I LAUGHED. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I had laughed in many ages, and the sound startled me and, I could tell, frightened him. When the laughter eased, I said, “So I was not enough for you. Immortal Faerie that I am, glorious queen, beautiful beyond the description of poets and rhymes. I was not enough to keep you close, but you will love this woman of dust? You will love this decaying mortal?”

He did not meet my eyes. But he said, “I love her.”

“Why?” I demanded. “Why her? Why not me?”

“Because,” he said in the gentlest, most tender voice I had ever heard, “when I look at her, I see the light of my home shining clear and bright in her eyes.”

“What is her name?” I asked.

“Klara,” he replied.
