Those posts were masterful, everyone! I loved every one of them! I will get posts up for all three of my characters sometime soon; also, I will post Tror's battle plans in my next post.

Legate, if it is alright with you, Nisa will probably hold on to Vitr. She's been quite taken with him.

Her. And it's Vriti. Vitr is that father over there, like I said already before

But yes, of course, she may. Like I said, she's feel for grabbing.

I pride myself on not remembering things.

I'm afraid that my post for Trór will take too long to write up for me to put in with my other two characters. His plans are coming soon, though! Sorry to keep y'all waiting.

You remember them well, you are just bad in arranging which of them belong to what

But well done with Nisa and Náli - I will post Onli's response there soon, very soon, I hope.

[Thinlómien]

*waits expectantly how Onli will slither himself out of it*

I will post for Vigdis soon. (Ilya, you may post before me if you will. ) I have a feeling none of the three feels particularily chatty though, so it could be interesting...

Yeah...I tried to think of something for Kor to say but it felt wrong for him to really say anything! Adela and Kor both seem pretty shy...yes, will be interesting indeed!

Yep, those two are shy and given her personal history, Vigdis should be seriously depressed right now... But hmmm... I think she's a bit obsessed about not being weak (that was not my original purpose but that just happened ) so maybe she can even start some silly chatter... we'll see.

[Folwren]

I don't mean to be rude...but, please, can we figure out what needs to happen so we can speed this council along?

How rude, Folwren, gosh! No problem, the battle plans are up. Tror isn't a skilled strategist, but he does know tactics, so if someone wants to add some clever strategy that they can use in the battle that is more than welcomed.

Also, we need to figure out which members of the council go ahead to battle with the regulars, and who needs to stay behind to muster the militia. I wrote that Tror wants to go with his regulars, but this might conflict with his duty as the Lord of Moria. Some might see his duty as staying behind and breaking the news to colony and organizing them, instead of leaving other people to do that.

The soldiers should have reached the others by now and there should be a great commotion in the hall. That could be something to talk about: the view of the common Dwarf on what is happening.

[Gwathagor]

You know, Groin, you might do well to look up a few websites on the use of archaic language.

Here are a couple, I hope they help!

[Groin Redbeard]

Thanks Gwath! I had a feeling that I things weren't in context with the rest of the sentence. I'll look at that!

[Groin Redbeard]

Ha! I did it! Now you will have to post for Loni, Legate. When he responds I will get some of Nali's thoughts on the table. Also, I am interested to see how the rest of the council will think, so go on and post if you beat me to it.

[Thinlómien]

Alright, I must admit I haven't been following things for a few days, but it looks like it's going nicely. I'll read it all tomorrow and hopefully post (and reply PMs).

By the way, I had a dream of this RPG last night: I dreamt that Onli was Lóni's bastard son ( but you know, it must be the similarity of the names ) and thus somehow the rightful heir of Balin. It was interesting...

All right, all right, but I am in a bit of busy days right now, so don't expect that from me rightaway... hopefully on Friday, after my exam, if I manage to do all things I should have done but could not do because of it... and I still have a post for Óin pending somewhere... huh.

Well, now that would be an interesting situation - Onli would probably welcome it...

[Groin Redbeard]

That's OK Legate, I didn't expect an immediate response. This gives others a chance to post.

That would be interesting. Does that mean that Vriti (yehaw, got it right!) is the next in line to the throne?

[Thinlómien]

Durelin and Ilya, whichever one of you may continue from it now. I hope you have something to add. But if not, I think Vigdis is in the mood that she can continue.

[piosenniel]

Please remember that all Out of Character comments should be posted here and not on the RPG thread.

Thanks!

[Groin Redbeard]

Hear that Legate? You got us in trouble.

I'll get another post up for Tror tonight, or definitely tomorrow.

[Kitanna]

I'm hoping to fill my save by mid-week.

[Folwren]

Yay! I'm looking forward to it.

[Durelin]

Sorry I've been a bit busy lately, but I will soon get a post up...and the busy-ness should be dying down for me a little here as the week progresses...though who knows...

[Groin Redbeard]

Very nice post Folwren. Kenan is quite the smooth talker. If the council sides with him than we best call out miners soon.

Good, I love your posts concerning the children.

[Folwren]

Woah, Groin! Kénan is not going to agree with what Trór just said! Prepare ye for another fierce post! Well...maybe not too fierce, but at least one of disagreement. I hope you don't mind. If you do, let me know, and I won't post.

I don't know when I'll get a chance. This evening or tomorrow morning, I'm not sure when. I'm not putting up a save. Anyone can write anything if they get there first.

