The hallway streaks past in a smear of torchlight as you flee your tutor's wrath. You hit the first door with your shoulder, bursting through and leaning against it, lungs burning. Your eyes adjust. The chamber is dominated by a bed shrouded in forest-green silk. Voices murmur beyond the door—drawing nearer. You dive for the wardrobe, pressing yourself into the darkness just as the door opens.

"For what purpose," he asks, his voice as cool and sharp as a mountain stream, "are you sequestered in my wardrobe?"
