Meesei shook her head. "No, I do not believe there is any more we can do for now.

Once you finish what you can for the night, you should all be sure to get some rest. I have some experience in overworking myself, and I can say with confidence that it does not help one's judgment." 

With the meeting over, the warband's leaders began to disperse and head for their own tasks, or in Lorag's case, his bedroll.

Though Fendros' opinions held a lot of weight with Ahnasha, her innate stubbornness was also showing through quite clearly. Overall, she was not an easy person to persuade. "So you trust her too?

Why would you think she is being honest?" Ahnasha asked. Meanwhile, Irenya had broken eye contact once more and was looking down, rubbing her arm lightly.
