The guard froze, his face draining of color as he snapped into a rigid, trembling salute.Sir Joran Croft stepped out of the shadows of the arched colonnade. He was a vision of midnight-blue wool and silver lace, his spine as straight as the blade at his hip. He didn't look at his soldier. He didn't look at the cowering merchant.
