Vortigern... I don't know what I can do to help you but tell me what you want... You don't want the baby, you don't want to settle down and have a family, do you? Even if you got the pardon, that is not the life you would choose.

Share me? What do you mean share me? You are not making sense. Maybe you should drink less wine.

If you help us, I will talk to Sir Robert Pearl and Lord Karn and try to get you pardoned. Then you can just get on with your life, far away from the mire. Good men like Kalvos, Elios and Drayger will be killed if you do not help and I do not trust Keeler's word. He will use you then turn on you but I will always be your friend, always protect you. I care what happens to you, you know that.

I'll drink as much wine.....

*Swigs some more*.

As I like....

Maybe I'll help you Princess, if after the baby is born you give me one more night..... Together again... Like... Before...

*Smiles*.

You're not interested in helping me... No... I see that.... I don't trust Karn..... He's locked me up before.... Before that..... Well, no matter...

*Chuckles*.

Move from the mire? This is my home.... Yeah... Suit you and him just fine... But that's...

*Shakes his head*.

No deal..... Robert Pearl? He wants me swinging on a rope too. Even if you got them to agree, they'd turn on me after I get you the list.... And I'd have to risk my neck to get it for you....

*Drinks more wine*.

Your idea of good men is different from mine.... I don't need your protection.... I can look after myself... My lady....

Why do they hate you so much? I won't let them turn on you. Haven't I always helped you? Fought by your side when the militia tried to lynch you, nursed you back to health from dragon burns? Why do you think I wouldn't help. I am probably the one person in Grimney who does care about you!

I can't spend the night with you once the baby is born as I am marrying Kalvos and human marriages do not permit it. You might be able to share me but he cannot.

Anyway... I guess you won't help me... So...

*She kisses Vortigern on the cheek.*
L
I guess this is goodbye. We are on opposite sides so who knows, maybe the next time you see me you will be trampling over my bloodied corpse with Keeler. I wish you joy.

*Tears form in her eyes as she turns to go.*

I will miss you.

You just wait princess....

*Grabs her arm and swings her around*.

I was once an Elite knight, but I deserted... I had my reasons... They're mine.... Mine to keep....

*Drinks down the last drop of wine and tosses the bottle away*.

I took up with the Militia.... But their methods....

*Shakes his head*.

Were even worse..... So.... Now I'm hunted....

*Nods grimly and smiles*.

Yes.... You saved me... But saved me for what? To become... I don't know...

I love you with a passion Philomena.... You know that.... And I'm not willing to give you up.... Whether you want that or not my Lady princess.....

Love is worth one night together..... As a man.... You know I'm better than Kalvos... He's a dreamer, but he hasn't got the killer instinct that Keeler has... He's just a boy... A boy in a man's land....

*He pulls the mermaid towards him and kisses her on the lips, Vortigern steps back winks, smiles and mounts his horse*.

You always will be beautiful.... I'll be near, watching out for you.... You're protected this night.... But that's...

Shakes his head and sighs*.

That means little to an immortal... You won't see me.... I'll think on what you said.... Take care my lady... Until we meet again....

*Shakes the horse's reins ferociously and gallops away into the night*.

*Philomena arrives in her kelpie. It is quiet but she can feel eyes watching her in the darkness.*

Vortigern? Vortigern is that you? I heard you were attacked by knights and others by Old Man Death.. Are you here? Are you hurt. Is your sister all right?

*She waits, clutching her trident firmly and still mounted on her kelpie.*

Vort?

*Philomena is lying motionless in a pool of moonlight. The kelpie nuzzles her gently.*

*Kalvos appears out of the light*.

Philomena! What's happened.

*He kneels down beside her and cradles her head*.
