Okay, so we've decided it'd be best to have the group rendevous at Solitude. Sort of have a meeting with Queen Elisif, some of her military people, advisors, etc. Salthar will either arrive late or earlier than the others, on account of his meeting with the head of the wise council. That's the goal for this section of the story. Then the fellowship (I like Torins use of the word, and it makes sense.) heads either to Winterhold or Windhelm in search of something to defeat the Blight.
