(Whitemarch)

The children watch Praetor stalk out the door. Just before he leaves,  he hears a murmured conversation.

"I thought Knights were supposed to be kind and courteous at all times?  Isn't that the code of chevalry, or something?" Aegis says.

"Chivalry,  Aegis.  It's the code of chivalry." Aurum says. There is a quiet sadness in her voice. "And, yes.  They are."

There is silence for several moments. Aurum begins packing the treasure in small, manageable boxes.

"Um, Aurum, what are you doing? " Lucida asks.

"I am dividing this treasure to make it easier to carry."

"Why?"

Aurum's voice is almost too soft to hear. "Because it doesn't belong to us."

Silently,  the other children begin helping her.
