USH'S LOTR RP Game part 2- The Fortress of Baranar

"I agree, maybe you should take precautions, just incase..."

"I have seen many strange and unprodictable things in this land of yours, even tho I have only been here a small time, I wouldn't be surprised to see yet another"

*whispers: "maybe the real threat lies within the borders itself"

"Oh, we never let our guard DOWN," says Gorlim. "Arthedain's borders are defended at all times."

"But you will need less men to do so once Embylosse is finished," says Baronar. "Which would mean you could, for exmaple, garrison Cardolan. Based from here."

Gorlim blinks.

"You would agree to that?" he asks.

"Frankly," says Baronar, "I haven't much to negotiate with any more. I still have some concerns over whether I would still be master of my own lands, though."

"Well..." says Gorlim. "Yes... that's really not what it is about. Listen to these others, that is why they are here. It;s not just people and lands Arvedui wants to bring together. It is EVERYONE! Yes?" he asks, giving the players subtle gestures to help him out...

"It would be for the good of all middle earth if all people would unite to fight this common evil, elves, hobbit, dwarvens and a especialy man, seeing as we are the most divided"

"Sounds like an impossible dream to me," says Baronar. "Everyone has different interests and motives. I doubt you could even get a third of the Lords of Cardolan to even listen, let alone the world. If I did not know better I would say your King were mad."

"Yet you know he is not," says Annphor, speaking up. "And he is rhe rightful ruler of the North."

"Many would disagree, " says Baronar.

"The time for disagreement is over," says Gorlim.

"Is that view enforced by Arthedain steel?" asks Baronar. "That is another common view."

"Arthedain steel has no power over Gondorians and Dwarves and Elves and Northmen," says Gorlim. "Yet these men stand before you."

"Yet their people, as yet, do not..." says Baronar, inviting another comment from any of you...

"I can speak for my people, as said before we are only a young nation so we can not support the war by sending our small armies into battle but we can however teach others what we know envolving horses, hit and run tactics, Fighting from horse back and so forth."

"So I hear," says Baronar, "Though I see no army of your people coming to help. I mean no offence, I simply have to deal with the realities of life here.

"Still, such serious matters should not depress us unduly; you are here after your journey and that is well." Tables and food are being brought into the Great Hall. Actually, you really are VERY hungry!

"You people look the worse for wear. Sit and tell me all about it. There was trouble on the journey?"

*grumbles:"These men are the most ungrateful I ever met, I'd like to see what his cavalry is worth, They prolly can't even ride a horse"

Ungrateful?

(nvm 🙂 he didn't take kind to the no offense sentence, display of lil tact)

Well, he's right. Your people could be the finest warriors in the world- not THAT untrue- but he was just pointing out that they are not HERE. Nor can you say they are coming. This Alliance is only just getting off the ground, after all.

(true but offering our knowledge to his warrios is quite a lot, they all seem to forget that we are a very young nation and only have a small army)

But again, you aren;t doing that either, There is only YOU.

If more people turn up he'll accept the offer gladly. But you cannot offer that.

(no I offered my knowledge he should be glad with what he got, instead of starting to whine about it)

Nonsense, you cannot train all his men nor is it what you are here for!

Drop this now guys.. get back on with the rping, and forget it.

okie sure (CK I'd love to see you in a table top RPG, this is a VERY VERY VERY small discussion, PS USH You're prolly right 🙂)

Err, Candy, we were discussing a point of what was going on in the game, that's legit. I was telling Fire that was not very appropriate. Let me run things my way, thanks.

Fine, get back to it then.. n'night.

ush with grumble I mean I can muttered it through my teeth, I didnt say it outloud
argentis can be a bit bold and blunt but not crazy
