So... everyone who doesn't answer... are we going to leave them at the Ultai camp?

I doubt the Ultai will appreciate that. It's like going camping in parks, you're expected to take your waste again with you and dispose of it outside the park.

Barufiniel has already said that she is ready.
Not to Radagast, perhaps, but he should see her and not leave her behind.

I didn't even see your earlier post, Aika! I don't ever use the search. That is annoying... especially if you mistype often (I would...)

Role call time?

I'm here. I try to remember to check the thread at least once or twice a week... Haldis is just a quiet character, and not one for lots of lengthy inner monologues.

Hey guys
I'm new to the forum, and just wanted to say I'm been following this RP and its really entertaining, just like reading a book. I've participated in lots of other Rp's and havn't found one quite this deep. Didn't mean to clutter up the discussion thread but just had to say so

A reader! Awesome! Hehe. Thank you for reading Origins.

(If you haven't already) I would recommend reading it from the start (which I admit I've only done once)

It's a fairly atypical RPG, but it seems to be working.. though the frequency of posts has died down the last few months. Would be nice to see it jump back to several a day again, but that could be asking too much.

Awsome.

If you've read any of the discussion threads you'll see how much we clutter them up

:P

I think maybe if we take off in a couple of days, we'll see a spike in posts, especially if we come to a new obstacle or event.

Which will be interesting.

Anything implying that they expected that she couldn't have come by it by honest means, would be a challenge to Tabril's honor - and not a wise move

Haha. It's funny because when Tabril first got wrangled into this quest by Haldis, she couldn't wait till she had the chance to leave. Now she's genuinely worried about the non-warrior members of our previously annoying Company. Hmm... Maybe this is what "the forest" had in mind? It in endearing, after all.

Maybe you're right, Midge...

Of course, she still wants to go home. And she still thinks they're annoying - only with the non-warriors, it's 'annoying, but in need of her protection.' There's more to the Kindi honor code than just getting offended by stuff.

Varna - absolutely right.

Just got off the phone with my mom who ended the conversation with "Don't get mad." Perhaps that should be the ending (and beginnning) line of every conversation with Tabril...

So... remind me again how we knew what Radagast just told us? It's been, what, a year since we wrote that part?

I'm pretty sure it's been even longer. I constantly have to go back and re-read to prevent contradicting myself.

Next time I make an RPG, remind me to make it shorter.

So let me refresh your memory: Waaay, waaay back in Dol Guldur, Aerin and Haldis found documents. Those documents were reports of an orc captain to Khamûl, the Ringwraith who was at that time in charge of Dol Guldur. In those documents (which Radagast has read partially out aloud) the orc captain reports having chased the few remaining Entwives East to the Iron Hills. There, at a four-day-distance from the river, they locked the Entwives up and placed an unspecified guardian to guard them. The document suggested the guardian may have been coerced by threats and is likely of the immortal variety since 'she' is expected to keep the Entwives penned indefinitely.

The post in question can be found here if you want to re-read the bit about what the documents said in full.

Psst. It's "reports", as I am sure orcs have very little rapport with just about anyone or anything.

I'm alive, and I just got back and it's been a few months since I was on das moot. So... I'm assuming my character is around somewhere? I may or may not post soon, depending if I can be arsed to re-read this whole new section of the quest to see what's going on and what I might have posted (If anything).

Darn, in Dutch it's 'rapport', I'm going to have to watch out for that one.

Your character is indeed still around, sane, he just has been silent. It would be fun if you could take him up again.
