"No, it's, rather impressive, you going at that age to war with your brothers..." Her face went to the dunes "I, find you very impressive... Myself? I must be rather pathetic, I'm always scared, always uncertain, afraid..."
He took her face in his hand and drew her to him quick, then gave her an equally quick kiss on her lips, which instantly had her mind off those thoughts.
"You snuck that in!" She said surprised.
