I think this fight has gotten to epic enough proportions that the Mistress of the Hall needs to know what's going on, too (from wherever she's been holed away since the trial in the morning); at the very least to order the staff to get things ready for the search parties.
Thoughts on who should let her know/how she should find out? And will Saeryn find out first, and how will that affect all of the power dynamics?

I understand your frustration. It's something many playing a female character in most RPGs here feels I think. Wynflaed can blame her husband, who is too flustered to do much thinking at this point it seems. XD
Obviously I'm not an authority but -- I'm thinking it would make fine sense for Wynflaed to come out into the courtyard for whatever reason (whether she heard Athanar shouting/some commotion or not)...and it seems that by now that's all it would take to find out exactly what's going on. As far as I understand, that is where Athanar is with Scyrr and Aedhel. And with my post Coen and Thornden will be there...so she will be right in the middle of at least half of the...escapade. I'm not sure what all will be involved in preparing the search parties. I'm not sure if these are long-term search parties or, 'let's see if we can nab him if he's still in the area' parties if you know what I mean... And Saeryn knows, as she heard it from Kara. And promptly fainted, the poor woman. ![]() |

*peeks in* I'll try to get a post up soon, although I guess my characters aren't instantly required right now.

Now Thornden was reassuring Coen that E wouldn't act unprovoked but the newcomers will have little faith in that looking at what happened...

Ooookay!!!!!! I'm super excited!!!!!
Durelin, I edited my post with the line you sent me, let me know if I put the right feeling in there for Coen while he spoke it. I also added some more to the end of the post and Thornden and I just remembered something very important. Too bad we didn't remember it sooner, because now Thornden is probably in huge trouble. It has finally occurred to Thornden that Lithor was deserting when he saw Lithor earlier that day. Have fun with it, folks! -- Foley P.S. Legate, thanks for reminding me about Quin in your last post. P.P.S. Saeryn is in the kitchen and I don't know if she completely fainting. She probably just felt weak or something, so they're having her sit down and drink water or something.

![]() Blah. My bad. Okay. You guys continue from here (I need to go to sleep like now and have no time to get online in 24 hours) and we''ll think about what to do with the discrepancy in the day after tomorrow or during the weekend? If Nerindel comes forwards let her decide whether Aedhel is trying to help someone who has been near suffication or one with an open wound on the throat?

Let me know if there are problems with my post, and if anyone (esp Foley) would like me to edit in anything from their character. I know I pushed things forward.
Annnd Athanar is now being attacked by three men at once! Heh. I left my post as agreeing with Nogrod's that Scyrr has external bleeding (I mentioned Athanar having blood on his hands and sleeves), and so will edit if need be when that's sorted out. |

![]() That way I'd need only to edit out the short passage where Athanar tells his son to take care of the "other wounds"... and those orders could be easily changed into "don't just stand there, get some help!" or something... and no one else I think would need to change anything? So the simplest scenario but also a bed for some further disagreements (which we don't have to use but which we can if we wish)? Would that be okay?

I feel like I'm spamming this thread...
I posted for Thornden, but my post really doesn't take up any game time at all. In fact, it is kind of the time when in Nogrod's post it says the two soldiers looked at each other. It can either remain where it is, or Legate could edit it into the beginning of his post. If he does, I will delete it after he's copied and pasted it. I wrote it just to give you an idea of what he might be thinking (why I figured he might not say anything). Coenred might have suspicions, Durelin, and go ahead and have him say whatever he might say as Captain. No one can know what Thornden is thinking about, but Coenred might know he knows something. I haven't decided if Thornden will eventually tell someone that he did know which way they went. That can wait until later. Maybe another player will figure out how to get their character to draw it out of him. ![]() It's been really quiet today...besides my incessant posting. ![]() -- Foley EDIT: I had another thought, but really didn't want to post again. Anyone with female characters who would like to work with them but don't know how (Modtryth or Wynflaed...or someone to post for Frodides or Kara), I am willing to start writing about the women in the kitchen, so I'll be willing to play in that sector of the game. I just don't really feel like doing it by myself, which is why I opted to post for Thornden instead of Saeryn today.

![]() Your joke actually did amuse me. I was teasing back, in all honesty. We should make certain that scene happens with Kara and Scyrr, then....it might take a while, but it should be good. Lottie, glad to have seen you post. I will post later this evening. I really wish I had time to say something now, but I really don't. ![]() Eorl, if you're planning on writing some for the girls, too, don't wait for me to post. Just jump right in.

It is true that Kath did not write very dramatically for Kara. She (Kara) is a pretty sensible, down to earth girl, who gets along quite easily with everybody. I read your post and liked it a lot, really. I thought her thought processes were fine. At the end, though, she probably would collapse. She can burst into tears. I kind of see her standing next to Saeryn, holding onto one hand as she says what you have her say about Erbrand telling her where to find her.
I really like the idea of Lilige telling Scyrr that Kara loved Erbrand. In fact, she doesn't even have to tell Scyrr that Kara is Erbrand's love, she can just let out the fact that Kara says she knows where Erbrand went, and that will probably get Scyrr to come after her anyway. I'm going to try to post something for Saeryn tonight. How are all the men doing in the courtyard, Durelin and Nogrod? -- Foley

As for the other part, Lilige's an average Rohirrim woman. Scyrr can like her if you want him to; Lilige probably wouldn't notice, and if she did, would decide to ignore anything she did notice, assuming she was just imagining it...so do whatever you like with that. ![]() Quote:

As for Eorl's post for Kara, it should be edited at least a bit - for Kath definitely stated Kara did not want to marry Erbrand, and we should keep loyal to that. So if you edit it so that she's just very upset by all that's happened but remove all the thoughts of marriage and kids, because whatever Groin wrote, Kath didn't write Kara as if she was truly in love with Erbrand, more that she liked him and didn't have any strong feelings (yet).
![]() Anyway, nice job people! I will write as soon as I manage... But I'm really busy atm.

Ah, I see. Thank you, Lommy. I based my post mostly off Groin's and thought that they were in love with each other.
I have to run to school right now but will edit (and tone down Kara's emotions) as soon as I come back! EDIT. I toned down Kara's emotions and took out the incriminating ruminations about marriage as requested. Last edited by Eorl of Rohan; 04-27-2010 at 01:02 AM. |

Okay, I posted, and although Saeryn did not answer Kara verbally, she did respond to what she said. And she's sent Lilige off to get Wynflaed, which will give both Lottie and Mnemosyne something to post.
