For some moments, Arran remained silent, trying to get his head around the task that lay before him. Finally, he repeated, "You want me to spy on the Hunters."
"I do," Brightblade said once more. "The Valley is in desperate need of information, and nobody in the Valley is better suited to the task of getting it than you."
"You told me the Valley has sent other spies," Arran said, brow creased in a deep frown. "I assume these were among the Valley's best scouts — Masters, if not stronger. Did any of them return?"
"Some," Brightblade said. "But only those who didn't stray far into the Hunters' lands. You, however, will venture deep into their lands — further than any mages before you."
