The Road to Erebor RPG

[Arien]

Belegond still stood next to Kili, he couldn’t believe it was taking this long, and he certainly didn’t like this Kaldon character. Kili was getting very irritable, an kept muttering every time someone spoke up. It seemed likely now that they were going over Caradhras, and like Kili, Belegond saw no need to debate this topic further, but they still needed the consent of Eruantalon and Yanithe who had not spoken up yet. It seemed to Belegond that before they had even set off the company was falling apart. The rest of the dwarves were arguing with the elves and the men were just adding to their fury.

Belegond watched Kili take another sip of his ale from the leather canteen at his side, just before he took another one Belegond kicked him and looked at him sternly in the eyes. Kili put the canteen down and faced the rest of the group. There was now a silence, very awkward. Then Astarielle spoke up “
"But it is yet a long way from here to the foot of Caradhras, we must waste no time. We must get some horses. You must ride or it will be to late!"

She was right, but Belegond saw no need to argue, for one he didn’t want to start an argument and he also knew how dwarves felt about horses. Kili didn’t mind them but some others might and well he had to admit dwarves were very stubborn.
