Chapter 15: What He Remembers

They put Casimir in a tent at the edge of the ford, with his wrists bound to the center pole.

Four clansmen stood outside the flap.

Torren did not like leaving her alone with him.

She made him stand just outside, close enough to hear a shout.

Then she let the flap fall and sat down on a camp stool, an arm's length from the man who had killed her.

Casimir's coat was soaked and his black hair hung in his eyes.

He still looked at her.

"How long have you remembered?" she asked.

"Since the morning of the dress fitting."

Her stomach dropped.

"The last thing I saw was the gallows at the Aldermere wall," he said. "A rope, and a crowd."

"Your father hanged me for losing his war."

"Then I opened my eyes in the doorway of that room, thirty years old, and there you were on a footstool."

Marit stared at him.

"You said I looked pale."

"You did. You looked like a woman who had come back from somewhere."
