How about-- at that point-- Bergil, sensing some sort of doom on his own part, gallops off to find his commander, and gets permission to join the quest, and comes galloping back? Trying to think like a soldier here-- wouldn't want him accused of desertion, you know.

I'm a fan of this.
Only issue, and this might be sidestepped by the issue of the Elves' presence: she's a little girl, by herself, in the company of a bunch of guys.
If they wouldn't let grown women travel with them, surely they'd have trouble with the concept of a lone little girl?
*pondering*
What if...
How were the guys going to find out about the women leaving again? Gwyllion? Might Gwyll speak through Indil, and then... something?
Once the women are involved again, it shouldn't be much of a problem, but if everyone is that paranoid about the propriety of unchaperoned and travelling women...
