Chapter 2.The pair entered a dimly lit room to be assaulted by another dream, but this one was of heavily smoke, heady perfumes and male fantasy rather than an imitation nightmare.  The room was also soundproofed as they could hear nothing from the raucous noise behind them, only a light swaying music from a harp played by someone in some hidden corner of the scented, smokey room.  There was a glowing brazier in another corner that produced little light infused with the drugged and scented smoke.  A chandelier hanging from the celling holding stuttering candles provided more light but the edges of the vast room were still plunged into darkness.  Gaudy coloured silks covered the ceiling as gauzy buntings in different, fier

  Sigwulf woke suddenly at a noise from the horses and rolled into a crouching position, sword in hand, eyes narrowed, and heard a mocking laugh.“A little jumpy aren’t we,” Astrid mocked him as she stroked the small mare’s dish shaped face.  The small mare dubbed ‘Swift’ by Astrid, nudged the small young woman affectionately.Sigwulf noted with disappointment that the stern lines had returned to Astrid’s face.  However, her face did soften when she looked at the little horse.“What type of horse is that?  What’s her name?”  Sigwulf asked to cover his momentary embarrassment as he stood.Astrid shrugged.  “I hav
