Léof was relieved to see Quin hurrying up to him – maybe he would have news about what was going on, or instructions for what needed to be done. But Léof was disappointed for Quin arrived with more questions, not answers. “What’s amiss, Léof? Everybody is suddenly uptight and you look like you’re on patrol duty.”
“I’m not rightly sure,” Léof answered. “It seems that I’m always one of the last people to find out what’s going on. But a little bit ago a bunch of Faramund’s men went hurrying out to the stables, and they were armed. I don’t know if there’s going to be a fight, or what they’re planning to do, but I figure it’s my duty to make sure they don’t try to do anything to our horses,” he finished, gesturing at the line of horses tied to the paddock.
