Description

Having hastily finished his dinner, Hohenlohe has just about stepped into his villa's quarters for the night when Carnelian appears behind him without warning. "What are you doing here so late?" "You had worries, and I've just seen to them. I'm here to report in, of course." "Oh, I see." A gust of night air blows through the room, mile-long curtains fluttering restlessly. Having left his Spire for the moment so as to smooth out tomorrow's parade, the Count feels the air faintly nip at him. "Hold on, what made you–no, let me restate. Can you even be that quick?" "Of course." "Really? Well, I'll make one more check, just on the off-chance. Given tomorrow's parade, you–" "Off-chance? Don't you have faith in me?" Much like one would enrage at a habitually interrupting bodyguard, the Count stomps his feet forcefully. "How could I have faith? Are you to say an instrument can be so quickly learned? What, did you take up the triangle?" "You surmise well." "Do I now? You plan to show up to my parade tomorrow tinkling on the triangle?!" "Exactly. And by the way, all triangle lovers take grave offense at your words." "You–! You might recall I had every other bodyguard playing music at last year's visits, while you alone stood there doing nothing, making us all look like fools!" "And you insisted I act like a member of the bodyguards last month, when an envoy came from the next city over. If you'll remember, when he affixed a tapping device under the table, I drew my weapon across his throat by reflex before remembering I was holding a trumpet, not a sword." "Carnelian!!" "I'll be blunt–looking after you takes enough of my energy. I'm certainly not disposed to learn an instrument for you." "I don't care! I demand you learn! I demand it!" The Count glares at his unrepentant attendant with all the temper of a small child, ultimately not so furious as to pounce at anything–he simply slams the door as he leaves. But the moment the door latches shut, Carnelian places a firm grip on the dagger at her waist. "Alright, you behind the curtain. Come out." "An assassin sent by the diet, I presume? And you really think that once the Count is dead and his cousin succeeds the title in all his ambition, he'll grant the Stadtrat autonomy?" "No. Forget that. Here's a different question. Would you prefera[sic] sophisticated death, or one more to-the-point?" "...Well, if you won't say anything, can I take that as the dealer's choice?" The assassin barely has time to twitch before the curtain becomes a pair of lips, the bookshelves jaws, and the candles incisors. One massive chomp on their windowside prey is followed by chewing, then a swallow, and finally a mess all over the floor. "It's over now. Won't you come in?" The Count pokes his head through the door to confirm that all danger has passed, then musters all his courage before entering. "Very swift to react, and on-point with the improvisation as well. Quite well done." "I don't need you complimenting me." The two of them stare at the villa bedroom, a scene of chaos and scraps and fresh blood, neither breaking the silence. It isn't the first unsuccessful assassination attempt, but all previous ones have taken place at Count Hohenlohe's Spire, which is hardly dilapidated enough to let would-be murderers as far as the sleeping quarters. After a spell, the Count breaks the tension. "Carnelian." "What? I can't exactly use my Arts to clean rooms." "And I wasn't expecting you to." "Good call." "I wanted to ask, are you really not going to learn an instrument?" "Oh? So you are scared of losing face after all?" "As if! No, it's no more than a bit of curiosity. You–" The Count's face flushes red. He stammers silently. Eventually, having not said a word further, he turns to flee the bedroom. Carnelian shakes her head. The hyacinths by the head of the bed catch her eye. In front of them lies an implement nominally for self-defense, but hardly useful in practice, save for offering the Count a little mental assurance–a dagger. Though yet to nestle in anyone's flesh, blood has dyed its blade a deep carmine.

Description

萨尔贡语里有个描述情绪的词，专指“他乡遇故知的惊喜”。可见“乡音”对萨尔贡人的意义。然而，当蜜蜡突然出现在莱塔尼亚的餐馆里，并坐在姐姐面前时，卡涅利安的手缓缓从耳朵里的通讯终端上放下，脸上闪现的是难得的惊慌。 “姐姐，惊......惊喜？嘿嘿......” 卡涅利安飞快地关闭了话筒。 蜜蜡没有忘记姐姐曾关照她不要来莱塔尼亚，她心虚地解释自己是顺路经过。一戳即破的谎言，卡涅利安甚至能想到是哪个罗德岛干员多管了闲事。 她当然不会那么扫兴。她对安克赫娜嘘寒问暖，了解她旅途的趣闻，她们的餐桌氛围温馨和谐，耳朵里则是另一番景象。 “头儿！怎么不回话了！目标快走进法阵中心了！” “是潜伏的餐馆里出事了吗！” “姐姐，你耳朵里好像嗡嗡的？” “哦，音乐而已。莱塔尼亚人的音乐还不错，你会喜欢的。” “头儿！你人呢！” 卡涅利安起身：“唉，音乐有点吵。我去调整一下。” 姐姐提起的“音乐”令蜜蜡不自信起来。相隔数年才重逢，陌生的国家带给了姐姐变化：早已习惯了华丽曲调的她，还会喜欢“那个”吗？她抓紧了包裹，羞于打开。 卡涅利安回来了，快得出奇。她摘掉了通讯终端，脸上总算有了放松的笑容。 “姐姐，音乐呢？” “结束了。有更重要的东西等我品味——” 一个来自家乡的词，代表一种情绪。这个词配合卡涅利安令人安心的眼神，好似某种源石技艺，将蜜蜡的担忧驱散了。她终于从包里掏出了“那个”——一个朴素的萨尔贡叉铃，与莱塔尼亚格格不入。 “哦！我还以为你早就丢了它！这可是我唯一玩得转的乐器。” 叮铃，叮铃，是来自家乡的温暖而质朴的声音。 “真怀念。还记得吗，小时候我总拿着它哄你。” “姐姐在莱塔尼亚的事，一定很重要。” “什么？不，我只是......” “记得偶尔停下来，听听它，好吗？偶尔......你忙到来不及回信，没时间回家乡的时候，都听听它......” 卡涅利安放弃了嘴硬，目光变得柔软。她想说：好吧，我会记得回信，也会尽快回到家乡。但她并没有说出不知何时才能兑现的承诺，而是拿起了叉铃轻轻摇动。 真奇妙啊，在这莱塔尼亚的餐馆里，好像听见了萨尔贡的树叶在沙沙作响。她和安克赫娜，总称这些声音是森林在奏乐。她们曾经很喜欢。
