She began to rise but pain lanced across her ribs and she winced, leaning against the table for a moment. Enlishia steered her towards a seat at the high table just as Erlmoor and Litiraan came in from through the double doors to the north. The men and the woman began bringing out platters of breakfast fare and soon all were eating heartily.“All was quiet,” rumbled Erlmoor in between mouthfuls.“Likewise here,” said Lavren.“Then which way do we cross the chasm?” said Telkya. “They will likely have seen the end of yesterday’s battle from the far side so the bridge from the northern hold would give us a better chance of surprising our enemies.”“Agreed,” said Lavren. “We could be picked off while still on the bridge if we venture forth from this hold.”“The bridge there is narrow, we must remember,” said Litiraan. “I watched it for some of the last night and it would not be easy to evade attackers once we were crossing.”“Fear not brother,” said Telkya. “Like as not our enemies will be too busy watching the southern bridge to pay any mind to the northern one.” Dulvarna and Erlmoor nodded then and it was decided.</blockquote>
