SAVE filled.

Tevildo, Folwren

Shall we get back to camp now and start spitting our catch to roast and smoke near the flames? That way we can be in camp when Incana brings us news of what she's seen.

Wulfhamers and Bregos

It is Osmod and Fion, who are scouting (see the thread) - I suppose.

Sythric has picked the hens from the village (which you left there) and is a bit late. By the time Wulfies meet the Brego-scouts, he would be either with the main group, or by someone (who has been left to wait for him), approaching the main group.

So Bregos, is someone waiting for Sythric at the center of the village, or at the SW-corner of it (that was the other place to meet)? Or do I just write Sythric taking you up after passing the village?

EDIT: See Folwren's post #447 about the possibility of someone of us seeing smoke from their fire, as we are getting nearer to them...

Fine by me likely. Haven't read your filled save, but I'm sure that's alright.

I am putting up a save right after Folwren's. I'll assume she's gotten us back to camp and will start dinner. That way, we'll be there when the other women get back.

I'll be posting late tonight.

Folwren · 03-15-2006, 06:05 PM

Er. . .well, no, I didn't quite get us back to camp. I actually had a question about the fish that I really want answered, and it's not just for Athwen's sake.

Save filled, by the way.

Whoops, I have to run out for a half hour. When I get back, I'll fill in Leod's reply.

About the fish . . .

We are only a little distance from the river and it is late autumn, so the days are colder. They won't spoil between the river and the campsite.

It is fine to take back the whole fish to the campsite. We can clean and gut them there, and preferably bone them. They'll be opened up, butterfly style, with a sharpened stick woven the length of each side and stuck in the ground very near the fire so that they get the heat and the smoke.

Thank you, kind angler. Tevildo personally prefers his fish raw and whole, but will cede to majority opinion in this matter.
