Summary
Like this, silent and at repose, he would make a most becoming subject for a painting— she can’t help but admire the gentleness of light on his long lashes, down the pale line of his neck. Only then does she seem to notice how kind-featured he is.Soft, in a world of harsh angles and hard paving stones, of black smoke and blacker lungs. It saddens her, that shape of a promise impossible to keep. Makes her glad, too, that he would drop the pretence and let her see him for what he is.
[Hildi meets Crown Prince Orso, who does her a good turn.]
