Out of Character (OOC) Thread

[revanne]

I think that Kelson and Liam are in very similar positions with potential threats to the stability of their kingdoms and I am sure that very close contact is being kept between the two of them. Kelson will not want to appear in any way to be blaming Liam's regime - he cannot afford a war on two fronts, quite apart from his own personal friendship with Liam. I imagine Liam would be very happy if the Tolan fleet never returns, what will worry him more is who is raising troops in Tolan, and have they all departed for Laas or is he about to face an armed rising in Tolan?

You know, we are assuming Liam managed to keep hold of the throne in Torenth.  But what if somewhere along the way, something happened to him and Ronal-Rurik ended up on the throne? Who knows where Ronal's allegiances might lie?  Or even if Liam's son was the next heir, there would have been a long delay between Liam coming into his kingdom and his marriage to Princess Eirian once she grew old enough to marry. If Liam later fell prey to some political plot against him, that might have put a minor on the throne, and Liam's Gwyneddan Queen would be in a very precarious position as his (presumed) regent. If Matyas is still around, he would presumably remain true to Liam's policies as another royal advisor, but would Liam have managed to weed out all of the more corrupt influences in his court during his reign? Who knows?

Of course, this is all sheer speculation. As far as we know, Liam is still healthy and hale, and seriously hacked off at Teymuraz' brood of vipers. I honestly can't recall if we have said anything previously in the game about who is currently on Torenth's throne, just that Iskander ho Phourstanos would like that someone to be himself instead of the actual Furstan incumbent. 

[revanne]

That is indeed true, although my mind reels at further complications. Although I think the Pax Kelsona which Bynw says has been mostly peaceful would likely have come under threat earlier if Liam was gone especially if Matyas was no longer around.

[Laurna]

Here is an idea. Adding a second storyline of two - four characters who are part of  loyal nobility who support Liam, his queen, and his young son. They need to discover and survive the Rebellious happenings that is coming from Talon. They could encounter Valerian's middle brother trying the same coup in Tolan as Valerian is in Meara. Only on the Torneth side. I wonder if Drakensis or others might be interested in showing us the Torenthi side of the rebellion. Just a thought for the future.

[Bynw]

Have to get to Washburn's evening and the King's plan to get Feyd's Ward cubes to the 3 clandestine riders before we find out what happened to Feyd himself

[Jerusha]

The plot curdles...

[Jerusha]

revanne, that was wonderful!  I was worried that Aliset would be left in the dark about Columcil.  Darcy would not want to hide the secret, but would not be comfortable in telling what was not his to tell.

[DerynifanK]

Loved the interaction between Duncan and Columcil. Columcil has had a lot to try him and he certainly has Dhugal's temper. I can understand Kelson's relief that he won't have to deal with the offspring of Darcy  and Aliset if they take after their  parents.
Laurna, that is an intriguing storyline for the future but I'm  just trying to survive this one.

Nice, Laruna.  At least Jaxom is good for something.

I wouldn't say that. The right predator might find him quite tasty! 

[DerynifanK]

Jaxom's lack of popularity is his own fault. It is his arrogance and lack of consideration  for others that makes others dislike and avoid him. And the sad part is he doesn't see his faults.

I don't even know about that.  Most predators don't like the taste of human.

Feyd doesn't even like him.
