littlemanpoet (10/25/2004 6:00:13 AM): Hi Helen, just a quicky before work. I can't log onto barrowdowns from here, but if you want to post this up for me at discussions: the women are close, since the swamp path twists and turns. So the merlocks are within bowshot, but there are a lot of them. I'm figuring about 40. Here's the deal: Tharonwe had promised them that they would receive one of the maidens for food. But now he has promised all four in trade for Raefindan. The merlocks figure this out, and are about to revolt, but Tharonwe tells them that he will not stand in the way of their feasting. So they rush madly after the women. Lucky for Bellyn and company, the path is narrow and she has only had to fight off one or two at a time; the swamp muck slows merlocks down as much as it would a duck (or whatever).
