Harper’s Tale

Kaeldra and Jeorg and the harper set off through the night. Nysien took leave of them and soon returned with horses. Stolen horses.

Do not judge them harshly for what I tell next, my ladies. They did not hold with thieving. They had never stolen in their lives. But they set aside their scruples and took the pilfered mounts. Kaeldra was with child, mind you-—and nearly crazed with worry over her sister and son.

They rode hard back toward the cave. But Kaeldra was tiring; they stopped at Yanil’s steading to rest.

His wife gave them the news:Yanil was gone to Tyneth with Owyn and Lyf and a clutch of baby dragons. All were well—thus far.

Kaeldra wept for joy when she heard it.

They quickly supped, then headed back for Tyneth. Nysien rode ahead, as his mount was swifter than the rest.

Or that was the reason he gave. He did not speak of the secret side trek he would make to tell the Krags.

They would all meet up, he said, at the inn.

And Lyf?

I will come to her, my lady. Never fear.
