We are now to the day when Daisy leaves for the caverns. (They will leave in the late evening, so that it will be night by the time they are going up the river.
9 days ago, story time, the Star arrived in the waters off Númenor.
10 days ago, story time, the Númenorean ships launched their voyage to Tol Eressëa.
in 12 days, story time, the Teleri will arrive.
Daisy's adventure must be more or less completed in this 12 day time period (I am assuming we will rescue her when we pick up the hobbits?!) - the Star and the Teleri can't afford to hang about for Gorthaur to find them. The Star needs to pull out to sea, farther south, in anticipation of their arrival & in order to keep them somewhat hidden. We should launch the foray upriver the very late evening of the day after they arrive. It will give us time to inform them fully of our plans and what they will need to do.
