Her perfume had intoxicated him; it was sweet and at the same time warm and earthy. It spoke to him of worlds beyond the palace, beyond even the magical and far-off places she so eloquently conjured with her conversation—something he had always longed for without knowing even what it was called. Roland breathed in her scent as they kissed, eyes shut to better enjoy this intoxication. When at last the kiss ended he found her smiling up at him, her own eyes shining with such pleasure that he had laughed like a child. No woman at court had ever smiled at him so.

Never in his life had Roland ever felt such desire for another human being. He wanted to kiss her again, to take her hand and run with her, to talk and laugh with her for hours. He wanted with enormous intensity to make love to her…

Then suddenly the bells in the palace chapel had rung midnight, and everything had shattered into shards and fragments. Roland remembered the stab of loss as Zelynda tore out of his arms, the sight of her running—with such surprising speed and grace—stumbling briefly, then running on.

He had found the slipper on the steps, still warm from her foot.

And so had begun his quest.

As a boy, he had devoured tales of knightly quests, undertaken by men pure of heart and motive for the sake of women of superhuman beauty and virtue. For Zelynda’s sake, he vowed he would be such a man. His quest, though, had led not to duels and battles with monsters, but to sitting rooms and endless, mindless chatter.

“Come on.” He clapped Sir Jasper on the shoulder as they left the merchant’s house.

“Let’s to the inn, and our beds. We have days and days of disappointment before us to relish.”
