Thornden shot Athanar a questioning look, but did not give the query voice.
"I do not know," he said, the words coming slowly. "I would say that she liked him, and perhaps she liked him very much, but I don't know."
He thought about the interactions between Kara and Erbrand. Kara was a very quiet and shy woman and didn't make her feelings clear to very many people, and Thornden was not one of the few to whom she did confide. He considered telling Athanar he'd have better luck asking lady Saeryn, but changed his mind to ask first,
"Why would that be the crucial point? What bearing would that have on the issue?"
