I got to the far end of the garden wall just as Alessan and Devin reached the near side
"Why?" Alessan asked sharply, wonder in his voice"You never use your magicWhy now?"
Erlein shrugged elaborately"I'd never seen all of you run anywhere like that before"I suppose I was carried away
Alessan was smiling again; he couldn't seem to hold it in for very longEvery few seconds he glanced quickly over at the bed, as if to reassure himself of who was lying there"Then what?" he asked
"Then I saw her in the window, and figured out what was happeningI used my magic to get over the wall and I was waiting in the cartier watches garden beneath the window"You sent an astonishing spell from so far, but you didn't have a chanceYou couldn't know, never having tried, but you can't stop someone falling that wayYou have to be beneath themAnd they usually have to be unconsciousThat kind of magic works on our own bodies almost exclusively; if we want to apply it to someone else their will has to be suspended or everything gets muddled when they see what is happening and their mind begins to fight it
Sandre was shaking his head"I thought it was my weaknessThat I just wasn't strong enough, even with the binding
Erlein's expression was oddFor a fake gucci watch second he seemed about to respond to that, but instead he resumed his tale"I used a spell to make her lose consciousness partway down, and a stronger one to catch her before she hitThen a last to get us over the wall againBy then I was completely spent, and terrified they would trace us immediately if there was a Tracker anywhere in the castleBut they didn't, there was too much chaosI think something else is happening back thereWe hid behind the main temple of Eanna for a time, and then I carried her here
"Carried her through the streets?" Alais asked"No one noticed that?"
Erlein grinned at her, not replica rolex ladies watch unkindly"It isn't that unusual in Senzio, my dear Alais flushed crimson, but Devin could see that she didn't really mindEverything was suddenly all right
"We had better get down into the street then," Baerd said to Ducas"We'll have to get Arkin and some of the othersRegardless of whether there are Trackers, this changes thingsWhen they don't find her body in the garden there's going to be an unbelievable search of the town tonightI think there will have to be some fighting
Ducas smiled again, more like a wolf than ever"I hope so," was all he said
"One moment," said Alessan quietly"I want you all to witness rolex watches ladies something He turned back to Erlein and hesitated, choosing his words"We both know that you did this tonight without any coercion from me, and against your own best interests, in every way
Erlein glanced over at the bed, two sudden spots of red forming on each of his sallow cheeks"Don't make too much of it," he warned gruffly"Every man has his moments of follyI like red-headed women, that's allThat's how you trapped me in the first place, remember?"
Alessan shook his head"That may be true, but it is not all, Erlein di SenzioI bound you to this cause against your will, but I think you have just joined it swiss cartier pasha seatimer freely
