The Fellowship of the Fourth Age (Part 1): A New Beginning Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Should any of this buzzing be seen by Hadith as he is guarding the slave camp at the top of the highest hill around to the east of the camp, something like a mile away from the camp of the refugees?

Who would he see first? The FS and the captive-children?

Sorry I haven't written for some time. I've been trying to brainstorm something up.

Shae is bored and becoming rather impatient watching the others sleep. Fed up with Khamir and following his orders, she has a strong urge to abandon the camp and perhaps find a way to rescue the children on her own. Little does she know, there are more than just slavers beyond the camp....

I don't know.....it was just an idea. I wanted approval before I put this thought into action.

Brinniel - An interesting idea! I'd normally wait for Durelin to give her approval for this plot twist, since it involves the slaves. However, since she may not be online till Thursday, I would say go ahead and give started on it before then. It will be Khamir's "welcome back" present--another headache for him to deal with.

Of course, I am assuming you will be stopped on the outskirts of camp by the presence of Imak's riders. I would not have a problem if you and/or some other slaves managed to take out a rider or two. I would also not have a problem if you narrowly escape with your life and hightail it back to the slave camp, bringing your tale of woe to the others.

Nogrod -

Please check your pms.

I hope to get the fellowship to the slavers' camp tomorrow in a narrative post....

Nice idea Brinniel!

Hadith probably won't be guarding the whole day - or then he could... this has to be thought about (that's relating to the question, whether he would notice the FS coming in the afternoon).

But he could see Shae getting out from the camp in the morning. That would be fine. I'll wait until Brinniel has made her post to react to it somehow.

Save filled. Nogrod, Child, Firefoot, or Undomie.....you are welcome to have your orc characters respond.

Sorry this is so late but things are nuts as I am getting ready to leave next week. (Plus I was watching a baseball game that went 18 innings!)

I am also a laggard. I beg your indulgence. I'm dealing with unavoidable family problems--nothing terrible, just time consuming. I will be home tomorrow waiting for an AC repairman to come so should have time to get that save done then.

Finally back! Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things really quick. Unfortunately the start of school is coming up much faster than I'd like, and I have summer work to do. But...I've ignored it till now, and I'll ignore it more. Shouldn't be too difficult anyway.

Right now I just need sleep.

I promise I will read up on everything tomorrow and work on a post.

And as for plot twists and headaches...anything goes!
