In writers-time, Yes; today "as the gamers write", both parties are now going northward--because Ędegard's party is almost a game-week behind. How far out from Edoras is Ędegard, as of this writing? Three days? I'm calling it Dec 10 or 11, but I should go back thru and verify.
In four or five more days Ędegard-game-time, they will reach Lorien and meet up with Erebemlin who will steer them along the Anduin-- southwards. At *that* time (Dec 16 or 17) Ravion's troop is just starting out.
I'll edit below to clarify.
In the meantime, what to do? I suggest the Rohan writing team proceed with lengthened stride (but let's not be too hasty, hoom hom-- *enjoy* the character development while eating up the miles and the days.) Meanwhile, Ravion's writing team can proceed at a liesurely pace (writing-wise. The characters are still pressing to make up for lost time.)
Sound reasonable?
