Naiore has taken up residence in Bree hill, in the north west part. Her aim will be to depart through the North Gate, which has no Gatekeeper's residence nearby.

I figure that Kaldir would find her tracks and be able to trace them, but it would not be easy. Naiore had time to chose her trail carefully, so trail will be scant. Rocky ground and the like, heavy traffic and so forth.

I don't know how close the Rangers are to Avanill, Barrold and Vanwe... I figured on Dulrain finding Maethor, whom Vanwe fears is dead presently.

Barrold and Avanill need enough time to kill Tallas and effect their theft and flee to rejoin with Naiore.

Then, the nefarious party will be on their way, duly provisioned and keen to leave Bree behind for the time being.

Once on their way, I plan for Naiore to change her intentions from the Shire to strike at Imladris. She'll do this on the grounds of Vanwe's insurrection and the news learnt from Tallas of Menecin's survival. Naiore will think her earlier suspicions of Vanwe are verified and resolve to put an end to Menecin and her daughter's threat once and for all.

I figured they would be back on the road and making for Imladris now, by nightfall of the present day.

Such are my thoughts, hairbrained as they may be. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
