The tariff fitted the unpretentious style of the accommodation, but Kalan was grateful to have both his share of the Caer Argent tourney prize and the journey money Lord Falk had given him. He had known the castellan was being generous, paying him a knight\u2019s fee for his service between Summer\u2019s Eve and Midsummer, on top of the Aldermere revenue that was his by right. Nonetheless, he would need to be careful if he had to wait long for a Sea House vessel, then buy passage to the Wall for himself and two horses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #003366;\">\u201cWe\u2019re plain here, both the rooms and the food, which comes at set hours if you want it.\u201d The innwife\u2019s look sharpened as she handed him a room key. \u201cAnd we\u2019re no Marlinspike.
