"I've never actually been inside the walls. We would always just sell our catch outside the harbor. Have you?"
Quentyn watches as a bend in the river appears. He looks back to see if "Anna" notices.

Eliana had already reacted letting the boat start a lazy turn.
"How else should I escape from Isaac Dayne?" she asked sounding sufficiently bitter.

"Why are you running from the heir of Starfall?" A curious look crossed Quentyn's face.

"A number of reasons." she said. "Most beginning and ending with the fact that he is who he is."

The girl seemed to have more to her story. "Right, I've never actually met him. I take it from your demeanor that you have?"

"I have that unhappy 'honor'" She replied, then fell silent for a while. "Where do you come from?" She asked.

"From the river, Anna. My family has always lived on the Torentine, and we have always sold our catch in the markets."

"Sounds like a fun way of live." Eliana said with a smile. "Free and able to go wherever you wish."

"You'd think, but it is dreadfully boring."
Quentyn looked down at the water, then back at Anna. "What does your family do?"

"Steal from the poor and give to the rich." She answered.

Quentyn looked very confused. "Wait, what? You're not going to steal from us, right? We can barely make ends meet as it is!"

"Do you think that if I agreed with it I would have ran away?" she asked with a grim smile.

Quentyn visibly relaxes. "Ha, I guess not Anna. Still though, I'd appreciate it if you didn't steal anything. Well, I guess you could steal a fish, but I don't know why you would want to." The boy laughs at his own jest. Probably a bit too hard.

Eliana laughed lightly.
"I'm not planning to steal anything Quentyn." She said.

"Good. It's not like you'd be able to actually find something of value. The only thing worth a lick is this boat, and I think I would be more impressed than upset if you managed to steal it from us."
The boat was now out of the river, and was making the first curve around the border of the Reach and Dorne.
