Gareth tried to conceal a hiccup before leaning back into his chair. "Maybe one to many, but that isn't the point here. Eira, your mother told me you're courting someone! How long has that been going on? And why am I not aware of it?"

"The blush on your cheeks tell a different story," Gareth pointed out. "Is this man the reason you have been wandering off into the forest? Do you even know him well? Is he from a noble family or is he just using you for power? These are thing I need to know Eira!"

Eira rose from her seat and tried hard not to look reticent, but she was failing miserably. "I don't think it is appropriate for me to be having this conversation with you of all people father."
