Child,

I'll be able to at least get up a save tomorrow. Fact is, I may even be able to write the actual post then, too, but I am not possitive. If I can't write the post, then you can move on with only my save being up. I'll outline it pretty thoroughly in the save so you can write efficiently enough without an actual post written.

Folwren,

I've edited my last post. The slaver has tied up Azhar and is dragging her away.

I am thinking the easiest and quickest way to do this scene would be for Athwen and Dorran to come running to the grove together. Then Athwen could get Azhar loose and try to get her out of there, while Dorran starts to fight the slaver.

Could you possibly bring my character to the grove and get him positioned for the fight? Then I could take it from there. Feel free to use Dorran to set up the scene.

I am wondering if someone might clear something up for me. Were the wounded being kept in a place separate from the grove? I had assumed that they were very, very close if not in the same place.

Tevildo,

Yes, I can do what you ask, definitely. How jolly! A tied up prisoner! Those are always one of the funnest to write about.

I mean, sometimes...you know...

I have pictured the wounded being the farthest back in the grove. They were behind the women, sheltered by rocks and bushes, almost out of sight. They were in a place where even with the wind storm, there was little wind.

Folwren,

I would agree with that description....

Thanks, muchly.

My save is filled. Read it and weep!

These nasties really did exist, and many of them lived in the foothills of the Plateau of Gorgoroth. They definitely did not die after the destruction of the Ring. They were said to have scattered mindlessly in many directions after the last battle. The only thing I've "changed" from Tolkien for our story is that they have now regained their ability to organize and fight.

Hopefully, both the freed slaves and orcs will realize that they both have a bigger problem than each other!
