Blood in the Water
“Had Tathrin even arrived? Aremil longed to know but he was just as reluctant to seek Tathrin out in a battle. Distraction could be the death of his friend. Or Aremil might find him in the midst of something neither of them wished to share.
A blush warmed Aremil’s thin face. Had Tathrin any notion he’d seen him entwined with that whore in Relshaz? Aremil couldn’t tell. Since he’d learned of Carluse’s fall, Tathrin’s thoughts had resounded with his indignation at not being forewarned of Failla’s ...plan. Even her success did little to temper his ire towards Aremil and Reher, and even with Failla herself.
Ironically, whatever Aremil’s former doubts, her courage and commitment to saving Carluse from a massacre had redeemed her in his eyes. Whatever else he wished Tathrin couldn’t see through the inconvenient clarity of Artifice, he was glad his friend understood that.
Aremil sighed. It was his choice when to reach through the aether to Tathrin. Jettin had made it very plain he would initiate all Artifice.MoreLess
