Eodwine
Saeryn looked at him with shining eyes. “Eodwine," she whispered, “I love you.”
"You know my heart is yours," he replied. He took her hand in his and they remained so for some time until the vittles arrived at their table.
She did have the mettle he had called upon. He was convinced that it was one of the things that had drawn him to her in the first place. With her by his side, giving him such good words as these, he knew that he would be well very soon. And their life at Scarburg, and wherever they were, would be good. They would have each other. It was enough.
