"i don't know," he said. "did you leave it in your mouth? it's the only place i can think of that's big enough." keyn laughed; something got stuck in his throat half way, and he coughed for breath. "i can see you're good to go,â tablin observed as keyn struggled to clear his throat. âgo get your horse yourself before i take the job and leave you to rot in the flowing barrel."
