I've been able to convince the shy... bird-like servants to all me to look at their injuries and tend to them. In the course, two of them told me to beware of Julien.

I haven't bothered speaking with the man. What have any of you seen or noticed that would back up the servant's concerns? Such things aren't offered without reason.

[mashiara]

Surely we can ask one of the servants if it's allowed to send a message. If nothing else, that would be polite.

[bhaalyn]

We do owe our prince a debt of gratitude. Perhaps the clock can help us?

[mashiara]

Would you ask the clock? I can try with another of the servants.

[bhaalyn]

I don't mind doing so. I'll let you know if I've any luck, if you'll share with me too?

[mashiara]

No point in keeping it secret.

What's your name? Your true one, not the one used on these things. I'm Nynaeve.

[bhaalyn]

Apologies. I've never used one of these items and it's so easy to get singular-minded and forget one's manners.

My name is Deimos. It's my pleasure to meet you Nynaeve.

[mashiara]

We all forget our manners. Too easy to start speaking, not enough time spent on what we should say first.

( A pause, and: )

I'm as responsible for that lack as anyone. Well met, Deimos. I hope to speak with you again soon.
