I've moved the discussion along a bit. Garmund is particularly disinclined to cooperate at the moment. Stubborn child.
 A challenge will most likely be needed.So...a few days of camping? Building a storage bin for the hall? I'm not sure what the challenge should be. If you have one, Nogrod, Garstan will agree.

Garmund is turning out to have more of a temper than I realized.

It's nice to finally know what to do with Garmund, though I'm really feeling sorry for the poor kid right now.

Sorry. Been busy. (And we had independence-day here yesterday)
I'll try to write something later today.

Hullo all,
Foley has asked me to add the following to the end of my post. It ties up Lys' story for that night. I can't wait to see what happens in the next day.  ~~~ "Thornden, what use can I be of here?" Lys turned and looked at him suddenly, an appealing look in his eyes "I do not want to be useless. It is more than a small worry for me. I want...you to be proud of me..." “That shouldn’t be difficult,” Thornden said as lightly as he could, struggling with the impulse to be too serious. “I’m not a difficult fellow to please.” Lys didn’t smile. He was being serious. “We’ll find something that you can do successfully, Lys,” Thornden said as reassuringly as he could. “I promise you we will. And I will be proud of you. I already am. I picked you up half dead just a little while ago, a heap that barely resembled a human boy. And look at you now! Walking - and actually worrying about what work you can put your hands to! With such a want to work, you will go far, Lys, even if your body does remain weak in comparison with others, and even if your ankle never completely heals. “Come,” he said after a small pause, “let’s go in.” ~~~ - Tara

Oi! This is getting really exciting! Golly! Celuien, it's nice that Garstan's such an even tempered fellow.
Nogrod, we'll be looking forward to your next post very much, I think. -- Folwren

We want more! We want more!
You're just sooo funny Cel and Nog. And I'm not putting pressure on you, I swear. That last one was hilarious, Celuien, but evidently I'm not spreding reputation enough.

Okay, who needs to accomplish what on the following Day, and how many posts do you think it will take?
I'd like to make the following Day a "summary or tie up loose strings" Day; in other words, abbreviated and shortened. You know, like... Cut. Short. As for me, Eodwine needs to have a continuation of the conversation with Saeryn, and needs to figure out what to do with Lefun and Ritun. And have Garreth and Harreld come up if Lhuna's character makes her grand entrance. You'll all just have to wait and see 'cause Lhuna and I ain't tellin'.

What's nymphette mean? Yes, do leave it. It's stragely humorous. Your dream was saddening, too. Not all boys enjoy ick jobs. Around here, the least favorite jobs for my brother are shoveling horse manure from the pen, cleaning the chicken coop, and hauling wood for the fire. The wood isn't ick, but I thought I'd add it, since he doesn't like it. But the first two are the ickiest job around the house. (I personally hate cleaning the bathroom, but that's because it's hard, not gross.) -- Folwren

 Elempi, I want to respond. Right now. You have no idea. But I just got out of a final, just got out of the shower, and I need to finish a lengthy (and grade make-or-break'ing) paper on a study of sonnets to hand in in order to get in the door to take a second final in less than two hours and then I have to finish packing, run a few hopefully quick errands, and then I'm going to be in a car for quite a long time, after which I'm going to be at somebody else's house (with dial-up) for a week... I honestly can't promise a single thing as to when I'm going to be able to respond properly.

For the present, we can continue; I'll edit the end of my last post to show Eodwine walking back to his rooms, all a-mix in his middle, betraying just that on his countenance. Et cetera. Carry on! Nymphette means female water spirit, if you go by the Greek; A nymph is female, so the "ette" can't mean that or it would be redundant. So it means the same thing as cigarette as compared to cigar === small nymph. So a rough translation would be tiny nymph. In other words, a big nuisance! Saddening dream? It was meant to be chaotic and hilarious; or at least crazy and dreamlike. *Elempi shrugs*
