The morale boost on its own was worth it, but the people who usually came to see him to complain about this or that or the weather was also markedly lower.

That meant that when Jigano was eventually invited in to sit with him (same ante-room, same seats, same offer of mulled wine or cider), the Warden was in reasonably high spirits.

"Good morning," he greeted. "It is good to see you returned in one piece from Whitebrim."
