Penwyth Castle

LORD VELLAN, CHESTDEEP in his bathing tub, said to Crispin, “What do you mean there’s another band of men outside the walls? Another brainless ass is here to claim Merryn? But the king himself sent Sir Bishop of Lythe.”

“It seems this man doesn’t know about that, my lord. He’s got at least twenty men, and he’s demanding to come in. He’s demanding to wed Merryn.”

“He can’t do that,” said Lady Madelyn. She stroked the soapy sponge down her husband’s back, thinking his bones were too thin and meager now. She could feel the bones through the sponge. On the other hand, it was no surprise, for she’d felt his bones through the sponge for more years now than she could remember.

Lord Vellan ran his fingers through his wet, grizzled white hair, his magnificent hair still so thick, his pride. “By all the arrows that pierce Saint Sebastian, it is madness, their leader is mad. Aye, I will come.”
