Ochobu. She brought with her a slender, young partraka<br />

with ears like jug handles. In Aly's magical Sight<br />

he, like Ochobu, blazed with his magical Gift. This<br />

would be the mage who had laid all the fresh spellwork<br />

on the house.<br />

“Aly, this is Ysul,” Ulasim told her, pointing to the<br />

new man. “Another mage with the Chain. He will live<br />

here, to help keep our ladies doubly safe.”<br />

“He is mute,” Ochobu said tartly as she sat. “King<br />

Oron's torturers did that when he was small. So don't<br />

go trying to talk his ear off just because he's<br />

defenseless.”<br />

Aly shook her head. She'd known wolverines with<br />

more diplomacy than Ochobu. Then she grinned. Ysul<br />

was using military hand-sign code to say I'm not<br />

defenseless.<br />

Don't tell Ochobu, Aly hand-signed back, her<br />

movements concealed by the arms of her chair. She's<br />

happy because she thinks she just insulted me.
