"Yes , Adam?" He looks worried

"I.... help?"

"Certainly, Adam. Now tell me what the problem is? So I CAN help"

"I don't know what I'm seeing." A deep breath.

"Is..... is it you?" He reaches out to touch the elder satyr.

"Seeing?" Honoria looks surprised

The satyr lets Adam touch his face, his horns "Yes, it's me. Lad. Remember, I taught you some of the fancy french terms for sword play and fencing"

"Please?"

Almost bereft, begging.

"He won't say WHAT he wants us to do or what's the problem" Dame Honoria says "He looks at me like I"m a monster"

"What do you see when you look at her, lad? " Bachdion says

"I don't want to. Sorry." He burrows in close to Sir Bachdion.

"Lad, a Fiona has to be brave" But he gets a hug "You can't be afraid of the truth."

"Ok... ok. Yes, ok......"

"What is true, Sir?" whispered.

"I know I don't... know. Please?"

"Help me."

"I'm trying Adam, but you're not giving me much to help with. " He takes a breath "But I know there are good things in this world worth fighting for. I know that love is the strongest power in the universe. I know that loyal friends are worth more than gold. I know that sweet memories and wistful regrets can often be the same. "

"Would it help if I left?" Honoria asks behind them

Adam mutters something, then nuzzles Bachdion.

"Perhaps, Dame Honoria. How did you come to meet him?"

"Shalimar was laid out with a flower.. and I got curious" She explains

Bachdion groans "I'll kill him." He looks at Adam "Adam... I think you've been fuddled to see her as hideous"

Adam is.... cuddling is kind, but his weapon is close.

Honoria blinks "Wait. I look UGLY right now? To him I mean?"

"Adam. Answer the question, please" Bachdion says "I can't read minds. I have a theory but I can't pursue it unless you answer"

"Sir?"

"Does Dame Honora look ugly to you now" He kens the boy for Bedlam as he's apprently ignoring what is siad..repeatedly

(Maybe?)

"I don't know."

"Well, look at her, tell me what you see" he says, a note of command

"I don't know....
