Khorvayne rested her chin on the back of a hand, eyes half-lidded, drinking in the flattery with an easy receptiveness. No coyness, no reticence. She enjoyed it and made this clear to be known.
Dauner downplayed the danger, as was his wont, and Kristen by now had surmised such an answer from him. His confidence, even its attending eagerness, was a reassurance certainly. What lay ahead was their most perilous task, the culmination of their efforts. Titus, if his ability matched even half of his grandiose talk, would be a foe stronger yet than packs of Desecrators, Naya, or the Wraith. Dauner's presence shored up the strength of Kristen's convictions, providing that tangible edge to see justice for the slain delivered.
His flirtatious remark however, the extent of what said tongue might be adept at, went over Kristen's head. "A sharp wit to match a sharp sword."
But not over Khorvayne's. She shifted that hand from beneath her chin to cover her spreading smile. "The bright summer days of youth are a joy to behold."
"And at what might you be getting?"
"I am not the only one who enjoys speaking through implication." And the sorceress winked at Dauner.
Kristen huffed. "Regardless, we must assess where Titus is to be found within Ashol. Aionus help us if he has somehow ingratiated himself with the nobility of the city."
Dauner
