The Magic Council (The Herezoth Trilogy) - Plot & Excerpts
The king told Vane, “I don’t trust myself not to slaughter Dorane on sight. Besides, there are matters here that demand my attention. You know my bargaining points where each kidnapper’s concerned.” The two had spent the previous afternoon discussing them. “Get this settled, won’t you? Once and for all.” So Vane met up with Zacry at Yangerton’s prison. Two jails in two days: he had never experienced anything like it, and hoped never to again. Yangerton’s prison was more similar to Podrar’s than Vane expected, it being a converted palace. The visiting rooms, the secure conference room, and even, Vane suspected, the cells and guards’ quarters had more space without seeming any airier, any bit more cheery. A lighter stone sat in the walls, but one just as drab, with the same eerie lanterns fixed to it. One of the greatest differences was a square table in the room where Vane awaited the Enchanted Fist. Zacry, still posing as a guard, was one of the men who escorted the prisoners and the only man in uniform to stay behind.
