These are the elite of my group. *A guy runs up to them*
Sun Quan:I heard you were here so I came to find you.
Nice job but your late lets go.
Yes sir.
*They follow Rhia*

*As soon as they reach the cover of the underwood, she stops, whispering* I doubt there is one large group of orcs out there. We could be faster if we split up in two or three groups.

*Imrel nods. She had come along, as had Matt, Jake, Brem, a fair haired boy around Brem's age, and an older girl who was no doubt his sister. Replies, also in hushed tones.* I think there could be around ten, maybe less, in each group... Enough to put up a fight, but not be detected easily. *Glances at the two younger boys anxiously.* I'd like to have Brem and Torry with me.

*Looks at the six men that came with her.* We're 24 so that's 8 for each group, including ourselves.

Right then. Let's choose groups quickly. *The whole lot of them are arranged in three groups in a matter of minutes, Rhia, Liu and Im heading each. Imrel glances at the other seven in her group.* We'll take the east. *Gestures the direction.* All right you you?

Ok, I'll go straight ahead and Liu and his men can go west. We'll meet again at the other side of the forest. Good luck! *Waves her men towards her. Gives quick instructions on what hand signs to use and leads them into the underwood head.*

*Waves Rhia and her group off, then moves off eastwards into the brush, motioning her group to follow. They gather briefly in a small clearing before progressing.* How about we get to know eachother. I'm Imrel, this is Brem, Torry, Jayan, Matt and Jake. *Points to each group member as she names them, then glances at the other two, one a Man around Matt's age, and the other a Hobbit in his early thirties.*
*The younger man speaks up. He has a gruff voice that nonetheless has a pleasant, harmonious sound.* I'm Semerach, and this here is Todd, my adoptive brother.
*Nods and bends foward a little to speak to them all quietly.* All right. Before we go on, a couple of things to bear in mind. Keep your voices down *Her eyes dart to Jayan*, stick with the group... And watch out for eachother. *Can sense Brem at her side, idgetting a little.* If you do become separated, and you're on your own, just head straight to the other side of the woods and wait there, out of harm's way. Don't hang around where the Orcs can spring up on you; you're no good to us captured.
*Casts her gaze over all persent, checking they understand. At a silent chorus of nodding, she does so to and straightens up.* Let's go then. *They head off swiftly through the trees, keeping their footsteps to a minimal rustling through the undergrowth.*

*Lets her men form a triangle behind her as they slowly proceed into the forest, carefully not to make any noise*

Eowyn finishes mending Aragorn's wounds with the aid of a man called Eklok who was Bree's healer. Aragorn was now asleep, regaining his strenght. Meanwhile, Eklok and Eowyn were talking in whispers.
"I doubt he could endure much," Eklok said gravely, his voice barely audible; yet filled with fear.
"Alas! I can not doubt your words. Rangers have been known to endure much, though he shouldn't be left alone. Not like this!" Eowyn replied. "If only there was a way to end this mess..."

*Brem sighs tiredly.* My feet hur-
*Whips around and fastens a hand over his mouth, shaking her head feverishy.*
*Steps up from behind and mutters almost inaudibly in his sister's ear.* Don't be too hard on him, Jay...
*All movement between the three of them is suddenly cut short as Semerach waves his arm furiously around at them. It is quite apparent he has seen something.*
*Matt takes charge of the situation fairly quickly. He takes Brem by the shoulder and guides him over to Imrel, Todd and Jake, unlatching him from Jayan's grip. The girl and her brother follow.*
*Nods thankfully to Matt and edges very slightly ahead of the group, peering hungrily into the surrounding trees. There are undoubtedly Orcs up ahead. Controlling a rather sick sense of fear that is threatening to overtake her, she leans farther forward, all too conscious of her loud breathing.
*One Orc shifts suddenly, and a small figure topples down. Imrel only has to take one look at the mop of fiery hair to know who it is. She starts forward, but trips on a root, and falls over herself. She can feel the eyes of her horrified comrads on her, and she is sure that Orc eyes are among them. The silence that ensues presses on her eardrums as the small group wait for the Orcs to come or to ignore.*

*Spins around as a twig cracks. Looks into the blushing face of a young man* Shhht! Be careful, all of you! *They walk on in silence. Decides that they need a better overview and climbs a tree. Looks over the forest, trying to sopt anything that might give them a hint.* |

*The forest is silent, too silent by far. Every creature seems to have hidden somewhere. Hears only two or three ravens croaking. Tries hard to spot them in the darkness. Sees a few shadows circling over a spot not too far away. Climbs down again.* Ok, this way. Let's follow the scavengers.....*
