The Windrose Chronicles 1 - the Silent Tower
“The journey to the Tower from the marsh had restored the Bishop to her usual equilibrium-she had begun quarreling with Salteris before they were halfway there. As he leaned against the stone arch that led into the guardroom from the passage, Caris could hear them at it still. Before him, in the jumpy light of a dozen torches, shadows looming huge on the fire-dyed wall, he could see the forms of Antryg and the captain circling like cats. The captain's loose black jacket and the shirt beneath and... Antryg's trailing robes and beard were blotched with dark patches of sweat; their wet faces caught the yellow glare of the light as if they'd just doused themselves in a rain barrel.
The mad wizard, Caris was interested to note, didn't wear his spectacles for the bout, but he moved unerringly and with a dancer's grace. Caris had worked with the captain of the Tower once in the previous week; he was a huge Church sasennan, taller even than Antryg, fat and flexible and capable of crushing an opponent beneath the weight of his rush.MoreLess
