ELIZA (takes one of Galadria's robes and drapes Roxanne's form.) "No, then, my Lady, we are fit to rejoin your brother." (She looks admiringly upon her new friend. Her dark hair contrasts with her prison pallor and the remnant of a few freckles that bespeak long-ago outdoor activity. There is a bruise on her left cheek that is fading to yellow, but that is the only outward sign of her recent ill-treatment. Roxanne's eyes are blue, blue, with not a hint of ice in them, rather soft and merry. She marvels that she was able to keep her sense of humor thoughout her long ordeal. Roxanne notices her concerned look and chuckles, puts her arm through hers, and they stroll back to the campsite.)
