I smiled at her, trying to apologize for my poor company. 鄭 man cannot become
something his people have abhorred and feared for a thousand years and expect
them to be swayed instantly into acceptance by his charm and good manners.・

dragged the basket closer and carefully pulled apart a tangled clump of roots
and moist soil. Abomination, my people called me.
的致e been trying to decide how to thank you. Words seem so impossibly inadequate.
You致e saved my brother痴 reason・ｦ and our child痴 and our friends槽 but at such
cost to yourself・
My skin began to itch. I felt her eyes searching to see the demon that now lived
inside me, not an inborn element of my nature as were the demon aspects of her
brother Blaise and the child she fostered, but a separate conscious being with
voice and emotions and ideas of his own

about the future and my place in it.
Elinor could not know how well she repaid me for my deeds of the previous year.
Even as I shifted down the row and fixed my attention on my work, hoping to
escape her scrutiny, I heard the faint music of my solace from the far end of

The kindly rescuer nudged the boy, who clung to his neck. 敵ive a wave to your
