Excellently posted, my dear lyrders.
Here's a recap from The Homies... Somewhere off in the cold, dark corridor inside the Gates of the Cirith Ungol Tower, Sam heard the pressing a code to a door. Dii Dii Daa Dau Dau echoed through the long corridor. He rushed forward - but the fact that he still had the Package open had escaped his notice for the moment - and he didn't quite understand how far away that door was until he'd run at least a couple of hundred meters and that the sound of the code-punching was indeed further away than the World of the Package allowed for. He proceeded down the dark corridor, all the time hearing the ORCers through the dim world of the Package, thinking they were indeed closer than they were. Then he heard the door close, he ran as fast he could and finally reached the code-locked door through which the ORCers had entered just a few a minutes ago, but it was locked and there was no door-handle only an opening at the top. Sam saw the opening and seeing it was his only way in sprinted getting rady for the jump, luckily he was Shire high Jump champion for four years running. He drew near and jumped as high as he could. But it was too high. As he bagan to arch his back his head hit the top of the rock and he fell, unconsciousness. Frodo was alive, but taken by the enemy.

Now cometh the somewhat tedious chapters where we tell of Frodo and Sam in Mordor. Please, Lyrders, give me a hand.

No kidding. Now that I have read the book fully, I usually skip over that chapter, and most of the mordor ones.

sounds good to me ...
..so here we go then, with a merry skip and a merry hop to the mountain top ... singing ...'she'll be wearing pink pyjamas when she comes ... oh she'll be wearing pink pyjamas when shes comes ... she'll be coming round the mountain ... oh looky - here we are! anyone for a game of hopscotch? hows about Frodo lad and Sam the man, desperately hungry as they are - try some of the wierd semi-toxic local mushrooms ... and we tell their trip from this perspective ? Might add some spice. |

But first we have to have the ORCers tear themselves apart in inter-union fighting and Sam's daring rescue of Frodo at the top of the Condominium Tower Complex.

I now have tried to do my best at pushing the story ahead and done quite a good job of it, imho.

Thanks, Rian! Together we can push thru to the Long Walk thru the Industrial wasteland towards Sauron's Furnaces where the Package once was made.

Well, that was that. The entering of the Tower complex has been posted, and rather nicely put too, I think. Adlibbing with parts of the book.
Creeping fwd in the story towards the eventual saving of Frodo and the Dynamic Duo's escape from the CUTCoC. Am a bit further on and higher, closer to the saving of Frodo. Last edited by Grey_Wolf : 03-27-2006 at 05:18 PM. |
