Chapter 14: The Freedom He Kept
Ysmerelle arrived at the Lysseroth house the next morning and found a footman laying a cushion on the floor of the long gallery.
A grape sat on top of it.
Another cushion lay a few strides farther down, and another grape sat on that one.
The cushions ran away from her in a line toward the far end, each with its own grape.
The last one disappeared into the doorway.
"Fifteen," Orivelle said, leaning against a window with her arms folded. "He started at dawn."
"Why?"
"Ask him. He's the one with the chalk."
Caerovan was on his knees at the third cushion, marking the floor beside it with a stub of chalk.
He wore his shirtsleeves rolled, with a length of string over one shoulder.
"Good morning," he said without getting up. "Don't step on the marks."
"What are the marks?"
"One hundred and eighty-eight centimetres each. That's my height. A dragon can fly no farther than that before he has to rest."
She looked down the gallery.
"You've made a road for yourself," she said.
"I've made a road for a very short journey," he said, "repeated fifteen times."
