The former sergeant dropped to one knee in front of Wendai, who sat cross legged on her outspread sleeping roll. Across Wendai’s lap lay a silken pillow large enough for two to share. On the pillow was a thumb-sized gem of pale green.

The tired horses were hidden and hobbled within the center of the copse, dry twigs had been scattered around the concealed encampment, and fishing lines with tiny dark bells were strung at shin height. Not, Wendai suspected, that these precautions would give much warning should the wandering woman suddenly return from her reconnaissance of the city Great Forks.

In their hearts, Wendai might still be their captain, but for the moment at least, she was no longer their sister.
