"What?" Reynard replied.

"Enough. Was it enough?"

"It was."

"You wanted both sides then?" Cytheria asked. "You made your pact with us, the reasons, the fact, and we believed them. And then you had to go and make sure that someone would still attend. Would keep watched at the specified time."

"This is melodrama, and it doesn't befit the four of us." Reynard answered.

Cytheria cursed and took a jug of wine from Reynard. She gripped the stopper between her teeth and then pulled it loose from the jug. She spit the stopper into the burning fire and then took long drink.

"You know those are reusable right? we could have..."

"What would you have done if Perun hadn't shown up." Kywn asked, interrupting Reynard.

"Look Kywn I don't know. I don't know why the two of you are so upset about this. I didn't do anything I went and watched our brother go to the meeting place. I wanted to see if he would still go, given everything that had happened."

"You would have gone in." Kywn said with satisfaction. She got up and began to prepare the stew.
