That is not what I said. But certainly I will have wasted time unnecessarily if the game is curtailed. And yes I do find that annoying since it will give me a 100% record of my RPG games here being aborted. I really hoped this one would work.

Envinyatar That would be great. I had planned for a fire blast to have killed the rest of Losrian's family save the baby nephew. I have a post prepared for that .... how I am going to get them out of the city plausibly is something I haven't quite worked out. But I can either be vague or work something out if you want to meet her outside the city.....

Mithalwen

So, Losrian and the baby will be alive . . .

Once Sauron's army is pulled away from the Lindon Elves we'll head into the city and then north and east toward the mountain range

Map of area here

maybe toward the Hollin Ridge. I was thinking of borrowing a couple of Dwarves (NPC's) who could lead us there.

Maybe we could find your characters in a wooded area just north of the city? A place where her family might have gotten wood for crafting and the shafts your character might have used to fit her arrow points to . . . just a thought. There might be some shelters there built and used by the Elves if their wood harvesting took longer than a day's time.

Just a thought . . . we can go with whatever you think up.

THank you for the map - most helpful..

I think I can work with that scenario

.....

Time to kill off the rest of the folks then

Since I reappeared before the battle was over I thought I'd post. But I'm a little confused as to whats happening now, is the RPG going to end when the city has been destroyed? And, though this might seem an odd question, how do we know when that will have happened? Will a person with an in charge character announce it somehow so that characters with ongoing or related storylines can wrap them up?

My save is filled. Firefoot, Kharn has realized Grimkul's murderous intentions.

The city has been overrun. It is essentially destroyed.

All survivors will be making their way to the surrounding countryside to the West of the city. Anyone who wishes may have their character run into Maegisil and Sairien. Maegisil will be holding on to his sanity enough to be gathering up the survivors as best he can. He will tell them that there is still hope in Lindon, and perhaps even in the Dwarves and Lorien, even if he does not really believe it...

And now, Celebrimbor has been slain. However, Angoroth has fled the city, and slain himself in the cold north sometime later.

I now leave the command of the hordes to Ulrung, Child.
