Dec 25: Nethwador
Nethwador's eyes flicked from Bella to Argeleafa and Liornung, and back to Bella; but then his brow furrowed again, and anger sparked in his eyes. Giving Bella's hand an awkward pat, he turned and approached Argeleafa. He studied her, glancing at Liornung.
Then he turned and looked at Ędegard, and his hands balled into fists. He spoke four strong words in his strange tongue to Argeleafa, and then strode towards Ędegard.
"Wait, " said Argeleafa. "Nethwador--"
Liornung hesitated. "What did he say?"
Argeleafa looked at Liornung through her tears. "I'm not sure, but it was about Ędegard and it wasn't nice."
Liornung stood and called to Nethwador to no avail.
