  Sarilyn blinked once, and was startled at the attention.  She hadn't had
her hand kissed since...well...since one of the fancy parties at the
Manor!  She'd gotten used to being 'just a rider' here, and learned that
her title didn't mean one thing...and happily, she was starting to like
that idea.

  She wondered if 'Sir' Malic was just putting on airs, and decided to
wait before speaking her mind.

  What a bold move, and as transparent as glass.  This one was smooth, she
had to give him credit for that.  But she knew who her heart fancied, and
intended to keep it that way.

  "That's a good idea!  H'lie knows everything anyhow...if anyone can do
anything for Malic (she purposley left off the 'Sir') he can."

  Goodness!, Sarilyn thought, he just trots up and interrupts the
conversation that's going on.  Then she stopped short, and blinked in
suprise.  And she'd done the very same thing when she arrived.  Damn, but
it was like she was seeing herself in Malic, and she found herself not
liking what she saw.

  Time to set things to rights, and the devil with the consequences!
