Echoes of Betrayal
“Behind him, his little band of Duke’s Company and Verrakai militia continued to crunch along, making no complaint.

Despite Duke Verrakai’s occasional scoldings, Beclan was sure his extra troops showed she knew he was the most senior, the most qualified. This was his third patrol with them and the farthest west; ...he felt that he now had their full respect as both Duke Verrakai’s squire and Duke Mahieran’s son.
