"Wait," said Elentari. "What of the childrens' fates? Our road is dangerour, far too dangerous for such little ones. We saved them for their mothers. The women who asked me was distraught and I'm sure she wants to see her child. I'm sure you want to see your parents don't you?"
The children looked up at her with longing eyes. They wanted to see open land so much, see adventure. But as they thought of their mothers they nodded.
"Good," said Lorin, "but who shall take them? Which of us will leave the quest?"
All of the group were silent. They had all decided to go together, none would break their promise.
"I will go." said a quiet voice. "I will take the children. I know the way and I'm sure I should return."
"But Min..." said Lorin.
"I wont here it. They need someone to take them. I would be no help to you on your quest."
