The Circle

The Circle is the ninth episode of The Broadswords.

Summary

Synopsis We return to the moment that Mepris was pulled away from the crowd by the hathryn to see Yllairies, feeling left behind suddenly. She decides to go have a bath to relax. She thoughtfully investigates her new ring and while doing so sees a vision in the steam of the bath. A long-necked flying beast, a sandy pyramid, with the faint shape of three women standing at its base.

Eventually she finishes her bath and heads to the inn for dinner. (Yllairies feels so sensitive about being abandoned by her friends) Seilaf directs her to the hall for dinner, though Yllairies expresses disinterest. Seilaf says he can put somethig together for her to take in her rooms.

Mepris asks the hathryn more about the stag man that she met. The hathryn is affronted that Mepris has been chosen despite knowing nothing. She explains more about him. After this Mepris takes her leave, not before offering her hand to the hathryn who is bemused at this outsider's boldness and disregard for etiquette.

She heads back to the inn and finds Yllairies.
