Arianwen: *grips side of boat, leans over and touches water with fingertips.* *jerks hand back with sharp cry* “The water is scalding!”

Okay.

So what do we have? We have the pushing off point, where Walter’s family dies and he suspects Alex of conspiring to that end.
What did Alex do at this point? Did he just live his life normally and roll his eyes at the accusations, or does Walter put the police on his trail and force him into hiding?

Arianwen: *stares, turns white, reaches over shoulder and grips hilt of sword slung across her back* “I have seen many things in my few years. Many strange and unnatural things. But never such raw, unbridled power. I would not trust it. It may very well be some dreadful form of sorcery.”

Arianwen: *blinks, stares in puzzled confusion, then shakes head and starts after.* *to herself* “There must be some hidden significance. But no matter. The riddle was solved, apparently, so why ought I to worry?” *hurrying forward, raising voice* “My Lord Rameaux! Are you certain you know where you are going?”

(Cripes! That’s quite a riddle!)
Arianwen: *blinks* “Pardon— the ghost of whom?” *J.R.R.Tolkien shakes head and vanishes into mist* *Arianwen stands confounded, puzzled frown between her brows, thoughtfully biting lower lip**turns to others* “I… I know not what to think. I do not think it would be wise to ignore even the most cryptic warning…[Read more]

Arianwen: *takes hand, presses it warmly.* “We shall try not to die here, shan’t we?” *smiles, flashes Anna half puzzled glance from bright eyes* “If I may ask… what is a lego bilbo? Is it… some kind of cordial?”

Arianwen: *glancing at Quinn* “No, my lord, to speak truth I do not.” *steps on thorny creeper, grinds it into ground.* “But it seems to me that some of them—” *flashes sudden smile, glances ahead, lowers voice* “May need what little assistance I am able to give. And I also must find a way to leave this place. I am willing enough to go in their…[Read more]

Arianwen: *sheathes knife, picks up skirts and follows after*.

(Is anyone else enjoying how amazingly different all our styles are?— my thoughts).

Arianwen: “I have only my knife, my sword and…” *hesitates, sweeps eyes over coastline and trees* “Well, I did have…” *shrugs* “It does not greatly matter. He will turn up when he wishes.” *fixes eyes on Rameaux* “My lord… I beg your pardon, but I see no sword upon you, and no sheath long enough to contain anything more than that long, thin…[Read more]

*Arianwen stares at beast with white, set face, sheathes knife, goes over and inspects beast as calmly as she can.* “To say truth, my lady,” *looking up at Anna* “I do not know. But if there are more of these beasts about, I would not find a prolonged adventure upon this isle pleasant. Dragons I can face. It is in my blood. But not nameless…[Read more]

Hey… I like that.

I like that.

Yeah… yeah, I’ll definitely think about that.

*goes off muttering to herself.* Remembrance… Remembrance… Rembrandt… no no no, don’t say that. Remembrance. Remembrance. I like that.

Arianwen freezes, turns white, grips knife until knuckles bloodless.

Hm… I like all those as titles, but as the name of a series… I don’t know. The ‘Remember’ Series?

I’ll play around with it some more and see if I can come up with something. I like the chronicles idea, Hope, it’s just so many fantasy stories are the chronicles of something. I may do the something chronicles, though. I don’t know. Thanks for…[Read more]

Arianwen: *taking Quinn’s hand and bowing her head courteously* “Arianwen.”
*Glances around in amused concern, slips hand into folds of long blue mantle.* “Do you suppose that man is quite all right?” *Sees Anna* “My lady! Do you live”— *stops, frowns as ferocious snarling erupts from woods. “Excuse me a moment, Quinn.” *Draws long knife from…[Read more]

Arianwen: *laughing* “Wait—! I… I’m sorry, sir…don’t you think… never mind.” *Stands staring after Rameaux, eyes sparkling with puzzled, laughing concern. Shakes head finally and turns to Quinn with cheerful smile.*
Arianwen: “I’m not… quite sure how I came here. Do you live here? What is this place, if I may ask? I would be glad if you…[Read more]

Great!

Um… how? 😛

I actually thought of that, but the problem is I start at almost the very end of the story, then go all the way back to the beginning… um, let me give some backstory.

This is basically an ‘historical’ series. The first two books are set in the eleventh age (eleven thousandth year) of my make-believe whatever-you-call-it. Then I go all the way…[Read more]

COOL!

I’m up for it. You’ll have to bear with me as I am new to this game, but I want to do this so I’m not going to let that stop me. *nods, clenches fist* I can do this. Just tell me when I do something wrong. 😛

Hey, I like that guys. 😀

So are we outlining Walter’s whole story, or just the parts that mark key points in his development?
