   Without waiting to see if Yarno obeyed察Ryld whirled toward Halisstra and grabbed her arm察forcing the horn away from her lips。
   Yarno stood panting a moment察glancing between Ryld and Halisstra。 Then´with one final snarl at the priestess´he leaped away into the bushes。
   Halisstra yanked her arm out of Ryld's grasp and glared at him。 Behind the glare was a hint of distrust。
   ;You knew that boy was a 。。。 an animal。。。 thing。;
   ;Yarno is harmless察─Ryld said察returning Splitter to its sheath。
   ;He's a monster。 Eilistraee has manded us to clear this wood of vermin like him。;
   Ryld winced。
   ;He's a boy察─he sighed。 ;Just a boy。;
   Halisstra shook her head察not understanding。
   ;Then why do you care if he lives or dies拭─she asked。
   Ryld opened his mouth察trying to find the words。
   ;Because he 。 。 。; the weapons master fumbled察confused himself。 ;He reminds me of myself at that age。;
   ;How is that possible拭You're a drow察and he's 。。。; Halisstra paused察uncertain what to call the boy。
   ;He's a 'werewolf' ; Ryld said察supplying her with the word。 ;And hunted。 And frightened。 Just like I was察once。;
   For a heartbeat or two察Halisstra stared into his eyes察and Ryld thought she had understood。 Then she lifted her horn。
   ;He may look like a boy察but he's a monster察─she said firmly。
   ;And you're a First Daughter察─Ryld replied察grabbing Halisstra's hand。 ;Always one of the hunters´never one of the hunted。 You never had to survive in the Stenchstreets。;
   Halisstra paused察and Ryld realized she might not know exactly what the Stenchstreets was。
   ;But you're a noble drow too察─she said。 ;Aren't you拭
   ;I have no House察─Ryld answered。 ;I never have。;
   He sighed察wondering what he was doing。 Was he really choosing to stand against Halisstra´the woman he loved´for the sake of a boy he'd only just met。 For a werewolf拭What kind of drow was he
   The kind who remembered what it was like to be a small boy and frightened。
   Ryld let go of Halisstra's hand。
   ;Summon the hunt then察if you must察─he told her。 ;But know that察if you do察I'm leaving。;
   Halisstra's mouth gaped。
   ;You're asking me to choose between you察─she said察 and my sacred duty to the goddess。;
   ;I'm asking you to choose between what is wrong and what is right。;
   ;Strange words察ing from the mouth of a drow。; She stared off into the moonlit forest察hefting the horn in her hand。 Then察slowly察she lowered it。
   Relieved察Ryld took Halisstra's hand and bowed low over it察brushing the back of it with his lips。
   ;Thank you察─he said。
   Halisstra yanked her hand free´and for a terrible moment Ryld thought he was going to be chastised´but instead Halisstra lifted his chin and kissed him fiercely。 She wrapped her arms around him察pulling him close。
   Closing his eyes察Ryld felt her lips brush his ear´and heard a whisper so faint he was certain it hadn't been meant for him。
   ;Eilistraee察forgive me。 I love him。;
   Then察taking him by the hand察she led him to the ancient ruin the priestesses had set aside as their shelter。
   As soon as they were inside察she kissed him again。 Her lips pressed into his with a fierceness uncharacteristic of her。 They had kissed before察it was true察but not like that。 All she had permitted him察before that night察were brief察almost chaste brushes of his lips against hers。 Obedient male that he was察he had not dared ask for more。 Bur that kiss 。 。 。 that was the kind of kiss his fantasies had been filled with。 Eagerly察he returned it察barely keeping in check the hard察insistent heat that was threatening to overwhelm him。
   ;I want you察─Halisstra said察breaking away from the kiss just long enough to gasp out the words。 ;I want to take you。 Here。 Now。;
   At these words察Ryld felt self´control slide pletely from his grasp。 Breathing rapidly´where had his warrior's training fled to拭he slid Splitter from his back and tossed the greatsword aside察then rapidly began shucking his armor。
