You're welcome. Now I posted, and seems we also got one question from Scyrr's past answered - i.e., how he got to Athanar's service in the first place.

Also, for further reference, if anything happens outside (now I don't know how likely it is, but still counting on that possibility), if Falco and/or Scyld want to rush in, then I think it would be funny (but absolutely logical) if Hilderinc/Tyrdda did the same at the same point (so, just for further reference, in case such a thing happened and LMP or somebody were to post, you could write your post counting on that happening).

P.S. I'm pretty sure there are some characters who aren't over-reacting. I don't think Thornden has over-reacted about anything recently, and Eodwine seems pretty calm with things...Athanar's been cool lately, too. Coenred is a pretty level headed chap...so, yeah, I'd say we have quite a few characters that aren't. The only problem is, it's the over-reacting ones that we hear about.
Yes, well, but then again, that's where the "action" comes from, right?

Of the "overreacting" people, I think Hilderinc in general isn't overreacting either - except for that one thing with the sheep-pen. I think he is more like, hmm, I wouldn't call that overreacting, but approaching stuff from wrong angles, so to say. Very often misinterpreting stuff (remembering even the initial fiasco when he kept thinking - actually, I think he had never been corrected on that issue - that it was Erbrand and not - whichever one it was - Matrim - who caused the brawl on the day of Athanar's arrival. What a pity this won't probably get to show at any point anymore).

Yeah, Hilderinc, too, is a calm, steady fellow. I like him a lot.

Looking forward to seeing what happens next...I'm about to see if I can think of anything post. Scyrr is infuriating.

Also, lmp, let me know if there's anything you'd like Falco to say before Saeryn and Scyrr burst in.

It wasn't my idea.

I just happened to like the suggestion my friend gave me enough to do it.

Well, at least I didn't take his first suggestion and have her stab him.

Ugh, you should not listen to such suggestions. It could easily have ended far worse for the Hall than if she had stabbed him instead. Unforeseen consequences...

Anyway, this is really a nice mess we are getting ourselves into But it looks interesting, at least for now, and I hope it stays on the "personal level" and won't cause any uproar among the public, since then we'd probably have to ask Nogrod about whether he couldn't spare a line or two for Athanar, if it turned to be something big. But let's see
