Eric's room is neat and bare.
He hadn't been expecting to return.

He opens the door and lets Athelstan in. Then he switches on the bedside lamp and turns to look at him.

He smiles slightly.

"No doubt he thinks one favour isn't such a high price, for his father's safety."

Athelstan eyes him, amused.

"And would that be part of why you chose him?"

"Is she in danger during the day, then? More than other people?"

"Can they tell what she is, without being told? I suppose you mean they would send those who can walk in the sun to take her?"

Athelstan nods. "Since you couldn't simply warn him away from her, with his position so far above yours."

"Ah, yes, because after you killed his Consort, anything he could do to hurt you..."

"And it also made him believe you'd really offer her to him."

"...can you explain to her, now, that you never meant her to come to harm?"

"Worth a try", he says quietly, "at least."

"What is it?" he asks, still soft and trying to convey he won't push any further than that.

"You... don't want her only in bed?" he hazards, because surely sexual desire shouldn't be a problem.

That gets a wry laugh. Then, "Does her fairy side change her lifespan?"
