Cassandra is ready to head home, as are Gerrund and the others, but they will wait as Anoras helps to bind up the many wounds of the Holidor.

There are three groups of prisoners:


1) the prisoners escorted by Gurrund and Anoras to the battle site. These are very clearly belonging to the Haunden, if they want them. I thought Anoras wanted to turn them over to the Holidor though. This group was captured in the wake of Stripe's death.
2) The archers that were captured by Anoras after Cassandra and Her beat fireballs
3) The warriors who stopped fighting after wings was killed. Cassandra and Anoras then ran off, and those warriors, who include Busan,where captured by the Holidor.

(Anoras had ideas on the prisoners based on what she knew at the time, but she's learned more since. I was working to avoid playing out-of-character knowledge.)

Anoras (speaking in Venasir, and pointing to the prisoners escorted by Gurrund and Anoras to the battle site, and to the archers): "Mystic Shadow Mask, I believe these are ours.

"As for Busan, I was there in the beginning, but not at the end. I have bits of information that could be very useful to both Holidor and Haunden. But I would need to question him further. It might be more convenient for us all if Busan was traded from Holidor to Haunden for another prisoner. I would leave the decision on who that prisoner is entirely up to you, Mystic ShadowMask." (She is right now very unsure about how she feels about Busan.)

"But I do want to tell you about these others." (She will point to the prisoners she knows surrendered/cooperated--she is not pointing to Busan): "Mystic ShadowMask. These people I am pointing to surrendered and cooperated. Some of them defended themselves before surrendering, some tried to run away, and some surrendered immediately. But not a single one of them attacked a person of Holidor or Haunden after they saw the rebel sorcerer who had them under orders was down.

"As far as I can see, these people were following orders. But when they were free to do as they wished, they showed no signs of supporting the rebellion."
