I suppose if Akkarin came to rescue you all the time, people would say you weren't a good choice. The novices are all jealous of you, not realising that they would be in the same situation if they were the High Lord's favourite, even if they are from the Houses. Any novice he chose would be a target. Always expected to prove themselves.

It was a day-by-day record of a Guild much younger and smaller than the current one. After several pages, she had grown fond of the record-keeper, who clearly admired the people he was writing about.

Jayan found teaching both frustrating and rewarding. It depended on the apprentice. Some were attentive and talented. Some were not.

Our army is retreating. The Sachakans are following. They will be here soon. We must be ready. The servants are bringing horses." He paused and frowned at one of the apprentices. "Stop wating time asking stupid questions and see if your horse is here!" he snapped. He turned and pointed. "You! Arelenin. I can see someone bringing your horse. Yes, I'd hardly miss that ugly beast if it were on the other side of the country. Go and get it."

There was no fast and painless way to perform an amputation, Tessia knew. Not if you did it properly.

It always seems easier to do nothing, when the harm is don elsewhere," Dakon said. "They know their young ones will either learn a lesson and limp home - or die and stop being a problem - or prove successful. The worst that could happen is a bit of a diplomatic hiccup in history."

We have more in common than I thought, he mused wryly. He liked the idea that, if either of them ever fell from grace, the other might be there to offer support. It's always easier to become friends with someone you have something in common with. I just hope it doesn't take some socially disastrous fall before she'll consider the possibility I might be a friend.

The healers' university looked exactly as Tessia had imagined. Her father had described it as an 'old but strange building that has adopted and absorbed surrounding houses as opportunity and funds allowed'. It sounded confusing and intriguing, and it was.

It had surprised and impressed Tessia to learn that Everran and Avaria owned two wagons, one for their own everyday use and one kept for visits to the Royal Palace. Since the journey to the palace consisted of half the length of two streets, it seemed frivolous to own a vehicle especially for it.

He watched her drink the soup. "You're getting bored with me, aren't you?" She smiled slyly. "No. I have never found you boring, Mirar. In fact, I've always found you a little too interesting for my own good." He chuckled. So. There it was. The invitation. He had noted the way she sometimes looked at him. Thoughtful. Curious. Admiring. The spark of attraction was still there for her. Was it for him? He thought back to other times circumstan..

Most people would not open a door unless they knew what lay beyond, and even if they opened the door by mistake, they would find an uninteresting room beyond.

Todos somos esclavos, ama --replico Vora--. Las mujeres. Los hombres, a su manera. No existe la libertad, solo diferentes tipos de esclavitud. Incluso un ashaki ve constrenidos sus actos por las restricciones que imponen la tradicion y la politica. Y el emperador es aun menos libre que ellos.

Sonea era mas cinica. Habia observado que las mujeres solian pasar por alto cuando estaban enamoradas porque, en algun momento, el amor tendia a desvanecerse. Era mejor casarse con un hombre que te gustara y en quien confiaras

When Tessia and Jayan were served a large, fat rassook each, Jayan had smugly commented that Tessia certainly had a way with villagers and he would not be surprised if she could charm pickpockets into putting money into her wallet.

Tyvara shook her head. "I knew this would happen. I didn't want to become attached to you because I knew, if I did, something would take you away." Suddenly he couldn't stop smiling. She looked up and frowned. "What's so funny?" "I love you, too," he said."
