<p>“Her power is stolen. Mayhap her knowledge is lacking.”  Eydryth to Alon, speaking of Yachne.</p>
<p>“Fair can be foul.”  What Eydryth remembers Sylva telling her: not to trust outward appearance.</p>
<p>“You must. There is naught else to be done.”  Alon, arguing to Eydryth that she must take Monso and ride to find her kin, while he goes after Yachne.</p>
<p>“A promise, once having been spoken, must be kept, regardless of cost.”  Part of the song Eydryth sings her father while waiting to see if Dahaun’s mud will cure him</p>
<p>“Hope is something we will need sorely in the coming years.”  Eydryth’s reflection on the meaning of the name, Trevon, just given her youngest brother.</p>
<p>“I’m glad the lesson sank in.” <i>Tourist Trap,</i> by Sue Ann Bowling. Penny’s response to Roi’s insistence that he is wearing his warnoff after a previous problem.</p>
