Thornden answered Athanar absently, speaking with little thought and little conviction. He thought instead of what had just happened, what he had said, and how much he now wished he could take back some of the words he had spoken. He was not wont to speak hastily, yet that is what he had just done to Falco. He frowned inwardly and then came out of his own thoughts to hear Athanar tell him that they would be reaching Faramund’s holding in a little while.

“It should be less than two miles, my lord,” Thornden said. It would be twenty minutes, continuing at this same, rocking gait.

The road rolled from beneath their feet. As they drew closer to the landlord’s dwelling, the tracks became clearer, the grass grew less in the dirt of the road, and the land around them changed from the ever bending and blowing golden-brown grass of winter to broken and plowed fields. The smell of bare earth came to their nostrils as they passed between the croplands. All the crops had been taken in, the stalks harvested, and the earth turned and returned before the ground froze.

And then before them opened the scene of lord Faramund’s hall. Smoke issued from the chimneys, and men worked in the courtyard. Soon, they would be seen and word would be sent to Faramund.
