Shield Eodwine and friends

Rand went down like a tree and lay still, except for his breathing.

"Good shot, Master Falco!" said Eodwine, wiping his brow, kneeling by the very sizable legs of Rand.

"Ruin of a good mug," Falco replied darkly, and hopped down from the table.

Garreth and Harreld blew out sighs of relief, and Garreth said, "He's a big 'un, no wager."

Before one could say 'I thought he was out', Rand reached up and grabbed Harreld's and Garreth's heads and smacked them together. The twins' eyes went up into their heads and they slumped overtop of the ruffian. With a bellow he pushed them aside and got to his feet, sending Eodwine stumbling back toward Falco, who caught him from catching his head against the table.

"Gudryn, welp, cmere!"

With a quick thanks to Falco, Eodwine jumped to his feet, drew his sword and raised it toward Rand. Now there was fire in the eyes of the Eorlinga.

"Gudryn has claimed me as father. To get her you must win through me, beast."
