I'm for moving on from Dol Guldur, but is Quickleaf going to be alright? It's hard to travel onward if you're blind. |

If you haven't read Lord of the Rings, almost none of this world, the people and races in it, the places we're going to -the whole mission in fact- is going to make sense. This game takes place a couple of years after the events in Lord of the Rings and we refer and rely on those events often enough. I don't think you can comfortably play this game without knowing anything of the world of Middle-earth. I'm sorry (if somewhat boggled) that you dislike reading and LoTR is a big book, but there's no way around it, I'm afraid. You are more than welcome to come back and join once you've read the books. But without knowing about those, you won't be able to do much in this game. Quote:
As for Quickleaf, I'm sure we'll manage that. Willow, perhaps Haldis can have a look at Quickleaf's eyes and determine they'll be able to heal? It won't make any sense to drag him along if we don't have a clear indication whether he'll recover or not.

Will do, just as soon as something gets her out of the conversation she's in. If our fearless leader would give the plot a kick...?

Hey all, finally a moment to go to the Moot Will post in the story soon, enlighten (Pun!) the future of Quickleaf's eyes.
Azrael(?) I would believe it even better to avoid reading too much from our story since there are certain parts of it that reveal the story from LOTR, and instead read the book! Tolkien's world is a treasure chest of adventure

Working on it! But I first have got to do something about the bust links in the Entmoot Picture Links thread like I promised. Work before play. *sigh*

Hey idea! once i get through the books far enough I have an idea but not sure if its a good or bad. Every story has an antagonist and protagonists, so I was thinking since in the two towers a good guy went bad that I play someone against you and that tries to....im not sure but do something to you. good or bad?

Read the books, Azrael. And once you're up to speed on the story, we'll discuss possible bad guys, but for the moment all that is covered.

Uhm... just so you know... when Blossomshade said "new elf" she was talking about Nixie. Aerin, of course, is out wandering the woods.

Sorry for keeping you all waiting. I hope my new post isn't too long and confusing. The text in italics are the phrases he reads aloud from the scrolls Haldis and Aerin found in Dol Guldur, the normal text is Radagast thinking out loud.
For those who are (like me) a little geographically challenged, let me include a map. The red dots are the route we will likely take. That large open area at the right side of Greenwood, where the group will travel through is a area deforested by the Northmen. There's likely to be a village of them there, the group can refuel/resupply there, possibly take in a few new characters and since people seemed to like the possibility before: have a bar fight. You have my permission if you wish to have such a fight, just make sure you don't get killed or seriously injured. After that the journey goes along-side Greenwood over open fields towards the Running river, we will follow that to where it joins the River Carnen. Possibly we can catch a ride at the wine-elves' boats, those deliver wines from Dorwinion to Thranduil. If you're itching for anther fight, you can have a pack of thieves attack you when you're with the Elves. I reckon Elven wine's something worth stealing. I don't think you will get this far before I return, but do not proceed beyond this when you first reach the crosspoint with the Carnen river, if you please. That's where more plot comes into play and I wish to be there to guide it along.
