Three days had passed in quiet routine on the Star. The Hobbrim had drilled with Pio until they felt confident concerning their role in the rescue.

It was now 19 Cermië, and the new day was just dawning. In two days the Teleri would arrive, and the rescue would begin the following night. A controlled sort of tension infused the spirit of the ship and crew as the day drew near.

Mithadan had explained to the crew that he and Pio would be taking Rose and Cami to the caverns that evening. The two Hobbits would stay with the Hobbits there until the ships came for them. Pio and he would return directly to the Star after a brief meeting with the Hobbits to answer questions and review the rescue plan.

There was some hesitation from Veritas, Khelek, and Angara that both of them would be gone from the ship at the same time. But Mithadan reassured them that they would be in no danger, and would return safely to the ship.

Ancalimon only shook his head, saying nothing.
