For Therlion and Kalam:
One of the men in the group, who seemed to be an officer of some rank, cried out:
"Do not trust them! Elves have always been known to be evil."
It seemed that all of the men started shouting at the same time after that, all saying what they thought was right. It took Kalam several minutes to calm everone down, after which he went aside with two of his officers to debate the situation. While they were talking a fierce looking rider edged his horse closer to Therlion's and in a voice barely above a whisper announced to him: "I'm the one who'se going to get you."
The other men in the meantime where either pointing their weapons at Keal, or trying to hear what their leaders were talking about.
About five minutes later Kalam came back and announced the decision he had made.
"You may come with us, but your hands shall be tied and your weapons taken away, until I say otherwise. We also do not have another horse, I'm sure you could ride with your friend Therlion."
All the while he spoke Kalam kept sending apologetic glances at Therlion. He had to make him understand that he had to be the leader of his men, still seemingly loyal to his father.
EDIT: spelling.
