I'm sorry I haven't been posting. Things have gotten a tad busy. My deepest apologies. I shall try to post tomorrow.

Cheers,
Imladris

In general: When pressed for time, feel free to put up a brief post as appropriate. Handing the momentum to another team member can buy you some extra time.

The story is rolling along beautifully, by the way, and I am thoroughly enjoying it! Liornung's behavior might not have surprised Amroth, but it sure surprised me. Sounds like Ædegard has some struggles coming his way...

I've been pondering Mellonin's next few days. She is in service to Estelyn, who is royalty. I'm hoping that Estelyn would have left instructions with Morien the Innkeeper to outfit her with a few simple things, and I'm also hoping that he would likewise help out Raefindan as best he could. Little things like a dagger, and a pair of boots... although, now that I think of it, I should think Mellonin would have had some boots of her own.

Orual, I forget-- does Ravion own a horse or does he walk everywhere like Strider did? Maybe part of that pearl necklace will go towards a pack horse.

Ravion owns a horse--well, sort of "owns". He still has the one he stole during the War, that he just never got around to returning...

Ah! Excellent! Then the pearls can buy food and such.

Gee, I'm good at spending someone else's necklace, aren't I?

Does Ravion's horse have a name? Ædegard's elderly bay mount is still Anonymous, poor fellow. Woundn't it be funny if his name was "Minstrel", with all the tension between Ædegard and Liornung?

Since Ædegard's old bay was named by his father, and just happens to be a mare (making this up as I go) ---- she is named Gerta. Sorry, no minstreling.

However, Liornung is free to try serenading Gerta if he likes.

I'd better edit-- I had Ædegard calling her "Old Boy!"

This team continues to perform. Great posts, everyone! Love the developing tension between Ædegard and Liornung.

In another few posts, we may have a visit from Estelyn; I invited her (as Mellonin's soon-to-be-ex-exployer) to put in an appearance. Please make her feel welcome.

The road calls! The horizon beckons! To Rohan, and beyond...
