Lady Knight
“If you have a criticism or an insult you’d like to deliver, then take me aside and tell me, I don’t care. Though I must say, I do get bored with folk claiming I became a knight either because I’m a slut or I’m desperate for a husband. You’d think people would be a little more original. I’m surprised to hear such talk from you.”
Fanche grimaced. “Why? Because I’m another woman, and everyone knows women are sweet and helpful with each other? Because we’re all sisters under the Goddess?”
K...el met her eyes steadily. “No. Because I expected you to know what it’s like, to be a woman and command. Lord Wyldon said you rallied your people when Goatstrack fell. You took charge and fought till you got them to Giantkiller. I know you must have had men who argued and baulked and nearly got you all killed. I’d hoped you’d see you and I are in the same boat, and keep your disagreements between the two of us.”
