The hounds he had been hearing more frequently since leaving Emer were silent, but a woman spoke in Derai, her intonation exasperated. “I’ll be glad when we’re done with this nursemaiding detail.”

A man replied, sounding weary despite his good-humored tone. “We all will, Innor. But riding escort allows us to scout out this country like the captain wants, especially up around
