Goblins and wargs and eagles, oh my! There's not much respite from escaping one danger before the next one comes.

I posted a number of questions and observations on the previous discussion thread, so I will merely invite you all to share your thoughts and opinions here. What parts of the chapter impress or amuse you? How does the danger affect our heroes, and is their unusual rescue a moment of eucatastrophe?
