The Enchanter's Library (6)

"A direction is not enough. Do you have a definite location?"

"It should be close," the vargvir rumbled.

It would be close. A Reeve was eye-catching, always noticed. They were the shield and fist of the Primar. People would noticed if one disappeared.

"Did you want Marses for something? Or should I not ask?" 

"We came for you."

Eh?

Did he get in trouble that he didn't know about in the last hour or so?

Pretty sure he didn't.

"Your requests have been fulfilled."

It turned out that Sigram, the male vargvir, had come with confirmation of a berth on the 'Ungoladvar' to Galbrane. Evlene, the female human, had the horses to replace the ones the bandits killed.

It was coincidence that they happened to reach the Library at the same time.

Good timing.

He wouldn't have gone after Marses, if they hadn't been there. He'd assume the older Reeve would have been ordered away.
