First, everyone, thanks for keeping things going for the past few days, and I apologize for my unexpected absence. My mom is in her mid-nineties and every so often she needs some extra help keeping practical things on track. Everything is fine now, and I think I'm back in the saddle....
Durelin -- the post is great! I am overdue on something for Lindir and Aiwendil. But if I try to write one tonight I may fall asleep over the keyboard.
Have erased my old save and should take a stab at a post tomorrow.
