@Eléowyn It will need to be a very strong soap to get rid of that fat and woad the Wild Boys put on him at the Tub Race. I'm thinking he might need something like paint stripper? @Aodh Hammerhelm

@Shivased Message received regarding posting in the market. I've not been around much lately, but I really want to try and get back to posting more regularly

Elarith · Mon Sep 07, 2020 7:08 pm

@Aodh Hammerhelm @Taethowen @Calimir Understood r.e. keys and commissions, pleased I checked here first!

@Shivased Gotcha. Like Veowyn I wasn’t really around because of other things but was checking in just in case anyone needed some meat (barbecue on the smouldering remains of Old Town, anyone?). Will do at least a placeholder for Slitan Bur for the next one.

Nia · Mon Sep 07, 2020 8:00 pm

@Lailorn , @Allacan ob Burzum - Sorry guys, I'm away at present, but get back on Wednesday and then will have some work to catch up on, but hopefully by this weekend could be back and ready to give this a go!

The Good Hunter · Mon Sep 07, 2020 8:35 pm

Think you have what it takes to beat the best Mordor has to offer in a fistfight? Come prove it at The Necromancer's Guild

Allacan ob Burzum · Mon Sep 07, 2020 10:24 pm

@Nia @Lailorn Things are manic for this week and next week is looking even busier, so if you take your time before we start this I will not complain

Gwai · Tue Sep 08, 2020 1:27 am

@Shivased whenever you have time, no rush, I think I will go ahead and rename the tack shop "Bits and Pieces". Thanks!

Allacan ob Burzum · Tue Sep 08, 2020 10:22 am

If anyone has seen the new Mulan film and missed the training song number “Make a man out of you”, there’s a fun little parody just for you in the Montage thread.

Calimir · Tue Sep 08, 2020 2:03 pm

Guys, I'm back at school full time after ages away with COVID restrictions. I'm hoping my last year before uni goes uninterrupted, even if it means I'll have less Plaza time.

I'm also learning to drive and working at a restaurant three nights a week. Lucky Cal' is an errand-rider, so that will help explain him being absent sometimes

Eléowyn · Tue Sep 08, 2020 2:34 pm

You’ve got your priorities straight, @Calimir. Good luck with school, senior year (as we call it in the US) is an amazing time. Enjoy it! We’ll be happy to see you around whenever you have the chance.

Winddancer · Tue Sep 08, 2020 5:45 pm

@Calimir Dont forget us! We will miss you, so make time for us too! <3

Lail · Tue Sep 08, 2020 11:37 pm

@Allacan ob Burzum I can be ready whenever you are.

We'll miss you @Calimir but best of luck with school and work! Hope to see you around as you have time!

Gwai · Wed Sep 09, 2020 2:06 am

Good luck with your senior year (and getting your license, and working!) Cal! Hopefully you'll be able to still have some plaza time!

Taethowen · Wed Sep 09, 2020 4:05 am

@Calimir hope school goes well and that it truly is uninterrupted! Good luck with the driving lessons!

@Lailorn ... even after our discussion the other day, I still completely forgot to tag you in my Riddermarket reply, so... erm. There is a reply, LOL.

@Elarith Taeth has several things to do in the Riddermarket this thread, but since it looks like the jewelry commission is not quite ready to go yet, I'll save Golde ge Eorcanstan for last. Did Amethyst need to keep the original piece to copy (need to know for RP purposes)? Also, one of the things on Taeth's to-do list is to deliver the apron Elarith ordered for Slitan Bur. ;)

@Winddancer After Taeth finishes up with Lail, she has to take care of some last-minute business things at her shop with her cousin, and then she'll be heading to Se Hæland Æ. ;)

Winddancer · Wed Sep 09, 2020 6:43 am

@Taethowen Sure, no hurry :)

Calimir · Wed Sep 09, 2020 10:13 am

Thanks everyone for the wishes and kind thoughts. I'll definitely not disappear and will give some time each week to catch up on things. Is there going to be a Harvest Festival this year? If that's "Yes!" I'll be there to check out all the craziness.

Wamba_the_Fool · Wed Sep 09, 2020 10:53 am

The last festival we had was a real barn-burner!

Wocka wocka wocka!

Elarith · Wed Sep 09, 2020 10:58 am

@Taethowen We can just say Amethyst did a quick sketch or rubbing of the medallion so she got it straight back?

New apron, woop!

@Calimir Wow, you’ve got a lot on your plate! Take it easy.

Aodh Hammerhelm · Wed Sep 09, 2020 11:38 am

@Calimir

Not to mention celebrating 18 years on Arda today. Where has the time gone?

Happy Birthday! Hope it brings you all you wish for, today and in all the years to come

@Wamba_the_Fool

Are you suggesting another conflagration?

Winddancer · Wed Sep 09, 2020 1:37 pm

Happy Birthday Calimir!!

Zôrzimril · Wed Sep 09, 2020 1:54 pm

Aww happy birthday, @Calimir!!

Eléowyn · Wed Sep 09, 2020 2:28 pm

Happy birthday, @Calimir! Hope you're having a wonderful day!

Amadhrill · Wed Sep 09, 2020 5:32 pm

Happy birthday @Calimir !

