Oirhandir answered: "Well then, I guess we'll see who else wants to go. I had originally wanted just one or two companions, but now I think maybe three or four, or even five would be better. The last time I ventured that way, it was with a band of six guarding a caravan. We only brought five back, but that was because one ran off with his new love." The elf chuckled. "I, and my favored one, are more patient. As much as I long to see her again, I can stand to be apart for the few weeks it took for me to complete my obligation to the caravan master."
