"So in the regular world, oaths are just whatever - but in this one, they're magic. Like.. like how you said, trolls get stronger, or - I heard, there's one, if you break it you legit go blind..."

"Shit! That would SUCK" He states the obvious

"Right! So gotta be real sure if you take an oath. I guess that's why I'm not supposed to until April... but I wish I could now."

"I wouldn't rush it"

She chews on her lower lip. "I mean... I know. I get it. But... but Jaymes seems okay."

"And if he's Oathed, right? The troll thing."

"I guess. You know him better than I. Look, much as I hate to say it, none of you totally suck." He shrugs

"Well, thanks. You don't totally suck, either."

A shrug as they get close to the lodge where delicious smells are coming from

"Oooo, yeah, that's fresh cheddar bread - smell it?"

"Yeah...I want it"

"Let's see if it's snatchable" Hope springs eternal in his belly

(And End scene)
