By the time Deni reached the passages skirting the south wing, Balfair and Sincade were already unravelling the chain from the main door. She pressed herself into the shadows and listened as closely as she could. Balfair instructed, “Be ready to shut it all down at a moment’s notice. I want the Lance ready, but no sign that we’re working in there. Drape a canvas over the entrance. Give them no reason to enter.”

“And where will you be?” Sincade said.

“Away from here. They’ll ask about my location, they won’t consider yours. Besides, I have to speak with Deni.”

“Do you think it was her?” Sincade asked.

Balfair was quiet.

“No, she doesn’t know anything,” he said. “But she could still talk when they come.”

“She has nothing to say,” Sincade said.

Deni tensed. She had plenty to say. She was saying things all the time. Just not to them. Not out loud. How dare he. How dare they. This was exactly the problem.

She shook herself out of her thoughts, catching the last words the engineer said: “…when sacrifices may be made. It is worth it.”

Deni closed her eyes. No more. She had already sacrificed enough, with her blood and tears soaked into the tiles of this decrepit mansion. It was their turn.
