Lovely gatecrashing,
Lommy (and thanks for giving me something to react to when I had succumbed to a bit of a writer's block)!
Mnemo, re-reading your last post for Brinn, I thought I'd made it clear above that Coldan didn't actually 'tell his side of the story', or at least not all of it - I imagined him only saying as much as I put between inverted commas in
this post (because he thinks Asta and Aldarion had already told Brinn what happened). It's not a big prob, and we can assume he said a bit more between lines, but let's be clear that he didn't tell Brinn the details of his quarrel with Asta or her appearance in the common room last Night.
