(ooc- hehe! No we need more drama then that. I'll try and think of something)
*Unfolds map and looks at it a little confused*
I'm not sure which why we're headed.
Are we headed towards the Gap of Rohan or are we going to go in the direction of the White mountains?
Which is the quickest way to Gondor?

*glances over, still soothing her horse, stroking him lightly on the muzzle.* i'm not sure... i'd opt for the gap of rohan, though, crossing mountains wouldn't be favorable to the horses. *rethinks.* hang on, would we be going over the mountains or stopping short of them?

*consults the map again*
The quickest route would be directly over the mountains, but we could go round them but that would involve crossing...hang on....I can't make it out....Leftnea? river. I don't know how deep that is.

*Looks over Floryian's shoulder.* If I remember the messenger correctly, the attacks are spreading almost all over Gondor. So I think we should head directly south towards Ered Nimrais and try to enter Gondor from the western part.. The White Mountains aren't as high as Caradhras and there are many passes, so our horses should manage to cross them. If we go all the way through Rohan, we are always in danger to run into orcs marching between Mordor and Isengart. And since we don't know how many of them are in Gondor and where they are, we might end up right in the middle of enemies. What do you think?

*sighs.* the white mountains, then. if we can be sure of a safe crossing point at the river.

Can't be much more worse than the Isen. There are some fords and it's not on a straight orc route.

*nods.* well, i guess we're bound for the mountains, then, unless anyone has any objections. *ruffles her horse's mane.*
(i can't think of anything "dramatic" to get me out of this, so unless the ship has sailed on my falling down a hole suggestion, maybe i could just tag along silently, as flory put it, or you guys could make something happen while i'm not there. i'm not fussed, but i have to go soon.)

bic: *get's her rope back* Let's go. I'd like to put as many miles between us and Isengart as fast as possible.

The group ride on towards Gondor. Ahead of them the White Mountains, towering over the surrounding landscape, majestic and beautiful. By mid-morning they have reached the river Adorn, a tributery off Isen that runs under the White Mountains.
*stops on the bank and turns to the others*
I believe the river is narrow enough to jump, shall I try first?
*without waiting for an answer, turns Chanty round and takes a run up. Leaps the river with ease.*
Woo! That was fun!

I know that but I used to make horses jump over things as a kid, but now I dunno *Teleports himself back to the other side of the river, galops on Black Pegasus away from the river then he galops back with enormoues speed, almost unable to c him, he jumps over the river* There.
