Perhaps a good one. A break, if nothing else. 

Permalink

A break.

It has been... some time since she's taken such a thing.

Permalink

Then now's the time. 

Permalink

So be it.

Permalink

Aredhel is, of course, ready to leave as soon as Celebrimbor is - though she doesn't know if clues to their target's heading may have been left here. 

Permalink

She's already consigned the treacherous bitch's effects to the fire.

Permalink

Fair.

They'll use their senses and their wits, then - and Celebrimbor's own knowledge. 

Permalink

Such as it is.

Permalink

Aredhel could use an overview, nonetheless. She's received only... Fragmented information. 

Permalink

Does she want an enumeration of mistakes ordered alphabetically or chronologically?

Permalink

"...I can listen, if that's something you want or need to talk about, but - for hunting the bitch down, all I need is the practical things."

Permalink

 

"Practically speaking, then. She talked often of her time in the east and of the peoples of the south."

Permalink

"Then that's where we'll start."

Permalink

Celebrimbor can give some more specific places and names.

Permalink

She'll compare them to her maps, making a few small markings as notes.

Permalink

The first stages of the quest, one assumes.

Permalink

Most important parts of hunting are knowing your target and knowing your land. 

Permalink

Indeed.

Permalink

They're ready to head out soon enough, though - up to Celebrimbor if she wants to leave immediately or wait for dawn. 

Permalink

She sees no need to linger, now that a course has been decided.

Permalink

Off with them, then - it's fastest to cut through Khazad-dum, then follow the river from Mirrormere to Nen Hithoel and perhaps beyond. It'd be perhaps three weeks from Ost-in-Edhil to Nen Hithoel - whereas if they take the southern roads, they're far less likely to run into certain relatives in Lothlorien, but they'd easily be two months or more on the road to reach the same region. 

Permalink

Celebrimbor has little desire to weather the scolding of Lothlorien.

Permalink

They can take the long way, if Celebrimbor prefers. 

Permalink

It's not as though she will have anyone of import waiting on her return.

Permalink

Downstream to the ford at Tharbad, then; the road south from that town is large and in good repair at least.
