folks on-list have been going on and on and on about how lakewalkers don't 
know much about farmers.  it is equally true that farmers don't know about 
lakewalkers.

fawn knew that dag really wasn't eager to go home.  teh foot-dragging was 
really obvious.  she can assume from his lack of gossip aobut his mom and 
brother that he didn't get along well.  she could assume that when she moved 
into mother-in-law's tent, she'd be sniffed at, short-sheeted, given the 
ickyest jobs aorund teh tent, etc.  she might even have a suspicious that 
dag's mom didn't want her in the tent at all, and wonder where she'd stay.

there was no way for her to know, bec her patroller didn't tell her, that a 
patroller trying to marry a farmer would be banished with what he could 
carry and no more.  all his fine speech to her family aobut how he had yadda 
yadda yadda in camp stores, all written up tidy by the camp clerks, with 
letters of property to show other camp clerks, was complete garbage once he 
earned banishement.

when dag went on patrol, he knew he'd get paid.  when dag married fawn, he 
knew he was breaking the law.  he knew how -that- gets paid, adn he didn't 
warn his wife who was curious about everyhing and often came up with 
unexpected solutions.

bad dag.   bad, bad bad dag.  i want to wap him upside the head.  this was 
not supposed to be the regency type book where the hero tells the girl (not 
hte woman) not to worry her pretty little head.  feh.

don't offer to take fawn wading in water over her head without warning her. 
she can't swim!
