Fortress In The Eye Of Time (2006) - Plot & Excerpts
Besides the tent, he saw the wagon to carry it, and some number of horses grazing within the ruined wall which surrounded the small camp, a ground with pavings here or there breaking surface amid the trampled grasses: it was some former room, or hall, and of men there were thirty or so, hardly more. “What’s this?” a man confronted them to ask. “M’lord,” the older of the archers said, “m’lord, he came unarmed. He claims to be Cefwyn’s man.” “A bedraggled sort of emissary. And no attendant? No ring, no seal? A scout, far more likely. Where did you find him?” The archers gave a quick and slightly muddled explanation, how he had come walking up to their post, how he had not argued with the request to go with them. The man was not convinced. “And what do you have to say for yourself?” “Sir,” he said, “I am Cefwyn’s friend, and I’m fully willing to carry messages to him.” He did not add that they were strangers in Cefwyn’s land, and that, absent the weapons, he should most properly be asking them the questions about their intentions and their right to be where they were.
