*takes a peek at all the information* Thank you for that Jenny!

I'm terribly sorry all, I didn't even think to look for info on locks and the like when I posted for Sorn in the study. Posting late on Friday nights has some drawbacks...

I mentioned Sorn had a 'key', though I really went into no detail. It would probably have to be some sort of lock with a portable key, as Sorn has it in his pocket at this current point in time.

Hopefully that helps narrow down a possible design. Again, so sorry that I made this necesary!

BTW, Fire do we plan on letting Scyld get away with it...or maybe make it a little more dangerous?

Don't know yet... depends a lot on what Scyld actually decides to do... he certainly won't go after her stuff until time is coming for her to be rescued. But dangerous is good...

Save is filled. I'll probably have something up for Haleth a bit later (he's just not as interesting compared to Scyld... ).

Also thanks for the feedback on locks. One of Jenny's websites said something about lock-picking not becoming a problem until 19th century sometime, which is when locks started getting more complicated, so I'm going to guess that Rohirric locks weren't terribly complicated. (With Sorn's reputation, I doubt he has to worry much about thieves anyway ). So Scyld has officially become something of a lock-pick.

Hello? Alcarillo? There was a question in post #57 that got left unanswered. And that little piece of plot development seems rather critical to the rescue of our heroine, don't you think? I guess Pio can insert as needed, but it would be nice to get this (not so) little side note taken care of.

I'm back, everyone, and wondering where I can jump in.

I second that. I got the idea while glancing at the game thread that sometime when Derren came back to report to Haleth and Eodwine he could spot Alcarillo's two characters, and while he might not actually recognize their faces, he'll know their names and their voices. . .

However, he probably would have had a chance to see them before these four days had passed - except if he had only come in briefly and left as soon as giving his report and receiving new orders. In which case, he would only by chance cross paths with Alcarillo's characters.

If Derren recognizes them and realizes that they really shouldn't be in the city, then it could be one thread that is picked up on and reported.

What does everyone think?

Also, where is Thornden at the time?

Alcarillo hasn't posted since June 24.

This means that he's back July 2. I don't feel up to handling Osfrid's spying. Does anybody else? I suggest that Alcarillo write this when he gets back, and has Pio insert it in a likely spot in the thread. Foley, are you willing to wait until July 2? If not, we could use your idea and see where it takes us. Maybe we need to use this discussion thread as our drafting quarters to fill in that story line?

Oh, yes, I'd be very happy to wait. In fact, it makes me much more less stressed. That's Sunday, June 2, right? Well, I will be gone that date. May return Monday late, or Tuesday mid afternoon. However, I may have computer access while I'm gone. Dunno yet.

But, yes, I'm fine with waiting on Alcarillo, and yes, also, we could use this Discussion thread for some drafting.
