In which a small but weary party makes their way toward Edinburgh, and amidst conversation by a veiled horseman and a young lady, differing views of loyalty and rebellion are delicately exchanged, revealing the tender and conflicting sentiments of those entangled in civil strife. Meanwhile, the insurgent camp near Hamilton is fraught with fear and discord, as leaders debate the prospects of peace and the formidable approach of the royal forces.
