   Summary

   "...My offer still stands, Ser Criston."
   "Offer?" 
   "Oldtown. With me. Should Tumbleton and war not be to your taste." He felt that same twinge of nearly tearful desperation as he turned to glance at Cole's profile in the bright dawn light. His throat burned with the need to be understood. "I know you dismissed it for servitude but it was not my intent --" 
   Cole interrupted with a soft "stop." He stayed in step with Gwayne, though, and then turned to look at him again. "We will bring our men to Tumbleton, find a place for them with your cousin. From there I do not know what the future could hold." 

   Criston Cole chooses Tumbleton over imminent death.
