Capítulo 119: Chapter 119

MEETING THE rest of the Old Ones was not quite as daunting as it had been back up at the caves. For one, Wil supposed, he was tired and sore and rather anxious, thinking the Brethren might be behind any bush or rock, and his attention was spread too thinly to concentrate on worrying about whether or not the Old Ones were judging him. For another, the altered circumstances lent them a normalcy Thorne, Siddell, and Marden seemed to have lacked. It probably helped that Dallin paused more or less impatiently to let them make their introductions while he had words with the commander of the Weardas who'd apparently escorted them and then whisked Wil off before the Old Ones could do much more than present more gifts.
