Ursula had disregarded her usual caution to leap, with Bright Killer shining, from her own horse over on to Dan’s. She needed to touch him to be sure that he did still live. Dan was relieved beyond measure to see her. She clung to his back as they rode. Her unfamiliar touch and her profound joy at finding him shook him a little. He hadn’t realised that Ursula’s feelings ran so deep – so little showed on the outside. He wanted to tell her about Taliesin, and about his own new power, his determination not to kill any more, but riding like the wildest of wild Combrogi for Camulodunum was probably not the time. Instead, he savoured her happiness and his own – pure and unsullied for the duration of the ride. Bedewyr welcomed Petronax home and did his best not to show his amusement that the proud veteran had been captured by a woman. Dan sent the other men Bedewyr had chosen to find Larcius and Bryn. The summons from Duke Arturus came almost at once, before Dan had done little more than outline what had happened to him and sketch in Taliesin’s role.
