Title: "Fletcher's New Place"
Post by: Gustavo on July 11, 2008, 02:43:56
"Fletcher's New Place",
PART I

Fletcher had been living near the village of Zirn for quite a time, now: about four years! But Lo! that he finally found a better place for him, near Degendorf. Having just left the place where he was, he's preparing his departure ...

In the woods north of the Dunaj, sometimes a person can still find friends of the silvans. Here's a silvan. She's a young doe, they say. I don't know the speech of the deers, but they say they have a beautiful accent ... Anyway, wherever you find this doe -- whose name happens to be Doe -- you will usually also find ...

... Nomy. Nomy isn't a silvan. She's a hollower, of a quite reputed family, by the way! But we souldn't know that.

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0669.jpg)



                                        Hello, Fletcher!
Hello, Nomy! How are you?                   
(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0670.jpg)



Fine ... What are you doing?

Haven't you known? I'm moving.                             
I've found a nice hollower place near                             
Querquetulon, and I decided to try                             
making a place for me to be a little more                             
quiet ...                             

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0671.jpg)



                              Oh ... Querquetulon? ...
                              Not the best place to live ...


I know. But it's a beginning.                             
Wouldn't ye care to give a hand, lass?                             

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0672.jpg)



                              All right ... Only, I'm not sure I can
                              be of big help, you see: you men carry
                              quite a lot of big stuff! ...


Oh, c'mon!: look, I don't have much stuff.                             
You could carry the lighter things ...                             


                              I thought you had more candlesticks ...

I do. They're there, already.                             
I've been taking some of the things                             
before ...                             

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0673.jpg)



&, Once they were talking, it happened that time flew, and they managed to get all the rest on the car, and then, took the way to Querquetulon, the wood south of Degendorf.

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02a_fletcher_s_moving/000_0674.jpg)



                              Whoopa! Whoopa!, Lets go, Friend!,
                              Whoopa! Whoopa! Lets go lad!


And so, have you managed to make acquaintance                             
with that knight you were following, the other day?

Great little story Gus, peaceful scenes are possible in the Medieval setting, even if Playmobil don't encourage them.

I love that little cart, it's useful for so many themes from Romans onwards. I've got several, but have never used them for such a nice story.

My favourite touch is the little bluebird moving about on the running board!

You have a real gift for story telling, Gus!


If you're not careful, you might become another Tolkien (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._R._R._Tolkien) ...  :klickywink:

Hi Gus
Nice pictures!  A lot of the narrative is interesting.

My opinion: with installment stories like this, maybe you could end with a stronger hook.

Quote
And so, have you managed to make acquaintance                             
with that knight you were following, the other day?               

The above isn't so bad--and may only seem mild because English is your second language.

Maybe I just needed more context--is there a conflict?  "make acquaintance" is a tame phrase.  On the other hand the fact he was following somebody and may not have caught him suggests some sort of problem is afoot.  But, again, the tameness of the phrase ("make acquaintence") leaves us thinking the archer is just a lonely guy, or some harmless fellow, and was pursuing this knight just to say "hi" (and the knight clearly didn't want to be bothered).

This was the sort of complaints editor made when I was on the market. 

Who?  What?  Where?  Why?  How?

Hi Gus,  I like your new story, you're still keeping it simple without too many props and with a nice innocence about it, like a child's story.  Look forward to the next episode.

Tim, the context is here

Cliffhanger endings can be subtle.

I mistook Gus's first story as a "playful satire" on us fellows who collect historical military themes, and I didn't see that story having any narrative beyond that.

But, in the end, I'm contradicting myself--the question: why is the archer fellow harassing the knight? argues that I am interested in seeing where this plays out.

"Fletcher's New Place",
PART II

"The first part of the trip"
or "On the way to Degendorf"

As Fletcher the Archer and his hollower friend put themselves on the way to Querquetulon, the Wood south of the Bladros' village, they were talking about daily affairs ...

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02b_fletcher_s_moving_part_ii/fletcher_s_trip01.jpg)



But, er ... What about you, Nomy? Has the magistrate given you
any answer on the matter of the kids?


