Urken left Fuinur beside the gangplank and boarded the first ship. Once Urken was out of ear shot, Fuinur motioned for Herumir to join him. Herumir walked up to Fuinur while tying a bandage to the wound on his arm. Fuinur glanced at the wound and asked, “ Is that serious?”

No just a scratch, hardly worthy of a bandage.” Fuinur nodded “and what do you make of that little accident?

“Was no accident, it was all planned, so that Urken could get his hands on that ship” replied Herumir.

Fuinur looked around to make certain that no one was listening. “That bear needs watching, I don’t trust him. What are his motives for helping us? And why did he take control of every ship in the port? What need did a Warrior Priest of the Guild of the Black Numenoreans have for ships?

Herumir looked thoughtful and then leaned closer to Fuinur and said
“I suggest that until this enigma is revealed we act as if we trust him. The voyage to Anduin is a long one. Who knows what accidents can happen on such a long voyage?

Fuinur laughed “Thanks, that helps, but I want him on the other ship and with him I will send Seth. That way if anything funny happens we will know about it.

Once both ships had been prepared to Fuinurs satisfaction, the tide was turning. It was time to leave.

The two ships made their way out of the Harbour. The first went with Urken, his men and Seth who had stowed away to spy on Urken's activities. On the second ship went Fuinur, Herumir and the remaining men who had survived the battle.

The sun had risen by the time the two ships had cleared the harbour. Once out into open water, the ships changed course and made their way north towards the Anduin.
