Hey everyone!! Okay, this is my own version of roleplaying - tell me what you think or go ahead and join on! The way you play this one is more challenging, from my view.

1. Your post has to be a direct lead off the last post
2. Your post can only be 5 lines or sentences long (not including outside comments on the thread)
3. You must end with a hanging line for somone to pick up (whether that be you later on or someone else)
4. All characters and their actions must fit together at least somewhat (like no making a character a drunk if he or she is against it above)

She turned just as...

...the fear that had paralyzed her waking dreams. A troll the width of the nearby river was trundling out, followed by hundreds of screeching Mandai, the woodland creatures that had cursed her from birth as the Ill-bearer.
She remembered! The dreadful amnesia to have followed her for two years was gone! But she had to lay aside this new wonder, for the Mandai and their slave were drawing closer...

(Thank you for joining in, Dauros! It was beginning to bore me with just two of us here.)

"...come with ill news. I am to seek the Lord of this wood. Do you know where - " she gulped, for his eyes had lit with fire. "Uh, where I shall find him?" The elf beside her made no move and her rescuer barely glanced at him.

...I need to ask for his wise advice on something...It is really quite urgent..."
WIthout a word, he quickened his pace. Soon, they began to draw near to huge "house" set in a ring of trees. As Emnia looked around, she ran smack into a young copper-headed elf.
"Excuse you! And just where do you think you're headed with her?
Emina's rescuer began, "To your father, miss, and hold your toungue, really that is no way to treat a visitor. Don't you think it's time....
