"A better question to ask," said Merrion, "is where are you going to go?" He pointed to the sleeping child. "And what of it?"

"I don't know," said Ella. "You're a klugscheisser know-it-all, why don't you take it?"

"No need to lose your temper," said Merrion. "What's your plan? Find your offspring and then what?"

"I'm going to try sleep. I can't think straight anymore."

I'm so tired and hurt, she realised, her body starting to shut down in withdrawal and stress and the trauma from her wound. "But, if you're going to leave in the middle of the night and steal what's mine, you’d better kill me, because I will do worse than remove your fingernails."

Merrion gave the slightest of nods. She made one last check on the child and horses, then folded onto the ground, the bare blanket and earth under her like the finest quilted mattress know to Earth, and fell asleep curled up as if in womb, one hand resting on Helena.

Merrion threw more fuel onto the fire. He looked at the woman, and her strange and terrifying weapons, and the child wrapped in red and gold, and made his decision. He retrieved his crossbow, pulled the dagger from the log, and walked until the firelight no longer touched him.
