Usage examples of ager.

The youth nodded a greeting and Ager returned the favor, noting there were plenty of vacant tables around.

Pirem handed over a coin before Ager could dig out any coppers from his purse.

They had reached the exit when Ager, struggling hard against his crookback, caught up with them.

Relief flooded through him when he saw the second assailant on the ground, Ager on top of him, blade sunk deep into his heart and lungs.

Leaving the blade in for fear of doing more damage, Kumul lifted Ager gently as if he weighed no more than a child.

The doctor did not move it, as Ager had been afraid he would do, but he retreated and talked to the other two again.

The giant gave a lopsided smile and held Ager by the shoulders, pinning him down.

Kumul barked, then glanced anxiously at Ager, guilty about raising his voice.

Without waiting for a reply, she went to Ager and peered at him closely.

He had lost friends before, and his friendship with Ager during the Slaver War largely had been largely professional, not personal.

That dark, wire-haired woman Kumul had found to measure up Ager and then sew and stitch the blue jerkin and pants was a miracle worker.

Ager shouted a command, and his own detachment of guards formed in front of the party and led the way down the Long Walk to the official dining room, a long space filled with the biggest table Ager had ever seen.

Seated between his countryman, Orkid Gravespear, and the Princess Areava, Ager thought he was a pleasant-looking youth with a quick smile and an open face.

The princess, for her part, seemed to enjoy the attention of the foreign prince, talking with him animatedly and occasionally even laughing softly, something Ager had never heard her do before.

For the first time in his life Lynan had a family, and for the first time in nearly twenty years Ager felt he had a home and companions with whom he could share it.
