Gwyn smiled - using her most common expression, distant yet polite - and answered Elwyn's question:
"We are here to recover the Crimson Sword of Raffenshler III," Gwyn said, "It was stolen when Raffenshler died." Gwyn sat back in her saddle, musing on days gone by. "I was on border patrol - protecting innocent villagers and the like - when the news reached me. I had wanted to go with the rest of the guard to the Wars, but I thought it best to stay where I thought I was needed." Gwyn's face took on a wry smile, laughing inwardly at her own mistake, "But it seems that my thinking was incorrect."
