a woman approached, beautiful enough to distract the eye from the maiming wound which announced a harsher life than the one offered by this palace. eivor watched with a mild amusement as the servant turned her wondering eyes on akavir, only for the sentiment to fade. they knew one another, and from the sight of it, their meeting had not been pleasant.
assumptions, of course. her shoulder brushed that of akavir as they followed, a silent reassurance that he had not come alone to these halls of memory. the servant who led them had called herself belen, and eivor etched each face in her mind as they walked through the bustle which always seemed to be demanded by royals.
feeling akavir's tension sparked her own resolve to stay alert. the servant brought them to a small chamber and indicated a place of laid reeds and sheepskins set on either side. there were no words, but when eivor glanced up toward her again, a stricken look had consumed the lovely features. belen all but ran from the chamber then, her exit marked by the entry of other fellahin who brought fatted mutton and raspberries with honey, pheasant quarters, edible greenery, laying these upon the reeds.
only when they were alone again did eivor look direct toward akavir. "are we in danger?"
