'That man!' Izrênna exclaimed, Where is the man?'

Béowulf looked at her wondering what she meant.

'The one...the one...that was ahead,' continued Izrênna.

'Deorlin!' exclaimed Anglachel, suddenly remembering, 'He is not here!'

Deorlin! thought Béowulf, Another Rider of the Mark!

'Where is he?' Izrênna asked again.

'We must look for him!' said Izrênna, looking at the ground, hoping to find any sign of Deorlin's tracks.

'Can any of you read tracks?' she called out to the group, 'We may be able to tell where he went through the markings he left!'

'I may be of service!' said Béowulf, 'In what direction do you think he went?' If there is another Rider who needs rescue or. . . burial, I need to be one of those to do it.

'Save the Horses!' cried Corrin the Dwarf 'Save Deorlin! Ha-hah! Yesh! Let's go!'

Béowulf once again took the Dwarf to ride with him. (Léod was still not pleased by the arrangement, but he made no fuss this time). Izrênna also by this time had mounted and both Rider and Dwarf joined her.

After riding for some time, Izrênna was the first to see Deorlin where he lay. She spurred her horse ahead of the others, gladdened that they were able to find him, and was soon near the wounded man.
