Gents,
Odagavia’s head is mine, I am just enjoying watching his eyes roll too much to separate it yet, but rest assured, I will. When I do, I think I’ll place it next to Glorfindel’s. Just imagine, an Elf and a human; all I’ll need next is a Dwarf! Watch out Bain, I’m coming for you!

Greetings Warlords,
looks like the Free have lost their tongue.
They should better have heard on my words.
It’s polar there in the north and you can easily catch a cold and sometimes you will get a sore throat with the cold.
So we will only get pale shrunken-heads !
Gixxer
Helloho Khamulia,
please stop looking so fascinated on Odagavia’s rolling eyes.
At least you should unpack the handbag and let him confess his good deeds.
Bye, Gerhard

[i]One learns more with their eyes than with their mouths - for we are gifted with two eyes but only one tongue. Take that tongue and make us rely on our other senses all the more… but take our heads… and we will reply in kind.
An eye for an eye…
A tongue for a tongue…
and the next thing you know, you’re french-kissing a nazgul.[/i]
The mute messenger flees before his head can join his tongue.

Oh, not all of the free lost their tongue,
looks like they found a poem they can use for their words.
Hey Dranob, who has written the original ?
Thanks for the compliments, I hope the french-kiss Aluiric had was okay ?
Bye, Gixxer

Dunno for sure… I’m told it was some poet from Goblin Gate.

Yep… Goblin Gate - that was it.

My dear Urzahil,
Thank-you for your due consideration concerning my head. Shrunken or otherwise, I still am rather fond of it, attached to it you might say & it wouldn’t really take up too much space on your mantle should events proceed in that dreadful direction. I’m just concerned about the football aspect seeing as I had heard someone tell of Gothmog’s appreciation of such things.
Upon circumspect, I believe that Murazor was a bit busy & I decided to visit at a later date. I asked Morwen to please send my reguards but Ashdurbuk decided to come to her camp instead. Very nice of him as we didn’t pack enough blankets in our haste to move to Carn Dum. Things are quiet busy up here in the North so I apologize for my delay in speaking to all of you Dark Servant types here at the Forum.
It’s good to see that Uvatha has decided to grace our little gathering of Esteemed Leaders, Vassels, Emmisaries & Servants ( ELVES for short ). I was beginning to wonder about this tongue thing you mentioned earlier. Are there those amongst your side that wish to merely hold theirs or is this a hobby of one of theirs, collecting tongues that is? First heads & now tongues! Are any body parts safe?!?
On the subject of tongues, I see that the Rhuduar have decided that actions are louder than words. First the treachury at Imladris & now moving his armies towards Cardolain & I. Surely now a vassel of the Dark Servants although suspected all along. The Free people of Arthedain deplore such actions & shall strike in return once the mighty Murazor is dealt with. Surrender now Rhuduar or face the consequences someday in the future!
In closing I wish to add that it is much apprecaited of Khamulia to keep Odagavia safe & entertained for a while. Please inform him that help is on the way.
The war remains, the Free shall prevail!

<< steps away from podium, looking for plastic drop cloths that might be used to prevent staining of the carpets >>
Greetings Argeleb,
you’re right with this tongues-thing and I must excuse me for my DS-fellows.
The reason is the pale light of the full moon outside.
At this times the Nazguls are too busy, even to answer your message.
Let them find their victims to drink their blood and they’ll be back soon and listen to your words.
Now it’s time for me to follow the call, more when the full moon has gone.

Who’s next in line to receive the “Purse”?

Dealer of Death in a handbag
<< Strides towards podium, stops, notices claws & bite marks upon podium, looks up & checks phase of the Moon, decides to stand to the side of the podium >>
Free Peoples of Middle Earth & those that have yet to declare their allegiance.
Beware that Khamulia, Wife of Sauron, has once again threatened to unleash the dreaded Handbag of Death upon our unsuspecting leaders. Duck & Cover! I, Argeleb, leader of the free peoples of Arthedain shall hunt down & relieve Khamulia of this wicked weapon & bring it to Mnt. Doom where it shall be cast back into the fiery pit from which it came & Uhhh… Oh, sorry, wrong artifact.
Free Peoples! Fear not the Darkness of the Handbag! Fight on!
Argeleb of Arthedain
<< whistfully studies podium again for a moment, then strides off >>
Argeleb,
You SHOULD fear the Handbag.
One of these days your going to stride to the podium and I’ll be hiding there “WITH MY HANDBAG!!!”
Khamulia
Wife of Sauron
Bearer of the “HANDBAG OF DEATH”
<< Enters the forum, stops, stares at where podium used to be, now missing, sighs, starts head count of gathered Nazgul >>
Hmmmm, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Hmmm 8. Didn’t think Elrond would lie about that. Oh, make that 8 & 1/2. I see Arfanhil has decided to make up his mind. Please, all of you Dark Servants, let me know when Arfanhil gets a full set of Dark Robes & his own Ring & I’ll come to the ceremony. I’ll bring the wine & crackers.
Well Khamulia, it wasn’t one of your followers but I think Elrond feels the score is even over Glorfindel. Your turn again with the handbag. Feel free to swing away at those poor North People or Horse Riders, or even an odd elf or two. After all, Urhazil is looking to fill trophy space & I hear Barad-dur has a pretty big fireplace. I’m hoping to visit there someday soon. It’s been pretty cold up here in Angmar & Urzahil was worried about my complexion, so a small trip to somewhere warm would do nicely about now.
Now, if we could only do something about those nasty mages pestering the poor Gondors.
Free people of Middle Earth & those deciding to stand for or against us. Be it know throughout the lands that the liberation of Angmar continues. Arthedain continues to wage war upon the dread forces of the Dark Servant Murazor & his vassels. A side note, Murazor kindly left the welcome mat out at Mnt. Gram & I’m afraid someone stole it from him. <Sigh> Thieves everywhere. Not a single gold is safe these days. Button your purses!!!
Oh yes, usual word of warning, Beware the Handbag!!!

