Derufin felt the stone warm at his breast. Next moment, he received a tap on the shoulder. He turned to see Uien smiling at him. Behind her was Falowik, flushing a dark shade of crimson. She was certainly the forward one of the two. That probably would never change.

"About that dance you promised me, Master Derufin."

"It would be an honor." Derufin looked to Zimzi, then to Falowik.

The Bree man straightened and offered his hand to the bride. "Lady? It would be an honor if you would dance with me."

Zimzi laughed. "Where did you learn such fancy speech?" Falowik colored, but smiled, and the two ladies glided on the arms of their partners.

It was a folk song, quick of rhythm and light of heart. The dance was quick and hearty too. Falowik forgot himself in the fun of it. The tinumir at their throats were warm, if they noticed in the vigor of the dance, and the light within danced, as fast as their steps, from rune to rune.
