Lady Carliss And the Waters of Moorue (2010)
“It was indeed a small village. Carliss estimated there were only a few hundred people. She knew the odds were slim that they would find someone here who could help Dalton. She nearly turned about to ride straight for Salisburg, but Salina insisted they try.
They rode to the only tavern in the town and dismounted. Carliss was grateful to rest her arms. Salina helped her get Dalton off his horse and position him sitting against the wall.

Carliss stared at him, stunned. He was clearly not himself, but hearing him say such things still rattled her.
“No one here can help.” Salina had appeared in the doorway.MoreLess