Argeleb,
Don’t know if it’s my turn or not, but my good buddy Ji has asked to borrow the murderous handbag.

Lost & Found
Lost
Track of Khamulia’s handbag. Last seen in Mirkwood. If found, resist opening & counting heads & bricks inside. It makes the eyes roll…
Lost
1 Podium. Podium has been clawed, chewed & beaten although rumored to possess a high shine when stood in the light of the Free Lands.
Lost
1 Soap box. May have wet spots about it. Use caution when stepping on or off of, especially with Nazgul around. Please return to Argeleb of Arthedain- 5 gold reward.
Found
1 hammer. Near former Nazgul body of Hoarmurath outside of Mordor. Owner to describe appearance for identification.
Greetings Khamulia, Greetings Argeleb,
Argeleb, I haven’t found what you’ve lost.
You’ve lost a soap-box and a podium ?
You’ve lost much more, I guess.
One of you’ve found a hammer ? Belonging to Hoarmurath ?
First action of the free which was really remarkable or do you think you will write history in running against city-walls and losing commanders ?
We were too lazy last turn. Be sure we will take care the next turns, such a mistake won’t happen again.
Elrond will be found !
The Dark Lieutenants
< Peers into forum room for quick check, sees no Nazgul present, pushes new podium while carrying new soapbox to the front of the forum, clears throat, addresses those assembled >
Citizens of Middle Earth,
The tides of war ebb & floe against the free people of Middle Earth. United we shall stand against the terrible onslaught until the light once against shines over all the lands & the dark shadow of Sauron is but a memory.
Khamulia,
I shall find your wayward handbag within these lands & forever free those that desire the touch of such an evil weapon.
Urzahil
Take heed that Angmar is once again upon the verge of expelling the darkness there led by The Witch King & will avenge the revealing of Imladris & the death of Glorfindel. The Heroes of Arthedain & Cardolan shall throw themselves into battle against the very walls that were once thought unassailable to their deaths to free the lands from the darkness.
The next battles are about to be waged & the free shall prevail again.
< steps from podium while running hand across it’s shiny new surface>
Argeleb of Arthedain
Argeleb,
You have your podium, I have my purse. Let’s see who can ride into battle with their weapon. I’ve already killed with mine, have you killed anyone with your podium? (besides your audience, that is).
Khamulia
also known as “Death in a Purse”
Oh yes the story of the great heroes, but now dead heroes of Arthedain and Cardolan, not knowing that city-walls are harder than skulls.
Hey Argeleb, looks like your twaddle will make your own heroes stupid in the head !
Or another explanation could be, that they fear you and your affectation in a kind of way that has driven them into suicide !
Please don’t start again with something like " they’ve done it for the freedom of Middleearth ",
I say : " their dead wasn’t necessary ".
If they’ve died because this distinguished little upstart named Argeleb has sent them into a battle they can’t survive, be warned people of Middleearth he won’t hesitate to do the same with your lives !
You’re fighting for a free Arthedain you’ve told us,
you’re fighting for the riches of Angmar which you’re desireing !
That’s the reason for your war !
Or can ypu explain why you attacked Angmar on turn one ?
Don’t tell us something like : you only have wanted to prevent an attack of the Which-King. We only would laugh about it !
There are enough leaders who wants to tell us something about the “bad nations” which are dangerous and needs to be eleminated to prevent them doing ???.
The truth is that these leaders are keen on the riches of these “bad nations” and it looks like you’re one of these leaders.
( But maybe your heroes were only stupid at head because of your twaddle, maybe )
Argeleb,
The “Real” reason that the “so called” free attack the peace loving peoples of Sauron is that you listen to the false propaganda sprewed forth from the real warmonger–Elrond. It is him, and him alone, that causes this war. He is a racist, he is deathly opposed to anything that doesn’t have pointy ears. You should hear what he says about the dwarves (they’re too interested in their mining) and the humans (the blood of Numeronor is all but gone). He only supports the elves and spews forth false propaganda towards the true equal opportunity employer in Middle Earth–SAURON!!! Our lord Sauron doesn’t care if your elf, dwarf or human; if you join him, he treats all the same. The same can’t be said about Elrond, where is he? He stands back in his safe havens and utters nonsence about magic and sends forth you humans to take the bulk of the punishment that we have to deal out to protect ourselves.
Argeleb, I would step back and ask myself, “Why are my people dying when the elves are sitting back in their safe places goading us on instead of beside me?”
That, is the real question, and you can take that to the podium (bank).
Khamulia
The real reason Argeleb moved on old Witchy was because he was told that the Handbag (note the capital “H”) was made from the skin of his only daughter. Now that MAY have been a rumor contrived by elves, but you really didn’t expect him to chance that, did you?
Now kindly step back… away from that podium… put down the soapbox… and please, please have pity on the Arthedain who have lost their precious princess to the Handbag.
Of course, you could always return his daughter - he’d look great with a handbag.
