This is a good place to sit. More than that, this is a good way to spend a meal, not alone but not expected to say anything at all.
It won't last forever. Even savoring every bite, the meal is humble enough. Even safe and snug in an understanding quiet, the fields are hardly so deserted that they won't be interrupted sooner or later, as more of the Strangers finish their work and begin trudging back toward home.
Still, a good silence is worth keeping track of. Horatio glances back over his shoulder for a moment, then nods questioningly in the direction he thinks he can see the Residence peeking above other distant roofs in Draega.
