Sherwood Smith Quote
One of the others bore away Nessaren’s clothes, and the third opened a door for me and bowed; and I walked through, feeling like a real fool. I was afraid I’d forget about the train dragging behind me, trip, and go rolling down the stairs, so I grabbed fistfuls of skirt at either side and walked carefully after her.Ho, Mel! You look like you’re treading on knives. Branaric’s voice came from behind me.Well, I don’t want to ruin this gown. Isn’t mine, I said.He just grinned, and we were led down another level to an elegant room with a fire at one end and windows looking out over the valley.
