by Bright Eyes, just loud enough to annoy Nicolette –All right, I won’t do that to you. For one thing, I know you like the bloody stuff. For another, it’s not accurate to say I killed them all. Besides, the way I worked it out was pretty sweet, and I want you to admire me, Future Me. My undisclosed location was several hundred yards down a sharply-sloped shaft in some old copper mine not far from what remained of Tolerance. (I don’t actually know if it was a copper mine, but it was some kind of mine, and copper sounds plausible, right?) Somehow I’m more and more comfortable in caverns and dark places lately – imagine that. I was down there in the deep black, so dark even my night-eyes weren’t any help, because that’s a spell that sucks up every stray photon of light and puts it to use, only there was no light in the mine in the dark. I conjured a little red flower of light and stuck it on top of Nicolette’s birdcage so I wouldn’t go totally crazy and lose track of where I ended and the darkness began.
