‘Where are you heading, Farden?’ Mithrid shook her head and reached for the wine. ‘Off to make things worse?’ she asked.

His shout was already half-lost in the crowds. ‘Maybe!’

Irien shook her head as she watched Farden leave. ‘I don’t know how you’re not grey in the head being around that mage.’

Durnus beat Mithrid to an answer, staring at her while he spoke. Whatever he and Farden had done the night before, Durnus was full of spit and energy, walking taller oncer more. The mage was quite the opposite.

‘She has not known him long enough, milady,’ he explained. ‘Farden might work in chaotic and brutal fashion, his emotions might rule him, but his heart is pure. It is because of that emotion his magick runs so deep. Never have I seen a man care for his country or people, or justice as much as he does. Method to a madness, so to speak,’ Durnus told them as he also reached for a cloak.

‘And where are you going?’ asked Mithrid. ‘Cathak threatened all our lives to get to Farden.’

‘I need to see a man about a minotaur,’ said the vampyre, already beyond the balcony. ‘And I would like to see them try me.’

‘Curious creatures aren’t they?’ Irien smirked as she turned her attention back to the Viscera. An intermission was in session. Servants ran around the arena throwing fruits into the lower crowds.

‘Which? Vampyres or mages?’

Irien grinned, reaching for the wine flagon in Mithrid’s hands. ‘Men.’
