Description

Excerpt:
"One day after he'd checked one of their two squads of convicts, Kel took him for a ride outside the walls. She had watched the signs of Neal's blooming temper and knew he needed a break. If he was going to explode, she wanted him outside, far from the hearing of anyone else.

"There's no excuse for it, none at all," he yelled, green eyes blazing, once they were on the far side of the river. "Yes, they're criminals, but they're supposed to be soldiers now. You don't send a man with a hole in his heart into battle! You might as well execute him and have done with it!"

Kel listened and kept Neal talking until he calmed down."

- Lady Knight

wish I could've been more creative with the perspective but I was more interested in capturing Neal's expression at the scene :)

This is one of my favorite scenes in that book. I wish I liked the voice actor for the audiobook, but I really can't stand the way she does Neal. Not enough emotion.