@Aodh Hammerhelm hope to have post up tomorrow or Friday, weekdays are a bit busy...

Aodh Hammerhelm · Wed Sep 09, 2020 6:29 pm

@Amadhrill,
No hurry, I'm also tied up with work etc at the moment.

Calimir · Thu Sep 10, 2020 10:52 am

@Aodh Hammerhelm - Wow! Thanks for the wishes everyone. I had a really great day.

No worries @Taethowen

Happy belated bday, @Calimir!

Winddancer · Fri Sep 11, 2020 11:34 am

Omg @Eléowyn !!! The babies! Why is no one taking care of those babies!! :O

Eléowyn · Fri Sep 11, 2020 12:25 pm

@Winddancer Well, something keeps getting the way. Like being dead, for one thing.

I do believe help for one of them, at least, may be on the way. A second one hopefully, soon.

Winddancer · Fri Sep 11, 2020 12:27 pm

Whaaat!? You gotta save them all! :O

Eléowyn · Fri Sep 11, 2020 12:35 pm

The fate of three of them may ultimately be left to your imagination. It is not entirely clear to me yet, though I suspect I know.

Winddancer · Fri Sep 11, 2020 1:15 pm

*Gasps!* :O

Aodh Hammerhelm · Fri Sep 11, 2020 8:25 pm

@Winddancer
I think a baby hanging in a tree might be a hint that someone might like to follow up on? Aodh & @Eléowyn are stuck in the Wold at the moment

Winddancer · Fri Sep 11, 2020 8:35 pm

Whaaat?? You got a baby in a tree and others being swept away by the river?? :O

Dimcairien Luiniel · Fri Sep 11, 2020 9:23 pm

Why are you doing this to us @Eléowyn? Are you trying to give everyone on the Plaza a heart attack? I really need something good to happen for these children.

Wamba_the_Fool · Fri Sep 11, 2020 10:05 pm

Don't listen to them, @Eléowyn! The Mark needs more children with horribly sad backstories so they can be player characters in the future!

Eléowyn · Fri Sep 11, 2020 10:18 pm

@Winddancer He’s not actually in a tree. *pokes @Aodh Hammerhelm*

He’s tucked safely between some tree roots awaiting rescue.

@Dimcairien Luiniel Unfortunately, tragedies such as this do happen, in RL and fiction. Something similar happened just a week or two ago just a few miles from me. But it’s actually very hard to write (harder even than I thought it would be).

@Wamba_the_Fool

Yes, Beda will be emerging from this as a far more complex character than she has been.

Aodh Hammerhelm · Fri Sep 11, 2020 10:35 pm

@Eléowyn,

Somehow double posted!

Aodh Hammerhelm · Fri Sep 11, 2020 10:38 pm

@Eléowyn,

That's no safe place for a babbie, with the river running high

(I read branches instead of roots, blame it <not on the boogie> on the nightshift)

@Wamba_the_Fool, you speak truth, sai.

Lail · Fri Sep 11, 2020 10:50 pm

@Wamba_the_Fool Nooo Lailyn demands that everyone will bee happy!! and will spoon feed honey until you are sick...

Perhaps there will be a miracle and the tree will wake up and save a little Rohirric baby.

Eléowyn · Fri Sep 11, 2020 11:15 pm

@Aodh Hammerhelm Safe enough, I deem. Safer than in Almod’s arms at the moment, at the very least. Besides, the storm was brief, so though the river will be high and swift, that particular tree is far enough from the bank to be safe. So I have declared.

Taethowen · Fri Sep 11, 2020 11:17 pm

@Eléowyn ugh we had a similar incident happen here in my town this summer. It was such a frustrating tragedy. I'm with @Lailorn on this one. That tree needs to wake up and save the baby!

Dimcairien Luiniel · Sat Sep 12, 2020 12:02 am

@Eléowyn I know things like that can happen in real life, which is why I want to hope for a slightly better outcome here. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time writing this (but I think we are all hanging on every word).

Eléowyn · Sat Sep 12, 2020 4:09 am

@Dimcairien Luiniel @Winddancer @Lailorn @Wamba_the_Fool and anyone else following the story.

Léo, the baby, is safe for the moment, but he does need rescuing. As @Aodh Hammerhelm mentioned, he and I are off elsewhere and will not be along for a bit longer. So, that particular storyline is open for anyone who would like to join in the search and rescue of the babe. Oh, and he'll be needing a wet nurse as well.

And, by the way, the image of him hanging in a tree just hit me. I want to laugh, but I'll refrain. (Well, maybe not.)

Calimir · Sat Sep 12, 2020 7:57 am

Thanks for the wishes @Lailorn

@Eléowyn keep going with Beda's story. Cal' will be back from Minas Tirith to help her if she needs help

Ok I cant a have a stranded baby! If no one else is going to rescue it I will!

Taethowen · Sun Sep 13, 2020 3:45 pm

@Calimir Happy belated bday!

@Winddancer I'm trying to figure out a reason to have my secondary Cav character out by the Snowbourne. Baby definitely needs rescuing!

Winddancer · Sun Sep 13, 2020 4:11 pm

Well hurry up! The poor baby is out there in the wild all by itself!! :O
