Scyld and Rowenna post up!
Since G55's posts jump significantly in time, I attached the co-written Scyld and Rowenna post onto the end of my last Scyld post to keep the timeline in order.

I hope you got it via PM lmp as I forgot to click the "get read receipt" -button (without it I always ponder whether I managed to send something or not).
 And thanks for the kind words - it was fun to think over and write...

I got it. I'll take some time with it. But I need to have it done by Friday's end, I think. Much to do after that!

Great job here! And nice post, FF. It's a pity we had to mess with the Scyld&co. - plotlines by the timejump, but hope we can build anew from here
(Personally for example, all the last posts just before the 'Downs went down, the whole dead body etc. went completely past me, so in that way I am happy to get the chance to look forward to re-engaging with Scyld and all under "normal circumstances" after the jump).I am back from my short trip now, so expect to post some fill-in posts during the weekend, and also to introduce my new character on the other thread.

Just to be clear - we're now starting in F.A. 19? So more of a 4 year jump?
I think I'm the last person on the thread who will argue with that (  ) but want to make sure we're all on the same page.

It was easier to make the general storyline so that it went over four years rather than five (one reason being that we were already in late autumn year 15 where we left the game so there was not much of that to play anyway for year 15). So it should be something like May F.A. 19 as we start - and the snow is just receding (well melting away) so much that it is possible for a caravan of aid to come through. So there would still be considerable amount of snow everywhere (except perhaps the inner yard of the Mead Hall and maybe a path or two to some nearby locations like where people would have tried to gather wood etc. that would have been kept quite clean of snow) but it would be melting quickly...

Are we starting on the day the caravan gets there?
