“Will I be told everything in this place of revelation?” he mused, tracing his hand over the inscription. He noticed the word — Belmundus — also etched in the floor tiles. “Will you tell me about this other one?”

“He is best forgotten.”

Arquebus observed this proceeding with scant patience. Once Little Bird had settled the tray, Arquebus nodded him off and came to the platform, waving the manuscript.
