hmmm... sounds interesting nonetheless! We'll have to see how things progress. There may also be an RPG lurking in there somewhere...

There are actually a couple. If Anguirel still haunts this part of the Barrowdowns or wishes to, there's his Manawyth character, a Dunlander who is currently under house arrest and Eodwine wants to get to the bottom of his case ... while he goes in search of rumors of his late wife....

Oh by the way, to all of you: Eala and I are building a post via PM that I expect to be ready no later than the end of the weekend, and probably sooner. So if things seem a little quiet it's the "still before the storm", after a fashion.

On the matter of the north kingdom.. Due to the difference in the start of the Fourth Age in the Shire and Gondor - I am not sure if 1436SR is FA 15 or 14 ... The year of course is when Elessar rides North to dwell by Lake Evendim for a while. Even if it is FA 15 there surely would be a certain amount of preparatory to-ing and froing along the Greenway which might be utilised?
I don't think this has been mentioned already but I may well have missed it

Good of you to bring that to our attention, Mith. The "Hills of Evendim" rpg was set in FA 14 on purpose; Eodwine was a scout loaned to Elessar by Eomer at that time. So it would actually be very appropriate for there to be mentions of to-ing and fro-ing through Rohan between Gondor and the Shire.

Ah well a quick search informs me that that RPG was finishing as I arrived here ...

Sorry, did not mean to mislead. I mentioned it merely as something possibly worth using as set-up for a new rpg.

Elempi, I'm here for the weekend...about forty-eight hours. Are we anywhere near Falco, Thornden, and Eodwine's talk?
