Maud is in deep trouble. Pumori and her other captors are very angry with her. Things get worse when Cailida arrives and starts acting very weird ... almost like possessed.

Pumori belongs to kanyikoÂ
All the others belong to me.
Also a word of thanks to Kanyiko for some preliminary feedback.

Previous chapter: Falco's Reign - Part 57“Do you think they will be following us? I mean, isn’t it logical they would assume we all go back to Erin or to my city, Woodburg?”
“I hope not!” Maud replied rather worried. “That would mean I set up my own son as a decoy.”
“Your son is following the safest route, my lady,” Ruadi said. “If they ride without delay, they should have enough of a head start to get back to Erin and Defalin safely. It’s we who are facing the real danger.”
“But why would they assume …”
“Don’t be a fool, Sorenson,” Ruadi snapped. “When we left, that black devil on his flying demon was up in the air. He wasn’t just enjoying the view.

She was only ten. His oldest boy and daughter where about Falco’s age. The boy a little older. The other three were somewhere in between. What would happen to them and his beloved wife Olivia, if Maud decided to take the siege a bit more serious and attack for real. Death? Exile? Slavery?

Ah, are Raudi and Pumori going to become friends?  Maybe not anytime soon!

A powerful sorceress at work?  An agent of Loki?  Trying to corrupt Falco even through his victory?

Maud's fallen hard!  This sorceress has worse in mind for her than anything Pumori would dream up.  Worse, Pumori has now aroused the wrath of the sorceress as well.  A good thing that Pumori isn't one for following orders.

Of course, she's had that stage of her life already?
