Nod. "I'll meet up with Lan, then."

Eloise nods.

To the stables, then.

"Sheepherder," Lan acknowledges him.

Permalink

"Warder," he says, inclining his head a bit. Then: "Lady Alys said you might have clothing that would fit me."

Permalink

"I may. You're taller, but not so broad in the shoulder."

Permalink

"Thanks." (Liland's taller than everyone, so.)

Permalink

"Is that sword all you have?"

Permalink

"...Yeah."

Permalink

"A heron-mark's not something I expected to see here."

Permalink

"It's dad's - and I don't know much about dad's life before he had me... I know he was a soldier, though."

Permalink

"No ordinary soldier. The heron is the mark of a blademaster."

Permalink

Slow nod.

Then, after a moment: "I'm - not going to be worthy of it. I'm not a - physical fighter."

Permalink

"Keep it hidden, then. Too many fools would see it as a challenge."

Permalink

Slow nod.

Permalink

Lan digs a blanket out of a pack and tosses it to Liland. "Here. Wrap it in this."

Permalink

He does so. "Thanks."

"Will you - teach me to at least hold my own in a fight?"

Permalink

"I could. If we can outrun the Trollocs."

Permalink

Nod.

"I'll do what I can to help with that."

Then, more slowly: "What do you know about - this business with the Dragon?"

Permalink

"That there are far too many places ears could be hiding here to talk about things like that, sheepherder."

Permalink

Slow nod. "Where's a better place, then?"

Permalink

"On the road, once we leave."

Permalink

"Alright."

Permalink

Which will be soon as Eloise rounds up the other two, and everyone gets situated on a horse.

Permalink

They're all familiar enough with farm horses, at least.
