"The horses are ready," said Ewin, who had come through the door, "and we have enough supplies to reach the East. We can go any moment. I think now."
"Not without me." Erendiz entered the barn with a shawl-wrapped bundle in his arms. Ewin nearly fell to his feet.
The sword of Uras was half out of its sheath; Seeing who it was, he pushed it back, looked at Abigial Ewin, patted his lips thoughtfully with his finger. The hood of Erendiz's dark brown cloak was pulled up. "Here's everything I need. Including food. And I won't be left behind." "This isn't a picnic trip, Erendiz," Ewin grumbled. Erendiz frowned when he saw her and fell silent.
"Thanks Ewin. I didn't know. "
"Anyway, you can't come with us. We don't go for fun. The black cavalry is after us." Ewin gave him an indulgent look. "Black Horseman!" Erendiz laughed in disbelief. "Ewin, I've decided to see a part of the world and you want to change my mind, but please don't tell old stories this way. "
"That's right," said Uras, "the black Horseman, and you don't come with us as a child."
"Enough," said the sage, cutting their conversation as sharp as a knife. "Elendiz, we don't have time for childish things. You're going to hide like everyone else." Elendiz swallowed and sat up before answering.
"After tonight they won't hide, and they don't know what to do if the Black Rider comes. I'll be a true Sky wizard even though I'm young. You've seen the signs, but I have no intention of standing here and dying. I want to die fighting wise." "Well," said the Wise one. moment later. "You can come with us." A confused expression appeared on Uras' face. "No, Wise!"
"Now the boy is part of it, Uras."
"Absurd!" replied Uras. "There is no reason for him to come, and every reason not to."
"There's a reason for that," said the sage calmly. "She's a part of it Uras." Ewin's old face showed nothing, but he nodded slowly.
"But Elendiz," said Uras, "the black rider will chase us. We won't be safe until we get to the East."
"Don't try to scare me," he said. "I'm going." His voice was determined.
"If you think it would be fun to be chased by the Black Rider," he began, but the Sage cut him off.
"We don't have time for this. We must finish our preparations as soon as possible.
"This will not be possible," the woman said to the crowd. Uras' sword was unsheathed this time, and he did not put it back while looking at the woman. "Karagöl no longer matters to me. I must go East and we have very few horses. The boy can ride with me. Although I usually travel alone, I have no objection to traveling together. "
Uras gave her a stern look. and Perrin fidgeted uneasily. As the woman came down the stairs, Uras said, "Will the woman come too?" The sage replied softly, "I won't stop him if he wants to go." "Sage," Ewin said, "we must go fast, and there is almost certainly great danger. The black cavalry is still out there. Are you sure you want to travel with us?"
The woman looked at him with a mocking smile. "If it's not too dangerous for the kid, it can't be too dangerous for me either." "Now," said the Sage. "Everybody Needs Horses"
"It will be difficult for everyone to find horses," replied Uras sourly. "We need strong and fast horses, horses that grew up in Karagöl."
"The Stables," said Tumaris, "we must get the horses in the stables" Ewin muttered under his breath, "The barns are not ours. We must acquire them from the surroundings of Karagöl," said Tumaris, but "It will take a long time to have them, I don't think there is any other option."
"Then it will have to be done," said the sage. "Uras, find eight horses in the stables tonight. You should get enough Karagol water for all of them. Quick, now! We've already lingered."
