"We've been looking for you for hours. I've got your servants packing your things for you; we're going North tomorrow. With Shea. I want you on your very best behavior or you'll be hearing about it."

"Diplomatic mission. There's a war going on up there and we need to figure out what to do. And you and Lia need to learn about the culture up there; one of you might replace me one day!"

Rana snorted and rolled her eyes. Fat chance of that. “We all know you already wrote Lia into your will, not me—“ at least that was her guess. “So I don’t see why I need to be a part of this at all. I’ll just stay here and you two can go.” Make a fool of yourselves.

"Nope, you're going. Half your room is already packed. Are you brushed up on Upper Tongue?"

"You might as well be yelling into an empty plain," Cairbry said with a snort. "You're coming, and that's final."

“Why?” She whined. “Don’t you have enough war here to suit you? Why do you need to add another?”

Cairbry huffed. "I'm not doing this again. We aren't engaging directly. Just sending along supplies to whichever side we choose. You're to learn how to talk to people of other cultures, too. I'm sure you'll get along; they've got no decorum either."
