Eodwine arched a brow. Æðelhild's bearing was different; more noble, he supposed. He gestured to his left, toward the corridor that led to his receiving room. She nodded once to him, then to the others sitting at table, and proceeded in the direction he had indicated. The other guests, who had quieted, resumed their conversation as Eodwine followed her out of the hall.

She seemed not only more noble in her bearing, but a bit troubled. Eodwine wondered how things went with Hrethel at Meduseld.

She stood aside as he opened his door. He led her into his receiving room and offered her a chair, then sat down across his small table from her. The lowering sun still was high above the horizon to the west, so he needed to light no candles yet.

"Pray tell me what news you bring," Eodwine said.
