Sensible Lady of Pesme Avanture


When Ywaine and ‘Secunda’ come to Pesme Avanture, the townspeople anger him with taunts and insults. At length a sensible elderly explains that they are only trying to scare him away for his own safety, and that their own safety non of them dare shelter him.

Although her courteous advice deters him no more than the other people’s taunts, he replies to her with courtesy matching her own before he, his damsel, and his lion proceed to the castle.
