Her choice would have been to walk out and leave each of them to the mercy of the other, but the storm was still raging; she could die out there faster than in here. And besides--Essebai, the poison of the Empire, the consort of generations of wicked Emperors, none so vile as herself. Her deeds were tales to be told late at night, when the children were asleep and the grown folk left to listen and shiver. If there was any chance of Essebai's coming to power again--never mind how she could regain her powers as a bodiless head, if anybody could do it it would be Essebai--then Valmai could not let it alone. The gods knew what she could do, but there had to be something. And while she mused, she heard a little whispering sound, a little scratching sound like a twig in the wind against a wall, echoing in the culvert under the hoot of the wind.