   Halisstra was stripping off her own armor and clothing察then she was kissing him again察one hand pressing against the back of his head察the other snaking tight around his waist察making the process of undressing even more difficult。 For one panicked moment察Ryld had a vision of himself as a fly察caught in a spider's web。 Halisstra's arms were tight around him察pulling him closer察her mouth devouring him。 Her teeth bit passionately into his neck察then his chest察then the hard muscle of his stomach察and onward。
   For several long察dizzy moments Ryld flung his head back and stared sightlessly at the sagging ceiling of the ruin。 Dimly he was aware of the rough floor rushing up to meet his back察of a corner of his vambrace digging with blissful pain into his shoulder。
   Halisstra was on top of him。 For just a moment察her hair seemed streaked with silver as she tossed it back behind her shoulders察and Ryld was reminded of the woman who had appeared to him in the belladonna´induced fever dream。 Sparkles of moonlight rushed down and exploded into his mind察obliterating everything else。
   Much later察Halisstra touched his shoulder and whispered察 Ryld 拭Are you in Reverie拭I wanted to speak to you about something。;
   Ryld opened his eyes。 He could tell by Halisstra's tone that he wasn't going to like whatever it was she was about to say。 She sounded formal and firm察her tone reminiscent of the way a priestesses would address a male。 He braced himself察waiting for the whiplike reprimand that must soon e。 She must have spotted him earlier察spying on the sacred song and dance察and she was going to chastise him for it。
   ;I'm going back to the Underdark察─she told him。 ;I'm going to find Quenthel Baenre and the others and rejoin their quest。;
   Startled´but not showing it察in case it was a test´he stared deep into her eyes。 Her face察like his own察was perfectly neutral。 No察not pletely。 Something shone in her eyes´something more than reflected starlight。 An echo of the passion they'd shared。
   ;Why拭─he asked。
   Halisstra visibly relaxed。
   ;Uluyara has asked me to go back there。 Eilistraee's priestesses need to know if Lolth truly is dead。 The information is vital to their cause´and I'm the only one who can obtain it for them。;
   Ryld nodded。 The warrior part of his mind acknowledged the wisdom of Uluyara's mand。 Halisstra would make an excellent spy。 Moreover察she was merely a foot soldier in Eilistraee's order。 If Quenthel killed her察she would barely be missed。 The traitor priestesses' war against Lolth would continue with barely a ripple。 Deep inside察however察he boiled with anger at Uluyara's willingness to sacrifice Halisstra。
   ;I'm not asking you to e with me察─Halisstra said。
   Realizing that he had let his anger show´and that Halisstra had misread it´Ryld said what was on his mind。
   ;One tiny slip察and Quenthel will kill you察as fast as a striking serpent。;
   ;That's something I'm willing to risk。;
   ;I'm not察─he said。 ;That's why I'm going to e with you。;
   Halisstra touched his cheek。
   ;Thank you察─she whispered。
   
   Later still察when Ryld had indeed slipped into Reverie察Halisstra stared at him。 He sat cross´legged察his eyes closed。 His hands were crossed on the scabbarded blade of Splitter察but otherwise he looked like a vanquished warrior察his armor strewn about him and his weapons cast aside。
   Sighing察Halisstra leaned back against a wall of the ruin and settled into Reverie herself。 Her muscles were already loose and relaxed察and so it took but a moment for the familiar wash of memories to claim her。
   She drifted with them察observing with detachment as her mind skipped from one to the next察like a stone skipping on water。 Memories of the first day of her service in the temple of House Melarn and her instructors caning her palms until they bled after she mispronounced the words of the daily prayer。 And of the satisfaction Halisstra had felt the next day察when she was called to lead the prayer´and did so with a precision that earned a brief smile from the priestess wh
