Jonathan Moeller - The Ghosts 08 - Ghost In The Mask - Plot & Excerpts
Her black magus’s robe was unflattering, and Rania Scorneus would not wear jewelry. Nor would she trouble herself with makeup. The end result made Caina look stark and forbidding, a woman of ice robed in black. Though Caina found she missed the gowns and jewels she wore as Sonya Tornesti. She liked wearing them…and, more, she liked wearing them when Corvalis could see her. What was she doing, masquerading as a magus in Calvarium? She had a life that suited her in Malarae, and…But she remembered Jurius laughing as Dust Shadows rose from the corpses of his victims. That was reason enough. Caina nodded to herself, pushed aside her doubts, and went to join Corvalis and Muravin. ### The carriage came to a stop in the central square of Calvarium, and Caina climbed out and looked at the magistrates’ hall. It resembled an ancient Caerish chieftain’s hall, likely because it had once actually been a Caerish chieftain’s hall. In most towns of the Empire, the local magistrates conducted business in basilicas built in the Imperial style.
