Sherwood Smith Quote
The others conversed little, and at the end of the meal I looked up, saw the unmistakable marks of fever in their faces. Branaric grinned. What a trio we make! Look at us.Annoyance flared anew. Glaring at him, I said hoarsely, Look at yourself. I’d rather spare myself the nightmare, which would affright even a half-sighted gargoyle.Bran gaped at me in surprise, then laughed. Just keep that temper sharp. You’ll need it, for we may be on the march tomorrow.Oh, good, I croaked with as much enthusiasm as I could muster.It sounded about as false as it felt, and Bran laughed again; but before he could say anything, the Marquis suggested that we all retire, for the morrow promised to be a long day.
