The first time he kissed her was in a dark, dusty corner of the kitchen, behind a great clay oven.
The second time was on the stairs in the high north tower. Through tall window slits they could see patches of yellow and orange field broken by winding river, stretching below them. The third time was in the courtyard, his back pressed tight against the stone well, while down in the darkness the old warped wooden bucket, hanging by a chain, swung back and forth, hitting against the sides, knock-knock. Galan was in love with her. Her name was Sarei. The Lady Sarei. Her face was young and bright, her hair straight and black. She lived with her seven older brothers in a dark fortress at the edge of the world. "I hate it here," she whispered into his ear, then glanced back over her shoulder toward the keep, where her brothers were feasting. "I hate them." Her seven brothers. "They're horrible," she said. "Ugly and cruel and they mistreat me. I'm nothing to them." Galan followed her gaze, back to the keep.
