ELENNA SAID, AS Lindon got the boat ready. “No,” Tom told her. “Not this time. I couldn’t have freed Sepron without you. But defeating Zepha and finding the helmet is something I have to do on my own.” Elenna bit her lip, then nodded, understanding. Tom unfastened his scabbard and handed it to her. “You might need this,” he said. “And my shield is tied to Storm’s saddle. The people here are desperate; they might be dangerous. And you never know what Malvel might do.” Elenna hesitated. “But won’t you need your sword and shield?” she asked. Tom knew he would be vulnerable without them — but there was no way he was leaving Elenna with just her bow and quiver of arrows. He’d have to rely on his wits. He took Elenna’s hand and wrapped her fingers around the hilt of his sword. “I’ll be fine,” he told her. “I’ll stay with Calum and his father,” she said. “I’ve nothing to fear from them. But, Tom, be careful. Remember what Malvel said about Zepha.”
