“Who else will care for them?” she replied.

Ely nodded.

“Here.” She knelt beside him, took out a bandage and wrapped it around his shoulder.

“It’s not really more than a graze. Your arm doesn’t seem to be broken,” she said. “But then again, it might be. Keep the wound clean. Maybe you’ll live. Maybe you’ll die anyway. Death comes to us all, it’s how you live that counts.”

She stood up and beckoned for the children to follow her. There was quite a crowd of them now. Ely thought he could see some taller figures lurking in the shadows just inside the door.

“We’re heading south,” she said. “Follow us or don’t. It’s your choice, Ely.”

Robin led the children away, leaving Ely alone. He sat for a while, just listening as terrified youthful murmurs turned to excited chatter which then faded into the distance.

He glanced down the road, then up at the Tower. He had a choice. He had to decide what to do next. But it wasn’t really any choice at all. He was the Constable. He had to keep the people safe.
