I believe Arry wanted a permanent campsite for the night.

Arry · 05-10-2006, 03:31 AM

I guess we will end the game when everyone who wants to develop their character and their character's relationships decides they have done that sufficiently.

So, since the writers have been give the time now to do that, I would hope they would make use of it and post more frequently to the game thread.

There are approximately 4 -5 game days until The Golden Hall is reached. It is up to you to decide how long that will take in real time; how long and how many posts you wish to invest in character development and interaction.

To answer one of Nogrod's questions from his PM, Pio will close the game thread while I am away (5/13 through 5/20).

Thanks Arry.

It looks much more clearer now.

Since Arry didn't say otherwise in his post I'll go with that. I'll be writing my post after lunch so I think it'll be up around 2 PM (GMT -5 or 6, I'm never sure)

Tevildo · 05-10-2006, 10:52 AM

Farael--

Would you do a favor for me? In your post, could you have the riders agree to send Dorran back on the trail to meet up with the slower group so he can lead them into camp. (Presumably we've set up camp in a broad clearing somewhat off the actual trail?) I am going to assume this has been done because at the end of my next post Dorran will come trotting up

I am guessing the wounded group should arrive in camp a few hours after the scouts. In my next post, I will get the slower group to the point in the trail where the horserace began: a relatively flat and open pathway. This will hopefully help Sythric who has been having a bumpy time. At that juncture, the slower group will encounter a minor complication (a log on the trail) that should take just a post or two to deal with....

If you have any problems with any of this, let me know.

Farael · 05-10-2006, 10:57 AM

Tevildo,
Way to scare me!! I thought I had missed your comment when I read your PM, but I guess you posted and then PMd me.

No problem with that, I think my post will be brief as I don't have a whole lot to work with... but I'll have Osmod ask Dorran if he would mind meeting up with the others.

Tevildo · 05-10-2006, 11:01 AM

Thanks!

Folwren · 05-10-2006, 11:21 AM

Tevildo: I think I'll write an answering post to yours and then put it here on the discussion thread. Then you or Pio or Child will be able to edit it in after your post.

Arry and everyone, I have nothing special planned for Athwen. I am content to continue developing her character towards being able to accept life until the story ends. Just tell me when I need to have my character's ending read.

Posted.. hope my little use of Dorran is ok with you Tevildo.

Folwren · 05-22-2006, 10:21 AM

Greetings, one and all! I apologize for not having posted in so long. I've been gone the past couple days, but there were several before that when I could have posted, but didn't, because I didn't have any ideas to use. I'm here to say now that I'll probably be able to write a post after Child fills in her save.

How late is it now in the camp, by the way?

I believe it is "nightime"....some may still be awake, but others are asleep.