Oh Fletcher ... It's a very tough matter to a hollower widow ...                                                 
Once they're so young, I believe I'll may ask my                                                 
lord's help on the trials ...                                                 

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02b_fletcher_s_moving_part_ii/fletcher_s_trip02.jpg)



I know your people don't like intervention of us,
the bigs, but, well ... We're close : I could speak for you,
if need be ...


Nah, you're right : Woudn't help. Thanks, anyway,                                                 
it's kind of you to make such an offer. I'll tell my                                                 
eighth brother, who's magistrate near Utrecz ...                                                 
He could give me ideas on how to use a biggy's                                                 
testimony in my favour. Alas that you are a well                                                 
reputed fellow, among the Tapian hollowers ...                                                 
But, well : Are you avoiding the subject of that                                                 
knight I found you following, the other day,                                                 
or is it an impression of mine? We could talk about                                                 
something else, all right.

All right, you got me. His name's Elmo. He's the son
of the king, and I--


King Wilhelm's son? King Wilhelm has no son!                                                                     

Right, sorry : Exactly, King Wilhelm has no son ... He's
Lord Davo's son ...


Sir Davo's son is dead ... Long ago!                                                                     

Anyway! : He's Davo's grandson, who ...--

                                                                      I'm sorry, lad : You called me "friend", but I
                                                                      can't spot your face in my memory ...
                                                                      Do recall me, please, I beg you!

you, sir ; Friend is the name of my horse!

No problem ... Er, only, you see? : I'm moving, so

According to plan, another part of the trip is coming up this weekend. (I hope I'll manage, cause it may turn out not to be a fully free weekend :( ...). It's shot, already, but the shooting hasn't been the most difficult part.

I don't mind commentaries (or suggestions ;) ) in the middle, as long as they come spontaneously, of course! :yup:

'Hope to publish more soon :)

In touch,

"Fletcher's New Place",
PART III

Reaching the Border

On the way to Querquetulon, Fletcher and Nomy found Feortegot, a traveler, gentleman of generous figure, and now, they had more company!

So, is it really to Degendorf you're moving, son?                             

                              Me? Aw no, sir, ... Actually, I've found a very nice second
                              hand hollower place just south of Querquetulon, and ...

Querquetulon?? That's not a nice place to live,                             
if I may beg your pardon being honest ...                             


                              Or so they say, but, you see, there was

I'll better get down,                                                                                                   
talk to him ...

                              Appearently they
                               know each other ...


You bet!

                    Hey! :
                    That isn't right! Storyteller said there was
                    gonna be nobody else in these stories
                    besides the ones already introduced
                    in the "Dramatis-personay", besides you,
                    who were a, kind of a surprise ...


But that guy ins't a new character ...                                                           
He's only the border man, he'll probably                                                           
not linger. Unless Fletcher convinces him                                                           
to come with us, but if so this trip will                                                           
become uncomfortable, all right ...                                                           


                    Humf!!

                                                                                          So, where have you been?
                                                                                          What've been doing, since you left
                                                                                          King Wilhelm's archers company? ...


                                        Aw, no more soldier life to me,
                                        Gus ... I'm going into hunting business,
                                        I believe ... Besides, there's this succession
                                        matter, that left the realm a real mess! ...


Border man, aye? ... Humf! ...

Playmo Ladies & Gentlemen!

Next part is shot already, but I'll have to divide it in two parts, because of the dialogue part, that is very much hard work for one Sunday afternoon ... (It'd take me up into the night, and I intend to do other things as well ... After all, playmo is part of life, not all of it / It has almost been ::), when I was before 6-7 ... But it was a long time ago (...).)

Even so, I'll publish them as Parts IV & V separately, under title of "Fletcher's New Place", although there will be alternative titles :evilplan: ...

I hope you like them! :yup:

Yours

Gus

FLETCHER'S NEW PLACE
Part IV

The meeting episode

On their way to Querquetulon, the wood south of Degendorf, Fletcher happened to find an old friend. While they were chatting about Tapian politics ...

