Nerindel - Vanwe:

added to #264

Everdawn & Nerindel - I have mentioned in Rauthain's post that he left Avanill with the rangers, seeing as I couldn't see Amandur letting him slip off to enquire about Vanwe!

So I guess that Avanill is on is own right now, somehow disengaging himself from the company of the rangers. Once a loner, always a loner I guess!

Everdawn - He wouldn't be backsliding now would he?!

Everdawn · 07-10-2004, 01:01 AM

No! Avanill has promised to be a good lad now. An usually he doesnt keep his promises but this time he is forced to isnt he? Besides, he doesnt know where Naiore is and what if she gets him???

I suppose he will go for a small wander and realise that he is doing the right thing!

Very good! Rauthain would also be much encouraged to see that he returned on his own without having been corralled!

So his promises usually don't count for much, eh? Hmmm....

He wouldnt have become the best black market trader in Middle Earth if they did.

It looks as if the Game’s deadline will not be met by July 31st – writers being away being the last roadblock.

Once Nerindel is back, I would like to see the posting pick up speed.

The Game Opened on 09/06/03 – I will extend the end date to 09/30/04. That is well over a year in play.

Once that final date is reached, I will close the game and send it to Elvenhome, regardless of it being finished or not.

From post #877 on the Discussion Thread: (when the 07/31/04 deadline was set)

Okay... what we have planned so far:
Lots of inter-relational developments in Imladris to set up subsequent action & motivations of characters. We are about in the middle of that phase. After that,

*Naiore makes her move
*Rauthain is killed
*Kaldir is killed
*Naiore takes off to the south with her hostage
*Hostage is freed, Barrold Ferny killed
*Naiore is captured & dealt with

Where are you in this outline?

What timeline needs to be kept to in order to meet the needs of your end-of-story outline?

Please get back to me on this.

Thanks!

Will get back to you on a timeline. Thanks, Pio! You have been more than patient. We will be finished by 9/30.

Right now, we are on the second day in Rivendell. As far as I know, Rauthain and Kaldir need to finish their conversation. Then there will be a counsel meeting in the evening. Barrold and Naiore need to hook up at some point. (Everdawn - you never answered my PM. Any ideas?)

The third day is when the action picks up again: Naiore takes a hostage; Kaldir & Rauthain are killed; Naiore takes off toward the south.

If folks are diligent about posting, we can have this wrapped up BEFORE the new deadline.

I should have a post for Kaldir up by sometime this evening or tomorrow at the latest.
