Chapter 10: The Satchel
Pip spread the papers across the bed in the loft.
She was still in her muddy cloak with her red plaits coming down.
"I rode the mail coach half the night," she said. "I stole these from the Chancellor's clerk."
"He keeps a locked drawer, and he keeps the key in his boot."
"Pip, you could hang for this."
"I'm a kitchen maid. They'd only transport me."
Lucan sat on the edge of the bed and picked up the first page.
It was a letter, creased and re-folded, on heavy paper with a foreign seal.
"Karsten," he said.
"The envoy's reply," Pip said. "Read the date."
He read it.
His face went still.
"It's dated three weeks before Choosing Night," he said.
"It says the Council has agreed to marry Princess Ilse of Karsten to the crown prince of Halvery."
"It awaits only the formality of the list."
"The formality," I said.
"Gresham planned to marry me to a foreign princess before I ever stood in that hall."
