Rhonin almost seemed ready to answer her, but at that moment another figure called out. They both
looked back to see Duncan Senturus coming toward them.
Somthing struck the elf. She had not thought of the paladin when she had been trying to convince Falstad
to carry Rhonin and her across the sea. Knowing the knight as she already did, Vereesa had the horrible
feeling that he would insist on going with them, too.
That thought had not likely occurred yet to the wizard, whose fury still centered around the ranger.
“We'll talk of this when we've more privacy, Vereesa, but know this already—when we reach the shores
of Khaz Modan, I andonlyI will continue on! You'll be returning with our good friend Falstad . . . and if
you think of going any farther—”
His eyes flared. Literally flared. Even the stalwart elf could not help but lean back in astonishment.
“—I'll send you back here myself!”
