What None of Them Saw

Between Rastaban’s charm, Kana’s guileless madness, and Andrev’s stubbornness, the strange man - whose name was Dalinor - agreed to sleep in the tent nearest to Rastaban’s for security’s sake.

That tent was Kana’s, which made Andrev feel sympathetic for about two seconds before she gathered up her nest of furs and announced that she would sleep under the stars with Andrev, a respectable distance away from his fur pallet.

Andrev saw Dalinor smirking.

None of them saw Kir and his fellow hunters lingering on the edge of the camp, watching the argument unfold.

One of the hunters ran to tell Savva.
