Michael J. Sullivan Quote
Royce eyed Hadrian with a skeptical expression. He’ll never manage the climb. Climb? Hadrian asked. The treasure room is at the top of the Crown Tower, Arcadius explained. Even Hadrian had heard of that. Even farmers in Hintindar knew of the Crown Tower. Supposedly it was the leftover corner of some ancient but legendary castle. I’m in good shape. A few stairs aren’t going to kill me. The tower is heavily guarded in every way, except against a person climbing up the outside, Royce replied, his eyes fixed on the long fang he continued to twirl. Isn’t that because … well, I’ve heard it’s sort of tall. The tallest surviving structure built by man, Arcadius said. Should I bring a lunch? Considering we’ll begin after dusk and climb all night, I’d suggest a late dinner, Royce replied. I was joking. I wasn’t. But I only ask one thing. What’s that? When you fall to your death, do so quietly.
