[QUOTE="Graf, post: 4265400, member: 3087"] Some ideas. We could also do more in the "present" castle. Originally I'd thought about having ghosts and fighting them or something. But, narritively it just doesn't seem particularly interesting. [sblock=Possible next scene for Karothen.]You're falling. Or floating. You're not sure. Strange colors and shapes float past you. Something is pulling in your chest. Then a cranky old voice drags you awake. "[FONT=Century Gothic]Laying about, just like always. Never doing what you ought.[/FONT]" It's dark. He can barely make out old gran's face. He's soaked, and lying in his shop. She is too. [FONT=Century Gothic]...elf friend friend dropped you...[/FONT] She lets out a long leisurely cough in between mumbles [FONT=Century Gothic]...he'll come to you soon... accept nothing he offers you... save for his protection...[/FONT] She starts to totter off out into the rain.[/sblock] [sblock=Possible next scene for Eldan]Your dream is powerfully vivid. You're hurt, badly. So is [B]the dwarf[/B]; this him is called Bronzethunder. He assures you it sounds better his his language. There is a hissing. One of the snake people. You gut him. [COLOR=Purple]Bronze...thunder... stupid.. name...[/COLOR] you hear yourself say. There's a crunching sound. The dwarf dropped another one from the other side.

Where he's been sleeping while Jeillia and her mother are in his room. He feels a powerful pulling in his chest. It's like there's a rope attached to his heart and it's being pulled. Outside the house... Eldan groggily thinks to himself. [/sblock] Not sure where how silent starts up. I'm thinking that the waking up during the fall should happen "off screen"; or maybe in a post that's mixed with other times that he's fallen in the past? He could either explore the town as an option, or meet with another character. [/QUOTE]
