We shall have to see. One thing does seem evident to me: Saeryn will have a choice to make, whether to keep talking with Rowenna in hopes of persuading her to return, or be in the horse race - but not both. It's up to Foley (based on a PM post a-building) which way that will go.

Huh. I hadn't thought about that. Well, now that Rowenna's NOT in the race, all the reasons Saeryn had to be in it seem gone. Still, it'd be fun. Oh well.

Yeah, we're writing a post, and although Elempi may know what Rowenna ends up deciding upon, I do not.

If you're willing to follow an idea I have, which has 3 parts:

1) Rowenna comes from the Folde; her father's farm was close to the White Mountains, and very prosperous, but an easy target for brigands. Should the land of her growing up years come up in S & R's talk, Saeryn could make the connection that they both come from the same place.

2) A 50 mile journey by foot, without food or drink is extremely dangerous for a woman alone, even Rowenna. Saeryn could realize that there is not convincing Rowenna to return to Scarburg permanently, but wait until others travel to Edoras.

3) Eodwine and Degas are going to Edoras on the morrow, and thence Degas on to the Folde. Rowenna could be escorted there by Degas, and perhaps some arrangements be made for her to be given back the lands of her father.

Yes, this means that Rowenna would fall out of the Scarburg tale. However, that actually makes sense, though I never planned on it (it just seems to have worked out from the story itself), since I am eventually going to leave this forum for good. There are now only 2 other rpgs that hold me here, both of which are winding down at extremely slow paces, but are winding down nonetheless. So Rowenna can go, and thereafter, Eodwine and Harreld are the only characters of mine that need to be written by those of you who remain.

I could do that.

Okay. Thanks for sharing your ideas. I really wasn't sure where this post was going, as it became more and more clear that you weren't intending on having Rowenna change her mind.
