“They were going to kill me…” she said. “…but Steffen saved me…”
The men all looked to Steffen with a new respect, who stood loyally by her side, bowing his head.
“What I did was too little and too late,” he replied humbly. “I was one man against many.”
“Even so, you saved our sister, and for that we shall always be in your debt,” Kendrick said.
Steffen shook his head.
“I owe her a far greater debt,” he responded.

Kendrick menggenggam tangannya lebih erat.
"Mereka akan membunuhku ...," katanya. "... tapi Steffen menyelamatkanku ..."
Semua pria memandang Steffen dengan rasa hormat baru, yang berdiri dengan loyal di sisinya, menundukkan kepalanya.

"Meski begitu, kau menyelamatkan saudari kita, dan untuk itu kita akan selalu berhutang padamu," kata Kendrick.
Steffen menggelengkan kepalanya.
"Aku berhutang budi padanya yang jauh lebih besar," jawabnya.
