( "A spot of, uh, girl trouble. Sort of." )
H'lex examines the leg gently. His tone is quite kind as he tells her, "Silly girl, you've hurt that: it's all swollen. You're going to have to show it to the vet when Alys gets back. We'll find you some numbweed salve so that it doesn't hurt as much." Phonth tells Dumath, << My rider says to tell your rider that someone will come and bring him and Cadeth's back, and fly back with you. You should all stay there until they reach you. Cadeth landed badly: she has hurt her leg. >> In the end, though, it's green Wisteth and her rider who are drafted in to help, and when H'lex looks appraisingly at the green, he tells Zelaney to stay with Cadeth while he and Phonth head out for Grant Island themselves. "There are two of them to bring back," he explains. When he and Phonth take off, they take the short-cut to Grant as soon as they're high enough to go Between, and they're soon landing in the park alongside Dumath. "So. What on Pern has been going on here?"
