Joining in with everyone else to say that the way Ewen's physical ordeal and grief is balanced out by the unexpected acts of kindness from people who are technically enemies is one of the loveliest things about this section. It's possible, actually, this this whole section is responsible for my long-abiding love for narratives containing unexpected kindnesses from enemies.

It's really adding to the general theme of the book, isn't it—for all that Keith is so cynical about the world in general (and for all that his kindness and honour get him into such trouble with his own superiors), he's not alone in 'acting otherwise'. :)

Lassie! :D
