He, at least, seemed prepared for trouble, with the multiple braids of his hair clubbed into a knot and a pair of short, curved swords strapped to his back.\u00a0 Asantir\u2019s brows had risen again when she saw them, for swallow-tail swords were a weapon of Ishnapur. \u201cAnd Jhaine,\u201d Tarathan had answered, when she said as much, \u201cbut they are popular now in the cities of the River.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSpring came to the River in a flurry of blustering winds and driving rain that turned the local roads into quagmires and hurled the first fragile blossoms to the ground. Two heralds were blown out of the city of Terebanth with the weather and turned east toward Ij, following the great Main Road that had endured since the days of the Old Empire.

…the heralds had taken him to the great harborside market in Port Farewell. The market was famous for its trade in armor and weapons sourced from every corner of Haarth, which Tarathan had assured him would include Derai equipment. Kalan had found the herald was right, although most of what he examined had been the generic armament the Derai Alliance traded with the River and Southern Realms of Haarth. But because more Derai had been traveling south in recent years, mainly to the River, but a handful into Emer and Lathayra as well, he was able to find a scabbard with the House of Blood\u2019s hydra stamp and a cuirass in the distinctive deep-red steel particular to the warrior House.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
