"Very well," he grumbled, somewhat uncharitably.  Patience was not one of Horsom's virtues!Dain grimaced.  On one hand, he could understand Kregor's caution.  On the other hand, with the springtime sun ready to set in little less than four hours, what if whatever they had breached allowed something to come out?</blockquote>
