Later that night Cenwynne walked back to Caithrin to discuss with her about a possible trip to find Komatsu. As he entered her home he finds Caithrin standing by the table in the main room, looking down at the table where maps and papers lies scattered as Cenwynne walks in. "Hello Cen.." she says to him as she glances up from the papers and maps. Cenwynne gives her a curious look "Maps Cait..are you going somewhere?" he asks as he walks to the table. Caithrin looks up on him holding a map over Gondor. "Yes, I had a talk to Zandy after you left." Cenwynne nods slowly "Tell me some more about it..Are you going out to search for her husband as well?" as he then looks at the map. "Yes, I will make a try at least. Are you thinking of going as well?" Caithrin asks him once he comes to the table. "I am yes...I had a talk with Zandrianna about it adn I will do this for her..she needs to get an answer if he is alive or not, so she can move on with her life" Cenwynne replies to her, looking at the different maps.
"That´s what I told her as well." Caithrin says to him while she peers at the maps "But where shall be begin?" she asks him. "And as you know I have become fond of her and she is fond of me. Hmmm..." Cenwynne stops for a moment as he glances down on the maps "From what I heard Qswas telling her is that he has been sighted in Gondor but where in Gondor or if he is still there or if he have moved out I do not know. "'So maybe start in Gondor or?" Caithrin says to him in a serious tone. "Yes..but the road there is long..Long and dangerous Caithrin..So we need to be stealthy and quick as we travel" Cenwynne syas and for the first time gives away his serious tone in his voice. "I know that. But I need to do this anyway." Caithrin replies to him. Cenwynne brings his had to his chin and scrathes it slightly and nods as she speaks and then says "Yes..And I do think that we two would be the best option as too many will get noisy and that wont be good since the lands of Enedwaith and Dunland has ears..I am thinking of going.. hmm" Cenwynne glides off into thoughts as he looks at the maps again. Caithrin leans forward on the table, resting herself on her forearms looking at all the maps. "Mind if I take my pipe and puff away while Im thinking Cait?" Cenwynne says looking up from the maps, his hand resting on his pipe. "Sure, go ahead." she replies to him and watches him taking his pipe, stuffing it with some pipeweed and lights it as he then sinks into deep thoughts. "I will check with Milcroft as well. He maybe have some ideás. I have not spoken to him about this yet." caithrin says as the two looks on the maps. Having his pipe in the right corner of his mouth Cenwynne looks over the maps as he sometimes lets a small hmming noise escape "Hmm..Oh yes..yes good idea and you need to tell him if you are coming along as well so he wont think you have left him" he says as he looks on the maps, using his right index finger as he traces a route on the map. Caithrin looks around her, a bit worried before she grabs her glas of water and drinks it all.
"I will make sure he know why I need to go." she says after finishing her glass of water."Hmm.." Cenwynne looks up from the maps and looks at Caithrin "Yes..you tell him..ask him if he knows some good place that we can stop by on the journey.." Caithrin nod´s and look down as she puts her glas away and hold her hand to her mouth to hide a blurp. "I...I will" Cenwynne nods and stiffels his pipe, storing it away as he then brings out a map over the Trollshaws "We need to take this route from here" as he points on the map for Caithrin to see "Into Eregion" as he takes out the map over the same area "..and further into" as he then pulls out a map over Enedwaith "Enedwaith...then into Dunland..through the gap of Rohan.." Caithrin takes her eye´s from the maps and look up on Cen for a moment. "I have never been to this places, but I will follow your orders as we go on" "Good Caith..good..we will go through the Gravenwood here" he points to the map "Then through the gap of Rohan then cross the Isen..then we are in my homeland Caith..Rohan..from there make our way towards Edoras..from there then towards the western part and Dunharrow..I think we need to go through the pass none has gone through before..There is a tale that say that evil men dwells within those mountains there...ghosts that are cursed as well" he says as he looks at her, waiting for any reaction if so is to come.
Caithrin says as she looks back at him with a fixed look "We need to be prepared of everything." "Yes..for anything..not just orcs...but wargs..wild men of Dunland and we need to make sure our horses gets the rest they need when we rest as well.." Cenwynne replies to her. Caithrin nod´s and she lower her head and closes her yes. She grimace a bit shake her head and look back up to Cenwynne as she says "I will plan the trip with Milcroft about good rest places." "He is from Rohan as well right? Perhaps he might know of towns where we could rest there.." Cenwynne replies to her. Caithrin nod´s while talking to him "Zandy was going to make us food aswell." "Good..we need supplies that will last..we might have to restock as we go along the way..This is no small task Cait..the journey to Rohan is a three week long one." he says in a serious tone again. This time the old caravan guard starts doing the talking instead. "We do. But for a start that´s good." she replies yet again to him "Yes..yes it is." he answer comes short and fast. "I know it will take some time but I am ready to do this for Zandy" she says looking down at the maps.
Cenwynne stands pondering for a brief moment before he replies "Thats all I need to hear.." as he looks down to the maps again, unaware of Caithrin as she goes to fill her glas again with water and she then drinks it as she hold a hand to her stomach before she then looks back down at the table. Cenwynne looks towards Cait from the maps "Something troubeling you Cait?" Cenwynne nods towards the hand on her stomach . Caithrin shakes her head. "Just some stress. Or something I eat. I am not sure. I will be fine when we are ready to go." Cenwynne looks on her with a slight worried look "Best to have someone look it over before we go..I would hate to bring you along and end up with a baby on my hands in the wild." he says and gives her a gentle wink. Caithrin smiles at him. "I am fine Cen. I just need to rest and eat better." "Good..who knows what you and Milcroft have been doing since h came back.. Anyhow..The task.." Caithrin smiles and look down at the maps again. " I will not guarante you that we will come back alive..or not..I can not guarante your saftey..nor your fate..we go..we go on with me as the head of us, I might still know a few tricks that will help us survive." he says looking at the maps.
"I go and have my safety in my own hands. I know how to fight, or at least to defend myself." she says as she grins to him. "Thats good..I will give some directions to Denstan before we leave regarding the shop and..." Cenwynne cuts his words short as he is unwilling to speak more of the matter for now. Caithrin starts to move around on the spot and rubs her upper arm. "Can we take this later on. I don´t feel so good, I think I need....." *blurp* "...a rest." Cenwynne nods "That sounds good Caith..meet me at the hall in a couple of days..say three..and have your gear with you..we are going then.." Caithrin nod´s at his words "I will be there".
