Re: aftermath of the battle
Barmak smiles and nods to Alyna, then as Dyanna addresses her, he leaves the women to their introductions. He leans over the side of the ship to cleanse his hands in the sea, then wipes his hands dry on his breeches. Once they have traded words, he says in Greek, "Miroslav has said that we shall treat you as a guest, and so it shall be. There shall be no searches of what is private to you, unless he orders otherwise." Though he speaks to Alyna, his last glance at Dyanna indicates he may be addressing her original suggestion as well.
Turning to Miroslav, he asks in Russian, "Mayhap we might afford the women what little privacy we may, that they might see to their needs?" He grins and adds, "And, thus, we, undistracted, to our needs?"
At the sound of Pyotr's plea, Barmak points to the burning brazier the crew used in their attack to ignite their arrows. "I think that should suffice for your physicking, Boy," he says, still speaking in the tongue of the Rus. "I do not know if any among us possess knowledge of the healing arts, but for what you suggest it sounds as though you shall require only men strong enough to hold Gultunga still while you apply the brand. Of that we should have great supply." He glances at Radvila meaningfully.
