overheard in Val Royeaux

Man: Too good for him if you ask me
Woman: Rainier’s here if you wish to say as much to his face
Man: In the market? Who allows that animal to walk free?
Woman: Many Wardens have history. Where do you think they came from?
Man: I don’t know. We only ever saw them when they were saving us
Woman: No one wants to think about how the sausage is made
