"We'll see. The Chantry of Auriel has his own particular customs and traditions that you are not aware of. Just follow my lead and you won't offend anyone." She muttered to him as they walked through the ivory building.

The other curate and his paladin companion walked beside them in silence.

They travelled through a series of tall corridors adorned with banners depicting Auriel's star symbol hanging beside windows of blue stained glass. After a few minutes they ascended a set of large marble stairs and reached the upper part of the chantry building.

Yslenor led the Half-breed into a conference room of sorts, large and with multiple benches all pointed to one end of the room where a white throne stood and beside it two high seats of treated birch wood. The benchs were on slightly different elevations so that even those in the back could see the throne and the high seats. All the benches seemed to be seperated into two groups, each matched the color and design of one of the high seats and the banner that was positioned behind them. On the ceiling hung a chandelier with a glass depiction of Auriel's star.

There were numerous other Falmer already in the room. Yslenor walked to the benches on the left side of the room and took a seat near the front. She motioned for Karyor to take the seat opposite to her on the right side of the room.

Helgi had a worried smirk on his face. "Alright...well let's put that big cat to use then in helping us bring the supplies to the ships."

Jofrodr joined the crewmembers that were carrying crates and barrels filled with weapons, clothing, food and camping supplies to the town docks where the Companions had hired a few longships to take them to the capital.

As he was doing so he complained. "Maybe we should've kept that cart afterall." He was using Sunchaser to help carry some of the load, but he still had to carry crates himself.

"You should be more careful, wouldn't want to miss the whole war just because you overslept." Randagulf joked.

Once the boats were empty, the Companions lifted them up, turned them over so that the hull was facing the sky and carried them down the cliffside in groups. It took two scores of people to carry a single longboat and even then it was difficult to do so. So the progress to the lower level of the river was slow and exhausting, but there was no way around the waterfall without this manual labour. In some of the smoother hill of the path they were able to cut down logs and use them to roll the boat down more gently, but in the steeper sections of the cliff there was no choice but to carry the heavy boats.

Elisiv, Randagulf, Gudmund and Gunnar were all helping to carry the boats down to the continuation of the river below.
