As the last filthy remains of the troll burn, and the loot is divided,
Kieran collects the orc rage potions. One by one, he opens them,
pours the contents out, and tosses the empty vials onto the piled orc
corpses. When he is finished, he mounts Selbourn. "Shall we return
to Longsaddle?" Though he seems to say this to the group, he looks
only to Amrielle.

Exhaustion apparent on her face, Amrielle averts her eyes from
Kieran's. “Yes, we should be getting back. There might be more of
those dirty Grimbones about, and we shouldn’t be caught in the dark”.
Avoiding looking at Kieran, she mounts without another word and starts
Star off back towards town.

During the ride back, an uncomfortable silence hangs in the air.
Kieran rides next to Amrie but leaves some space. When they have a
small moment of privacy from the others, he looks to her and says, "I
notice you're not carrying your sword."

For a moment her eyes snap to his and a look of shock flashes over her
face as she instinctively reaches her hand over her shoulder to make
sure that her blade is still there. The look is replaced with one of
relief, but feeling the snake-like pommel of the Yuan-ti Scimitar
instead of the familiar curve of Fyrian's, Amrielle realizes what
Kieran is referring to and drops her gaze again. "I'm having it
improved." After riding along in silence for a few more moments, she
can't take it anymore. "Are you angry with me?" she asks as she
stares down at Star's bobbing head.

"I'm not angry, but will you think it unmanly of me to say that I'm...

Surprised, Amrie looks at Kieran with a puzzled expression. "Afraid?"

"Of losing you." He lets those words hang in the air before
continuing. "That poison will take everything, and leave nothing
behind except that which you hate."

Amrie seemed lost in thought between Kieran's last statements, but on
hearing his reference to the poison she responds in a tone of fierce
desperation, "Would you have me stand by and let those I hate steal
every last thing I care for?"

"No, I expect you to fight for those you care for!"
He moves close to her and looks deep into her eyes. "I'm afraid that
it won't be you who fights. It'll be monster who looks like you. You
want the strength to fight, and I would never deny you that." He
pauses before asking, "Do you trust me?"

For a long moment she stares back, as if searching his eyes for the
answer to his question. "Yes."

"I promise that I will give you that strength. Whatever magic,
whatever power I possess... I swear that you will have the strength to
fight for those you love. All I ask is that you never again allow
that poison to touch your lips."
