Jeff's pale cheeks colored instantly with mixed embarassment and anger. "I, born a Cheysuli? First you brutally capture me, now you curse my birth with such a wish? You profess to have no cruel devices on me, but your conduct says otherwise." He folded his arms tightly and glowered at his toes.
Gwenneth looked up at him lovingly, and her mindlink carried the sound of laughter. ::Looks can be deceiving,:: she said happily. ::He is touched, I can tell, and wonders at your politeness. But, of course, he's not about to let you know it! You have an excellent plan, my friends. I only wish I could do more to help.::
Jeff sniffed despondently. Oh, to see the white walls of my city! he lamented privately. I wish no more to be tormented by these strange beasts who speak one thing and act another. Why does he act so kindly towards me? What good can it possibly do him to gain my confidence? He set his jaw firmly, and stolidly avoided the glittering yellow and blue eyes of his captors. Well, they won't get me so easily. I'm on to them.
There was a long moment of silence, and then Jeff spoke up quietly, still glaring at his feet.
"What is this that you call the 'firstborn'?" he asked in a grudging tone.
