"Are you sure you told them when? Did you tell them where?" Jemel questioned Harlon. They waited with Feadhros and Galadriel for anyone to show up about the search party.

"Honestly! I had quite a crowd! Anyone not there would certainly have heard from their friends," Harlon was sure that someone would show. The sun sprayed bright and endless colors around outside as it set.

"What if no one comes?" Feadhros asked, as if coming out of a trance.

"Stop thinking the worst. Someone will show. I know it," Harlon assured them.

He was right. A few minutes after the stars began appearing in the sky, people began to enter the Lady's hall. To Jemel's dissapointment, no more than ten people walked in.

"Well, I told you so," Harlon shot a mock smile Jemel's way.

"Okay, fine. You were right. Happy?" Jemel looked at the volunteers. Did any of them even know Nuhrive? Were they looking for adventure? Did they fear blame? Did they merely wish to join the cause? An awkward silence filled the room. Jemel looked around, waiting for someone to break the silence.
