Junn: ...telling you. That's why she left! Couldn't stay in Falasan with 
that dishonour upon her.

Ulrith: Junn, do you have any proof of this?

Junn: It's common knowledge, man! Everyone in Anfalas knows it.

Ulrith: By "everyone", you mean those dreadful peasants you associate with?

Junn: They're not peasants!

Crip hears the end of the conversation between two of his men, as he 
walks outside, brandy in hand, to enjoy the evening air.

Crip: Now, now, what is all this chatter about today? Have people been 
double-crossing you again, Junn?

Junn: No, sir. Nothing, sir.

Crip: Come, now, it can't have been nothing, or there would have been 
silence out here. You were talking about a female leaving Falasan, I am 
sure I heard that much. Dame Ain, perhaps?

Ulrith: [quietly] Yes, sir.

Crip: And the dishonour you mentioned?

Silence.

Crip: [firmly] Junn?

Junn: Well, sir, she's expecting, isn't she, sir?

Crip: Expecting what? A delivery of cheese?

Ulrith: A young Tinsley, sir.

Crip: Well, well, that's the first I've heard of it. Now, I don't know 
where this idea has come from, but I'm sure there's no truth in it. I'm 
sure the two of you can find more stimulating conversation.

Crip walks off. Where these stories originate, he can't imagine. 
Although... not all rumours are untrue. And it would explain Ain's 
disappearance. And it would explain Sir Friedroch's lack of 
communication recently - better things on his mind, perhaps. Parenthood. 
Perhaps he will be going to Beluaterra soon too... interesting. Very 
interesting.
