The door remained unopened. Bliss reached for the knocker and the sound of it echoed through the street. There was still no reply and the Doctor was becoming quite irritated. In a sudden fit of fury he had raised a hand to force the door but at the last moment held back: inside the bolts were pulled, a mortise lock turned. His fingers curled into a fist as the door opened.

‘Do you really think they are so stupid,’ he hissed, ‘that you may let me stand openly at your door?’

The masked man before him made the slightest of shrugs.

‘You can stand where you please, uh Bib. It is no matter to me whether you are seen or unseen. Come in.’

Zaras turned stiffly and led the way into the house.

‘I have not fed for some time, Doctor, and this body is suffering the consequence. Have you brought me anything?’

They entered a well-lit drawing room.

‘Yes, but my supply is running low. Can you not use more traditional means?’

‘It is difficult without Franner and Creel. I had thought they would be here by now. It was… inconvenient to me that they had to go.’

Bliss was in no mood to be rebuked. ‘It was important at the time and I had no one else.’

‘But seven days, uh Bib! See what it does: this atmosphere is ruining me.’
