RANSOM LET HER SLIP past him and sink wearily to the ground.

“That went well,” she sighed.

Ransom couldn’t help but laugh. “I can’t imagine what your definition of bad is.”

Annabeth giggled at the prospect, then sobered.

“I think that would have been having Lord Raburn walking in and arresting all of us. He would have been so happy; all of his troubles would have been over in one fell swoop: Song Lark, you, Alf, and me. Christina would have been an unfortunate witness that would have been added to the casualty list, and my father. Then it would all have been over for him. I just hope they are all right.”

“They had enough horses once they were out of sight to get away with all speed.”

“Christina has never been out of castle walls. I just hope she doesn’t mind roughing it, and in boy’s clothes, nonetheless.”

“I am sure she’ll find some way to manage.”

“I hope so,” Annabeth sighed and, laying down, closed her eyes, pulling the cloak fully around her.

“Those clothes you gave me were for the prince, weren’t they?”

“Hmm?” she said, opening her eyes wearily.

“The clothes you gave me before we went to meet with Song Lark. You said I should look like a farmer. You had those laid aside for the prince, didn’t you?”

“What would make you think that?”

“These fit the same way those do.”

“That’s good to know,” Annabeth said dryly, and rolled over.

“You aren’t going to answer my question, are you?”

“I don’t think it needs answering,” she replied shortly.

“Good night, Annabeth,” he said, pulling his cloak about him and falling wearily to the ground, murmuring in his mind. “Only a few hours...a few hours.”

Suddenly, Annabeth’s quiet voice broke the stillness as she turned to face him.

“They were for the prince, but it makes no matter.”

Ransom caught her eyes. They were quiet, tired, and something else he could not discern.

“Your father’s going to be all right,” he whispered confidently, feeling that it was so.

“Good night,” she whispered, and turned over once again.