By all means, please do post! I was actually afraid that my arguing might look too repetitive. This is becoming very fun!

I'll get a response up to Kénan as soon as you post for him, Folwren. I think I'll get something up for Nisa as well.

Still looking forward to that Save Kitanna and Legate.

[Folwren]

Throw 'im in prison! Punch 'im in the nose! Tell him to shut up! Do whatever you want. I've posted.

I know... but, you see, I will formulate it in one word: Busy.

On Friday, I hope, on Friday it should be there...

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

All right, so I filled the save, but there is really almost nothing. But I will keep posting... just right now, like I said, I've been a bit busy... and still I am, in a way.

[Durelin]

There is a "save" sorta within my post to add something for Kor later (because I have to go to class soon), but that is only a save if Ilya does not post to continue the little drinking party in the meantime. (Meaning - post away and do not wait for me to fill in for Kor!)

[Folwren]

Hey, look! It's midweek, about. If we're lucky, maybe Kitanna will post today. (<--- hopeful grins)

[Groin Redbeard]

My post is now up. Tror has put his dispute, with Kenan, to an end. I'm really sorry that I wrote this, but I flipped the coin and that's what it came up as. If you want me to put a less consequential punishment for Kenan, Folwren, I would be happy to do so. I felt really bad about writing it, since you are such a great writer and likable person. Please let me know if I should edit anything!

Legate, Nisa wants to leave Onli. Whether Onli wants her to stay or go is entirely up to you. I'm perfectly satisfied either way.

Oh, heck, NO! Don't change it, it was great! I wasn't expecting that, but I think it's fine. And it's no reflection on me personally, so I'm good. It will add certain interest to the story, I am sure. I won't be leaving the RPG just because my character was thrown out of the council, so you'll still be seeing my posts. lol.

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Groin, I have to disappoint you, I haven't posted for Onli yet, but I will do that as soon as possible. Meanwhile, I hope the post for Óin will be sufficient. That should be the last from him until he arrives to Moria. If there is need to change anything, just inform me.

And I also hope more people will post! That also means, I hope the events will move a bit, so that everybody can post...

[Kitanna]

I was much further behind on reading for this than I thought. So I moved my save so I could be up to date with my post. I have no work and no school tomorrow, so sometime tomorrow I'll fill it in.

[Groin Redbeard]

I will get a post up, either today or tomorrow, to finish Tror's thought on keeping Korin.

No problems, Legate; that post was more than enough to keep me entertained. Tror will be leaving soon, along with whomever wants to come, to see if they can find Óin. Great job on your descriptions; I love the fact that you keep reiterating the fact that Óin doesn't know that Balin is dead.

I can't wait to see your post, Kitanna!

I am currently trying to contact Lilly and Arry; I really miss their posts (I also miss a few other players posts who shall remain nameless ). Do any of y'all know of a way to get to them, other than PMing?

[Kitanna]

I filled in my save.

I had Iari leave her house in search of companionship. I was wondering if she could go to the Silverfists since Tíva and Tív are around her age. Of course that depends upon what Lilly and Arry are planning.

[Folwren]

Kitanna -

I replied to your PM as soon as I got on and THEN I saw that you had already gone ahead and posted. Good! That's pretty much what I said to do in my PM...

I like Kéni. He's a brave boy. Very brave indeed.

I'll post tomorrow, hopefully. No promises, though - have unexpected homework to accomplish tomorrow. So we'll see.

-- Folwren

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

All right. Groin, I made it so that it's on your choice if Nisa is still around or if she disappeared when Onli was thinking. Folwren & Kit, you may choose if Kénan or Kéni notice Onli and/or mind him overhearing their "private family discussion".

[Kitanna]

I could go either way, honestly. Onli does overhear and the other two notice then Iari can have her own little adventure.

Thanks Legate, I will get a post up tomorrow for my three characters.

The council is concluded; so, feel free to post for your characters on its outcome. Tror will stay behind a minute to talk to Korin, who he asked to stay, before he organizes a scouting party to see if they can find Oin. Gwath & Lommy, would you like to be a part of that foray?

Nali will first talk to Onli, and then go to the first hall and organize the regulars. If you don't want to go on the scouting mission, Lommy, it would be Ori's duty to break the news to the colony. However, I assume that the nobles can pitch in to help now that Balin is gone.

[Thinlómien]

I've been terribly busy and from tomorrow on I'm going to be without a net access until weekend, so this is not looking very good for my posting... But I'll post on Friday or Saturday.

Groin - Ori is definitely worried about Óin and feels he should be the one to break the news to him BUT he's no scout and he feels he's too old for prancing around like that (never mind the fact that Óin is actually older than him ) and would maybe rather take some other duty.
