"I told you that you learned it well," Richard said.
"I told him that you taught it to me, that it was the call of the short-tailed pine hawk. Anson said that there wasn't any such bird as a short-tailed pine hawk. He said the call I used as a signal-the call you taught me-wa" a common wood pewee. Me, a Mord-Sith, using the call of a bird named a pewee. Imagine that."
They walked in silence for a moment.
"Am I in trouble?" Richard finally asked.
"Oh, yes," Cara answered.
Richard couldn't help smiling but he made sure the Mord-Sith didn't see it, nor. did Cara see Kahlan look back over her shoulder with the special smile she gave no other but him.
