(@Zoor: No, if that were the case this army would be quite small. Each Companion crew only has about 100 men give or take. Randagulf's warband includes people from all over Skyrim, including Skorm and half of Ostmark's forces.)

Nesiro looked over at Karyor. "Until then our archers will give those barbarians a good thrashing and when they are in range us Curates will have our own magic to use against them."

Kane was standing beside the Jarl, as was Stinralg, as his housecarl. With Skorm gone the two of them had become the Jarl's chief bodyguards. He trusted them a lot more after having spent months with them since they first met on that quest to kill the dragon.

"Jarl, what is the plan?" Stinralg asked.

"This clearing will prove a major problem for us. Doubtless the elves are just waiting for us to leave the forest in order to pelt us with arrows and spells." Harald stated. "A shieldwall will protect us from their arrows, but we will need something else for their magic."

"Do you want me to call forth the Mages or priests?" Kane asked.

"Send a messenger to the Arch-Mage. He and his mages must accompany the vanguard." Harald ordered.

Kane nodded and went to relay the order.

Tannr didn't seem to mind the journey to Nilheim, having accompanied Reyl without incident. He had grown accustomed to a few of the other Companions of her crew and his training under Urlath had left him much more friendly to other humans.

Jofrodr took a break from the work. "Reyl, about what I said before. I meant it. I won't let you die."

Despite being middle-aged, Randagulf was helping with the construction. When Lars approached him he paused for a moment. "It won't be for some time. We must take care of the elven fortress and secure the lake. Otherwise it will be impossible for us to take their island." He replied.
