Then he catches a glimpse of Beatrix's crenulated helm and his effervescent mind flashes to the conversation they had but yesterday at the Half and Human, upon their very first meeting!"For- For an example, we have of late been considering finding a place in which to ground our Company, a building to call our own...? And - this is just a thought, honoured councilors, but if such new-built fortification happened to stand as manned bulwark atop possible connections with whatever rests below, say a certain well of troublesome memory, that would be to the good of all concerned, would it not? Reassurance for all that know AND all that but suspect..." Even if their own sleep will have to perforce suffer...But all that may be wholly premature, granted, seeing as neither Stellan nor Beatrix has yet spoken for or against this theoretical diplomatic mission they might be embarking on (or its dark, underground pendant)...His emerald gaze shifts back their way.</blockquote>
