Nice start to a story, Envin!

I noticed that Gran chimed in, too. What's the "two hawks" reference she muttered there at the end?

Anyway, I will write a little something for the boys later on this evening.

Arry - Look HERE - at the bottom of the page are a couple of links to Old English dictionaries

Hey! Nice activity going on. That's fun.

I posted for Saeryn and Thornden. Legate, Lommy, and Nogrod, I think I left hooks for all of you. I will soon get Saeryn back out to Eodwine, I think, depending on if any conversations start in the kitchen or not.

Kara is still at the Hall, right? Let me know if I'm wrong.

Is Frodides still around, or did she die over the winter?

Good job! I had something kitchen-related on the way as well, I'll see if I manage to post it...

I am going to post for Hilderinc in any case, just something short.

I think this has been debated and left inconcluded. There were originally ideas that one of them could die, but then there was no clear decision and no clear indication from Kath who said she wants to come back eventually and post for (one or both of) them. Then Nogrod at least had mentioned Frodides in his post earlier on, and I think maybe Kara was mentioned somewhere else, so technically it kind of came up naturally to the conclusion that they are alive and well. Or at least alive.

Lovely! Gore galore!!!!!

Gran will clap her hands and see about getting everyone to bed.

Arry - you know the boys will want to see those scars!

And about that bear - good eye to pick up on that from my earlier post

Right then! Arry and Envinyatar - we're all cozily tucked away.

No need really to come back to life in any hurry, eh?
