She was gone.

Rion sat at the table in the great hall, stared at the goblet of ale in his hand, and brooded. Helwin had gone back to her uncle’s, and that was just as it should be. She shouldn’t be tied to a man who had nothing but a sagging castle and no prospects. She should remain safe under her uncle’s roof.

If she didn’t, Rion would marry her and lose even the sagging castle. He would once again travel the roads of Europe as a mercenary—and she would go with him.

He’d seen what happened to women who joined a mercenary troop to be with their man. They grew old before their time. They bore children in dirty tents and died of childbed fever. If they lived, eventually, their men died on the battlefield and they were forced to become camp followers.

He couldn’t bear to have Helwin suffer with such a life. He’d done the right thing by sending her away.
