There were bigger and more beautiful roses farther ahead and the courier trotted to examine them. It was too late to change his mind and while he was here he might as well grab the best flowers he could find for his offering, right? Coming to the fork in the path he chewed his lip fiercely and peered down both paths before decisively choosing the right-hand one and trotting down it.
Tal chooses right!"
