Fine by me!
Regarding the visit to Mellonin's parents, they will have rushed out to a Gondorian "pawnshop" and sold one of their last remaining heirlooms so that Mellonin & co will have some travel money. It's a modest sum but it should help the travellers buy some food when they run out. She can feel suitably guilty.
Anyone who wants to can bring us through the stables and down to the seventh circle to Mellonin's parents' room. I'll add the heirloom sale at that point. (Feel free to just save me a spot, and it can get pasted in.) And then it's off to pick up Gwillion, and then the open road!
I will post an outline one of these days about the overall chase. I was debating pursuing the Anduin, but with Nimrodel's love of water it is a logical place for Amroth to search. So down the Anduin it is.
For now, "We ride North!" (Okay, 'we're' walking, 'they're' riding, but who can resist a good Eomer movie quote??)
I love this team. You guys are the best.
