*giggles helplessly at self* I should not. I should not be this weak, but there is a perfect and irresitable Princess Bride homage setup at the end of this chapter. I *should not* end this chapter with, “We’ve a wedding to plan, a throne to topple, and Scotland to frame for it.” but i’m GOING TO My editor will probably make me take it out.

Apparently the entire point of this posting is for the wordcount, since I can’t think of anything else to say. miles to Isengard: 297.5 ytd wordcount: 325,100
