Brother Aldus re-enters Inric's chamber, ushering in Cyrward and another young man. "Wil, Cyrward, this is Inric, a scholar of the Seers," he says. "A scholar?!" Cyrward looks dismayed, Wil intrigued. "Inric, this is Wil of Amis and his cousin Cyrward," Aldus says, ignoring Cyrward's protest. "It is Wil who found you by the Ithien." "Thank you for your help," Inric says. "I am indebted to you." "Oh, um, you're welcome." Wil comes forward with a shy grin. "I -" "You can still fight, can't you?" Cyrward interrupts, pushing past Wil. "Use magic to help us against the Siguri?"
