Thanks. I occasionally get dialogue and I definitely get vague ideas, it's descriptions that I find awkward.
What about if there's no explanation given and no sudden revelation. Elizabeth isn't saying anything and Peter and Neal have to put everything together simply by the evidence of her everyday life: She looks young, she disappeared and started a new life, and she carries a sword. (How did they not notice the sword?) They can harass each other about that as they come up with different possible explanations. By the end of the story, they should have a working theory of Elizabeth's situation that fits all of the available evidence. Whether it's true or not, well, that's something else entirely. (I grin evil-ly.)
