littlemanpoet- I meant that as the approximate path for the rescue party, as I thought that they would favor haste over secrecy if need be. I didn't put Kathaani and Abarpanaru's approximate path on the map, since all the traveling that would be done on it had been done already. However, I'm willing to adjust the path if the general feeling among the rescuers is that secrecy is more or equally as important as haste. The X marking Abar's capture I wasn't sure where to place, it was intended to be approximate as well. In the first post we mentioned it as near where Forrostar and Orrostar came together, we can easily imagine it closer to the coast if need be.

Thanks for your helpful corrections as well. I'm inclined to agree with all of them.

TB12- are you willing to be the one who meets Regin's character on the coastline? If not, as I know you were thinking about riding straight out toward Kathaani, perhaps

samsmyhero's character would be an appropriate one to send? A trusted member of the household would be likely to show up there.
