For Therlion:
As soon as Therlion was on a horse the group started moving out the gate. Once outside the gate Kalam started explaining to Therlion.
"Scouts have indicated to us the presence of a large group of wild men from the hills two days ride south of here. These men have always been the enemy of our people for generations. It appears that our town was built on some holy site of theirs. They are the tribe of the Urgilths and about once every generation they try to capture our city. My father ordered me to go out with a scouting party to determine exactly what we are facing. He also said that I should take you with me. I do not know why, maybe he though that an elf could see things others would not."
Kalam then drew his horse closer to Therlion's and added in a whisper.
"But my father has never shown trust this fast before. I fear he had other reasons for this. Some of the men in this group aren't truly scouts, but soldiers who usually do his dirty work for him."
