The Fellowship of the Fourth Age (Part 1): A New Beginning Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

There are 6 women dead, 2 girls, and possibly 3 or 4 small children.

EDIT: WELL, THAT'S WHAT I HAD AT FIRST - BUT NOW THESE NUMBERS ARE NO LONGER TRUE. ONLY 3 WOMEN (MY CHARACTERS) ARE DEAD.

The women are in disarray, running helter-skelter from the grove in different directions.

There are 3 slavers after them (the two original ones Child of the 7th Age mentioned in her post for Aiwendil + another who joined them).

The slavers are each now riding separately from each other after groups of women and children, intending on rounding them up like so much cattle.

The thoroughly clubbed Rôg has been dragged by the women to some shrubs along the edge of the grove's clearing and stuffed out of the way beneath some low-growing bushes.

Aiwendil has chased one man out of camp but has also killed no one.

Whoops...I wasn't sure about that but I guess I assumed that the slaver did die. I need to start reading more carefully.

You can fix that if you like, Child.

Question: Wasn't Rowenna the midwife? I thought so, but now I'm not sure...

Also, you can add Shae to the list of injured. While it's nothing terribly serious, she'll definitely need some attention from Athwen once the battle is over.

Quote:

What I would like to do, if no one objects, is to go back through the entire thread and change the slavers estimate upward to 30.

I like that idea. I think a larger amount of slavers would be better. Besides, I originally thought the number was at 27 or 28.

I'm going to put up a save for Aedhild and Eirnar. Right now, I'm planning to kill off Aedhild for sure....I'll leave the fate of Eirnar up to someone else. I'm not sure when I'll fill in this save, but I'll try to as soon as possible.

Brinniel,

No, Aiwendil did not kill his slaver. The last time I saw him, he was chasing him eastward across the plain.......

But yes, Rowenna was the midwife, so I've revised that initial figure down by one.
___________________

Original figures....

70 slavers
7 fellowship members

Current figures.....

Fellowship....Three wounded of which two are unconscious.

Ex-slaves: 22-23 dead; 2 injured plus 2 earlier kidnap victims (26-27 in all)

Altogether, that gives us roughly 40% of the fellowship wounded and one-third of the ex-slaves dead; plus another 6% wounded and/or traumatized by kidnapping.
