		Dirhem stood as she approached, and the man called Ceadmon regarded her as well, though not with respect.
		Dirhem, it seemed, was on the verge of saying something else, but before he could, Caradoc opened the door.
		Dirhem sighed: he had not wanted any of this to happen, but he could not let her go along her merry way, not when she knew all that she did.

		Then, throwing the bag over his shoulder, he was going away, when he dropped a dirhem; so he laid the bag off his back and stooped down to pick it up.
