"Lady, it is certain we will learn nothing more of them now, it has become far too dark to continue the search. Let us go and find the others, for dawn will surely put all of us in a better frame of mind," he winked at her, "Especially as I am nearly dead on my feet. Come, let me help you up on my horse and I will see you back safely." She looked at him, one eyebrow raised. "I can take care of myself, Herebrand. In case you hadn't noticed." He smiled in return. "Hmmm, I see by the scars that you will bear that you had some difficulty in doing so."

She slapped him on the shoulder, none too lightly, yet she realized he was teasing her. She knew that she had had a close call, but her pride wouldn't allow her any show of weakness. She respected the Rohirrim and she wanted respect in return. "I appreciate the offer Herebrand, but I'll have to decline. I'm as capable of walking back to the house as you are." He gazed down at her, then shrugged. "As you wish." he said as he re-mounted. He extended his hand down to her. "You sure? Last chance!" She glared at his proffered hand, then sighed as he swung her carefully up behind him, then they set off to re-join the others.
