Jaden saw Halia exiting the building and came over to ask if they were finaly going to get moving.

"Have they reached a decision?"

"I think so;" Halia replies to Jax and walks over to Elaria. Making sure she has food and water she takes her sleeping equipment down off of Elaria and rolls it out on the ground.

Jaden walks back to Syndar and is glad that they are ready to be getting somewhere.

He lays down to get some rest before they leve.

Squirrel stood up and walked out of the Great Hall, he reached his friends room and knocked.
Isteleth who was inside opened the door, she was halfway through brushing her hair when she answered the door.
She smiled at him and beckoned him in.
"Well?" She asked, he surveyed her for a moment.
"Well Lithoniel says you may leave to go to Gondor" he replied, Isteleth nodded placing her brush on the dressing table, she then sat down on the edge of the bed, and made a motion for him to sit down, he did so.
"So Squirrel my old friend, we havn't had much time to catch up on things....how's life treating you?" she asked him....he shrugged.
"ok i guess, it's boring around here without you or Eruonen, i gess i've just had to amuse myself!" he pouted slightly, and Isteleth burst out laughing.
"That look doesn't work any more Squirrel, and on another note have you seen Eruonen much?" she asked, blushing slightly.
Squirrel looked at his friend trying hard not to laugh.
"Oh little bird song, you like him don't you" he teased, Isteleth lay back on her bed and closed her eyes.
"Mayby i do" she replied yawning slightly, Squirrel rolled his eyes.
"Oh Isty your so un-predictable" he told her smiling.
"I know" she replied
"Well don't forget the little people that made you that way" he continued, he sat waiting for her reply and when he looked over at her, she was sleeping, he smiled and stood up, covering her with a blanket, he then turned and left the room, closing the door as quietly as he could.

Darrell did not retire straight after the meal. He wandered slowly around the ancient building steeped in so much history.he was amazed at the beauty of the place as he meandered through the gardens. He thought back over the discussion in the hall, he was glad the Lady Lithoniel was after a quick decision, the debate could have gone on for hours and ended with bad feeling. Decisions would be hard to come by with so many strong willed peole holding council together.
But they would, whatever happened, be riding off come dawn and that troubled him. He agreed there was great need for haste but he hadn't intended to lose face in front of anyone before the fighting started. Of course he had no horse, but that was no excuse, the Lady would no doubt have him supplied with one.

He turned and headed for his room wondering what the others would think when they found out he could not ride.

((dunno what to put....shall we move to the next morning))

(((Yes lets)))

Lithoniel rose early the next morning, the sun had barely given light to the sky. She dressed quickly, strapped on her sword and grabbed her bow and plenty of arrows. She ran through the courtyard to the stables where she put some of her things in her saddle bags. Then she hurried to the kitchen where they had prepared bags of unspoilable food for the journey. That she gave to a young elf named Durion. He took the food and put it into packs that was put on the pack horses that would go with them. Then Lithoniel saddled her horse, Glandor and made everything ready. She was walking back through the courtyard when she was met by Darrel "Goodmorning sir!" she greeted him "I saw that you had no horse so I will lend you one." She led him to the stables "Here, this is Thalion" she said bringing to him a beautiful chestnut stallion. "He will serve you well... just as he served my father." She handed the reins of Thalion's halter to Darrel then hearing the horn she had instructed Raina to sound at first light she said "That is the signal for us all to meet in the courtyard. You may stay here and get to know your steed for a moment, but make haste." and with that she left him.

Isteleth woke, the skies still dark, yet no visible appearance of a sun nor a moon.
She slipped the blanket that covered her, and slid out of her bed, she washed quickly, then dressed in her riding clothes, she brushed her hair and then pulled it back into 3 braides, 2 at the side and one down the middle of her head, all three finally joining into one big braid.

She picked up her sword, and then picked up her bow and quiver, she then opened the door and stepped out, walking into Squirell.
"Oh sorry!" she said stepping away, he looked at her and shrugged.
"Nah it's ok" he replied holding out his arm for her to take, she did so and they walked down into the courtyard, and into the stables.
"So your deffinatly going then?" he asked, as she went over to saddle up her mare Sirith, she nodded as she placed her quiver and bow on the saddle.
"Yes it would seem so, i'm riding to Gondor as soon as we reach Lothlorien, and you?" she asked him, turning away from Sirith and to face him, her hands placed ligtly on her hips.

"I'll probally stay here and wait untill my aid is called, other than that i will help to protect my home city!" he replied smiling slightly, she nodded and then hugged him.
"You have been my best friend through thick and thin, and i thank you for that!" she said to him in elvish, he smiled
"Well then i dunno who your talking about cause it aint me" he replied, she grinned and hugged him again before pulling away and mouting her mare, the horn sounding from within the city, calling them to the courtyard.
Squirrel slipped his hand onto Sirith's reins and led Isteleth and the mare into the courtyard, where her cousin and Darrel waiting.
"Suilaid" Isteleth said to them smiling.

Luinnar is in the courtyard, surrounded by about three tough-looking men and a few horses, maybe five at the most. She watches everyone trickle out of the building. "Lady Lithoniel, I'd like you to meet my First Mates...Rannon, Drin, Kirt Daan, an' Gothar...." All the men nod or bow and whatnot.

"You are all welcome" Lithoniel said nodding to the men that were with Luinnar "Thank you for coming. Now, Are we all gathered?" She waits for those who are straggling behind.
