"Come along, my dewdrop, we mustn't tarry, as dinner awaits." Cleon grabbed her arm and set her firmly in her chair as he pulled the two nearest up for Neal and himself.
"So Kel," said Neal as the soup was brought in, "how has your summer been, beside the great hair disaster, of course."
"Just fine, Anders led the patrol out to eliminate four spidren hideouts, and we found a cliff- nest of 11 hurrocks."
"Good hunting," replied Neal, "I guess you were wondering why I'm here."
"Actually, yes," Kel admitted.
"Well, Duke Baird, my father wanted to talk to your mother about some Yamani healing techniques. I was dragged along because the cook didn't want me poking around in the kitchen while my father wasn't around to watch me."
Cleon broke in, "Your humble servant is here because his mother is going to her native country, west of here, and I asked to come along." He grinned, "As you know, my heart pines for you always."
Kel decided that she had had enough and told Neal to hold Cleon down while she tickled him.
