"So you plan to visit Linness?" Colle asks as she and Ylva walk through the library after the day's work. Well, she is walking. Ylva is, as usual, bouncing.
"Yes, there are lots of standing stones there," she says. "Arvid says it's a good place to pick up cargoes." She's stopped stammering over his name, which is good. "And he hasn't annoyed anyone there for a while." Colle hides a smile. And then they both come to an abrupt halt as Yllianvarar barrels round the corner at a run, only narrowly avoiding them.
"Yllianvarar! What -"
"I have to go home!" he shouts over his shoulder as he hurries away. "There's, uh, there's an assembly tomorrow!"
"Oh..." Colle watches him go, nonplussed.