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02d_fletcher_s_moving_part_iv/elmo_et_fletcher001.jpg)

... There it happened that a knight was coming on the way back from the Bladros' village.

                                                  I'm moving, you know, Gus? I've just found a place south
                                                  of Degendorf, and I think I'm finally going to settle down,
                                                  and ...


                                                                      Oh ... South of Degendorf is Querquetulon ...

Yeah. I--         

                                                                      They say it isn't a nice place to live ...

So they say ...

Oh, look! : Another man.
Now it's gonna be a delay, grmbl!


Where?!

Right there!                                                                               

Oh no! ... Uhm,  Interesting!                                                                                                                       

                                                                                          But, you see, Querquetulon
                                                                                          has been under great rule, since last ...

                                                                      Hello, Gus! How are you doing?
                                                                      What's the news in the border?

It's doing fine, milord!                                                 
I was investigating some suspects,                                                 
but it turned out that I found an old                                                 
friend!

During this interval ...

Dear Playmo Ladies & Gentlemen,

This episode is obviously "to be continued". It's shot already (about three weeks ago ...), but, once it takes a while so as to work the text positions, I won't be able to make the sequence this weekend, I'm afraid ...

There's a comments thread for this topic. Well, it didn't come up as such, but I realize that it may work as such, so, if any of you wishes to say something, but don't want to interrupt the suspense, make your comments at "An Index to Elmo & Fletcher" (http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=2410.0).

See you next time!
 :wave:

Yours,

Gus

FLETCHER'S NEW PLACE
Part V

or Part IV, b

Fletcher saw himself in a difficult situation, as he went his way to the Degendorf region, for Sir Elmo was returning from that exact village. Amid such intrigue, the Archer's friends saw themselves in a pretty awkward situation as well ...

                                                  This is at least ridiculous ... Thinks madam hollower

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02d_fletcher_s_moving_part_v/elmo_et_fletcher014.jpg)



                              Fletcher! Where do you think you are?
                              What d'you think you're doing??!
                              What's going on??!


Sheeew!!! I'm not here!!!                                                 

(http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll61/Olivieri76/playmostories/3_elmo_s_chronicles/02d_fletcher_s_moving_part_v/elmo_et_fletcher015.jpg)



Don't be silly!!! Of course you ARE here!
Hiding won't save you for ever! What's going on??


Some guys wished to involve me in a plot to kill that knight!                                                                     
This is one of the reasons why I'm leaving Tapia ...                                                                     
maybe the best of'em ...                                                                     


          Wögh!!! What are you talking about??!
          Let me down! ...

Did I hear it right??                                                                                         
Are you gon'na kill that gentleman??!                                                                                         


SHEEEEEW!!!                                                 
'Course not ... Didn't you hear??!                                                 
This is the reason I'm running away!!

Fletcher! ... Then you must TELL HIM,                                                                                         
tell him everything about it! Everything you know!                                                                                         


No way! Are you crazy??!                                                 

Do you want him to die?                                                                                         
Who is he again??!                                                                                         


I only want NOT to make any part of this nonsense!

Well COME ON, then, lets put an end on it!                                                                                                             

No! -- Wait, Num' ... Please! ...                                                                               
Hey, let go! Arrr!!                                                                               


                              ... And then I asked for a lift, and he was so kind,
                              but I wandered whether he was going to Degendorf,
                              and he said he was going to Querquetulon, and I said,
                              of course,
                              that "Oh, mister, Querquetulon?? They say it isn't good
                              business to live in Querquetulon ...", because this is what
                              people have been saying about that wood ... And then I ...


                                                                                                                        Uh-hum!?
                                                                                                                        Really? Why so? ...

Walk, come on!!!                                                                               

Nomy, please! ... You don't know what you're doing!!!                                                 
Let go of me! ...                                                 


Awgh, you talk like my little ones!                                                                               
When they don't wan'na eat the beans!

                                                                                                              place's cursed 'n haunted, mylord!!
