and face off against each other in whatever shape things take.
Do they catch up? Does Roy succeed in holding Tharonwe from getting any farther? How does he "defeat the enemy"?
My sense is that the culmination of all these events occurs in this vale we keep writing about in dreams, where there is no pitched battle of arms, but one of wills and words and deeds and consequences of actions.
What do you think?
