"Well, I suppose my court knows me pretty well," Stone has to agree. "Come on. Let us in, Grain, before I knock you off the platform. I'll take him straight to the mentors to test him out, if that'll make you all feel better."
Grain doesn't honestly have the rank, or the age, to stand up to Stone, so after a moment of looking hesitant, he steps aside. One of the other Arbora behind him darts inside, ahead of Stone and Gale, presumably to warn someone, or maybe get Bone, who is older and wiser and knows better what to do when a line-grandfather gets pushy.
Because Stone is getting pushy. He's got Gale's wrist again, and if Gale doesn't follow, he'll get pulled in his wake. "That's Plum, that's Gold, that's Fall. There's a couple hundred of us, you'll get scents in your brain before names, probably," he tells Gale, pointing to the Arbora as they pass.
