Fun!

Yes, school is seriously getting me down...I get a break for three days next week but I'll be college visiting. ARGH.

Earniel, I love your drawing--it looks very much like him. And he's away--lost interest--good riddance.

I will try to be inspired and post...sometime. Meh.

Nice piccy

And I just got back to school after a two week break, so I guess that might be why I seem the most inspired. Well, even I'm not very inspired as i have writers block at the moment... more enthusiastic? *shrugs*

Thanks to your description.

Let's keep them apart from now, anyway that would be my suggestion. We can find Beren again when he leaves on his quest. Maybe the TLA can get side-tracked for the tim being and concentrate on the guy Katt wants in. Although, anyone who wants to be with Beren and Morauthien: feel free.

EDIT: I hope you're not going to kill me after my last post, NQ.

Concerning Earniel's post in the game thread-

All RIGHT! I get to be the SMART one!

Finarfin's children wee named Finrod (who would in later years be called Finrollum, and Fineagol), Galadriel (who would become the queen/founder of LorioDonalds), Aegnor and Angrod (famed hunters of the wild white frog of the north with their cousins Amrod & Amras), and Orodreth. (the one that all the other kids beat up on, especially Galadriel.)*

Miriam: Well look at that I have pointy ears...AHHHH!!! I'M AN ELF!
OOC: If I missed any. let me know and I'll edit!

A) Where's Miriam?
B) Where's Turgon and Gondola?
C) We missed some battles, which of Finwe's grandkids are dead?
D) After we finish with this discussion thread, I think it should be placed in the archives.

***Earniel*** · 11-04-2003, 01:12 PM

a) Miriam is, I believe, still with the rest of the TLA, (meaning right before your throne at the moment) although she has been rather silent for a while now. Good that you remind me of her, she'll probably still be pissed at you for dumping her for another Elf in the beginning of the thread.

Be prepared.

b) Turgon is probably in already in his own secret city of Gondolin by now. And to my knowledge a gondola is a venetian boat that hasn't featured in the TLA yet.

c) We missed battles? I have no idea how many grandkids died, best you'd check with the Silmarillion.

d)I think all the TLA-threads are worthy of being archived but the question is whether it will be allowed. Even the grand Silmarillion-project with the chapter-discussions in the Sil-forum was denied entry in the archives, which was quite a bad surprise. We'll see after we do finish here. For the three game threads, there's always the other posibility to put them on the Fanfiction page of the Tolkientrail.

Finrod Felagund · 11-04-2003, 01:20 PM

I think we renamed Gondolin, Gondola, and were going to make it a water city, like Venice.

***Earniel*** · 11-04-2003, 03:03 PM

We did? Where?

I absolutely remember nothing of that sort, but that may be premature arterioclerosis.

Though I must say... the idea of Gondola the water city is mightily tempting....

There was a reference to Gondolin as the city of Gondolas in the Return of TLA, during the map reading scene with Elrond.

Finrod Felagund · 11-05-2003, 11:18 AM

so shall we make Turgon king of Gondola the water city?
Tehy can have those mandolin minstrel guys on gondolas and that will be Tuor and Idril's romantic dates.

Okay, I stand corrected. (Some good memory you have there, Willow.)

As for making Gondolin a water city, sure

, as far as I'm concerned, it's fine. But we'll see when we get there. Still got Morauthien and Beren to finish first.

Renille · 11-12-2003, 02:44 PM

Hi....I am back! For good I hope. Can I join up again??? Please??? If so, please debrief me. I neeeed to be in TLA again. Thank you.

Tanoliel · 11-12-2003, 09:10 PM

Debrief...uh...stuff happened, and we've just met Finrod. Fin-something. Anyway. I'm not really the right person, as I haven't read the Sil all the way though and am just hanging on...
I think you could probably jump in with little trouble, though. You know the ropes.

I thought Sarukatt was your version of Saruman and that Saurokatt was either your version of Sauron or a misspelling. Personally I blame Tolkien for making his bad guys have such simular names.

Katt_knome_hobbit · 11-23-2003, 10:17 PM

Yeah. I know. It's all very buggered. Still, you gotta smile.

Finrod Felagund · 11-24-2003, 12:01 PM

Hey Katt, were you going to email me TLA and TLA 2?

Katt_knome_hobbit · 11-24-2003, 01:18 PM

Oh! Sorry! Wazzzur e-mail? I'll get it to you this week.
