Lachlan drove the cart down towards the Inn, the young girl clinging to him for dear life. Inwardly he said 'Well, I asked for excitement...'. He looked at the pale faced maid, still shaking a little. Lachlan did not blame her.
He also noticed how worried her friend was. He remembered the lad from the Inn, Talan was his name. He was sure this boy could take care of her just fine, but she seemes resolute. He remembered his deliveries left to be done, and took up a little more speed.
'Ai..I still have to see the carpenter...hmm...well I'll just have to work hastier now' he thought as he rounded the corner, and headed to the Inn at the end of the road...
Before he got there, he turned and smiled at the young maid 'Well, Im sure your friend and yourself are quite busy, by the look of those packages. Its lucky I came by then.' he said, trying to cheer her up.
