I am ready. I've been waiting for, like, a day for someone to post. I thought I'd killed the thread. Loslote, I would love to have your maid join us, too.

Eorl....don't say he has 'descended'...say rather, he has decided. It's not a bad thing to be loyal to one's friends.

Sorry, my joke was in bad taste. In truth, Thornen is my favorite character in this entire RPG
That was actually the reason I said I'd like Thornen to stumble on the scene when Scyrr & Kara conflict happened, so I could try interacting with him

Wow...I'm flattered. Are you just buttering me up?

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. Thanks so much for doing something with the women! I'm excited again about using Saeryn and having a conversation with your character.
Eorl, if you're planning on writing some for the girls, too, don't wait for me to post. Just jump right in.

Looks like I somehow got the role to look like the one who always appears and compains, but honestly, that's not my intention at all... I want to be helpful and constructive...

But Eorl, I think in your post for Kara, you should probably not make her to be so... hmm... sentimental. Okay, I am probably one of those who know about Kara the least around here, having never been around when she was still an active character, but that much I know for certain that she was not that desperately in love or anything like that, and apparently not so prone to such a psychic downbreak either. That said, of course she would be shaken from the rather dramatic events - as much as anybody would - and for losing a friend under such circumstances, but not sure if some of her inner thoughts would be in the way you portrayed it.

But anyway, I suggest for now just leaving it open, but waiting for somebody who has been playing with Kath before and eventually they might tell you more as to how to e.g. edit your post for Kara or something to make it fit her character better. But if the general point is of her to spill out the information, there will surely be a way to do it in a way fitting for her character. But others will surely be better judges in that, so just wait when somebody who knows Kara better tells you...

(I am saying this mainly so that if somebody wanted to continue from this post... so that we might sort of keep the question of the exact words of Kara and the continuity open.)

Well, you *are* "The Voice That Gainsayeth". I bow to your wisdom, Legate of Amon Lanc.
I apologize if I portrayed Kara in an unsuitable way; I am plagued by an unsatiable love for melodrama that I just can't seem to wean myself of.

Though Scyrr has every right to be scared of Thornen if this scene does occur, if the young steward has the force of personality that I think he has.

I have laid the groundworks for the scene in today's post. Kara has pretty much admitted her romantic involvement with Erbrand and that that she knows where Erbrand was headed for in Lilige's hearing, so it isn't too inconceivable that Scyrr would eventually hear of this from Lilige. That is, if she either liked him or sympathized with him enough to tell him what he learned. If Scyrr wasn't friendly with her, (This may depend on whether Lilige was pretty; he wouldn't be a jerk to someone he likes or perhaps even has a crush on! Tho' I do not know whether this is a line that you'd be willing to pursue, Loslote), then he would have to find out from some other source.
