Outracing the Flames Discussion Thread

I have a question. How long is it until the Wulfhamers arrive at Hengistham? A fortnight after our company gets there? Longer? Less time?

If they are just refugees trying to find a shelter somewhere, they probably won't be driving to Hengistham just like that? How could they just hunch it like that if it was "a gift" of generosity by a good-hearted lord in Edoras? They (and Bregowarians too) would probably try first Croacht. But that might be overpopulated if all the villages from the east are on the move... The Wolfhamers might have been there early enough to fit in, but at least the Bregowarians would have had so long a journey, that it should be quite full by the time they reached it? That's why I thought it important to mention the searching for the villages (Wulfham & Bregoware) by our characters after having the promise that they could all come to Hengisthan.

But someone more at home with the map could come up with a calculation where they could be and where Hengistham is in the first place. That would help a lot.

My post will probably have a short description of a Bregoware group (not including Meghan based on Undómë's will) going to search all the refugees around the eastern Rohan for the Bregowarians, finding them and settling for a while in Hengistham. I'm still waiting for Farael for a comfirmation about this.

But have you any ideas how the Bregowarians (or Wulfhamers) would settle after the initial run-away? The war of the rings is coming, but would they know it? Would they try to re-settle their homelands or not in the beginning? And if not, where would they be re-settled?
