FELLOWSHIP PHASE - The Road East And West

[Telcontar]

Im a dumb dumb, i kept thinking the old forest road was in the North Narrows. I now see my long standing mistake. The road is really good for beorn and the woodmen.

Matt, Grimbeorn clears four points of Shadow. 

Paul ideas on who Hathcyn would meet on the Road? We havnet really been using the Patron concept too much in this game.

The obvious answer is Balin, who has clearly been very impressed with Hathcyn in particular.  I think he sees in him someone who is simultaneously trustworthy enough to entrust with important missions and willing to drop whatever is going on in his personal life and go for a long wander at the drop of a hat.  This is good, because he's looking for someone to scout out a place called 'Dimrill Dale' for some reason. 

(I'm going to spend money on this and count it towards standing if that's cool?)

The standing stone at the entrance to the Road is balls-out awesome and I absolutely endorse you using it as a Standing expense.  Are you done with Hathcyn's sheet?  I ask because his AP haven't been cleared and I don't want do to it for you until I'm sure that everything else is done. 

[Telcontar]

Yes, his sheet is done.

I also agree that Balin seems like a good choice.

[Eclecticon]

Cool, let's go with that, then.  Dwarves rock.

Last things last, I just need you guys to come up with a reason to all have gathered at Beorn's House (or the Fox's Tale) in late April 2957.  It doesn't have to be anything too elaborate - just something that explains why you're all together again. 

The starting Eye Awareness, for those interested in tracking such things, will be nine.

[Telcontar]

Preparation for the Celebration of a May Pole festival and the arrival of Dorwinion wine from the east?

[Eclecticon]

Qui tacet concentire videtur.  I'm going to go with this.
