Quin hadn’t said anything during the conversation about Eodwine. He worked silently, trying to make heads and tails of the situation. Finally, he spoke, when Nydfara again suggested that Léof's words almost started a fight.

“I don’t think you’re being fair to the others,” he said to both Áforglaed and Nydfara. “You haven’t tried to look at it from their point of view. Léof wasn’t showing any disrespect when he said what he did this morning. I know some of you think so, but I don’t. I was surprised, but not because I thought he was being disrespectful.”

“That’s just ‘cause you’ve taken a liking to him,” Áforglaed said with something of a jeer.

“So?” Quin replied. “That doesn’t change anything. He’s never caused anybody any trouble, why do you think he’d start now?”

“I didn’t expect it. That’s just it. But he shouldn’t have said what he did.”

“Why not?” Quin replied sharply. He looked at Hilderinc for confirmation as he said, “What would you think if Athanar was replaced in the same manner than Eodwine was? You wouldn’t like it any more than these people have, and no one would call you mad if you pointed out the unjustness of it.”
