Farouk's words had made sense to him, and there was no reason to doubt his wisdom. Ulrich could defend Gaellos, he knew, and Traegus was not yet needed. He was also confident that Titus would be a great help in the battle for Gaellos, and also knew that he would return when the battle was over. All that was left was to free Argan, and any smaller settlements in the area, then it was on to Faerbane. Jadhav and his men would guard the sea, hopefully intercepting any ships that tried to sail around the coast and to the Western shore. The Raj and his fleet would make short work of any standard vessels the Jindala had, but a small amount of doubt remained whether they would even have any effect on any ships that carried the beasts that were expected to land. The Enkhatar were supernatural, and the wights that would accompany them were not easy to destroy. Along the road to Argan, Eamon noticed the improved demeanor of his knights. They had all rested well after a night of enjoyment, and Azim was renewed at the meeting between him and Farouk.
