Firefoot, you'll want to change the name in your last post from Haleth to Hama. Haleth is dead, killed by Sorn; Hama is alive and well.
But we don't know about Scyld. Is he dead or alive? Wounded still or back to heatlh? On his way to Edoras or still in hiding? (hint hint)
I can just about imagine Javan suddenly begging Leof to let him free so the three boys can play tag or something less dangerous to Lys' fragile health.
It has always struck me that ages 10 to 12 are heaven: not yet struck with the throes of pubescence, long enough legs and arms to move fast and dexterously, smart enough to get into all kinds of trouble and then back out of it again.
Play it up, my friends!
