"How have you been?" Bjarte asks as he takes down his hood.
"Lonely, but not bad." Tove answers, taking the groceries from him.
"I am sorry you have to be here in this isolated place, but I want you to be safe."
"I know." She gives him a weak smile. "I think I just miss my little sister." Tove puts the food away. "How was the ride here?"
"Eventless. The Lions are all in the palace, and the royal guards are scarce these days." Tove is silent for a moment.
"Any news about Lady Siv?" She asks with a soft voice.
"No, but no news is good news. That means they have not found her yet." Bjarte hugs Tove from the back. "She is very tough, she will be alright."
"She will." Tove hugs him back.
