"Mat Rushlight! Did you say Mat Rushlight?" Andreth turned to face Poppy. She had paid little attention to the most recent developments, and had not heard the name before.
Poppy looked over, "Yes, that's his name. Do you know him?"
"J-just a little. He is a Breelander. I have heard of him before. He hails from my home county."
Andreth felt a chill run through her heart. Who were these villains to do such a thing to a man who had done no particular harm to anyone? And why had they settled on someone from Bree? If someone was keeping an eye on her home region, perhaps they had seen others in the area as well. That thought made her strangely nervous.
