Leareth listens to her update and spitballs some theories and then falls asleep being the little spoon, because he’s still easily tired even by thinking, it’s ridiculous.

She is taking a break so she can just stay here and snuggle him more even though he is asleep.

Nearly a candlemark passes before Amshalan reaches out. :Belrun, Rolan's back and - he wants to know if there's a safe way to call a meeting. With everyone who's even well enough to attend at all, I suppose: 

:I guess we could all hang out really far apart from each other in a field?:

:At that point it's hardly better than Mindspeaking from our rooms– I guess the Council can't join that way. And can't Mindspeak either way, they'll have to yell. Maybe they can yell through scarves over their mouths or something, if it's still possible to hear people that way: 

:Companions can Mindspeak with anybody, right? If it's very important...:

:Yes, that's true. I guess we could pull everyone into a sort of group Mindspeech link. I think Rolan would still prefer to do it in a format where we can all see each other's faces, even if it's from across a field: 

:If he says so. Not everybody may be up for getting up and walking to a field...:

:True. I think all the Heralds are at least up for getting themselves to the courtyard where we can collect them. I’m less sure of the condition of our lords, do you know which of them might still be too unwell to leave their rooms?:

:Lords Kathar and Leverance can't get out of bed without help yet. I'm not sure of anyone being recovered enough to be able to render assistance. Healers have to get near them sometimes anyway, but hauling them around would be kind of a production and we're only just now at the point where it made sense for me to take an actual break not for meals or because I was too low on reserves to go on another candlemark:

:That's fair. I guess I'll prod Rolan on whether he really wants to do an outdoor meeting right now without them, or wait. I guess we could haul everyone else out and then include them by Mindspeech-link: 

:It seems a lot of trouble to go to for facial expressions. I guess he could be planning on more Truth Spells:

:I don't know. We're going to discuss a bit with the Companions, I'll get back to you: 

:Okay: She snuggles her Leareth some more.

:–He's not budging on the outdoor meeting but he agrees that anyone who doesn't feel up for walking to the field we're choosing can instead be kept in the loop with Mindspeech and we can relay anything they want to say. He wants to do it in half a candlemark, if you think that's feasible: 

:That seems fine. I'm just catching up on snuggling here:

:Aww, I'm glad. Is Leareth up for coming to the meeting, do you think? Rolan would like it if he could: 

:He's asleep right now but otherwise probably?:

:I'm sure Rolan would like you to wake him for it if he doesn't wake up by then, but I guess it's up to you if you think he needs the sleep more: 

:I will keep an eye on the bond to see if it can help me intuit a good moment to wake him up:

Leareth doesn't wake up spontaneously during the next twenty minutes or so, but he does seem to be in a lighter sleep. 

"Psst."

"Mmm?" He stirs, sleepily. 

"Rolan's calling a big fancy meeting outside. Do you feel up to going?"

"Oh. I can go, yes. Why?"
