The Tams' house at New Mayfair is slightly less tidy than usual -- necessarily, with a reluctant invalid occupying the sitting room full-time. But the cleaners still know their job, and appearances must be kept up. Which is why the upstairs hallway, like all the rooms except the one Gabriel is more or less living out of, is still ruthlessly and tastefully tidy.

There are, of course, doors in this house that even the cleaners and security force don't know about.

Magic will do that kind of thing.

"I am not particularly prone to being a hot-headed fool."

Not since Lisen, at the least.

He nods, just once.

"I appreciate the plural."

This time Galadan simply raises both eyebrows, lips twitching.

"You object?"

"They so often are."

His smile this time is almost involuntary.

Almost.

"For those capable of following."
