“ “I dunno. Eat, maybe?” the boy grinned, shyly. “That can be arranged. But if you could make anything happen, live any kind of life, what would that be?” “Uh, make sure my mom is safe,” he said, earnestly. “I’m all she has. I have to watch out for her.” The boys aid it so resolutely, with such passion, that Rondal was moved. “That we can manage,” Rondal promised. “We will find a safe place for you and your mother. And ensure her security.” “How are you going to do t...hat?” “A fair question. I think it best for her not to leave southern Alshar, because the passage we’ll take is hard, as hard as the Land of Scars. So we want to put her someplace where the Rats are weakest.” “Where would that be?” “In the Great Vale, in a remote domain, under a different name,” Rondal proposed. “We can give her a believable story, one that will help protect her. The Vale Lords are much like the Wilderlords, from my home. Most would find even speaking to a Rat dishonorable. There is little vice there for them to profit from, and I know a lord there who owes us a boon or three. We can find a safe place there.”MoreLessRead More Read Less
