Ooh, I had not considered that but it makes sense from Caranthir's POV - the humans are all going to die eventually, aren't they? And I had not thought of Haleth thinking of that but now I'm sure she did, I thought more that she wasn't going to accept help from someone who showed up far too late to help when it mattered. This is my one of my favourite pics of her when she's all 'took you fucking long enough, Caranthir, yes you might own these lands but I'm not calling you a lord because YOU DON'T DESERVE IT'.
