'Come with us!' said Veritas to Rose, as they passed her on their way to the stairs. 'We are on our way to offer our assistance to the cook.'
'Yes, come below with us,' said Tulë smiling impishly at her, 'and we will introduce ourselves to each other.' He looked her up and down, his eyebrows raised, and a merry look in his eyes. 'You look as if you have a few tales to tell us.'
He bowed to her and bade her follow Veritas. 'This way, pretty lass, if you will!'
