A while later the companions were sitting in the common room of the White Tree Inn back in Puujan. Hulda rented them rooms for the next few nights. They were all tired and needed time to recover.
Liselle sipped the wine Hulda had brought them. “So where do we go from here, Cousin?”
Tathan made sure no one could overhear. “I think we should speak to Mother Tree next.” The feeling was back. Something was watching him, hunting him once more. He had even jumped with his sword drawn on the way back to the inn, alarming his friends.
“I agree with Master Tathan.” Sir Danth sat with his back against the wall again.
“Then it’s settled,” said Liselle with a smile after Vevin nodded in agreement. “We’ll rest a few days then off we go.”
They raised their glasses in a toast.
None of them saw the cowled woman staring from the window. Her dark green eyes studied their every move.
