The King's Players - Discussion/Planning Thread

[Anguirel]

I'll do my best to make that family tree here, for reference, though it's q hard to convey graphically -

Dol Amroths

Erchirion (I think?)

children, Amlach, Gloredhel

Amlach married to Circilie


Burlachs

brothers, Beren (see Pelargirs), and Cirdacil

Cirdacil's children by marriage to Aerin the first

Ecsichil (married to the colourless Lady Ecsichil, they have loads of (say, three or four) sons away serving as soldiers who aren't important), Aerwen

by marriage to Aerin the second

Circilie (married to Amlach), 'Sador'


Pelargirs

Beren, Cirdacil's elder brother, father of

Falastur father of

Vëandur

I think that would be a good idea.

Vëandur is supposed to meet Cirdacil around midnight at, I think, the entrance to the Sixth Circle.

Thanks, Ang, that's very helpful. (And about the question of Beren/Sador, I suppose I would - and compensate by engaging in mental/poetic athletics. Been there, done that.)

Right. So I think it'll take one or two more posts from Nerwen and/or me till we're good to go, mainly because I'd like to involve Harrenon into the matter if Dim has time to post (and even if she doesn't) - which should give Ang/phantom/Zil some space to get the party/reading going and have Cirdacil pick up Vëandur, and then we should be ready to cut to Ecsichil's and burst into the party à la Dostoyevsky. Sound good?

(By the way, Nerwen, what colour are Asta's eyes?)

[Anguirel]

And re: complex family trees: I feel Game of Thrones gives me artistic support here...

Oh yes. More opportunity for Asta to be spiteful about poor Harry!

Ah, yes, I forgot to give her an eye-colour. Light greyish-blue.

So if you want, I can bring her to Asta's wagon so that you can tell her.

Good idea.

[Dimturiel]

Would one of our Gondorians recognize the swan device on the carriage and know about the Burlach-Dol Amroth connection? Formy? Dim?

Yes, this could work. Of course, I can't say how much simple folk in Gondor would know about the doings of the upper classes, but I suppose I could have Harry speculate about the connection.

Sounds good, Pitch. Since it's the weekend, I'll be able to find some time to post and I'll join the two of you (much to Asta's annoyance, it would seem )

Bring it on, Nerwen!

[Pitchwife]

SAVE (which wasn't really necessary, I suppose, except I wanted to get this bit in there and then) filled.

Or if Harry recognizes the device, Amdír might know about the connection (having been in Cirdacil's employ).

Definitely to Coldan's. I hope we can pick you up tomorrow (Sunday). Any idea where Harry is at the moment?

G55, I think Coldan would appreciate it very much if Thiliel wouldn't show up at Asta's wagon quite yet.

hahahahasgfrr brilliant.

Ah, those moments of "total spiritual idealistic subjection"; paradise for a few seconds, pretty incompetent wooing device long-term...
