[OOC] The Tree of Astra (LadyAnnaLee and Blackfridayrule)

[LadyAnnaLee]

I am still at a lost as to what to write. That plus the long weekend and my exhaustion mean I will not be posting ing next weekend at the latest. I rather not end this story just yet, but I do need a little more time. I thank you for your understanding and promise you a response just as soon as I can.

[Blackfridayrule]

Yeah no worries!

Heads up, in 2 weeks I'm finally getting surgery for my left hand. I'll eventually have to do the right too, probably, but that's a problem for later me. Anyway, If I do get around to posting, it will be short/kinda clipped cuz I'll be typing with one hand lol.

Also, here's a picture of Ridahne/Tsura/Mitaja if they were Mongolian....lol

I am so glad you are finally getting your surgery. I know you've been looking forward to it. On another note I don't really feel up to writing. Is it alright if I don't get you a response until next weekend?

[Blackfridayrule]

Yeah no worries! Pretty soon I might not be replying much (or well) so like seriously no rush.

[Blackfridayrule]

sorry if my post is a bit of a mess, I had surgery 2 weeks ago and am in a difficult phase of recovery--needing to rehab and use it but not too much lol. But thankfully I can type. not well, but if I'm slow I can do it without strain. its just a bit awkward. nice to have something to do though, I don't take sitting still very well lol.

[LadyAnnaLee]

I felt like I should let you know. I've been posting so much because of the holidays. Now that they are over my work schedule has returned to normal. So I will be returning to being a weekend poster. Thank you for understanding.

[Blackfridayrule]

No worries! I’m doing hand surgery #2 next week so I’ll also be likewise not so frequent a visitor to the site.

[Blackfridayrule]

Surgery tomorrow morning :/. This will probably be my last post for a couple weeks until I can get both hands back in semi-working order. But hopefully this marks the end of this whole year-long nightmare and I can get back to my life once I heal. Here's to hoping, right??

[LadyAnnaLee]

Would you be alright with me doing a time skip? I like to skip to when Ridahne is fully healed and they are getting ready to leave the village. SO about two weeks.

[Blackfridayrule]

Sure!

[LadyAnnaLee]

I hope that post is okay. If it's not just let me know and I'll do my best to fix it.

[LadyAnnaLee]

This is what Darin is thinking. I know it's not the best but I figured they were at the light pink spot now and end at the hot pink spot. Let me know if you have any questions. I don't think we need to write the entire journey. I figured we could skip to the interesting bits like getting to Azurei, running into Martin in the human lands, a little bit of the Sirens, and whatever else we think is interesting. If Ridahne agree with this path Darin will be hard pressed to diviate from it. She doesn't want to change her plans for anyone, not Sols or kings or other rulers. She wants to meet Hadian and Anojan before she meets the Sols so I'm hoping the path I came up with works for that. If you don't like the path just let me know. It's not set in stone or anything.

Proposed Journey

[Blackfridayrule]

Yeah that works for me! And feel free to skip around a bunch, I’m good with that.

[Blackfridayrule]

Do we wanna do a time skip here, and to where? Or do you have other thoughts in mind?

[LadyAnnaLee]

You are more than welcome to time skip. I have no real prefence. If you want to time skip to Azurei that's fine. I imagine it would take at least a year if not years for them to get there though. But where ever. I don't care. I just don't want to write pages and pages of "they traveled and then made camp"

[Blackfridayrule]

I think there’s some more exploration of Eluri that might be fun. Maybe they end up at the capital. I’ll think about it a bit and probably reply tomorrow.

[LadyAnnaLee]

Okay. I look forward to whatever you write.

[LadyAnnaLee]

What are Eluri rulers called?

[Blackfridayrule]

Mmmm never thought about it. Probably more a traditional king or queen rather than an oligarchy like Azurei. Ooh, or maybe a council, more like senators? Haha honestly I haven’t thought about it much. Go with whatever feels fun.
