Chapter 23: The Bridal Tower
The Sun House broke the seal on the bridal tower at sunset on the eve of the Feast.
I was standing at the bottom of it with a wine jar on my shoulder and a servant's hood over my hair.
"Head down," Eudora said. "Shoulders round. You walk like you own the floor."
"I've never carried anything in my life."
"I know, darling. It shows."
The Goddess of the Vintage blesses the bride's wine on the eve of every wedding on the Heights.
Nobody could refuse her the door.
Nobody looked twice at the girl carrying her jar.
Two Sun guards stood at the tower's foot.
Eudora patted the nearer one on the cheek and swept past him.
Halfway up, I heard something under my feet.
A dull knock, from below the floor we'd just crossed.
Then another.
Eudora stopped on the step above me.
"Rats," she said, without much hope.
"Rats don't knock."
The top room was round and bright, with lamps on every sill.
Four Sun House women were pinning a gown on a girl who stood on a stool in the middle of it.
Ivory silk, a high neck, a hundred pearl buttons down the back.
