Co-Hanyana turned his weary gaze to the young woman. <You believe Coby innocent?>
She nodded. <I believe my cousin a good man. Any accusation against him is false.> She glanced out the window, casting her gaze farther than the garden, farther than the edge of the city itself, toward the distant shores beyond the horizon.
<Do you believe him safe?>
Gema was not one to lie, nor was she one to spread false hope. She was honest, sometimes to a fault, sometimes even when it hurt.
<No, Uncle, I donât.>
Co-Hanyana stiffened, swallowing hard, his fingers digging deeply into his arms.
<He has made enemies within our tribe, even if he did not intend to,> she went on. <They will not give up until they find him andâŚ> She didnât finish the thoughtâŚshe didnât have to.
