When they finally reach the village, and that inn, the next day a fight nearly breaks out. It's because there's only two rooms - Valdeualin insists he take the one with Gaius, while Estinien bunks with Severa. The innkeeper's wife finds it unseemly that Severa would bunk with a man who's clearly not her husband. Severa does not actually care. And Estinien...Estinien really wanted that shared bed.
It's Severa who actually rescues the entire situation, by getting Valdeulin so drunk over dinner he falls asleep barely after sunset. As she arrives to trade places with Gaius, she mutters to him as they pass, "Don't say I didn't do you any favors."
Estinien's waiting across the hallway, stripped of his armor and vibrating like a hive of bees.
