'This one will take time and patience.' she thought to herself. She eyed him as he stood before her.

'You look healthy enough.' she said. 'Can you help Hob when he comes to the stable tomorrow?' she saw his hesitant look again. 'He's our stable master, and he's always in need of some one to do odd jobs around the yard and stalls.' 'He'll fix you up with something to do to work off your room and board..'

She walked with him to the stable. 'There are some clean blankets there in the corner, and the loft is full of sweet, fresh hay.' She pointed out the ladder to him.

'Now you can either come in and have some supper and drink in the Inn, or I can send Buttercup out with a basket and a skin of cider.' She handed him two of the clean blankets. 'Which do you prefer?'
