Nethwador
Nethwador glanced from Bella to Liornung to Ędegard, and back to Bella, and fervently wished Taitheneb had been there. Anger sparked in Bella's eyes, because of something Raefindan had said. That didn't make sense. Raefindan was kind and good, from all that Nethwador had seen and all that the elves had told him. That Raefindan had angered Bella puzzled him deeply. He didn't want to dislike Raefindan.
Perhaps it was not what Raefindan had said-- perhaps it was what Liornung had said. But Liornung was even kinder than Raefindan.
Perhaps it was Ędegard who had angered Bella.
Perhaps.
He sat very still, and gazed at Bella, waiting, and watching, and wishing again and again that Taitheneb would return.
