His familiar, Morwin was in the sky overhead, pointing him toward the River Gate by way of the Hill Road. Titus rushed to follow, Dandin hot on his heals. A rider came thundering down the road from the direction of the gate, heading for the castle. It was the Duke's sister, Lady Morwen. Seeing Titus, she pulled her reins, and stopped for a moment to speak to him."Your uncle has ordered no-one in or out of the city, while goblins raid the cottages along the river!" she rolled her eyes, exasperated to the point that dared speak so of the Duke in front of his subjects, "He fears that this is the van of some invading army, and not just some raiding rabble. I blame Luc Sunbright, for giving us a lecture on the evils of Maglubiet."Her horse stomped sideways and she checked him before continuing, "It would be politically impertinent for me to disobey him, but you might get away with it. If you can find a handful of men to go with you, you could perhaps save some of our people, and stop our docks from being burnt.  I will try to convince him to send out the militia. At any rate, I must hurry at that task. Gods' speed!"She kicked and her horse leaped forward, kicking up dirt as she made a tight corner past Morninglow Tower and up the hill toward the castle.</blockquote>
