Coen's jaw was gripped tightly. There was no doubt in his mind now that Thornden had seen one if not both of the men riding away. There may have been no reason for Thornden to detain them then, but once he had learned what happened to Scyrr, the man lied. He saw no reason to tell the truth, for the sake of two troublemakers? He now risked a great deal more than if he had given up this information.

"Thank you, Hilderinc," he said quietly. The weight of a poor night's sleep was now catching up to him. "It is perhaps no matter now, except to know that he cannot be trusted." Which was a great matter to him.

Coen kept his voice low. The stables were getting busy as the men prepared to leave. Thornden might be among them. He would not keep this from Thornden long, but it would have to wait until after the day's concerns. Today there would still be peace between them.

The Captain lead his horse fully tacked out of the stables and into the yard.
