Ad posting before banquet: As far as I am concerned, I thought that maybe Durelin might want to write yet some short interaction between Coen and Hilderinc, and in the end I figured that I might as well go and post some opening to that myself anyway. Also, if Thornden is perhaps going to find his way among the soldiers, they could meet yet before the banquet? (Either still with Coen, or if he leaves Hilderinc, then alone with him, or anything...)

That's a particularly funny line, Legate, since even we planners don't know exactly where that is.

Looking forward to it with great excitement.

I will post hopefully later this morning...Fea, if you get around to it, still post first, please. I don't really know when I'll have time to do it.

Yes, well, this is partially why I wrote that But I think we can subtly avoid speaking specifically about the matter if it is not decided soon yet.

And, haha, I liked that Lilige mentioned the soldiers' brawl to Wynflaed, it is just a small thing, but it would be funny if the news of it after all reached the command (so to say, from the other direction). Or, if everybody knew about it except for Coen

Yeah, thanks Legate, I was hoping to have Coen talk to Hilderinc briefly. I managed to get a bit busy the past few days, sorry. I'll get a post up tomorrow at latest if that's okay. Feel free to move on, if you don't mind Legate I can always give you something to edit into your post.

Hilderinc asks a good question. That's an awesome map, Folwren! Where does everyone think the soldiers should be housed? There can't be very many. Would the 'Guardroom' in this case also include the barracks then? Or should there be a separate building/does a separate building need to be built even? I see this kinda was talked about a bit. I am fine with winging it a bit.

Now it's up to either of you, Nienna or Folwren, to continue for the kids - Javan can come interfere now, or Aedre can get mad first, whichever of you wants to take the ball.

Nienna, please tell me if you want me to edit anything I made Aedre say or do, even just a bit. And please tell me what her trunk should look like! I just had to come up with something so I wrote something.

Fine with me, I have posted this small bit and now I can just as well wait for you posting. No excessive hurry, I think we are still in the stage of "finishing the day" before the banquet, and we can still wait for these few posts before that happens, right, Nog?

I was also thinking that perhaps guardroom=barracks, which would then make things a lot easier (and also it would make a lot more sense - I mean, I don't think there is anything you would need a "guardroom" for here, or, not yet anyway, with the hall of this size. And if something is built for the purpose of guarding, then I would suggest some smaller tower for a few guards to see around. There really won't be anything more needed for the time being).

I can speak for him for we just talked about this - as he's said on the thread, there's absolutely no hurry with the banquet as long as people are interested to post about stuff that happens before it and no one is getting bored yet... So just go on and post if you have any ideas!

Fine enough. Well, I don't think there will be necessarily much of that, but people are probably going to post a few things yet...

And by the way, Lommy, your post was cuute! (Although you misspelled and wrote "truck" instead of "trunk" in the last sentence, but that's nice as well )
