lol @ the wolves calling me boromir all day

[sighing]

Everyone gathers at the docks as they prepare for a journey toward Boromir's home of Gondor, which borders Mordor, where Frodo must bring the One Ring.

Aragorn pauses a moment. He whispers something to Celeborn, and there must be some unseen signal from Celeborn, because suddenly a dozen Elvish archers pepper VR with arrows. The arrows all hit, but she does not fall, and indeed seems unaffected.

"Fools! No man can kill me!", she cries, and dives into the river. Several more arrows pierce her back, but she attains the far shore with almost supernatural speed, and VR, the Witch-King of Angmar and Lord of the Nazgul, is gone.

In stunned silence, the rest of what is left of the Fellowship boards their boats, and begin to travel downriver.



It is Night 7.

Night actions due by 9am.

*** MODERATOR NOTE ***

The next person to express an opinion about another player in this game in a different thread (e.g. MM6) will be modkilled. This applies to future games I run as well. This should be even more obvious than "don't embed html code in posts to leave secret messages"

*** MODERATOR NOTE ***

The boats float gently down the Anduin river.

Frodo looks back and, just for a moment, thinks he sees something moving behind a floating log. Probably nothing to worry about, at least in this game.

Shortly after noon, the boats reach the Argonath, ancient statues of ancient kings that flank the great river.



The group pulls off to the right bank, the safer bank, for lunch. After eating, Aragorn declares that he's decided he cannot let the Lord of the Nazgul escape back to Mordor and warn them of Frodo's coming. Leaving the group in the capable hands of Boromir, he takes one of the boats, crosses the river, and runs back along the shore so that he can pick up the Witch-King's trail. After a few short minutes, he has vanished into the distance. Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Elessar, the Elfstone, the Aaronk of Gondor, bearer of Anduril, reforged from the shards of Narsil, the Sword that was Broken, has left the Fellowship.

It is Day 8.

ok, 2 possibilities here:

a) the wolves are extremely lazy and don't care to put forth any effort to defend 1) their seer, or 2) their roleblocker

b) the wolves already narrowed down frodo's identity and don't need their roleblocker (...they could have blocked a peek last night though)

c) they didn't want to risk getting their godfather killed (kumu?)
