Farewell even to our Scottish name, so famed in martial story...

Another pivotal set of chapters. It's all coming together now...

Next week we'll read Part IV chapters 5 and 6.

Something that tgarnsl mentioned to me, but which she hasn't popped in to say yet: evidence for Keith's faceblindness continues in this chapter: on entering the cell, he claims hardly to be able to recognize Ewen with his beard. But how extensive could that beard be? He saw Ewen only a week ago!

It is a very good thing Neil and Lachlan shaved Ewen at the schieling -- this novel would have ended very prematurely otherwise!

Oh, yes, that's true!
