The Straits Of Galahesh: Book Two Of The Lays Of Anuskaya - Plot & Excerpts
She spoke with him for two hours, and he was nearly ready to pull Bahett from the masquerade, but Atiana begged him not to. She didn’t want anything to seem amiss, especially since she and Yalessa hadn’t been harmed. When she finally made it back to her rooms, she downed a small carafe of warmed vodka to calm herself before bed. She did manage to fall asleep, but when she awoke a short while later the effects of the liquor had passed and she found herself wide awake. The words of the man from the willow kept playing through her mind. They had been laced with truth, and yet each time she worked it through, she decided he was lying. Clearly he was an agent of the Kamarisi, or Arvaneh herself, set to turn her against Bahett and his allies. And still— A knock came at the door to Atiana’s apartments. Any trace of sleep vanished in an instant. The knock came again. In the outer chamber, Yalessa stirred and moved to the door. A soft click came, and the sounds of whispers drifted in to her.
