[u]Brief summary as to what Althalus, Aramir, andUicle have been doing.[/u] 

Aramir: Training with her bow, mostly. Whether it be by hunting with Mar, or simple target practice. 

Althalus: Watching Lyn. While not going so far as to tackle anyone who even twitches at her the wrong way, he's always willing to stab someone if she gets herself into trouble she can't get out of. 

Uicle: Golems. More Golems.
