On the text - I've taken a fairly not-obscure-at-all bit of the
Silmarillion, partly because I want to use ornate Nrit verb tenses that it
would allow me to do. It's prose, but can be broken up into bits of
prose-poem for convenience; in the character of the text as a whole, it's
very rhythmic and deliberate and can be easily divided.
For those who want to avoid Tolkien, I can only suggest that you be late in
the translation, and hope that it's far enough changed that your translation
won't be colored. I suppose I'll have to just pretend that I don't know the
English, being the endpoints of the relay and all that.
How does one go about ordering the players, precisely? Do we simply place
people at random, or what?
