In the suffocating gloom of Saddler's castle, dust dances in the weak torchlight like suspended ash. The smell is ancient stone and the metallic tang of dried sweat.

His sharp blue eyes catch the firelight as he pushes a hand through his sweat-damp hair, his jaw a hard line. Then, his voice, low and roughened by fatigue and adrenaline, cuts the heavy silence. "You should let me take you out once this is all over." The sentence hangs there, more substantial and dangerous than any of the shadows around you.
