"Although... the paths of Maeve's fields got a fresh layer of packed gravel not long before she sent me away.  We might be able to avoid --some-- road travel.  But first we have to get close enough."<br/><br/>He scowled as he drove.  His instincts told him to charge (or drive, in this case) right in... but his training told him to take the back way.<br/><br/>His right arm twitched again.
