Eee! So happy to see this!

Very glad to post it! : ) I sat on it for a little while and changed some details.

I realize now that I didn't even mention Alison and the breaking of their betrothal in it. *facepalm* I mean, Keith knew Ewen was betrothed and maybe he should have reflected on that. But I guess maybe Ewen told him about it when they met at Fort Augustus...I suppose I can put that in the sequel.

Come to think of it, I never addressed that question either. But yeah, Ewen must've told him at Fort Augustus!
