Okay, we're back at the mead hall, from Rowenna's perspective.
Foley, do not take personally anything Rowenna thinks about your characters. She has gotten very cynical and critical in the past two years. It - uh - scares me how much she looks, in my mind's eye, like that eye-blinking Merisu 'smiley' ....
(but her eyes aren't that big nor does she have such a smoochy pout.)
...so you know what I'm talking about.
