Well, that's a bummer. And, unfortunately, with the last original player of this RP gone, and the funk I'm currently in as far as posting goes, I think it might be time to close the book on this thread. It's gone on far longer than I thought it would, and maybe that's part of the problem. I may startup a couple of new RPs a little later, and see if that helps, but I think I'm going to call Return to Mareth finished.
Sorry to the rest of you, I know how it feels to have a game fall out from under you right after you joined, but I hope you'll consider playing with me again in something new, after I manage to get back into my groove.
