While Alistair attended to some routine matters, Dame Brionna pulled Kit aside.  “Alistair’s conduct with Princess Mirabelle was disgraceful, and he needs to be taught a lesson about that, but with the peril he faces through the duel, perhaps this is not the best time for it.” Kit looked at Dame Brionna like she was insane.  “You’re saying that maybe I should make up with him because he might die?  Thanks, I figured that out on my own.” “It’s just… he’ll be very afraid.” “He’s not the only one who’s terrified about it,”  Kit snapped at Dame Brionna, who looked abashed at not having thought enough about Kit’s feelings.  “And if there’s even a chance that he might die… I haven’t forgiven him for what he did, but I’m not going to give up what could be our last days together either.” Dame Brionna considered suggesting they would be reunited in the Heavens, but thought better of it.  “I’m sorry.  I just wanted to make sure you didn’t do something you would regret.” “I understand, and thanks.”</blockquote>
