Lily can’t breathe. She tries, mashes barley shafts to death in her struggle to get to her feet, slaps at her puckered cheeks trying to suck down oxygen. She feels she might drown despite solid ground. Who will find her? Will Duncan know where to look?

Lily stands a shoulder over the grain and presses fingers against her face. Breathe, godammit. Slowly she begins to feel the underlying structure, the familiar geography of cheek and bone, and she breathes, realizes she has been breathing the entire time. She focuses on what is observable, barn swallows diving across the surface of grain, her hair gummed against her neck with a malt residue. Lily waits. Her heart continues to be unreasonable. Maybe it’s the effect of that cannon, the clean and pitiful stack of bones in the cellar, but she suddenly understands what simple business it is to make a woman disappear.
