Halia glanced quickly into the trees as she hears a sharp snap from a branch. Elaria looks up and snorts as well and Halia stands up only to see a deer run out, spooked by all the people riding up and standing around. Halia sighed and sat back down.

Jaden waited as he had crossed the bridge. The others slowly made there way in.

Halia stands up and walks towards the sounds and seeing its just another deer she walks into the trees for a ways to explore. Halia watched carefully to make sure they don't leave without her. Following a little stream that comes back out by the others she watches the fish swim around and decides to catch a few and cook them.

As he waits Jaden lays down for a short nap.

To his amazement when he wakes Halia's drink had worked. He no longer was huanted by dreams of the wars.

Luinnar sighs. "This is taking way too long...." With a groan, she curls up in her cloak and falls into a half-sleep.

(ahh! sry, been kinda busy lately. here)

Lithoniel turned to her cousin before crossing the bridge and said "Yes and go quickly. Be safe dear cousin! Bado go Eru!" and with that she blew a kiss to Isteleth and proceded to cross the bridge. Arthion stayed at her side and the all made it across the bridge quickly. He whispered to Lithoniel
"We should ride on for a bit then make camp farther inland."
"I agree, the further we can get in one day the better." she laughed as she added "I think everyone is rested with all of this waiting." then louder she said
"We will ride to the Northwest for a few more hours. Then take our rest further inland. Let's go!" with that she mounted Glandor and kicked him into a fast trot.

Isteleth smiled at her cousin
"Navaer cousin!" she replied, she turned her mare, winked at Darell, then kicked Sirith forward into a full on gallop from the group.

Darrell rode up to the front of the column, and halted beside Lithoniel.
"My lady, this is taking too long. If we keep stopping like this we will be attacked before we even get close to Angmar. We must hurry up. they will no douby attack us beore we get there, but the faster we move the fewer the orcs gathered to waylay us. We must get going" His voice quietened to a low murmur " and I fear we already have something following us. I have not seen what it is, I have not even heard much but I am certain there is something there".

As the group continued on across the bridge Jaden listend to Lady Lithoniel's words. He was glad to be on the move again.

He jumped abord Syndar and once again began riding off to the Northwest with the rest of the group.

As Jaden rode onward he noticed Darrell ride up beside Lady Lithoniel. He rode over within hearing range and overherd Darrell's remark.

He too had noticed that it seemed as though something had been following them.

Luinnar stands as soon as she senses them approaching, and gets on her horse, calling her men to get the horses that were waiting for them. They mount up and are ready to ride out as the column approaches. Luinnar hears what Darrell says as he and Lithoniel approach. She rides over to them and nods. "I agree with Darrelll.... We need a forced ride to the Shire, then on to Angmar.... We must get there before word of us gets there, and that will be very hard indeed...." Her piercing blue eyes flash eerily at the challenge.

Jaden listened as Luinnar entered the conversation.

He agreed with them, but was reluctent to give his opinion.

((i'm just gonna move character on a few days))

Isteleth had rode through many places and across mny plains, she had ridden across harsh terrain and dark dank forests before she finally reached Pelenor fields.

She had slowed Sirith to a halt and stood stationed on the crest of a hill, she looked out across her home of Minas Tirith, her eyes where then directed to the recently built city of Osgilith, she smiled slightly it seemed peacful here, though her gaze was then re-directed towards the Land of Mordor, she noticed somthing a thick curl of smoke rising, and every now and then a flash of lighting and a rumble of thunder, she wasted no time in waiting any longer and galloped across the plains to Minis Tirith.

-------------

Her footfalls echooed through the empty halls, no-one was around, it was eiree and she didn't like it.
She reached the throne room and entered, she then found her mother pacing back and forth.
"Naneth?!" Isteleth said standing looking at her mother, Arwen looked up at her daughter, she looked worn, more so since mother and daughter had parted a few months back, Arwen drew Isteleth in her arms.
"Isty" Arwen whispered kissing her daughter on the top of her head
"Naneth where's Ada?" Isteleth insited

Jaden walked along with the others, waiting for the next orders.

"Can't we just get to the fighting. Then I will know what to do." Jaden said softly to himself and to Azher who rode behind hi on Syndar.

"I thank you for your advice.. I to am getting weary of this slow pace.. " Lithoniel said in a low voice so that no others would overhear then she added softly "I am afraid I am not cut out for strategy... our entire mission depends upon speed. We must reach Angmar within the span of a few days... But I am afraid that the horses and the riders will not be able to keep pace." she sighed as she really did not know what to do. Then Lithoniel turned to Arthion and said "What do you think, Cousin?"
"I think.. that you should make the decision, you can have all the advice you want, but it is up to you to decide what to do. We will all follow you... no matter what." he paused then teasingly said "Well... I will at least."
"You're not helping." she said in mock anger at him but she realized that the decision was hers to make, as they cantered along she fell silent in thought.
After some time had passed she pulled to a halt and waited for everyone to gather around before saying "Our mission depends on speed. From now on we will go at a very fast pace, with as few rests as is reasonable. If anyone has a problem with that let him, or her, speak now! If not, lets ride! Norolim!" She kicked Glandor into a rapid gallop, they were nearly flying over the ground, she felt that she had made the right decision.
